MODERATORS
It is easy to forget he is a Democrat. My first reaction was 'maybe this will split the Trump vote' -- though that still might be true.
If Dems are oranges and Reps are literal shit. He'd be like a freshly picked mushroom.
It's gonna taste like shit, it might kill you, but I guess you could say it's closer to an orange than literal shit, debatably.
But he's anti-vax. Or at least a "vaccine skeptic." While there are certainly those on the left who are anti-vax, I'd say that's more typically a position of the right (though of course not all are anti-vax). And he's not quiet about it either.
