    Yep, he misspoke and clarified it afterwards. You think this misspoken statement represents all he stands for? That’s all you got on heem? A moment where he misspoke? Next.

    I could go on for days but what's the point. You have exactly the same football team mentality as Trump superfans except the politician you support is literally indefensible

    Lol whatever dipshit. Wanting people to have healthcare and not go into debt is indefensible? You’re f---ing dumb. I support policies that improve the lives of people. Bernie has stood up for those policies for years. Trumpers support his cult of personality. f--- off.

    Thats exactly what you do but with Bernie, you just lack the self awareness to realize it. You actually think the media hates this guy just because they're willing to criticize him. Delusional

    oh good god

    They s--- on Trump for not having the typical “civil decorum” as other presidents. They all put on a fake show and smile while bombing countries killing hundreds of thousands of innocent civilians and cutting programs for the needy. That’s what Bush did. And Obama. And Clinton. And Bush Sr. They give all the tax cuts to their Wall Street buddies. Trump does the same s--- they all did, but looks like a dumbass while doing it.

    The media actually prefer Trump‘s tax cuts for the rich and continuation of the wars to Bernie’s policies.

    They s--- on Bernie because he wants to change the system. He wants to tax the elites in the media and on Wall Street. He wants to reel in the military industrial complex. Bernie isn’t part of their big club like Trump actually is. He doesn’t run in elite circles. He has no rich buddies who are insiders. That’s why they hate Bernie.

    It’s not two sides of the same coin.

    But if you valued truth above all you wouldn't have come to those ridiculous conclusions, unless you're a. young and idealistic or b. just dumb.

    “Senator sanders, what do you say to the thousands of coal miners in Pennsylvania who will lose their job from your environmental policies?”

    “I’d tell them about the science...”

    I give credit to Sanders always being bluntly honest but that’s not a good answer from the democratic front-runner....

    Yeah, I'd rather a candidate be honest, but these are also the people who voted for Trump because they've been coal miners their whole life and their dad was a coal miner his whole life and his grandpa was a coal miner his whole life. That's the life they've known and Trump promised he was going to "bring back coal" or whatever, and whether that's true or not he's depicting himself as a friend of that type of industry.

    I read about a program in West Virginia a couple years ago that was teaching coal miners to code...but of course there's very limited positions to do that. And that's the type of thing we should be doing, is allocating money to train people who work in dying industries to work in new ones.

    Did I miss anything else important? I forgot it was on and didn't watch.

    I mean he’s right about the science i
    What Sanders said isn’t wrong but like it’s his phrasing of answers & straight forwardness that scares me at times. He could have talked about the booming renewable energy industry & how he wants to make it a priority to transition workers in coal mining & the fossil fuel industry into renewable energy jobs. He could have talked about how coal mining jobs have been disappearing for decades & despite Trump’s promises to save them—they’re still continuing to wither away. Made it emphasis to want to train these workers for the economy of the future. Simply saying “oh well...the science says this so sucks that you have to lose your job” is not how you win a general election lol.

    Besides Bloomberg putting up arguably the worst debate performance I’ve ever seen? Not too much lol. It was definitely the most hostile debate. Every candidate came looking for a fight. Warren ethering Bloomberg out the gate & every other candidate on stage teeing off on him was 10/10 though.



    Warren was the stand out imo. The rest of the candidates ranged from decent to good except Bloomberg who was a disaster lol.

    Warren stuck the knife in & everyone else just kept turning it lol. He looked so frustrated & overwhelmed. I don’t know if he just wasn’t prepared or if he just blanked but it was truly an abysmal performance lol.
