Exactly.
Exactly.
Many still unfairly hold Sanders accountable for Clinton’s defeat in 2016, and his tendency to avoid certain niceties—singing the Democratic party’s praises, buttering up the press—made him an abrasive figure for some.
I hear you. I’m in natural perimenopause and have been very lucky: no hot flashes, no night sweats, no mood swings. Just random, bizarre periods that are mostly ceremonial at this point and...
I hate these people more than Trump supporters. They claim moral high ground while still being misogynistic pieces of shit.
God, this. I have a Dem friend who won’t shut up about how she was a “deeply flawed” candidate for reasons that “had nothing to do with sexism.” Which...isn’t true. It’s just not.
I agree, not only that we don’t know the shit that Donny would have pulled on him once in the general. Bernie may be very popular right now but that is because Trump and the Republican party never unleashed their wrath on him fully and they could have oh God they could have (although they will never hate him as much…
Can we put this whole Bernie would have won nonsense to rest? He likely would have done even worse than Clinton in turns of turning out the Democrat base, and to the extent he resonated with the white working class better than Clinton, he still wouldn’t have been racist and outsidery enough for them. They didn’t vote…
Or, “If You Want to be President, Don’t Have a Vagina”.
I just want to say I am tired of how much shit this woman has gotten from the left too. I have an aquaitance and he LOVES LOVES to shit on her continously whenever we talk about politics. He has a complete inability to move on. He always brings up the election and losing was her fault and Bernie would have won and…
Um… What? This is a non-issue, and comes off like a snobby crusade to prove you're a better parent than anyone who might go to a restaurant as an occasional treat, where they specifically *don't* have to force their kid to eat something "healthy."
This guy is a Democrat and likely could be swayed to the pro choice side, but no, not good enough.
Maybe if bernie isn’t being a hypocritical douche nozzle, it won’t be a big deal. Most democrats (establishment type that bernie hates) are pragmatists and bernie has railed against them for being pragmatists. He is ok with changing the definition of progressive so that he never has to be wrong. He didn’t think Ossof…
The only party unity he wants is coalesced around his narrow economic views while jettisoning the issues that affect many/most of the democratic base most urgently. Thanks, but no thanks.
“on one issue”
This is EXACTLY why I didn’t trust Bernie from day 1.
I’ve never been a massive fan of Hillary Clinton, but there’s no question she was far and away the most qualified and thoughtful candidate in this year’s election. What left me completely flummoxed though were the shit-ass excuses heard about why people weren’t going to vote for her. She might go crazy during her…
If Hillary Clinton were President, 8 year old American Nora al-Awlaki & 35 other women/children would still be alive today because she would not have greenlit a raid Obama previously refused to.
I am a parent and I tell other parents that it’s okay not to like all of parenting. In fact, it’s perfectly normal to loathe entire portions of it.
Shitty parents will be shitty, with or without substances (shitty sober parents, shitty drunks parents, shitty high parents) but I’ve witnessed parents that can drink moderately and smoke moderately and still parent just fine (and maybe even a little better than if they were stone sober.) I am not a kid person and I…
One thing no one tells you when you first have kids is how insanely boring the job can be. Reading the same books over and over again, watching the same videos, playing the little games that are absolutely vital to helping your kids develop so many skills are often mind-numbingly boring. In the early days, I had to…
