Democratic Primaries

I think some maybe are afraid of getting primaried if they don't fall in line.
However, I disagree with this blanket opinion.
I think they agree with the Con for the most part.

(23,003 posts)I just wonder it's just pure racial hate or if it's because they don't want to share the wealth with middle or lower class and there are more minorities in those areas because of systemic racism and misogyny in this country? It's easier to exploit & steal from people if they are subhuman, so that's where the repug party consistently goes because stealing everything for the rich is their game. I'm white, so could have this part wrong? But if so, explain their antipathy to women.

(115,280 posts)They are afraid of being primaried and they are also afraid of his hostile tweets; once you make it to Congress one your main tasks is making sure you stay there and they don't want Fatfuck45 pissing on their campfires for "disloyalty." But the reason they want to stay in Congress, apart from the usual ego and greed, is that they agree with most of what Trump does, especially with respect to abortion, immigration and the appointment of judges - which relates back to their fear of being primaried by someone even more trumpy than they are. So it's really part of the same underlying motivation.
