What did you do to actually try to get Bernie elected?

@HarryS77 If you get four more years, you get nothing you want and you have given away the seat of RBG to pretty much guarantee that any good legislation that President AOC or anyone else can get through Congress will be overturned by the Supreme Court. Biden will at least through the occasional bone our way, although I will admit that his only proposal that genuinely got me excited was changing the rules for unrealized capital gains on inheritance. (Cliffs Notes version: Bill Gates could die tomorrow, and his kids could cash out his Microsoft shares tax free. Biden's proposal would change it so the basis of taxation would be the purchasing price.) That, and we don't have to worry about him becoming a fascist dictator who refuses to leave.

Methinks it will be more than what we get with Trump, and infinitely more than we'll get through the Supreme Court down the road if Trump gets to name the successor to RBG and possibly Breyer.

@babygorilla4233 A lot of people thought that they were special and they could avoid a dictatorship. If one party controls the executive and the judiciary, that party can pull it off. If you are really willing to chance it after seeing Trump's stormtroopers in Portland, you are the most dangerous of all.

@mrbadguysan I didn't see the notification to your original quote. Not what you gave, but what did you do? And why does it matter? "Not me, us" wasn't just about a pithy phrase;it was about doing the work that needed to be done. So, if you're going to trash the man, what did you do?
