  18. Trump is the inevitable blowback of 40 years of Neoliberal DNC's broken promises that has seen a massive decline in the standard of living of the overwhelming majority of Americans. I think the most important thing is to remember, all of Biden's broken 2020 campaign promises like a $15 minimum wage, public option for healthcare, not to issue any oil drilling on federal lands(Let alone the most ever), fully funded infrastructure package rather than gutting it for corporate oil lobbyists, voting rights act for George Floyd, not putting refugees in cages let alone keeping Trump's border policies, not one more mile of Trump's border wall (yup billions more), making Saudi Arabia's MBS pay for the murder of TWO American journalists, cynically cancelling student debt in a way that he knew SCOTUS would stop in a way he could cynically send people back to the polls. Once in government the DNC crushed the rail workers movement, forcing them back to work for the audacity of asking for a single day off?! continuing to ignore the Flint water crisis, also, let's not forget the absolute f**** tragedy that is East Palestine rail chemical disaster that the people there still continue to suffer from. Also, rather than trying to deal in a humane and sensible immigration reform, Biden totally capitulated to the far right view of further militarizing the border while not getting anything for people who've been in the country for decades, resolving nothing except to move the conversation towards the anti-immigration crowd. Expanding the military industrial complexes budget with zero accountability for the fact they don't know where the money went and expanding the nuclear Arsenal while dropping all of the non nuclear prolification agreements. I can keep going on and on and on but none of this should surprise anyone. Biden has been one of the most corporate captured and Republican friendly Senators of all time, with a record that shows nothing except total complicity in selling out the American people for political & personal gain. His administration is the perfect embodiment of the DNC's worldview, campaign to the center, Rule to the Right. Reward the donor's, ensure the protection of Israel so that Netanyahu can break every single possible crime against humanity. Biden undermined any possible peace agreement between Ukraine and Russia costing hundreds of thousands of lives on both sides , which at the end of this I guarantee will be the exact same place as to where the original land agreement was.. Oh, yeah, let's not forget the only thing that he was involved in with Obama that actually was helpful, like normalization of relations with Cuba, or Iran?!? Once elected he didn't do anything on those fronts either because it was more important to him to ingratiate himself with right-wing corporate media than to spend political capital on the things he campaigned on to do the right thing that would have actually helped the people in those countries as well as the USA in terms of trade and having any, what's so f**** ever credibility on the world stage?!?! Could you imagine how much more important it would be to have Iran in the world economic system right now so that they had something to lose?!?? I get why the DNC pushed him over Bernie Sanders, clearly Biden's hubris and ignorance was easy to manipulate his foreign policy agenda in the Israeli direction unlike Obama, who was smarter than that. The fact Biden was an avowed "Zionist" was just icing on the cake! Unfortunately, Hamas 's October 7th attack totally destroyed Netanyahu's narrative that his support of Hamas as a way to destabilize Palestine as a whole would guarantee the greater security to everyone in the region was proven extremely false, now sadly those chickens have come home to roost for not only all of those slaughtered children, but the rest of us who have to deal with the policy failures of a demented old man & The DNC political establishment that prioritized its own personal gains, profit and exploitation of the region over the geopolitical goals of the states for the next hundred years. I bring all this up because of his first choice as president, he picked Kamala Harris as his running mate. My belief is that it was because she was a failure running for president and he knew that he was such a weak candidate that he couldn't withstand any kind of political talent from anyone else, whatsoever and she certainly fulfilled that goal. Also, the DNC knew that she was such a weak candidate as well, that she would never, under any circumstances talk back or have any kind of spine or political beliefs whatsoever that could complicate their commitment to the donor class. More importantly, Kamala would n't have any shame whatsoever because she believes in nothing at all. The DNC had assembled the perfect team of ambition without ideology, an ability to change opinion on fundamental issues without a hint of shame and most importantly of all, a complete and total disregard for everyone except for themselves. Obviously, the DNC knew that this would be extremely unpalatable to the American people, but