“Will some of the lesss corrupt Democrats even consider switching to Republicans as the Democrats will seem like a dirty word come mid terms and no one will want anything to do with it.”

It’s THE SYSTEM. Good people who run for office as Democrats and actually care about the country are simply WEEDED OUT very early. Either they don’t get any significant money, or they get Primaried out, or both. So all that’s left is the HATE AMERICA bunch at the higher levels of the Democrat Party.

And it’s not just them - Republicans are just as bad, in fact, probably worse. Think about it - the Republican base wants SERIOUS border security, which to them (i.e., us) means building the wall - and by HUGE MARGINS. But when the 17th Republican to announce their run for office, Trump, states that he will build the wall, what is the reaction from the other 16? They want TRUMP strung up and are adamant that he doesn’t represent the party.

So what’s the problem here when I can walk into any rural diner in, say, Michigan and find a conservative willing to put his neck out and even run for office on building a wall - yet 16 of 17 candidates consider the wall a HATE CRIME? Well, like the Dems, the answer is at the lower levels - you want money from the Cooks, for example, to run for state office, you had better be for OPEN BORDERS - and that applies to virtually all other major Republican donors. So you get a bunch of 16 of them who despise any effort to build a wall.

Still waiting for a Democrat with a shred of dignity to come forward and stand against their party’s corruption. Stand against Pelosi and Schumer and make history.
