Not voting against evil is indeed voting for evil and that is what the net majority did.

The minority doesn't have a charismatic leader to rally around so we don't have a "movement" that can fight back against the corruption at scale. Democrats need to stop taking the high road and start thinking "WWRD?" and out do them.

I meant Republicans more broadly. Whatever bad things Reagan did, it is a shadow on current Republican tactics.

Ah gotcha, now that I reread your comment it's obvious what you meant. My bad!

I mean, Reagan won 489 electoral votes and then followed it up with another 525, they could try doing some of that.
