60. I have one question, who did Ms. Turner vote for in the general election?

Those self-identified progressives who refused to vote for Hillary, insured what we have now.

Everyone knew that trump was a racist and a sexist. They knew the Supreme Court, Civil Rights, the environment, health care, student loans, etc. was at stake, and still they these self-identified progressives refused to vote for Hillary.

I think Noam Chomsky said it best: Progressives who refused to vote for Hillary Clinton made a ‘bad mistake’

"“I think they [made] a bad mistake,” said Chomsky, who reiterated that it’s important to keep a “greater evil” from obtaining power, even if you’re not thrilled with the alternative. “I didn’t like Clinton at all, but her positions are much better than Trump’s on every issue I can think of.”

Chomsky also attacked the arguments made by philosopher Slavoj Zizek, who argued that Trump’s election would at least shake up the system and provide a real rallying point for the left.

“[Zizek makes a] terrible point,” Chomsky told Hasan. “It was the same point that people like him said about Hitler in the early ’30s… he’ll shake up the system in bad ways.”

After the way Hillary was treated by these self-identified progressives who refused to vote for Hillary, the media, the republicans, the right, and the FBI, don't count on those DEMOCRATS who knew what the stakes were this election, and voted for Hillary.

Ms. Turner did you also notice that Russ Feingold, Zyper Teachout, and every Democrat running for the Senate in a swing state lost against the establishment republican incumbent.

All three branches of government are now controlled by perhaps the most draconian group of gangsters as evidenced by the make up of the trump team.

This WAS a generational election, and it will take a generation or more to reverse the damage.

That the country could not depend on those self-identified progressives that refused to vote for Hillary, their actions have just condemned the issues they profess to care about.
