Because Cenk Uygur was correct ... earthside Dec 2016 #52
yeah had he only saved it all from that POS I wouldn't mind rbrnmw Dec 2016 #53
It is interesting to see the GOP toadies of M$M pretending Trump was not the M$M's favorite son, and Bill USA Dec 2016 #56

again who's fault is that. do you object to something that ended up being in Clinton's campaign or JCanete Jan 2017 #111

I'm sorry, for my money, as a Democrat myself, he was a Dem. Shouldn't those of us in the party JCanete Jan 2017 #113
IMO he may as well have been running as a third party because he attacked the party continuously brush Jan 2017 #114
oh, you're all in the talking points zone I see. His platform certainly didn't neglect people of JCanete Jan 2017 #115
Blah de blah blah blah. If those people didn't listen to and vote according to trumps dog whistles.. brush Jan 2017 #116
I would say its about a two-party system being a fairly undemocratic condition that we find JCanete Jan 2017 #117
