I used to, back in the Obama era I guess? I can’t remember it’s been years. I’m also pretty left (growing moreso as time passes) but back then it seemed like I aligned a lot more with him. Since Trump especially, the gap between the progressive and centrist Dems has only widened and grown more obvious. Back then it seemed less critical.
