I like the clean campaign finance one though. Funny thing is once the money starts coming in these types of politicians tend to stop prioritizing that one. :laugh:

The ****ing monster. How dare she!

In all seriousness, none of her vision sounds much different than Nordic models. The part that makes me laugh is hearing all the people who are completely silent about Trump's massive debt he's piling up in the Federal deficit complain about how much debt she will cause. You kind of lost the right to complain about wild spending if you support it now.

I know that the idea of helping people sounds crazy, as does the idea of "where is this money going to come from?!" as we cut the tax rate of corporations and the wealthy yet again scares people, but it's not as farfetched as people make it sound. Well, not as farfetched provided we don't do another cut to the wealthy's taxes. So I guess you're right, she is really going for some pie in the sky stuff if she thinks that will ever stop.

She wants more taxpayer dollars so she can pay her employees more. The type of women that would give you the shirt off of someone else's back.

I'd rather she take the shirt off my back than Trump, at least with her I know the shirt will go to someone who needs it.

Seriously, all you have is yells of Socialist. It's boring. It's old. It's cliché.

Remember when you thought the MAGAbomber was a leftist false-flagger?

I think his issue is that you have this made up bogeyman image of what a socialist is to replace what she’s actually arguing for.

Which if you’re against makes you a total ******* lol

Like what, that they live on pipe dreams and create massive governments? Never once argued that it doesn't sound good.

No, not in the traditional red commie Russia/China sense. In the Nordic model of Democratic Socialism/Regulated Capitalism? I'd say about 75% there.

Seasoned politicians just make promises they know they can't keep and find a way to blame the other party. The kid is worse than they are.

It's all about empty claims and promises!

I don't like her, at all. But I think it's funny, she's the trumpiest socialist ever and the right hates her for it.

It is really funny for all these people to run up against someone who actually knows what social media is and how to use it. She’s their kryptonite.

Okay, now tell me how you plan on paying for it. Abolish ICE? LMFAO, yeah, of course she wants that. Free college/healthcare? Sure. Tell me how you plan on PAYING for it. Higher taxes? Are some of you guys that clueless? Nordic models are proving to be unsustainable. Sweden isn't a "socialist" country and hit back at Bernie for continuously claiming they were. Norway's fortunate to have crazy natural resources subsidizing their economy but they are already predicting that it's unsustainable. Her ideas are not unsustainable and will not get passed. Abolish ICE, that's funny. She doesn't think government should do something. She thinks government should do EVERYTHING. And tell me otherwise.

Kryptonite? Lol. Maybe for liberal media pushing the story but she'll never survive a debate against someone competent. Her "you just pay for it" argument will run dry when people realize it's impossible.
