The way Dems have handled Elon’s presence and work at DOGE has probably sealed my fate as a 3rd party or GOP voter indefinitely. I can’t imagine voting for a democrat after how I’ve seen them behave this year.

My general views align more closely to views of oldschool moderate democrats, but after watching Dems purposely try to destroy the biggest and most impactful clean energy company in America, I just have no trust that anything they say they believe in is actually real. If it was, the outcomes would override anything else. But they didn’t with Tesla. Their desire to hate one guy was more important to them than reducing GHG emissions and accelerating the USA towards a sustainable future. It showed me how weak and childish democratic leadership has become.

They spent the early 2000s telling me the planet was on the verge of death, and now in 2025 I watch them sell their 0 emissions cars for gas guzzlers while trying to convince me it is righteous. Pure insanity.

Will take a total purging of these sorts of people from DNC before I’d be able to trust them again.
