    Wait, Obama is progressive now? The DrOnE StRiKe guy? I think you have a selective memory.

      The difference is I’m talking about campaigns and you’re talking about actual governance…

      I thought the only thing that mattered is beating trump?

      In that case, someone that just portrays themselves as progressive is better. Not as good as a real progressive, but still better than a moderate at getting elected.

      But still, more progress happened between 08-16 than 16-24…

      That’s not exactly a unique take, do you disagree with it or just trying to ignore it?
