Huh, so fireworks and marching bands at a DC 4th of July Celebration, wow such innovater that President of ours (I guess he did find a way to try and make the 4th about himself). 

Yeah I don’t really get the rush to go all-in on single payer when a Bismarck style approach is both more widely used by peer states and by most accounts has a marked edge in efficacy and efficiency.

What don’t you remember how eager Mitch was to embrace Obama?

If we follow Mitch’s own let’s say “logic” that electing Obama was somehow a form of reparations (which obviously is not only offensive but just deeply stupid-- the man received more votes than anyone who has ever run for office and won two massive landslides but hey I guess he couldn’t have done it without what?) --

To be fair to Biden-- his constant “foot in the mouth” slips likely pushed the Obama Admin to roll out pro-LGBTQ policies at least a few months ahead of schedule. 

I mean, “inappropriate relationship” seems a bit light, the son could very well be a rape victim (depending on consent laws)— the “relationship” also adds a lot of context to the assault and really, really highlights one of the reasons why the “no harm he probably loved it” approach to boys and statuatory rape is

The incident with Shanahan and his wife could maybe be overlooked as the circumstances seem really murky at best (especially in light of the wife being the party that was arrested); but the son incident-- I mean on the one hand get the “protect your kid” instinct but on the other hand it’s not like the son was

Not to mention that even outside of abortion this is hugely problematic-- they want to conscience clause out of contraceptive services while at the same time receiving funds from a source that literally exists for the most part to fund contraceptive services-- it’s like getting money to provide vaccines, claiming that

Not even going to touch on the abortion and/or referral portion, my question is more how the fuck can you be a Title X grantee if you don’t provide contraceptive services-- family planning is literally the point of Title X. 

It doesn’t get better: The Incel fund

No it’s a pound but with between 5 and 25 superfluous consonants added

The hat "chef's kiss" 

Now I want Brewdog to respond with another beer.

I mean, couldn’t you also say the who do they represent about any candidate- if Pete can only represent White Guys, then do Warren, Klobuchar and Gillebrand only represent white women, does Corey Booker only represent Black men, etc? 

Um... If we blast Pete for his first job out of grad school shouldn't Warren being a corporate lawyer be an issue as well? 

What does this even mean? He’s literally married to another man. This really reads like the people who say Obama won because he “acted white”.

I mean to be fair this is basically saying unless you’re from a blue state and likely a deep blue state you should never run for the Presidency- I say deep blue for a reason, the compromises necessary for a Dem to win in say Indiana would likely make it impossible to win the nomination (or at the very least win the

Warren gets a decent amount of coverage, Harris is surprising to me, both her and Booker have been hyped (justifiably) for years and neither seems to get much coverage at all. 

There’s a slight chance against Biden, but that’s only because I think there’sha possibility he’d make Trump stroke out given he’s already stalker obsessed.

Eh.... Bill Clinton was freaking political prodigy- State AG at 31, Governor at 33, lost at 35, then Governor again from. 37 until he was elected President at 46, say what you will ablut his policies or his personal life but that’s a career that belongs in the 18th or 19th century not the relatively modern era.
