22. Sanders

Thu Feb 20, 2020, 09:13 AM

Feb 2020

If he is nominated, he will go from a democratic socialist to a full blown “commie” by trump. He hasn’t provided much on his Medicare for all as far as what it would cost except to say it will raise taxes on the middle class. We will lose. Don’t count on college students to come out in waves, not gonna happen. We will lose the suburban women we got back in 2018. I don’t mind the idea of Bernie BEING president, I just don’t think he can get elected. And of course I’ll vote for whomever the nominee is.
