From your favorite pseudowoke Kinja publication, The Root, Sanders and his supporters truly believe that America’s favorite disheveled tax preparer has the best chance of dethroning President Donald Trump next year.

Not with this one, the entire point was to file suit and post the filing on the internet. I'm guessing he found some a chud Avenatti type lawyer Avenazi who wants to cash out of practicing law (because poo poo like this is a great way to end up disbarred in KY and refused pro hac vice admission in all other courts by making every judge fully aware you intend to use their courtroom as a loving circus) and get on that fat pulsating chud welfare gravytrain.

Expect a "fund my dumb loving lawsuit" gofundme any day now.

IDK, I think the media still does a pretty bang-up job of turning a turd sandwich into a poo poo avalanche, and IIRC a lot of the issues surrounding the DNA test were disingenuously targeted (shocking, I know). Sanders could've used his platform to bolster a candidate like Warren and draw attention to where the media is being lovely about their coverage, but instead-- eehh. I'm not super enthusiastic about it.

I'd just like one election to go by where we're not talking about wardrobe and likability. Like, just one.

Also, whoever said '$15/hour should be the floor you work up from on a state by state basis' is correct.

Pretty much how I'm feeling as well.

I'm pulling for Warren unless Duckworth suddenly decides she wants to run. I don't dislike Sanders, but I like Warren a hell of a lot more for whatever reason.

The interview he gave CBS today when he announced he was running was pretty good in that when they asked him about his age, he didn't have an entirely poo poo answer. Still, he's oldddddd.

Yeah, my dad, who has gone Stockholm about the Republican party since it started to go full-on scorched earth, sure as gently caress doesn't, and he's supposed to be a smarty-pants business major*. It's loving depressing.

On the upside, he hates Trump, but still feebly pulls out the 'but not all his economic policies are bad' line, so, that's where we are. Midwest.txt

I think "green new deal" is as detailed as any of them have gotten. Which, mind, isn't awful or anything this early and we're hosed pretty bad unless they figure a way to pull billions of tons of CO2 from the atmosphere way faster than trees can, but slowing carbon output along multiple fronts is an all right start. At the very least it shrinks the required mitigation needed once we figure out how to yank those billions of tons of CO2 out of the atmosphere.

Needs three Indias worth of productive land reforested. The arbor day foundation loves giving out seedlings btw.
