    Fundamentally the right is too comfortable with the notion they don’t have to coexist with us because they have all the power, numbers, and immunities. They don’t want peace because they think they can easily win a war.

    If you want them to negotiate and share power again you have to make them afraid of losing the country to a secularist progressive hegemony if they don’t.

    if democracy is rule by the people then by letting the corporations and interest groups run amok we are no different to the weak kings who let the nobility do as they please while the crown weakens

    >not respecting the social contract of the Constitution

    The constitution is real, the social contract is not.
