The corollary to their “people like their insurance” argument is “what about unions that fought for great insurance?! Do you want to take that away from them?!” I’d really to see Sanders or Warren counter that with what I dub the “shoot the hostage defense:” unions have to fight for health insurance because it’s levera…

So the military-industrial complex will suffer at the expense of me getting really good health-care? Sign me the fuck up!

Exactly. If kids die, your mission was a fucking failure.

It definitely will. I think this is his first non-controlled public appearance since becoming President, likely to avoid this exact scenario. This will play 24/7 on CNN, MSNBC, and Fox News. Dude is gonna be pissed.

Rich people sincerely believe they earned everything they have.

Doesn’t help that the common conception of “middle class” is too broad. And everybody making over, I dunno, like $150k in household income should see a net increase in taxes larger than what they receive in additional benefits, sorry. Time to take care of the poor.

Interesting that he is behaving like one himself now.

I say this as someone who also voted for her (and thinks she would have made a quite fine president): She is literally helping no one now and needs to go away.

I say this as someone who voted for her in 2016. That’s not fucking funny Hillary.

I really think that the longer you listen to Warren, the better she sounds. Every time she talks, I find myself vigorously nodding in agreement and smiling the warm smile of someone who finally hears a politician who wants to fix our problems.

Seriously, Warren is now leading in polls in Iowa, New Hampshire, and California. The surge is happening people! Voters are finally paying attention and are coming home to Elizabeth Warren.

Like or hate Hillary Clinton; at least she was studied and competent and prepared. Biden is just a fucking joke and an insult. Huge difference.

Sometimes it hits in the early 70s. For example, one of these hypothetical old people might confuse “Alabama” with “the Bahamas” and then spend a couple weeks saying he didn’t.

Guys.

Jeez, is there anything this broad won’t quit?

It's funny you mention the clarity of the 2nd amendment, yet everyone ignores the well regulated militia part... 

So you’re saying if people in Hong Kong all owned guns it would be different? Like maybe the Chinese government would somehow be too scared to crack down on them?

I’m sick of her throwing “being a mom” out there like it’s a job qualification.

I’ve been wondering constantly for the last two years what all these powerful people are so fucking afraid of. Mitch McConnell? He’s one of 100. Just because he’s the leader by title doesn’t mean they all need to vote in lockstep with him. Their fears are overblown, and it makes them look like cowards. It all fills me…
