    You want nothing to do with Hogg or his push to primary useless incumbents. And your only stated reason is because he’s not pro-school-shooting enough.

    Sounds like a purity test to me.

      Nah, he’s still a Democrat, even though his position conflicts with the electorate. As are you.

      The “test” here isn’t one of purity. Here, the test is whether he can represent that electorate. He can’t.

      His position on gun control is the most obvious example, but it’s not the only one. He idolizes Pelosi and Clinton, and wants to replace “useless incumbents” with Baby Nancy and Baby Hillary.
