Yes, I know Shaun King has a…checkered history in many respects. Nonetheless, how would you explain these poll results, and more importantly what should be DONE to change them?

I’m not sure but I know the blame lies squarely with people like Shaun King, Michael Moore, Bernie Sanders, Wil Wheaton, Rosario Dawson, Cornel West, Susan Sarandon & Jill Stein, who all to varying degrees worked overtime to tear down the Democratic Party last year. They all bought hook, line & sinker into the Russian electoral rat-fucking efforts and amplified the lie that the primary elections were rigged.

Yes, some of them came around and fought for Hillary at the end but only after they’d inflicted incalculable levels of damage to both her candidacy and the Democratic Party. They deliberately drove a cancerous wedge between the far left and the only group inclined to actually listen to and ally with them on the policies they care about. So Shaun may have half a point, but it’s about a problem he deliberately incubated. The first thing he can do to fix it is admit that he wasn’t just wrong, but was wrong in a way that millions of others are now paying for with their basic equality, lives and safety.
