  1. As a Sanders supporter I have no illusions that the country is going to be transformed overnight. I know what the rest of our government looks like. But you have to start somewhere. Even if he got nothing passes in congress he would still be the commander in chief, would be leader of the party to do housecleaning, and would be able to use the bully pulpit like no one else because he talks about the issues people actually care about. That said he will get some things done even if it will be a fraction of what this country needs. Furthermore he is a firewall from the continued backtracking and destruction that we are currently on. Sanders 2020!

  2. Dems just got done lying to you about 2K checks but you want to be a partisan hack? Ok then.

  3.  @adambriceland6588  Let's just savor this victory as they are few and far between before planning out that far ahead.

  4. I'm so tired of the label wars. I don't care about labels. I care about policy. All the talk of labels is just a distraction... by design.

  5.  @susanw2869  Regarding, "one of two will be the next president." While this may be so this isn't a logical reason to support either of those terrible people.

  6. Kinky I hate Trump as much as most but stop with the Trump derangement syndrome. He isn't a dictator for fucks sake and when you make that comment you only make people who oppose Trump look like the kid who cried wolf and idiots. That's not helping. There's a million ways to legitimately attack Trump. Stick to those.

  7. So they have jobs but they aren't full time now? Why am I not surprised how easily the stupid shit you says changes. As for why so many minimum wage jobs are part time you would be wise to examine the incentive corporations have for keeping their labor force working part time rather than full time that has nothing to do with the BS narrative you want to portray of a lazy public. Are you ever embarrassed at what you see when you look in the mirror? You should be.

  8.  @TheZombie567  "behavior is ridiculous in the video" And we all know the best art is really boring right? And "ridiculous" isn't also really interesting right? /s

  9. While I wish Sanders would endorse Canova the fact of the matter is that endorsements are wildly overblown by the public. Sanders and everyone shouldn't need to be telling you or anyone who to vote for. jewelry is absolutely correct... stories like this are far more important then what they usually cover and it isn't even close. I am genuinely shocked CNN aired this story.

  10.  @celestemi4341  We are more than just pieces of meat for you to objectify. I'm just kidding. I just don't understand the people who would make a comment like this in response to yours. Your is clearly a compliment. And that's fine.

  11. I very much disagree with people that don't vote but I do understand it. We live in a country where the two top options for president in 2016 were two of the most despised people in the country. I understand why that would cause apathy. While I happily voted for Jill Stein that is far from getting a president I respect and wanted. All that said people still need to vote.

  12.  @debbieallen1815  Regarding, "Trumpers don't math." Pretty funny coming from you. 1400 is not 2K. Stop bootlicking. It's exactly what trump supporters did for their clown. Regarding, "please be intellectually honest." Wow. Just. Wow. Do better. YOU please be intellectually honest.

  13. Val regarding, "Lets then tune to Fox News for some real news! lol." The only difference between Fox news and MSNBC is that MSNBC is better at hiding their agenda and lying to people.

  14. Corporate media is propaganda.

  16. Regarding, "Clinton supporter," You are as much on my side as Trump supporters are on my side. Maybe less so even because the "democratic" party is suppose to be my party. Regarding, "DNC owes Bernie Sanders supporters an apology" Oooo. An apology. They can take an apology and shove up their ass. They owe THE PEOPLE free and fair elections. Seeing as how they are not going to be given the people that any time soon they can go fuck themselves. Regarding, "they need to refund the Bernie Sanders supporters who gave money to the DNC" What about all the 27 dollar donations that went directly to Sanders? That said I really don't give a fuck about money. That is the corporate democrats thing. I CARE ABOUT FREE AND FAIR ELECTIONS and there was nothing fair about the "democratic" primary. Regarding, "I will never hate you" I don't care. I care about you perpetuating the myth that the rigged primary was fair. The world would be a better place without people spreading these lies and I have no patience or tolerance for them.

  17. Alienated while not waiting til getting the nomination to announce a running mate is an interesting idea I think it would be a terrible one in this specific case. Let's say Sanders chose Turner, who I love and consider to be second on my own personal list of choices behind Gabbard, that mostly serves to give the establishment a new avenue to attack and smear Sanders campaign and you know damn well they would. The biggest obstacle to a Sanders presidency is the "democratic" primary and we would be wise to give them as little ammo as possible to prevent him from winning it.

  18. You are wrong to think she doesn't know that what she is saying is wrong. She does. She is paid to mislead.

  19.  @brawldevil1585  It's too early. She's going to pick a better time for maximum impact imo.

