They ignore everything about Jim Crow Joe. Just all the horrific shit he's done and the millions of lives he's ruined, they just deploy this incredibly powerful see no evil field around one of the most destructive political actors of the 20th and 21st century in US politics and hold him up as a solution to the problems he literally enthusiastically caused. It's incredible.
Hot take - Liberal Democracy is a mind devouring horror from beyond the stars that destroys hope and turns it's victims in to mindless democrozombies. It's hilarious that the only people who believe in Democracy are the ones who constantly get fucked by it.
The US doesn't even have liberal democracy, the person with the most votes can lose an election relatively easily, it has no parliament, the courts are inherently political in their appointments at the highest level. The US is a republic with democracy taking a backseat to capital at all times.
Seriously, like actual political parties have mechanisms to discipline their members and hold them to a party line. That’s the whole point is to have them vote as a block.
They also have mechanisms to let the members decide on that party line, and on who runs the party. A body operating like the DNC would be flat-out illegal in a lot of other bourgeois states.

According to most European standards, the US also doesn't have actual parties.
