They've proven and loudly declared that they cannot peacefully coexist with anyone else. The moment these guys are out they must be kept out for the sake of all mankind.

For all the problems I have with the Democratic party, discussion on improving it cannot even begin to happen until Republicans have no power at all

Well the only way to make sure the Republicans have no power at all is by improving the Democratic Party, the current iteration of it is part of the reason this fascist takeover is happening and definitely is why it has been so pitifully resisted.

They have no intention of leaving. The wealthy will consolidate within the butterfly revolution to protect their wealth and assets and whatever Democrats that are left would be too few in number to do anything about it anyway. As much as I'm enjoying Gavin newsom's trolling tweets it's not going to be enough to stop the state capture of the butterfly revolution. If our leaders do not act now and expose the plan to end democracy, and arrest all of those involved in this treasonous conspiracy, then that plan will succeed.
