201. Hello Cha! I hve no use for any of them either. And since Nina is from Ohio and I voted for her

Sat Feb 23, 2019, 08:56 AM

Feb 2019

Nina Turner supported Stein in 16 and folks like her cost us the election in my opinion. I am particularly angry and disappointed in her. She supported the greens and Stein over Hillary and basically said she wouldn't support Sherrod Brown even though he is progressive because he supported Hillary...he would have 'earn' his place at the grass roots level. People like her...Our Revolution and Justice Democrats don't work for the good of the party or even the country and will cost us elections if we are not on guard...look at the Feinstein video which was doctored. In my opinion, folks like Turner and Sarandon cost us 16 and now we have a judges that will kneecap a progressive agenda for decades...one these folks claim to support. All I can say is talk is cheap.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