Trump is the gift that keeps on giving! His total disregard for the norms which give the false pretense that Washington DC isn't just a total grift to extract $ from the working class while giving it to the 1% and ensuring that they never, under any circumstance, ever, pay any consequences for their incompetence, corruption and or complete and total criminality in terms of hundreds, if not millions of people's lives. Unfortunately, Trump's grotesque incompetence, paled in comparison to the DNC's choice to TWICE cheat the American people out of their ACTUAL legitimate choice Bernie Sanders & forced literally the worst neoliberalism corporate HACK of ALL TIME Corporate Joe in a desperate attempt to use Trump's incompetence to hide their total contempt for the working classes rejection of the Neoliberal agenda. Trump is the inevitable blowback to 40 years of neoliberalism brought to you by the DNC and they're failure to deliver the basics. If the party of "democracy" only manages to ever deliver a declining living standard and identity politics instead of the material well being of Americans it's no wonder that they have rejected those obviously empty promises. Sadly, at some point voter will try the strong man and hope that maybe he delivers when "their people have sold them out consistently for 40 years". Trump won't of course but that's the consequence we all have to suffer for the greed hubris of the Democratic party. WORST of ALL the DNC DID THIS ON PURPOSE, If they won then they're neoliberal agenda would be confirmed and celebrated while the billionaire donor class collected their Pound of flesh. However, if they lost then Trump would also reward the billionaire donors with not only taxes but reduced regulation and best of all a way, to drive fear into the hearts of all workers that if they don't support the neoliberal agenda of the Democrats, they will be thrown to the Neoconservative GOP wolves!!! The system works.

  30. LOL?!?!?!? Obama's last gigantic middle finger to Biden is spectacular. He might as well have chanted, "Let's go, Brandon!" Thank you Joe, for letting the Donors force you out of the race because you are so decrepit, senile, uninspiring that your 50 years of neoliberal failures like protecting credit card companies over consumers, jailing the most black and brown people of any country ever at any time in the entire history of the world, overseeing a genocide in Gaza that saw the wholesale slaughter of at least 20,000 children in Gaza is truly inspiring. Also, let's not forget his many failures on campaign promises, where he purposely planned that scotus would reject his debt relief for students so he could force young people back to the polls for a third time, his weak capitulation to the parliamentarian on a $15 an hour minimum wage, the fist bump for the Saudi Prince who butchered an American journalist, Biden promised not to drill anymore on federal land and then issued the most permits of any president ever, also let American/Palestinian journalist Shireen abu akleh be obviously assassinated by the IDF with zero consequences, let alone the literal murder by Israel of hundreds of nurses, doctors, journalists and aid workers (EVEN THE WHITE ONES?!?!). Obama took the knife out of Joementia just long enough to remind Biden that he'll never be loved like Obama and that the only reason he won the 2020 election was that Obama and the establishment hated Bernie Sanders even more than they had no respect for genocide Joe Like Obama said, "Let's go Brandon!!!!!" The system works

  83. Kamala conceded because ALL of her BILLIONAIRE donors are super excited about ALL the DEREGULATION & TAX BREAKS they will soon enjoy at the expense of the working class, while the pretence of Democracy is maintained by the mainstream media who profits from maintaining the status quo on the false narrative that there's a fundamental difference between BOTH corporate parties, who clearly represent the oligarchy & not anyone who doesn't have at least 7 decimal points after their names. Obviously OUR media is there to Manufacture Consent at the expense of the working class and using identity politics as a way to accuse working people concerned about immigration of being racists if they are white and of course misogynist if they are people of color and or Communists if they don't agree with exploiting workers that have to pay the most expensive rent in recent human history!!!!! The fact that Democrats can say with this straight faced , "they represent democracy, while they spend trillions of dollars to murder citizens of Democratic countries, they use corporate money from businesses that have literally poisoned millions of Americans and have immediately dedicated Media to ignoring hurricane victims while they sent hundreds of billions of dollars to Ukraine for a war that everyone knows is obviously unwinnable against a nuclear-armed power, 10 times the size, without starting World War 3. This uncomfortable FACT, says everything about how absolutely corrupt they are. Even the American people aren't that stupid anymore!??!?!? The system works.

