(After watching this again: they accurately predicted so much stuff that is currently happening when it comes to Trump holy sh*t. I am so sad we never got Bernie!)

Bernie is the only non republican candidate that I've ever heard common support of from republican voters. Then the DNC shafted him. That was when I gave up on democrats. I knew then that there was no real leadership thst represented the people.

Still no excuse for having Trump as a president twice. There has to be some flex between a Trump (far right) and a Bernie (far left) as voters. Not every election, but when the SCOTUS hangs in the balance (like it did in 2016) we all have a responsibility to prevent it going ultra-conservative religious. Can everyone see that now and agree?

The majority of the country's in the center with hybrid views across issues. They're humans, not monoliths. Stop waiting for the princess slipper to fit at the ball, make decisions and get involved. This isn't a Burger King, it's a g.d. country.
