I understood the point, but had a particular issue with labeling the Dems as allies. I like to think of it as more as choosing your opposition. They mostly do not align on the issues that I align with, even the glaring social issues of respecting the trans minority, or funding genocides.

Edit: All issues are important. Someone with a consistent moral compass would align with almost everyone on all issues. At the very least they could get behind the poor and homeless, because most of us are just an accident or disease away from being the same. Woman rights are another issues that everyone should be on board with, because half the population are women, and everyone else has a close relationship with at least one woman.