  94. Vote 3rd party. KAMALA WILL SUPPORT NEOLIBERALISM, THE M.I.COMPLEX INSTEAD OF WORKERS & THE MURDER OF TEN'S OF 1000's OF PALESTINIAN CHILDREN, The Democrat's sole purpose is to take energy and resources from the Left and working class people. Period. They made that clear with what they did to Bernie Sanders in both 2016 & 2020. They would rather Trump than real progress because ultimately the goal is to reward the donor class & consolidate power into the elites, not help regular people. With that as a guide (let's stop pretending that the DNC hasn't been failing on purpose for the last 40ish years, every time they do the Rich get richer and that's a coincidence i suppose), the logical conclusion to our future is eventual climate collapse & or WW3, which will be the pretext for actual fascism (covid really felt like a soft launch). When that happens and we don't have a movement, (Panther Party or Greens but my concern with the greens is that they will sacrifice themselves on the altar of electoralism that bares no fruit & won't be strident when required) that has been well funded, with trained people, they'll round up the political opposition and the new world order will be impossible to fight against (think of the French underground leading up to the Nazi take over but now they have an algorithm that flags the people who are capable of fighting back and systematically finds all of their petty crimes to either discredit them & or more likely incarceration/assassination). A Case for a 2nd Trump presidency. Therefore, I'm starting to think a second Trump presidency might be in everyone's best interest? If Harris is re-elected everyone gets to go back to brunch and pretend that democracy is ok. A Harris presidency would reward the DNC for being corrupt, breaking all its promises to the Left, purposely making student debt relief fail in a corporate SCOTUS, kids still in cages, refugees dying at the border as well as continuing Trump's "wall', failure on climate, failure on a public healthcare option, the most approvals of oil & gas permits, support to break the backs of unions that actually affect the American economy (despite what Krystal ball says, the fact that they broke the rail workers strike with legislation tells you what the DNC will really do when push comes to shove on unions) continuing to promote the proxy war against Russia and American complicity for the genocide in Gaza and on and on and on, etc........... However, if Trump is re-elected everyone will remember that children are still dying in detention, health insurance is out of control, democracy is under direct threat, the world is burning and at least Trump says he would try to end the war in Ukraine (obviously Trump would nuke Ukraine for a nickel but the fact he even suggested peace is better than the DNC's current pro WW3 stance. Sadly, the same with Gaza. Even Trump understands that genocide draws too large of a spotlight to grift in the darkness). Also, once we push Harris across the line and she tastes POWER, do people honestly believe she'll go against the donors and deliver anything for the working class!?!? Another thing is the fact that if Harris serves 4 years, it will almost certainly ensure a GOP sweep of all 3 branches of government and this time it won't be a moronic gameshow host but a capable authoritarian who will have unlimited power. I'd rather Trump win and let him grift for another term with divided government than face the prospect of a GOP 2028 sweep after 4 more years of Neoliberal policies under Harris. The reality is that we can boil the climate/fascist frog slow or fast but it's going to fry either way. If the fire is stoked, it would re-unite the REAL LEFT and remind the Corporate Democrats that breaking every promise to the Left has consequences or if we are really lucky, public awareness that the duopoly won't save us and force regular people to understand that they're also in the same boiling pot...... Clearly the system is not "working" for us. It's set up for the elites on both sides, so let's stop supporting it! Vote for any 3rd party and throw some sand in the Vaseline. Sure, sure it's going to hurt......... BUT It's going to hurt either way, at least it hurts them as well!!! The system works. Let's stop supporting it, vote 3rd party. Doesn't matter who, just NOT THEM!!!

