    Thank you for pointing out the Joe Biden, a man who dedicated himself to public service , is passing the torch to all of us. We can not sit back and hope for the best, we need to be part of the campaigning, give what we can , vote Blue and stay engaged. Just like the Greatest Generation fought fascism , we must do it now and here.

Theos whole point of bringing Trump on was bc of his concern about big pharma and hospitals getting away with charging whatever they want and Donald Trump just sat there, bald face lying, and all of the people in the comment section think they are voting for a man that is going to improve Healthcare when in fact he’s gonna throw 1 millions of Americans off of Healthcare!

Or "let's get rid of the single payer aspect before this even gets a vote in finance committee" with the ACA. Which turned a decent idea in to endorsing the problem while making it slightly less hostile to life.
      I have the same hope but gosh darn is an extra dose needed to break through the expectation of a fumble. Any amount of endorsing "bipartisanship" with policy will inevitably result in a Republican worse than Trump within 4 years because the plan will be destined to mediocrity, poisoned by people we have to admit are enemies using the power of government to destroy itself, which makes people pendulum away with the "just try the other guy" effect that "centrists" falsely claim credit for attracting with their 50% less garbage than Republicans plans.

They're sticking with a political line rather than saying what they personally feel. Somebody has to speak more forcibly about the tragedy that is Netanyahu as a leader in Israel. And we cannot continue to supply weapons and money if we're serious about a two state solution.

Because they need that money to campaign in all the races, to win. Cynical as that may sound (and it’s only my opinion), that’s unfortunately how politics works.
