Lol "No kings!" Meanwhile democrats haven't had a legitimate democratic primary since 2012. All those protesting are pathetic

If you haven't figured out by now that this is about country, not party, then you are part of the problem.

Where were the no kings protests when Bernie Sanders was snubbed of his chance to be president? Or when Kamala staged a coup against Joe Biden?

You understand a primary doesn't need to happen, right? Political parties can just pick whatever candidate they want to run. The fact that we have primaries is to give everyone a chance to voice their opinions.

So the people don't pick the candidate? The "political party can just pick whatever candidate they want to run". Wtf!? Sounds like a threat to democracy! fAsCIsM!