  113. @eddiehartsfield9012  Direct quote from Politifact. Please either acknowledge that I posted is accurate or delete it. After initially vowing to sign the Freedom of Choice Act, President Barack Obama quickly said it's not his "highest legislative priority." That was in March 2009. Since then, it has scarcely been mentioned. A version of the bill was last introduced in Congress in 2007, and no new bill has appeared since. We asked NARAL Pro-Choice America, an abortion rights group, to assess the progress on this issue. "The protection of Roe v. Wade in federal law remains a long-term priority for NARAL Pro-Choice America and the pro-choice community. Unfortunately, the composition of Congress (including the first two years of President Obama's term) did not include enough pro-choice votes to pass legislation like the Freedom of Choice Act," NARAL said in a statement. NARAL cited other efforts by Obama which the organization views as achievements in reproductive rights, such as rescinding the global gag rule and signing legislation fixing the price of birth control at safety net health centers. Still, the Freedom of Choice Act has all but disappeared. We rate this a Promise Broken. Our Sources THOMAS.gov, Library of Congress website Email interview with Ted Miller, NARAL Prochoice America, May 30, 2012 Read About Our Process The Principles of the Truth-O-Meter Angie Drobnic Holan By Angie Drobnic Holan May 4, 2009 Freedom of Choice Act is far from passage At a news conference marking his first 100 days in office, President Barack Obama answered a question about the Freedom of Choice Act, a law that affirms abortion rights. "As a candidate, you vowed that one of the very first things you wanted to do was sign the Freedom of Choice Act," the reporter said. "Do you still hope that Congress quickly sends you the Freedom of Choice Act so you can sign it?" Obama reiterated his support of abortion rights as well as his sympathy for those who oppose it. "Now, the Freedom of Choice Act is not my highest legislative priority," Obama concluded. "I believe that women should have the right to choose, but I think that the most important thing we can do to tamp down some of the anger surrounding this issue is to focus on those areas that we can agree on. And that's where I'm going to focus." Our research indicates that the Freedom of Choice Act has not been introduced in the current Congress. The bill, as introduced in previous years, is relatively brief but could have far-reaching effects. (You can read a 2007 version of the bill yourself via this link, click on "Text of legislation.") The bill says that neither local, state nor federal governments may interfere with a woman's right to "(A) to bear a child; (B) to terminate a pregnancy prior to viability; or (C) to terminate a pregnancy after viability where termination is necessary to protect the life or health of the woman." It also says that an individual "aggrieved by a violation of this section may obtain appropriate relief (including relief against a government) in a civil action." People who both favor and oppose the legislation believe it will override some state restrictions on abortion, such as parental notification laws for minors. But exactly which restrictions would be overturned is up for debate. The legislation fails to name any particular abortion regulations that it intends to override. It undoubtedly would be challenged in the courts. We asked the abortion rights group NARAL Pro-Choice America what they thought about the bill's prospects for passage in light of Obama's comments. They sent us a statement praising Obama's support for abortion rights, but they weren't too optimistic about passage for the Freedom of Choice Act. "With respect to the Freedom of Choice Act, President Obama can't move this bill on his own and, despite our prochoice gains in the last two elections, we don't have the votes in Congress necessary to pass the legislation at this point," the statement said. So to sum up: Obama said the bill isn't his highest priority, and the bill's supporters say they don't have the votes to pass it. So for now, we rate this campaign promise failure.

