“They want us to spend money, and for what? For no message, no organization, no forward thinking. … The thing that’s clear to a lot of us is that the party never really learned its lesson in 2016. They worked off the same playbook and the same ineffective strategies and to what end?”

    Oh it’s not just extortion, it’s abusive.

    “We know that Trump and their administration are abusive and will kill people, but that’s why you have to accept us as we are without us needing to change one iota, because we’re not quite as abusive.” That sounds like an abusive controlling partner to me. “If you don’t do things my way, I’ll let really bad things happen to you.”
