Of course they do.
Of course they do.
Yep. And she has addressed much of her record during direct interviews, and they tend to be complex explanations that aren’t distillable into soundbites or memes.
Kamala Harris has not been given an opportunity to defend her record yet. Don’t let social media type cast her so soon. Because it’s rarely accurate. In fact, a lot of the attacks against Kamala Harris are coming directly from republican opposition research organizations. She’s the frontrunner and they will do…
Elizabeth Warren. No, she is not a socialist. But a socialist cannot win a general election imo.
Bernie isn’t Trump. But what he shares with Trump is his willingness to give vague grandiose promises without articulating an in depth understanding or complexity of the issues. And some of his supporters, like Trump supporters, can be horribly nasty, particularly on social media and have a cult like adulation of him.…
LMAO. White people Santa. Perfect descriptor.
Did you miss the part where I said I would vote for him if he wins the primary?
I should have been more clear - Bernie is the same as Trump as far as politicians go. He just stands on the platform we happen to agree with. He still is a grandstanding bullshitter who won’t engage or negotiate.
He’s the left’s Ron Paul, saying whatever his disillusioned base wants to hear without ever giving any specifics about how he’ll do it. All the while profitting from it in questionable ways. (I won’t even begin to consider him seriously until we see both his and his wife’s financials.) Not surprising that much of his…
If you wanna debate me on that I am open to hearing why that take is wrong.
Also Trumpish: his (lack of) tax returns and super-shady financial “ethics.”
Yeah I mean the same apparatus that was good enough for Barack was all of a sudden not good enough for Bernie. Fuck him and fuck all his whining Bros. When the writing was on the wall and it was obvious Barack was going to be the nominee, Hillary & Bill went to work getting him elected. What did this cranky old fuck…
I agree with a lot (most?) of what Senator Sanders espouses; I am also to the left of Senator Sanders. I find that he’s been on the right side of history for much of his career. My problem isn’t his positions (with a few exceptions); it’s in his unwillingness to admit mistakes, amplify the voices of POC (particularly…
Literally none of that is true.
My problem with Sanders is he is too much of a grandstanding bullshiter. He deals with not getting his way by shouting and pouting. Putting down those who don’t necessarily agree with his “burn it all to the ground” mentality.
If Trump and the GOP was afraid of losing to this man, they’d be attacking him endlessly. Instead, it’s radio silence. In fact, right wing blogs are now writing think pieces SUPPORTING Sanders. Time to step back and wonder why the right is so keen on this very old white guy who wasn’t vetted back in 2015.
I won’t vote for someone who won’t show his tax returns. I won’t vote for someone who hires Tad Devine to run his campaign. I won’t vote for someone who votes repeatedly to protect Russian oligarchs from accountability.
I mean, if polls were “proof” that someone would win, we’d have Hillary now (and probably Al Gore in 2000).
Look. I’ll vote for him if he wins the primary, just like I’ll grit my teeth and vote for Kamala (despite how much I hate her prosecutorial record) if she wins the primary because they are both not Trump. But I don’t not want to vote for him because I don’t like him. I don’t want to vote for him because I think he…
There is only one criteria by which to judge Sanders and every other current and likely Democratic candidate: can he beat Trump? Every other consideration is secondary.
