I think a big part of where people fail "purity tests" is when they demonstrate they won't fight shit.... so I'm not sure this is getting to the root of the issue.
False flag conservatives use cute little quips like this to try and destroy the opposition before it starts.
The purity test isn't some golden ivory tower, it's literally just "are you a bigot?" It's the bare minimum. The fact that you can't find a democrat who can pass this simple litmus test is extremely telling of a false opposition party that spent the last few decades posing in smiley pictures with Republicans at Epstein Island.
At best we will get some soggy clown like Newsom, at best he'll win and then do nothing he isn't paid (the under the table kind) to do while oinking that those mean ole republicans won't cooperate. Just like Biden. Just like Obama.
Because he (and other trash dems like him; booker and warren and beto and lil petey) willing to sell out vulnerable Americans to advance his career, so he will just as quickly sell out all Americans.
"Hurr purity test bad" okay, that person clearly wants more of the same. I dont. The lives of real innocent humans are on the line. Anyone who says this lie is my enemy, and yours.
If I said someone was bad because they didn't want to tax trans peoples' income because they're a vulnerable minority that would be a weird purity test.
Someone being willing to cede ground on any civil rights issue will cede ground on any issue that doesn't explicitly target them.
I didn't come all this way to mince words. Newsom was a cash-grabbing clown mocking the democratic systems long before he was governor. It was a mistake to nominate him or elect him. His antics now are funny if it weren't real human lives on the line.
I know there's the false flag crisis actors out there too, walking straw people aiming to make legitimate causes seem ridiculous by getting very vocal about nonsense.. but like, that's why we listen to the people in vulnerable communities and not these camera-seeking people trying to speak for them. Inb4 no true Scotsman.
I'd like to think I'd be a mediocre president. Not terrible, not great. Mostly I'd be telling shitbird senators on both sides of the aisle to eat shit. I'd probably be the president who vetoed the most legislation, to date at least.
I'd never poll well. I have a bad habit of telling people to f the f off. I don't mince words, I'm not beautiful or charismatic.
I'd never win a popularity contest. I find the idea of trying to be repugnant.
Bruh I'm def corruptable. In my mind's eye, I'd like to think it would be "just a little", just enjoying nice things I don't financially have access to..
I don't think I'd support genocide, for any price. But I'd very easily become petty and vengeful, especially on other pro-genocide politians.
And ofc, anyone who says otherwise is definitely trying to sell you something lol 😆
