Trump SC will neutralize the Bernie Sanders movement... [View all]

He worked all these years, Bernie, to accomplish Democratic Socialist goals, people like myself have supported him and very much want to see single payer and the like, and now, with Trump as president, everything Bernie tries to do will be either stopped before it becomes law or if it becomes law the Trump Supreme Court will just legislate from the bench and nullify like they did to voting rights.

Oh well...

You can google his SC appointments that he intends to make...I wont, it is too depressing, I have already heard that it would be as bad as Scalia or WORSE
