A politician named Bernie Sanders was trying to increase taxes on the wealthiest 1%, but the DNC stopped him.

Claudia B. Vasquez: Mohamed Mohamed Nabil right on.

Ann Claire Baber: Mohamed Mohamed Nabil I feel like shouting this from the rooftops. Now that we’re in the General the moderate Dems are trying to appeal to my progressive side “but look Biden has environmental stuff on his platform! And healthcare!” And I’m like “first none of those policies will be enough to actually get anything done but glad their presence on the platform makes you feel good about yourself  but also if you cared about ANY OF THAT before you’d have voted for Bernie.” It makes me so mad.

Trump doesn’t care about the “political reality”, he’ll keep touting lies & his supporters will keep loving it.

Beth Carver Berzanskis: Mohamed Mohamed Nabil it’s amazing how his supporters don’t realize that he wants to be a dictator-type leader; he wants to use the military against American citizens (and already did during his Bible pic) who don’t agree with him .. why do they think that he will do anything different to them when they start to see that their freedoms are disappearing .. it just astounds me.

Marsha T Wallace: Mohamed Mohamed Nabil he does have an ego…

Nancy Willis: Mohamed Mohamed Nabil No argument.

Beth Carver Berzanskis: Nancy Willis I especially LOVE “They can’t stand being told what to do, but they’re cheering for domination.” I think it says it all.
