I listen to a podcast where people tell true stories. One not too long ago was about a cop who rescued two children from their father who had kidnapped them, abused them (and filmed them) and then also sold them to other people to abuse. It was a horrific story where he talks about the interaction with the kids while…

I’m seeing a whole bunch of GoFundMe campaigns for the victims. Here’s a thought...send your fucking medical bills to congress.

JEEBUS, tell them Bill Gates is worth 85.7 billion vs. Donald’s paltry 4.5 billion (supposedly).

“his base is unable to see past their hatred of minorities and foreigners”

I think there is something to be said for hyper-nationalism that is unsettling. I’m a veteran and I don’t understand the idol worship of the American Flag. I fully grasp the symbolism just not the idolatry.

Okay I see where you are coming from. I’m also glad that the DS acknowledge that even though they are growing they are not big enough to act without the Democratic Party. While I understand things aren’t perfect they actually need each other. And if nobody wins, we all fail.

As someone said in a thread on The Root today:

ALL OF THIS

It is not their fault. Sorry but it’s not. I’m a Clinton voter who did vote her in the primary. I would have voted Sanders had he been the nominee.

Not just voting...winning. You’ve got to win.

I completely understand what you are saying.

I know you’re not talking to me. However right now is the time to look for mid-term candidates you do like and try to get them on the ballot. Also...one person does not change the system. It takes many people and a unified effort. So being pissed off at the system is fine but people need to see the big picture.

It’s days like this that I am reminded of statements by people who were displeased by Trump but refused to vote for Clinton saying “maybe the system needs to fail”.

You are not alone.

Oh yeah, the “red pill” point of entry.

I too have noticed that contradiction.

Okay so a couple of things. There is a full-blown profile of this guy on the Southern Poverty Law website that is worth the read. There are some very interesting tidbits that I think illuminate who and what this guy is.
