    Clearly the answer is to run to the right of Trump. It’s not like you don’t want to.

      Lol still on your strawman huh.

      You know you remind me of a conversation I had with someone else. I told him that I wanted environmental policy, but that environmental platforms didn’t win elections. He couldn’t comprehend separating those out. To him you had to think that environmental policy was good and think it won elections. Or if you said environmental policy didn’t win elections, well to him that meant you personally didn’t want environmental policies. He had to group those two together. He was literally unable to separate them out. Well that’s exactly like you, just on different issues.

        Do tell, then. What wins elections? How do you intend to rephrase “just move to the right”?

          No response huh! Just (effectively) more strawman. Well think about it. At least try to break that “AND” operator you insist on other people.

            What, in your estimation, can Democrats do to win elections, and how does it differ from “just move to the right”?

              See? You’re still on your strawman, just in a different manner. You tried this before too.

              You want to pigeonhole me into saying drop policy this or that so that you can complete your strawman to think that I personally want ___ platform. You’re playing games.

              No real discussion can ever be had with you while you insist on your “AND” operator. At least try to break it.

                No. I want you to state a position about what you think it takes to win elections.

                No real discussion can ever be had with you while you insist on your “AND” operator. At least try to break it.

                Are you under the impression that repeating this will make it make sense?