  181. VOTE 3RD PARTY! OR: WHY I'M NOT AFRAID OF TRUMP'S SECOND TERM and why I'm more afraid of being complicit in the genocide of Gaza, rather than all the horrible stuff that Trump will probably do BUT that the DNC will also likely do, however slightly less and maybe even accidentally something good........ I'm starting to think a second Trump presidency might be in everyone's best interest?!?! Seriously. If Harris is elected then everyone gets to go back to brunch and pretend that democracy is ok. A Harris presidency would reward the DNC for being corrupt, breaking all its promises to the Left, kids still in cages, refugees dying at the border, failure on climate, failure on green infrastructure, failure on voting rights, failure on a public opinion for healtcare, failure on police reform, failure on $15 min wage, failure to hold Saudi Arabia accountable, failure to not drill for Oil on federal land, failure in Gaza, failure on Lebanon, failure on Syria, failure in Afghanistan, failure to not escalate hostility with China, continuing to promote the proxy war against Russia, etc..... However, if Trump is re-elected everyone will magically remember that children are still dying in detention, democracy is under direct threat, the world's climate is still burning and at least Trump says he would try to end the war in Ukraine (obviously Trump would nuke Ukraine for a nickel but the fact he even suggested peace is better than the DNC's current pro WW3 stance). The reality is that we can boil the climate frog slow or fast but it's going to fry either way. If the fire is stoked purposely by the actual Left, it would tell the Corporate Democrats that breaking almost every promise has consequences or if we are really lucky, public awareness that the duopoly will not save us BUT IS ACTIVELY WORKING AGAINST ALL WORKER'S INTERESTS (Even if you make $100,000 a year) and force regular people to understand that after the Palestinians/LEBANESE, it WILL EVENTUALLY BE the country their families are from next. Not to mention the fact, that they're also in the same boiling pot of climate change & that the next climate catastrophe is going to be the pretext for ushering in boots on the ground fascism......... The system works. Let's stop supporting it. Vote third party, knowing full well that it will more than likely elect Donald Trump and that you are proud of it because it's better than voting for Kamala's kinder, gentler genocide. Lastly, always remind Liberals when they say that Donald Trump will be worse, that genocide is already the WORST and yet the DNC is currently supporting it with 2000 lb bombs. Yes, Trump will more than likely increase the rate of Palestinian deaths, which is unbelievably horrific BUT if the clearly stated goals of Israel's political leaders are to be believed, then tragically everyone in Palestine will eventually be dead regardless of the timeline. This is unacceptable on every possible level, there's no lesser of two evils when f***ing genocide is concerned!?! Kamala is an empty vessel to be filled with the military industrial complex's murderous interests for not only Gaza BUT obviously the next place they intend to invade once they've executed every last Palestinian man, woman and child (I wrote this previous comments prior to the Lebanese mass murder campaign of Netanyahu. Sadly, it confirms my suspicions that this will not stop and unless we sacrifice something here in this country and unfortunately, every country in the world that does not support mass murder. It will continue to expand and will be the template for all State sanctioned mass murder moving forward as we look into the abyss of world War III.) Vote for ANY 3rd party that doesn't support genocide, if the DNC doesn't lose based on this issue, then they will understand that Americans literally support genocide & will continue to act accordingly. I'm not saying that the Trump presidency is good in any way and will be a tragic loss of not only life but everything we hold dear as people who care about our community but f**** everything!! ❤️. What I'm saying is that once we accept genocide as the lesser of two evils, we are no longer human beings but animals who are willing to do anything to survive and I would rather die as a human being defending the dignity of all people, rather than as a Savage animal, killing everything instinctively in its path as an excuse to ignore the humanity of others. The system works, let's stop supporting it. Vote Green 💚