  20. This has to be the smartest, most accurate thing he has ever said.

  22.  Ms Taylor  LMFAO. Amazon was a typo. Was meant to read Walmart. Now all we need is for you to stop sucking at life.

  23.  @coletrickle1775  I like Tulsi but I wish she were supporting Sanders like she did in 2016 and wasn't running against him and splitting the progressive vote.

  24.  @jameshumphrey9939  Regarding, "why not gove hs profits on his book to charity?" Let's say you weren't illiterate and wrote a best selling book, would you give all the money to charity? Why do you think this is a reasonable expectation of Bernie?

  25.  @stoontechguy  Regarding, "discipline" Just stop with this. The problem is that the person is immoral and terrible. That's the problem. Period. And I'm tired of people acting like it's something other than that obvious truth.
    6
  26.  @stoontechguy  Would you say something like, "discipline prevents an immoral someone from acting like it" when talking about Jeffrey Dahmer? Would you really want to describe his problem as a lack of discipline? Or would it better be described that his problem was that he was a psycho? A murderer? Or a cannable (sic)?

  27. The greatest threat to the stability of the world is clearly America in part because of people like Lindsey Graham.

  28. Calls tulsi a sellout and then proceeds to propup Elizabeth "looking forward to corporate money in the general" Warren. Very funny.

  29. I don't care if you are or were a Bernie supporter. I care about her biased coverage. Like, for example, when she perpetuated the bullshit myth of Sanders supporter chair throwers during the NV convention long after she should have realized she going on air and lying to her audience.

  30.  @batboy3746  Regarding, "The echo chamber is strong on this channel." What a remarkably uncompelling "argument."

  31. Albin thanks for proving my points about you having no idea what reality looks like and that you are not witty. It's 2018... nobody jerks to playboy anymore and your attempts at wit pathetic. That said please try again. You are funny... just not in the way you intend.

  32. Says a sexist, racist, Russian operative. Just kidding of course.

  33. Fortunately for the country it isn't exclusively up to the DNC and primary voters have a say in the matter.

  34. Paddle Duck regarding, "I don’t feel like Warren walked back her comments (sic)" Really? "I agree with what Donna Brazile has said over the last few days; that while there was some bias at the DNC, the overall 2016 primary process was fair and Hillary made history." Elizabeth Warren

  35.  @namakudamono  Everyone, especially people like me who supported her because she said she would fight for m4a. All the people who thought she would be different than your average corporate dem (because that's how she marketed herself) who wouldn't be expected to fall in line behind pelosi but she did. She betrayed the principles she claimed to have.

  38.  @Thepopcornator  I actually do know more about him than just for being the crack mayor's brother (thanks mostly to this channel but not exclusively). I really just wanted to poke fun at ignorant Americans. I use jokes and humor as a coping mechanism. Without it thinking of Trump and Ford in their positions might make me clinically depressed if not insane. On a serious note good luck getting rid of Ford. It's like having cancer run government.

  39. Libertarian ideology is at least correct when it comes to the military industrial complex and the war on drugs, even if their domestic economic policy is absurd.

  40. So you care more about party labels than about the people those labels are attached to. I will never understand such a position.

  41. I will never vote for Biden. The establishment knows this but pretends he's the most "electable" because they would rather lose to Trump than let a true progressive win. Bernie 2020!

  42. Why do you assume him comparing the jew to a deadly disease isn't because of antisemitism?

  43. It reminds me of Hillary's "I'm winning" last time around.

  44.  @RandomYouTubeNameAgain  Has no experience, no record to look at to know if he is sincere or just pandering, and no shot to win. There are zero logical reasons to support him over Bernie.

  45. I very much agree that shame is ineffectual at getting people to vote for something but think that shame can prevent people from voting for something. For example I think that shaming a Trump supporter isn't likely to make them vote FOR someone else but it does, I think, have an effect to prevent them from supporting him or someone like them going forward when done correctly. That said this is not a great method and is hardly the only way to sway opinion but humans are a social species who are very capable of feel shame.... especially when that shame is justified. I voted for Obama. I feel shame for it and I'm going to try and never do something like that again.

  46. What progressive values? She was a 90s republican and still is.

  47.  @beautifulworld9829  "Snake AOC" Save titles like that for actual snakes like warren. We can have disagreements about strategy without being considered snakes.

  48.  @icomment2533  There is a legit debate to be had about when life begins even if I personally contend it begins when someone is born. My biggest problem with "pro-lifers" isn't that they think life begins at conception, it's that very often those "pro-lifers" support the death penalty, and/or don't support universal health care, and/or love war.

  49. Biden said he would veto M4A if it got to his desk. No task force changes that. Never Biden.
