The democRATs are trying to move to the left of the communists. How do you compromise with THAT?

I agree with you.

Back in the day, when I used to call myself a libertarian, I had to explain to people why I thought democrats were a bigger threat than republicans. That is because democrats have socialists in their tent, and republicans have neocons. As selfish as this is, and I admit it, starting forever wars does not affect me personally as much as socialism does.
But democrats would protest so heartfully how socialism doesn’t run the democrat part and they are just a few fringe characters. I could not penetrate this delusion because back then, democrat leadership and democrat politicians would conceal their marxist proclivities.

Not anymore. It is out there for anyone to see.

Of course, the hardcore democrat voters don’t care. Many will still deny it. Others actually subscribe to wealth and property confiscation.

The trick is, which is on topic here, convincing the rational and critical-thinking democrats who they are aiding. The old blue dogs, particularly the rustbelt blue-collar democrats have already switched.
People like Dershowitz are more of the coastal and/or beltway democrats are harder to win. You have to ware them down with reality.
