Re: Democrat 2020
That poll is wild man.In other news, this Buzzfeed poll has half of Democrats self-labelling as "socialist" or "democratic socialist". It also finds a quarter of Republicans self-labelling so.
Important caveat: all those polled were Millennials.
If these results are reproducible, it could be good or bad for us.
Positive: The possibility to weaken the Republican base with fiscal liberalism vs. social conservatism.
Negative: Social conservatism wins out and the GOP becomes genuinely representative of its constituency, adopting a Strasserite plank (or worse).
Regardless, very interesting that a quarter of Republican-sorted millennials would count themselves as socialists.

My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.
I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.
