    As opposed to… A straight, white, old, rich, cis-gendered, moderate male? That was our last president, and he didn’t get reelected. They’ll attack and demonize and exaggerate no matter what. The “appeal to both sides” approach has failed spectacularly, every single time. The only options left are to fight for progress, or roll over, and ignore as millions of people are harmed. I know what I’m choosing…

    • People keep saying that the Republicans have a magical ability to sink a politician by “demonizing” them in order to convince themselves that Hillary Clinton wasn’t a shitty candidate.
