    Ugh. Further proof a quick stroll and some USA hats is all that it is needed to appease half this country.

    if there's a time for her to start moving closer to where people want, it's probably wise to start now

    if you want a real adventure down the toilet bowl check out One America News Network. They are catering towards the people who feel that Fox News and Breitbart have gone soft. It's basically North Korea style state tv.

    Here's a viral hit where they went with the "did you know it was Republicans who abolished slavery and Democrats who founded the KKK" talking point. Leaving out that whole time in the 60s where the parties flipped.



    The worst is the canned debates - they'll have on some poor political science major, label them a "Democrat Strategist" and just mop the floor with them.

    And since no company would ever buy advertising all of the ads are pro GOP / anti-Clinton propaganda. It's really the closest thing we to state run media.

  10. I'd say people attacking her even when she's co-sponsoring exactly what they purport to want, for co-sponsoring what they want, is pretty #transparentaf.

    Frankly I'm focused on 2018 and the quandary that is Dianne Feinstein's age/senate seat/committee seniority

    My money is still on one of these three tickets, assuming Bernie runs...

    Bernie/Booker
    Bernie/Frankin
    Bernie/Harris

    Darkhorse is Bernie/Gillibrand

    Warren/Brown
    Warren/Harris
    Booker/Franken
    Merkley/Gillibrand

    Any of these will suffice

    It won't be Bernie, and honestly I hate to say it but it probably shouldn't be

    I don't think she runs, and I think she's a bad candidate if she does. I love her but I can understand why she grates on so many people "in the middle". She's also not exactly a skilled politician....she's great at prepared remarks and prepared questions for committees, but I question how well she'd do in a live debate setting an the like.

    I could see her as a VP pick maybe, but I also don't want her wasted in a do nothing position like VP when she could be heading up some committee in the senate.

    I think he wins the primary if he runs. There will be so much energy behind him this time around, and unlike last time he won't be up against one establishment, pre-crowned candidate.


    If he doesn't run, I kind of like him as a VP pick, but also liek Warren would hate to see him wasted as a VP instead of as a senator doing shit in the senate.

    guys we need to play "who will primary the fuck out of feinstein?"

    also, i'm not sure if she actually got booed at the commonwealth club the other day, but she definitely said it's only been 8 months we need to wait and see if DT's presidency is a failure, i mean lol
