Infiltrating the right is more likely. I don’t put anything past these thugs.
I don’t know if infiltration is the right word. But, I do think that it was the influx of people abandoning the hard left democrat party in the 80s that made the rats even harder left, and the pubs soft progressives. In other words, the victories in the late 80s and early 90s sowed the seeds of our own destruction.
We just so desperately need to get some good old gridlock back in Congress.
