have been hallucinating about?

Those "two mirages" are aspirational qualities of the future that Democrats actualize to move the country toward, imo.

That Newsom fights fire with fire is no contradiction, and I expect to donate to him when he announces he's running for president.

Don't you believe Joe Biden was right when he said
a) "America is an idea" and
b) "We have already proved there's nothing, nothing we can't accomplish when we do it together" ?

I can't get with the negativity I'm seeing toward the party around here.
