re: #5 Renaissance_Man

I will CL your post because it’s very true. With the current information environment, Republican narratives do not have to be based in reality. Americans will believe what they’re told to.

I’m not a Bernie fan. Americans will find an excuse to not vote for him, and they’ll find it by repeating random words that they hear and read. But that’s not why I’m not a fan - the same will be true of someone completely qualified like Elizabeth Warren, just like it was for another similarly qualified woman.

This is so true. In one debate, Mayor Pete made the argument that every Democrat was going to be called a socialist, whatever positions they take on issues. Of course, it doesn’t help when the candidate personally describes himself as one. But every single one will be demonized, regardless of their record.