  198. If America & Russia agreed to drop a strategic Nuke in Ukraine to create a 9/11 event that polarized the electorate giving Trump a 3rd term to "save us" and destroy the social safety net, civil rights, unconstrained power to the military industrial complex & all the powers of a government during a "TOTAL WAR SCENARIO." Even better, regardless of a recession, any massive federal government failures in every possible way, none of it would be relevant as anything short of total commitment to total WAR or "patriotism" which means slavish devotion to the current administration as you would obviously need to suspend elections immediately to ensure that everything was "safe," as this clearly would cause mass protests that is not only un-American BUT more importantly, anti-Trump. Which is not only treason & punishable by death during war BUT actually a crime against God, as Trump is our imperfect vessel against the Left's commie commitment to Satan. This would solve so many problems in terms of being able to pass laws where anything short of celebrating King Donald, would be considered treason & or blasphemy as those people would be jailed without trial as Satanic heretics are not entitled to a jury of their peers........ The system works........ I mean, obviously the Nazis set up a false flag for the Reichstag & or the Gleiwitz Polish incident to completely consolidate power during a moment of weakness of government. Luckily the Trump's administration of Republicans too loyal to the Constitution to consider anything improper. Musk & his supporters are also not capable of lying for political gain or consolidating power for a fascist takeover by weakening the administrative State as that would as a great American intellectual once said, "SAD." We just need to let go of the rope & let the tide take us out to sea and assume that the richest people on Earth, who were previously being charged or already convicted of multiple crimes against Democracy, ultimately have our best interest at heart!!!! HOWEVER, if somehow they couldn't be trusted, at least there's the AWESOME oratory power of Joaquin Jefferies or Chuck Schumer's strong inspirational leadership that would NEVER allow the DNC to fall in line for The Weimar Republic 2.0, In an act of profound cowardice just to protect their own wealth and privilege?!?!? Nope! Clearly our leaders are the selfless people we 'd always suspected and we can all go back to sleep....... The system works.

  201. Sure, sure Trump obviously sucks BUT can we at least acknowledge the fact that Israel just used pagers and phones to blow up random people in Lebanon?!? Yeah, yeah, yeah...... Hezbollah is evil and all that, despite the obvious fact that they're part of the democratically elected government of Lebanon, the fact remains that even if they are the sole purveyors of all evil in the middle East and America is NEVER, UNDER ANY circumstances guilty of paying for the slaughter of innocent women and children........... The fact remains that the Israelis had no idea who was going to be holding those pagers or who was going to be next to it when it exploded?!?!? Which means that the Israelis were comfortable with the murder of the children, which happens to be collective punishment?!.! All because Hezbollah supported Palestinians not being slaughtered by the tens of thousands?!?!? Let alone the blowback to all people in Israel, including Americans around the world, all so that Netanyahu can avoid corruption charges?!?!? This clearly implies that the Israelis are comfortable with murdering anybody, anywhere, under any circumstances, that included women and fucking children which happen to be next to the pagers when it exploded next to the democratically elected leaders in Lebanon!?!? Just to send a message that they don't care about international law, human rights law, or anything that is normal within the context of international borders. They just don't give a f*** and they will murder anyone's children under any circumstances whatsof***ingever and the DNC and Republicans are fully into it?!?!? Kamala will help pick the pager batteries out of the skulls of children to show how much she f***** cares.......... I can't believe that all of the comedians and everyone is just going along with this $hit like it's f**** normal or something?!?! Like they didn't just killed a bunch of people including women and children with f**** pagers that exploded, sorry BUT to repeat, women and children died randomly!?! So that Israel could send a message that they are willing to kill women and children in an effort to fight against The barberism of the Muslim hordes who are willing to kill indiscriminately women and children. WT absolute F !?!? It serves no purpose other than to explicitly acknowledge the fact that the people of Lebanon are explicitly responsible for not only the leadership of that country but also the terrorists & If they don't fight and die in the street against thier own government the Israelis will weaponize regular citizens electronics to blow up anyone and everyone regardless, to send a message that everyone is responsible for everything that their government does?!?!?! Do you understand what implications that f**** has?!?!?! It means that every time anyone's government does anything horrific like say blow up children with pagers, it means that everyone is fair game and that there are no more rules of law at all whatsoever. Jesus f**** Christ, even the mob had rules that there was no women or children, including families. But the Israelis just don't give a f*** + I can't help but think this is a pretext for something even goddamn worse. Looking forward to how you make this into comedy Gold Seth!?!?!

