Yeah he’ll get right on that, Bernie again being all bark. Please Americans find a young leftist, someone who is under 80

Yeah fuck Bernie for being old and representing this place for 50+ years fighting on our behalf as one of the few sane representatives we have, fuck that guy. Fuck him for his consistency and willingness to stand up and say what no one else does. Fuck him for not being your version of perfect. Yeah! Fuck him!

I'm so sick of people pissing on Bernie, literally making perfection the enemy of good while we have a fucking fascist pedo in charge. Maybe just maybe we can agree once in a while, despite Bernie not looking young enough for everyone.

He's constantly introducing legislation that reflects what he says. What do you expect him to do? Strange these people with his bare hands?

He does that also. He spoke in the small decaying city I live in and hosted a rally featuring many local mutual aid organizations and leaders. This was about a month ago. Then there was a large block party outside the venue in the alley where everyone could mingle and connect over what he just spoke about.

Definitely not, but as far as what an old man can do, this is it. So I'm not mad at him.

When I first heard of him, I had an open mind, and then I heard him speak.

His voice sounds like years of chain smoking, drinking, and shoddy home first aid.

Idk why anyone would listen to and see him speak and think "wow he can be trusted to help us be healthier".

Because most of us were aware that his voice was due to a neurological disorder called spasmodic dysphonia.

Don't get be wrong, there's still a long list of reasons based on his actions and public past behavior as to why he shouldn't've been considered.

Its just basic common sense that a brain-worm riddled zombie person shouldnt be allowed to serve as a health secretary, yet here we are
