80. Absolutely

Absolutely. I'm hard left as it gets. Like even more left than Sanders on some things. But I'll vote Blue in November even if it's someone like Bloomberg which I classify as center to center-right on the spectrum as any of them are miles better than the traitor in chief.

The big thing to be aware of is the Supreme Court. Even the least progressive Democrat could be depended upon to appoint a decent justice.

One difference though, if it's someone like Bloomberg I won't be donating money. Since he has plenty of his own. I'd only donate to those that are funded by way of grassroots organization like Sanders or Yang.

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