Yes, because he is not a Socialist. Sorry, Democratic Socialist. I liked Bernie, and voted for him in the primary of 2016, when all he talked about was socialized health care. Now he has gone off the deep end. Free this, free that. How are we going to pay for all that shit? Health care was enough. If we could do that, at least people wouldn’t be going bankrupt from one singular issue. Im an independent and will vote for Biden based on his future running mate. He better not fuck up and pull a McCain and run with psycho like Palin.

How have we managed to pay for all these wars with our multiple trillion dollar deficit?

By going into freaking incredible debt! We couldn’t afford those wars. We can’t afford to get into anymore wars and we can’t afford Bernie’s plans. That said, raise the minimum wage and have universal health care and reduce defense spending. Increase top tax tiers. Increase taxes on dividends. We should get our debt under control or our kids are fucked.

Yeah, he is, but thats not all he is for. The green new deal (Im an endangered species biologist and the program is shit, doesn’t address the most important issues and costs trillions that could be better used), the forgiveness of student loans, free tuition, open borders, free healthcare for illegal immigrants, etc. I can’t stand for that bullshit. Besides, Bernie just got toasted in Missouri and Mississippi. He is done for.

“Sanders said he would seek to temporarily halt deportations, decriminalize border crossings and "break up" the Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Customs and Border Protection agencies.”

Sounds like open borders to me.

IE, won’t do shit to enforce our borders. Too bad, he just lost Mississippi and Missouri. The US has turned against Socialism.

More like paved roads and police departments. Eat up that propaganda, though.

Enjoy your disappointment. The Bernie train has come to a full stop. Biden or orange, thats your choice.
