I used to know someone whose dad was this reactionary, red-faced guy who responded with anger to stuff all the time and was very easily perturbed by things not going his way. I could never figure out at the time (2015-2020) how this guy was such a die hard Democrat. Temperamentally he was like the bloviating conservatives that ruled the day when I was a kid.

But the Dems have largely become the party for ossified thinking and reactionaries. I hope that changes and we get some real dynamism across the whole spectrum of American politics.
