    I fucking love Bernie, I donated, canvassed, made calls, drove hundreds of miles to go to rallies, have Bernie sticker on my vehicles in a violently republican town, but Bernies window has closed. He is too old now and he would say that himself.

    I wouldn’t argue too hard because he still seems to have his witts about him, and even a half sentient Bernie is exactly what this corrupt country needs, But this age trend needs to go the other way.

    How about AOC…

      AOC, but how do we court the mythical moderate republican that’s just waiting in the wings to elect a neo-lib once the opportunity arrives?

      Edit: this is probably the reason the neolibs won’t give up power. They are afraid to admit no one, and I mean no one, actually wants them around. Once they let the party change hands everyone will see the absolute juggernaut they are holding back.

          Gavin newsome: NOOOOOOOO!!!

          He said years ago that the homeless issue was his number one problem, and its gotten worse and worse in CA. It’s up like 70% in Sacramento, which is his backyard. We can do better than that, I know we can.

      AOC voted to protect the rail corporations safe from union strikes. Hard pass.
