    That’s nice, Bernie. Now can you please stop voting to confirm Trump’s nominees?

    It’ll be easier for people to believe he’s not a king when you stop bowing to him.

      Is he actually confirming the nominees?

          I think this might be because they’re worried that if Rubio doesn’t get it that Trump will nominate someone even worse.

            I don’t care. We cannot continue this ’lesser evil’ bullshit. Look where it’s gotten us.

              Ignoring the “lesser evil” route got us Trump and his cabinet. Good for us. Things will get much worse much more quickly. There’s not going to be a revolution or some great reset. Just oppression. Hard miserable oppression.

                Both candidates were openly supporting genocide in the last presidential election. Neither were a lesser evil.

                  So you are saying things would be exactly as bad had Harris or Biden won?

                    I’m saying both would’ve committed the same crime, and killed just as many Palestinians.

                    I’m a socialist. I don’t participate in the Red & Blue MAGA obsession over which flavor of demagogue should be empowered and worshipped.

                  That’s outright not true. You can claim Kamala wouldn’t have tried hard enough to stop the genocide but she did NOT openly support it.

          Bernie never fails to disappoint when he is needed.
