From what I'm seeing on here, it's obvious some have the view that all Democrats are the enemy, and when one of them defects, they are still to be judged by their past acts as a Democrat/Liberal/Socialist Party supporter rather than given a chance to prove they are ready to follow their principles and not their former party's agenda.
Most members of both the GOP and Dems are reluctant to vote against the party's stance on issues because they NEED the party for reelection. Never bite the hand that feeds you.
She's shown she's willing to accept the consequences when she broke ranks with the party more than once, and on extremely high level, important issues. She was labeled a Russian Asset for not endorsing Hildebeast, and then took a couple months after Bernie was out of the race to endorse her.
If you expect a complete 180 reversal from her previous opinion or position on every single issue you ever disagreed with her before, I think you have set a standard for DNC defectors that most are never going to meet.
All defectors from the DNC deserve a chance to prove themselves. Otherwise, why should they even bother changing their political affiliations?
