    It’s fucked up there’s no option to vote for who actually wants to fix it.

    Kamala was headed in the right direction 5 years ago, but now I dont even know if she admits the current system am is flawed now.

      It’s sad that the best response to Trump’s bizarre accusation of “she wants to give everyone health care” would be “fuck yeah I do!” but she for some reason thinks it will scare off swing voters and leans into the classic Dem instinct of tucking to the center.

        would be “fuck yeah I do!”

        I’m not a huge fan of Pete, but at least he’s smart enough to have learned that lesson from Bernie.

        He goes on Faux all the time these days and when they call him a communist, he explains what the policy actually means.

        The vast majority of our country want healthcare improved. And I stead of capitalizing on it, were letting trump be the only one who talks about fixing it. Knowing that half the voters are dumb enough to believe him

          I don’t want to link the same clip over and over but Bernie getting the whole Fox News Town Hall crowd to agree with him should have been the eye opener for the whole fucking party, not just mayor Pete.

          Because everyone believes the lie that socialized healthcare would be terrible because the corporate media is complicit in spreading it since forever. And they always will be, since the same people who owned the corporate media are also heavily invested in corporate healthcare.

      She was headed ‘in the right direction’ to get elected.

      She lied to get the job in the same way democrats were upset Kavanah, Gorsuch, and Coney Barrett did
