Honestly, I think him keeling over before the primaries are finished will harm the country. One of his opponents could run basically unopposed, and they’re all pretty shit.
And the moderate conservatives that are sitting it out because trump will gladly show up and check the ® box for pretty much anyone else. Don’t know why it’s so tough to get people to show up and vote on the democratic side, the conservatives will show up and vote for roadkill.
Part of dagma and zealotry is undying faith in the cause despite everything in the face of it. Democrats merely act in self interests and with basic minimum empathy, we have no allegiance to anybody and we do not idolize our politicians.
I disagree with the statement that we lack empathy very much, almost to the point of being offended. I would say that democrats are empathetic to a fault. In fact I think that empathy is regularly mocked and abused by the parts of this population that see it as weakness and take advantage of democrat attempts at understanding and tolerating shit behavior. Democrats main fault, IMO, is their fractured nature due to all their special interests, all the groups they have empathy for and want to help. There are multiple “causes” they fight for/against. Environment. Poverty. Minorities. Education. Workers rights. Etc. And getting them to get together to vote for a candidate that may not check all the boxes for all the reasons is really fucking difficult, whereas all a conservative has to do is check off a couple boxes in the god/guns/country/‘murca boxes, or just say they wanna fuck up everything the libs do and everyone shows up to vote.
I said the opposite of what you interpreted. Democrats have at least the bare minimum amount of empathy for society to work, as opposed to Republicans who functionally lack empathy.