  203. I get the DNC's justification for genocide BUT unfortunately Americans go to work everyday and pay taxes that are used to slaughter people throughout the world. Which leaves us with an important obligation to educate ourselves and to at least bare witness to these crimes against humanity and speak out in whatever way is possible. If you are a Liberal, a soft introduction for accurate reporting, I'd start with Brianna Joy Gray's "Bad Faith Podcast' (She was Bernie Sanders communications director originally but they've fallen out over his support of Biden's neoliberal agenda. She's Not only very well spoken but is genuine to the point of me being very concerned about her personal safety as she pulled no punches no matter how powerful the other group is.) BJG has a little bit of everything, but always a genuine, thoughtful discussion of many different issues that are extremely difficult that never tells you what to think just that what are the many things to consider. Chris Hedges (* just absolutely f**** brilliant, sorry I just can't help myself. Even my favourites on this list are a bit repetitive but every time I see any Chris Hedges interview, it's always informative in a new way on the same subject. Seriously.) Hedges was originally from the New York Times but was fired for accurately reporting on the wars in Iraq & Afghanistan. He's gone on to report from most war-torn country in the world and continues to be one of the most considerate, thoughtful people in the entire world. The man actually speaks Arabic for f*** sake. And yes of course Glenn Greenwald & before your Liberal mind groans, bare in mind that if he wasn't reviled by corporate media for reporting on many uncomfortable truths about the DNC (especially for calling out the corporate media's disgusting COMPLICITY!!!!), he has a journalistic trophy case that would place him literally in the top 5 of all time and still be competitive for #1. Arguably breaking some of the most important stories of our age, yet a multitude of EXTREMELY important journalism that continues to be ignored. Yeah, I know he sometimes plays footsies with the right-wing discourse but STILL does his journalistic due diligence in reviewing their particular concerns such as the total b***** that was Russia gate, the LIE that was the Hunter Biden laptop and other things that have been generally dismissed by the mainstream media but have actually been true despite the smear campaigns against him from the DNC & their cheerleaders in the MSM!!! However sympathetic Glen is to Trump's supporters, it's never inaccurate but definitely friendly and @ times arguably glosses over certain facts to keep his Libertarian audience engaged. Still, he does call out Trump & Israel regularly which isn't financially a great choice but I think it's important that he does so, because it's the only way to get any information that is remotely accurate to those people and hopefully helps de-program them eventually . Yes, he plays a bit of a spoiler role in terms of letting them think a little worse of Democrats as he clearly despises the DNC for its totally disingenuous commitment to the working class. But let's be honest, the Democrats havent done much for anyone except for the billionaires that donate to their parties, so not a lot of tears lost there! (*Before you send me that tedious list of legislative accomplishments, so tirelessly trotted out when anyone complains about Biden's many failures, keep in mind I've made a very long and also tediously extensive list of all the things he promised on the campaign trail to beat Bernie Sanders. The things he obviously didn't want to do like student debt relief but was forced to, then promptly rescinded the moment he could or half delivered once Bernie Sanders killed his own movement's ability to extract any concessions from power. Sadly. The reality is the DNC does the least amount possible for everyone else while rewarding the donor class and has done so for last 40 years on purpose, which is why they are electorally tied with an almost 80 year old TV gameshow host convicted of multiple felonies along with sexual assault conviction and an attempted coup against the country he's running to lead, not mentioning multiple bankruptcies, fraud charges as well as working for McDonald's?!?!?!?(Remember that purple Grimace Commercial) Understand that every time a liberal tells me that the DNC is at least better than the RNC?!?!? What I hear is that Mussolini was better than Hitler........ok, sure Mussolini may have killed people slower or less than Hitler but I'm still not interested in voting for the lesser of two evils when it comes to genocide. The system works Vote for the Green Party. Voting to actively support genocide is not only wrong, immoral and against what ANY religion preaches. It tells the billionaires who actually run the DNC that genocide is a winning proposition. (If anyone can send me any religious texts that says god wants you to support the lesser of two evils?!?!? I'll be very impressed! And will send them A gift certificate for a $100 gift card at any Boeing, Raytheon and or your local military industrial complex community supplier.)
