Hell YEAH! Again, how is it that an individual who's been in elected office
IN Washington DC, ON Capitol Hill, from 1991 to this very hour - how is such an individual NOT part of “the establishment”?Somebody’s gotta help me understand the reasoning there.
If you’re truly “anti-establishment,” doesn’t it follow that you maintain a DISTANCE from that entity and avoid being any part of it or maintaining a job title or long-running position of prominence within it?
It's not you so much as it is the track record of 2016
and the sore losers who chose to throw their votes AND our country away in spite votes for Jill Stein and other “busts” in the “Bernie or bust” reaction.
They did. It happened. We noticed. I’ll never forget the guy my husband knew, with the Bernie bumper sticker on the back of his car, who, after Hillary was nominated, slapped a Jill Stein sticker over it, at an angle so you could still see enough of the “Bernie” wording underneath. I spotted that and decided I didn’t want to talk to him anymore.
Those are the ones in his Cabinet and campaign offices.
And after all that he's STILL gonna be searching the world for somebody - anybody -
who’ll tell him what he wants to hear.
That’s his M.O.
It won’t matter what level of expert tries to get through to him. He wants an instant “fix” and he wants it NOW. Yesterday. Next week at the latest. So he wins himself extra bragging rights about how HE ALONE was able to get everybody off their asses and speeding toward a quickie-instant magic cure. You know, like you see ‘em do on TV! The problems all get solved, miraculously, before the ending credits and closing theme music!
And he can be proved right again, as usual, that the miraculous cure was indeed just right around the corner!
Must be nice to have such a simplistic mind. Everything is sooooooo simple and all problems get solved in a mere 15 minutes, max. That you can just make miracles happen by sheer force of will.
Interesting speculation.
Lordy I don’t want her anywhere near power. She’s probably gonna run someday, though. She’s ambitious as hell. And she’s quite cunning and calculating.
I still don't see how Bernie is NOT part of the "establishment" he claims to despise.
Since 1991 he’s been solidly ensconced in the House and then the Senate. Til this very day. That’s almost 30 years of elected office on Capitol Hill.
How does that not qualify as part of the “dreaded” “establishment”?
And in all that time, he’s led the fight to rename - what? Two post offices? wow...
That's hilarious!
And when questioned, Pence will fall back on the
“well this is the first I’ve heard of it” response.
