Democratic always'. That is what will save us. Roosevelt voters gave us huge margins in Congress and the presidency as well...not always but enough to keep the righties at bay. Once we lost them, we needed a new generation to step forward. But it didn't happen. We argued among ourselves...small p vs whoever...and it culminated in 2016 where many who are allies or even some who were Democrats did not vote for Hillary Clinton. The courts were ignored. An evil wicked man was elected and now our Republic is on life support. we must fully support all Democrats in every election in order to stop the Republicans from destroying everything that is good about this country. This fight will be won or lost at the ballot box and the Republicans are winning right now. It could take years.
