(3,335 posts)get things done. The establishment GOP, try as they may, see the handwriting on the wall. They know that their constituents are pissed at them. They can't afford to continue sitting on their hands doing nothing while the enonomy stagnates. Today, we are officially in a Bull Market and shortly, will be in a full blown recession because Wall St is starting to panic and Bank stocks are tumbling. That's been the entire discussion this morning on CNBC. It's not enough that the US had been doing better than its European allies markets financially. We live in a global economy, and when Europe gets a cold, the US gets the flu. Saudia Arabia has concerns as well and China now has pneumonia.
After this long and contentious primary season is done, voters are going to want someone who can get things done. Bernie has been sitting in Congress for more than 30 years and has nothing to show for it. After getting the nation's youth all riled up he's now admitting that he won't be able to get any of his agenda through Congress until he has a Democatic House and Senate. Well no shit Sherlock. Where has he been the past 7+ years. It is disengenuous of him to know, after he has raised all these hopes to now state that he doesn't think any of his promises will happen in his first term.
Bye Bernie.
