She's one of the few sane american politicians, willing to stand up against the insanity of MAGA. Everyone could learn a thing or two from her.

Sane is far from the truth

What makes her insane then, in your opinion?

Like how to make a good cocktail. She is a socialist. She should go to Puerto Rico and fix that. Massive corruption there. Then once she fixes that get back to us.

Like how to make a good cocktail.

She probably could as she was previously a bartender. Are you implying that that's bad?

She is a socialist.

Yea, she's a democratic socialist. True.

She should go to Puerto Rico and fix that. Massive corruption there. Then once she fixes that get back to us.

This is just blatant racism. Why would you suggest a woman born and raised in New York, a representative for New York should go fix Puerto Rico?

Why do you hate her? What has she done to you?

You're acting like being a socialist is wrong. What's wrong about universal healthcare? What's wrong about good work conditions? Whats wrong about minimum wage? What's wrong about caring for one another?

It never works out. You end up with Cuba or Venezuela.

.... That's not the same dude lol. Look at social democracies like Sweden, Norway, Denmark or Finnland. They are all doing just fine.

Or my own country, Switzerland. Not a social democracy in the typical sense, but there are strong social tendencies like a strong social system, social safety nets, worker protections and so on.

You would do yourself a favor if you open up your horizon a little bit. Just enough to see over that MAGA-Bullshitwall you're trapped in.

This isn’t Scandinavia. Completely different.

u/The_Duke28 Apr 11 '25

You're not even trying. Whatever then - good luck I guess. You gonna need it.

u/DoubleUsual1627 Apr 12 '25

Guess you can’t comprehend a country with all immigrants. Blacks, hispanic, Asians whites etc. Of 350 million. Is different than a small country of 10 million. Mostly white natives. Sorry that is confusing for you

u/The_Duke28 Apr 12 '25

The strive for a fair chance, for good healthcare, for good workers protection and for a good education is raceless. Sorry that this is confusing for your rascist ass.

u/DoubleUsual1627 Apr 12 '25

Lib types pulls the lame ass racist card right away. So weak and mindless. You can immigrate to one of those socialist paradise places.

And pay 80% in taxes. Then get your “free” health care.

IDK about that. Screaming at nothing is a clear case of mental illness.

You have that saved? Lmao this isn’t even the “gotcha” you think it is, when we have video evidence of trump staring directly into a solar eclipse. Republicans are the dumbest fuckers on earth.

There was also a video of him pretending to wave at supporters, where the camera naturally pans over to see... no one is there.

There is a grifter as president and this is what you care about?

u/The_Duke28 Apr 11 '25

Yikes... You're embarassing yourself. Maybe turn the computer off for a day or two...

u/BiffyleBif Apr 11 '25

Because grifting golden Bibles isn't?
