What if there was a certain someone who just by mentioning this person's name could cause a

MAJOR UPROAR in the liberal and progressive and Democratic Party community, and ONLY in that community.

What if this person knew very well their actions and comments were causing the "left" in America to be in a constant state of uproar, disagreement and anxiety and yet not only did nothing to make it better but everything possible to make it worse?

What if that was happening?

What could we do if that were to happen? Would we even be able to TALK about it?

And vetting is happening. If you take some time searching you will see an onslaught of factual information that is going to be brought forward on day one. It's going to be ugly. Who would have thought that if one works to destroy solid coalitions that those coalitions would fight back.

In this "scenario" I mention what would really be frightening would be if this "fictitious" person I am describing were to have somehow grabbed the minds and hearts of millions and millions of young folks, many of them first time voters.

In this pretend scenario that I outline, that would be the most frightening part for me. Well meaning people who do not yet understand how simple yet punishing the 2 party system is.
