I've got a bunch of people I know who told me "I voted for Trump during the primary in order to sabotage the Republicans".

When I asked why they didn't just back a stronger Democrat, most thought Dems already had their person picked out so their primary vote didn't matter.

Kind of horrifying that this is the state of the "pro-Democracy" party's internal selection process.
