ya the policies and views that lestat has supported are like the furthest thing from bernies policies. I mean, itt alone he has repeatedly beat the drum for fiscal conservatism and lowering corporate taxes. I dont see how he can turn around and claim to prefer bernie when a huge part of bernies campaign was to go after billionaires and corporations.

Oh **** yes, I am so happy to see this. **** Reichert, this should almost certainly be a flipped district now.

The primary for that seat will be incredible

Without a Verrit code, I don't know how I'm supposed to verify that this screenshot is real.

Why can't Hillary go the **** away?

who?

This Verrit site is incredibly stupid. I don't see the need for its existence.

I just 5 minutes clicking around Verrit and I'm legitimately angry that people are going to make money off of something this stupid.

I guess at best it's like a much dumber version of Vox's 'explain the news' concept, (which they've mostly abandoned)? Except instead of starting with a question or topic to work through, they start with a mostly randomly selected quote (that they tag with a unique number that doesn't do anything?) then blog about it for a minute.

At least the tagline makes it clear from the start that it's nothing more than a giant circlejerk for Hillary Clinton voters.

That's a lot of mad about a site some of us would have never heard of if you guys weren't up in arms.

It's more that Clinton pimped it out during a time where she is also pimping a 500+ page book she wrote blaming everybody but herself for losing the election. Given the content of the page she's advertising and her current attitude, it seems like she's going, "See all the things I was right about by going to this website! Bet you wish I was POTUS!"

Now that she lost, she needs to retire and stay retired. Her presence solidifies Trumpers more than anything else in this world. The only way she can empower the Democratic Party is to no longer be a part of it.

Well, I mean, it seems like the attention for that site comes from people upset over it. As someone who did vote and support Clinton I have no intention of keeping up with her any longer as she is no longer a pony in any race. I'm gonna throw out a wild guess and say that most Clinton voters/supporters are looking for another candidate than her.

ya she really needs to stfu and go the **** away. speaking as a hillary clinton voter

You guys are just too simple minded to realize that a). It's possible to care about more than one thing at a time, and b). There is almost always more than one solution to a problem.

I'm for lowing corporate tax. Not the uber wealthy like most every hard right conservative GOP. Raising personal taxes on the 1% will force them to share more of the profits with their employees who's backs their wealth was built on. As it is, they get away with paying part time slave wages to their workers and hoard all the profits for themselves and shareholders. Increasing their tax rate will give them incentive to share the wealth.

Who do you think is going to spend more and stimulate the economy? The worker who gets an extra $10-$20k a year? Or the billionaire who add another billion to his wealth? Of course, it's the employee with an extra $10k in disposable income.

It's ironic that the ultra libs here accuse me of parroting right wing talking points when that's ALL everyone here does on the left! You are closed minded to anything that isn't repeated over and over in this useless echo chamber you've got here. At least I think for myself. You guys are literal puppets for leftist propaganda and your answer to anyone who disagrees with you is simply to ban them because you're too brainwashed to have a reasoned conversation about real remedies to problems.

You've got to be kidding. He was kept off ballots and intentionally left out of the conversation until sometimes a week before the primaries. The media wouldn't give him the time of day. The Dems didn't want another contender because in their minds Clinton was the Democratic nominee right from the start.

You're a ****ing fool if you think this. If anything, Sanders went out of his way to be soft on HRC. He could've hit her a lot harder on emails and many other things. HE'S THE ONE who said enough with the emails already. Let's talk about real issues.

lol ok, go on...

most of the 1% make their money via capital gains, where lowering corporate tax rates will only put more money in their pockets. this paragraph is absolute gibberish

uhh, yes, the avg worker spends most of his money instead of saving it like the top 1% do

you really just have no idea what you're talking about, and its hilarious that you get all defensive about people saying you parrot right wing talking points all the time when thats literally what youre doing in. this. exact. post. HERP DERP LOWER CORPORATE TAX RATES TO CREATE JOBS AND RAISE WAGES

just stfu with your disingenuous bull****, you are either incredibly dishonest or entirely clueless. i lean towards the former

oh look, no correlation whatsoever between lowering the effective corporate tax rate and wage growth amongst average workers. looks like the top 1% are doing a lot better tho- so once again, shut the **** up with this dumbass republican bull****
