  1. There should be a mandatory retirement age for congress and senate.

  2. American style capitalism at all cost has failed. It's time for neo-capitalism (which is a mix of socialism and capitalism). When young people are so disenfranchised and feeling hopeless like that it is indeed incredibly dangerous as it would only lead to further unrest in the country as well as propagation of extremist ideology.

  3. No $15 per hour minimum wage will ensure Trump or one of his family members are going to get elected on 2024. All they need to offer is like $10 an hour or some token deal. People are more likely to embrace extremist ideology because of abject poverty.

  4. Word on the street is ...20 Indian soldiers dead and between 35-43 PLA soldiers dead on the Chinese side. As to whether China and India will go to war over this. The answer is no. The area is not a top priority zone. Sure both sides claim the territory but this is more for the sake of "face" not a critical town or territory so it is highly unlikely both sides will go to war over it. But that doesn't mean there won't be bad blood though. Indian nationalism and Chinese nationalism are both at an all time high. This incident could be just one of many incidents that could potentially trigger a future conflict but the incident itself will not trigger a war between China and India. Also note this border dispute has been going on for decades. Skirmishes such as these is nothing new although the intensity of the recent skirmish is surprising.

  5. The corporate democrats needs to get with the progressives and help rebuild rural America. How ? Bring back jobs and development in rural America. Cut down on excessive globalization and offshoring of American jobs to oversea factories. Most Americans favor left wing social policies like social security, universal healthcare and universal education. These programs are NOT free they are paid for by the US taxpayers and to be used on the US taxpayers rather than being doled out to multinational billionaires. We need to bring back the middle class working class America once again. Populism is in once again while corporatism is out.

  6. Trump is really his own worst enemy. All Biden had to do was stand there, say a few platitudes and wear a mask and he would win because Trump has reached critical mass insanity. I mean what kind of president would NOT a wear mask and go against the medical advice of every doctor every single medical practitioner in the entire country (heck the entire world).

  7. I’M FEELING THE BERN!!! Bernie Sanders is the only presidential candidate that excites me.

  8. I agree with you the GOP is shooting themselves on the foot this upcoming 2022 midterms. People are going to remember the GOP's lack of support for the stimulus (while people have short term memory, the midterm election is just next year and the memory of pain inflicted upon them by the GOP will stay in there for quite a while). What I am seeing now is the GOP's utter lack of concern for their constituents and instead they are going full force into voter disenfranchisement and suppression.

  9. Okay… explain to me what it means to you when you spout words like Marxist. Ironically most Americans hated the word marxism or communism or socialism because they were conditioned to yet does not know what it means.

  10. Warren is finished.

  11. America is now waking up to the fact that GDP and the stock market are metrics on which to show how the rich people are faring in the United States not how the average working class American family is doing.

  13. Exactly. A country is what the people make of it.

  14. If Bernie Sanders were to run in 2020 against Trump it wouldn't be a close call hair raisingly close election (290 is close). Bernie would win in a massive landslide (320+). Florida would turn blue. This year's election is more like getting rid of a dangerous fascist like Trump than any enthusiasm for Biden. People are now hurting, what they want is a president that actually has a plan to address the COVID issue, the economy issue, the job issue, and the healthcare issue (3.5M people are currently sick and over 14-20M are jobless and about the same has lost their healthcare). People would be super enthusiastic for Bernie Sanders.

  15. Bernie has 6,000+ more votes. More votes = winner. Delegates system is a sham.

  16. Trump “America first” ? More like Trump first, America last policy.

  17. Ed Markey all the way!

  18. <3 <3 <3 Ilhan Omar <3 <3 <3 Don't you love it when progressive politicians like Ilhan Omar speaks truth to power. Yes the US economy is indeed a sham. The stock market are at an all time high yet over 20-24 million American workers are unemployed (14% - 16% unemployed). Who owns the stocks ? It's the rich venture capitalist people. Once they sold their stocks and profit off the hyper pumped up stock then they fire tens of thousands of workers in the name of cost cutting. If this isn't called a sham I don't know what is.

  19. It’s more like how the Chinese communist party ruins everything good and beautiful in this world.

  20. It’s not going to be business as usual because there is no business left. Almost 25-45% of America’s small businesses has been damaged by the pandemic. Biden and the Progressives will likely be spending the next 4 years trying to prevent America from a full on economic collapse. The GOP are already preparing for 2024 election and they got even worst people than Trump lined up to be president.

  21. It almost seems like Trump is trying very very hard to lose the election. This is insanity.

  22. Mass shooting every week now. That is the real threat to American lives.

  23. They say the mortality rate of the corona virus is 2% that’s a pretty low ball number. The actual mortality rate is probably around 5-6%

  24. I will say this. Without the $2000 stimulus. The Democrats will lose the midterms election. Even the best laid plans needed time to work and Biden won't have the time if the Democrats cannot hold on to the House majority. All these symbolic gesture and feel good rhetoric are worthless when people are hungry. People wants/needs money in their pockets right now -- not months later.

  25. They need to pass the $2000 now.

  26. I would want Medicare for all especially during a time of the coronavirus going pandemic. Trump’s health czar even said they won’t intervene to make the coronavirus vaccine affordable to all Americans and will just let free market price the hypothetical vaccine.

