The only thing you’ve missed is 4 years of a President fruitlessly fighting against the Republicans AND Democrats in Congress to get any legislation enacted, instead of just fighting with Republicans…

I feel no such regret. Socialism in this country goes hand in hand with racism. The first unions were white only. The New Deal only got passed because there were statutes in place that kept non-white people from fully getting advantage of those programs (aka redlining).

Well it’s not like Daily Kos would ever ask Kasparov about socialism. And you know, it’s maybe not a bad idea to listen to what people who lived through failed socialist states have to say about it. I’m just saying, if you think America is going to be Denmark, and not the USSR if we went full socialist, you probably…

I’m just going to repeat what this and every other “I’m whining because Bernie wasn’t the nominee” post seems to forget: Bernie patently failed to secure the votes of women and non-white voters during the primaries. Bernie patently failed to secure the votes of women and non-white voters during the primaries. Bernie…

How’s it feel to be the Cleveland Browns of politics?

Why do you want to copy Western Europe’s Socialism? Modern Western Europe objectively blows. They’re a bunch of racist assholes and corrupt bureaucrats. America is flawed, sure, but we don’t need to copy a bunch of money grabbing, power-hungry idiots just to match a perceived ideal across the ocean (which doesn’t…

You’re assuming everything would have played out exactly the same way had Sanders been the nominee. The election, given some overlap in who they appealed to, would have come down to something like defense, which would have been in favor of Trump. I don’t know, that’s just how I see it, but to flat out say Bernie would…

Bernie was nothing but the left-wing Trump: a cult of personality who espoused big plans with no idea or strategy on how to make them happen, with a rabid, gullible fanbase who didn’t care anyway.

Socialism: Potentially appealing to half the country if the only other option is racist, sexist, and quasi-fascist. Catch the fever!

In order to be a socialist, you first have to be an absolute loser. America isn’t made of of losers like you, sorry.

You aren’t very good at politics.

Ugh. Bernie Sanders is a con man. He is Donald Trump writ small.

Or a bunch of hipsters who don’t know anything about politics got excited about the idea of “free education”. Bernie never had a real chance of winning in the primaries.

Posts like this is why Deadspin will continue to be the Stranger Things of journalism.

I’ll never get this.

STFU, Hamilton.
