11 days agoThe fact that this is legal in the US is just another reason why US politics is completely fucked. The people didn’t just elect the person, they elected the party. If she no longer wants to be a Democrat then she should resign. Here in Australia, that’s what you do. You want to join the other party? you resign an then you need to be re-elected for the party your represent. It’s fucking insane to be able to just go, nup, I’m switching sides.
If that’s allowed, why don’t don’t smart, well spoken Dems campaign as Republicans to get the Maga votes then switch to Democrat after being elected?
Not much of a Manifesto…, that’s just a Note my dudes.