  27. Then what would be left is a one party state just like China. Do you want the US to turn into a dystopian fascist state just like China ?

  28. So basically Kentucky legislature wants a dynastic system where the previous leader can pick his successor like kings.

  29. About time.

  30. 5900+ coronavirus related deaths as of today in the US and growing exponentially every day. How can people still say universal health programs like Medicare for all is not a necessity ?

  31. Yeah no more unemployment bonus yet the unemployment numbers didn't lower in fact over 2 million more people are now unemployed since the end of the $600 per week unemployment bonus. It's not that people didn't want to go to work but the fact is there is no more work. Without the $600 per week stimulus people are cutting down. This translates to weaker sales and weaker sales means more layoffs. Trump and the GOP politicians are failures.

  32. Trickle down economics is a scam that has never worked in 40 years.

  33.  @vickilaws8518  there is no radical DNC. Only corporate DNC and Progressives. And progressives are winning.

  34. LOL like who ? If Bernie doesn’t care like you claim then there is no one left. Bernie is the most caring US politician. US politics is nasty and the middle class rarely gets what they want. All the concentration of power are now in the hands of the plutocratic elites. We’re a few steps short into becoming an authoritarian fascist country.

  35. @Texas Mexican Lady You realize he lost because the establishment system is corrupt. If you don't see anything wrong you're part of the problem.

  36. Of course the elites in the democrats side wants Trump to win again. All those corporate tax cuts made them very very rich without them getting any of the political blame. Next is cutting Social security and Medicare which will make those millionaires and billionaires even richer. Who will be left to suffer for it in the end ? The people. The working class and the poor. Once the US has been looted to the last drop those billionaires can just pull out and move to another country and start the process again. This is what excessive capitalism does.

  37. You can see the hypocrisy here from the right wing GOP. They are like "oh the Bidens has profited from China..blah blah blah" without a shred of proof. Yet Trump is doing exactly the same kind of graft and corruption openly and nobody in the right wing republican party is batting an eye. Is Hunter Biden wrong in using his dad's name? Sure. Trump's daughter and Jared Kushner and even Trump himself are doing exactly the same kind of graft and corruption yet you don't see the right wing media criticizing them. America is in a severe case of cognitive dissonance. The US government on both sides of the aisle (republican and democrat) are utterly broken. This is why vote progressives.

  38. This is why I love this show. The left and right can in fact work together. Sure both sides disagree on a lot of things like immigration, border security and foreign policy but both sides agree on a lot of things too like corporatism taking over our democracy, the dangers of excessive globalization, etc.

  39. LOL ironically the GOP has even more establishment white guys. At least the democrats had more diversity.

  40.  @Rebar617  Careful your racism and misogyny is openly showing. The GOP nowadays doesn't even bother hiding their utter disdain for women and people of color.

  41. Basically Trump lied about everything. Not surprised. Trump is criminal and delusional at the same time.

  42. Yes... Bloomberg is finished. Not even his $66 billion dollar wealth can save his presidential campaign. He should just save his money if he is smart. But that’s not his goal.. his goal is to cause a contested convention so the 500 super delegates will get into play in order to screw Bernie Sanders during the democratic convention. We’re not dumb we know exactly why the DNC has fielded so many candidates.

  43. Of course sentient Alien life is real. Are we so arrogant to think we’re the only sentient intelligent life in the universe ?

  44. I hope the movie fails miserably. That ought to teach corporate America about pandering to the CCP. I heard Disney spent over $200 million making that film (the most expensive remake ever). I hope this is the end of neoliberalism and excessive globalization.

  45. They can see the big picture that ironically a bulk of the less wealthy / will never be wealthy seems to miss. Socialism enacted in a controlled manner is actually good for the country and the economy. Enabling the working class to prosper is good for the economy. Hoarding of wealth at the top is bad because once the economy is hollowed out (when everyone is either super rich or super poor) then the economy collapses.

  46. American style capitalism at all cost is a failure. It's time for neo-capitalism (a mixture of socialism and controlled capitalism). It's time to put the working class first instead of the capitalist billionaires.

  47. I agree. Whoever can deliver programs that can help the working class Americans the most will win big time. But it seems the race has now boiled down to who is more anti-China. This is ridiculous and disheartening. While yes China's militarism and expansionism is an issue but the more important issue is how does the American working class fares. And yes the coronavirus is the top #1 priority issue not the economy. Trump could have coasted to victory in this election had he even pretended to care about people getting sick from the CoVID-19. Nobody cares about the economy when you or your loved ones are sick from the coronavirus. The DJIA reaching all time high is meaningless when 193,000+ Americans are now dead and 6.5M are sick from the pandemic. They are now even estimating the number of dead could reach 400,000+ by January 2021.

  48. Yep the DNC and RNC are pretty much the same. Bernie Sanders is the only candidate left that actually supports democracy.

  49. I used to respect Warren. Not anymore. Her continued stay in the race will only hurt Bernie. When it is Biden vs Trump we’re doomed.

  50. Rand Paul is not a bad guy true. He is just delusional that libertarian policies in the middle of the worst economic crisis and pandemic in US history is good for the country.
