And other single-payer challengers (against bad dems and/or repubs) have announced runs in states like WI and UT. just bc you claim the left is sitting on its butt doesn't make it true. In fact, that you're saying poo poo like this is reason to believe it's false.

Get enough of them together and all the sudden it's on the floor...

Bernie's campaign for minimum wage increases was successful in multiple cities, no thanks to bad dems who whined about the impact on precious small business owners. Don't care about workers or middle class, get rid of them.
