Real Talk LONG Rage Thread:

I try very hard to be ROTR compliant. But sometimes, you just have to call some shit out. Especially when there is so much at stake. Yes, I'm #TeamPete. But, I'm somewhat new to giving a damn about politics & my views are raw. And maybe we need raw.

Let's talk about the billionaires. Steyer and Bloomie. GIVE ME A GODDAMN BREAK. Neither one of them are effectual in any way except monetarily. Neither can debate worth a damn. Bloomie can barely grasp the english language - in fact, he's a TRUMP CLONE. Steyer is a bump on a log.

Sure, if you want a fucking TRUMP CLONE or a wallflower to run this country because they BOUGHT THE AMERICAN PRESIDENCY, keep supporting them. ALSO let's not forget that BLOOMIE is a goddamn RACIST BIGOT. He's a liar. HE IS NO DIFFERENT THAN TRUMP. Plenty of receipts out there.

Now, AMY. JFC. I don't get it. She is SUCH a whiny "I'm more important, look at me!" Candidate that the fact that she has the support she has astounds me. All she ever talks about is "I" "ME" - and let's face it, her RECORD ISN'T WORTH TOUTING. She's ragey & abusive to staff...

I saw in an article that she "couldn't be bothered" to take the time to really review the facts in the case in which she sent an innocent man to prison. She votes in favor of the Trump judges. Clearly, she "can't be bothered" to learn foreign relations or policy...

She talks AROUND this issue. Blaming exhaustion or whatever. Hey, lady, if you can't keep up the pace THEN GET THE FUCK OUT OF THE RACE. She's just not a good person. Period. She is SO far from anything resembling Presidential, it's just crazy that she's still in this race.

Fucking #ShadyLady Liz. She lies. She's a hypocrite extraordinaire. She (among others) steals Pete's stump VERBATIM - just like she did last night. She was all "NO PACs" And BOOM now she takes PAC $. Is she Native American or not? I mean COME ON. She's all "I was a teacher!!"..

Yeah, ok Liz. YOU TAUGHT FOR A FUCKING YEAR. Of course there was the Harvard professor thing but whatever. She flip flops constantly -- esp on the topic of M4A, which was her THING until she woke up and realized it wouldn't work and then, again, commandeered Pete's M4AWWI...

She makes me CRAZY, acting like she's such a relatable Oklahomian, BUT SHE IS NOT. She's not been back there for a long time and talking about paw-paw and maw-maw just makes her sound like she's trying too hard. While she may be a good Senator (is she?)

Neither she or Amy are SUITABLE for POTUS. I'm a woman, I want to see a woman in the WH. BUT NOT THESE WOMEN. It doesn't feel right.

Uncle Joe. I don't really have a lot here. I think he's tired. I think he's no longer got the moxie or stamina to be POTUS. He's got a name, and is generally a nice dude. He will be ineffectual as President. That's just the way it is. He's not done well in the early states...

I *think* other campaigns done enough to push him down in SC. It's kind of up in the air for him. I will say that his attack at on Pete was RIDICULOUS, especially after Pete defended his son so vehemently. My wish is that he bows out and backs Pete...which would be heroic.

And now we're on to Bernie. I don't get the whole Bernie attraction and I never will. He's making empty promises to the youth of this nation who seek revolution. He will not be able to deliver. Everyone knows it, even his goddamn camp. HE HAS NO WAY TO PAY FOR HIS PLANS, folks...

His campaign and supporters have proven to be toxic beyond reproach. He becomes easily flustered in debate. And, here's the deal -- HE IS 78! HE HAS HAD A HEART ATTACK in recent months. He has walk-backed on his promise to release medical records, even just the ejection fraction.

SO, we would assume, that if he won't release even that number, the number MUST be unfavorable. RIGHT? I mean this is LOGIC, people. Also, we've seen the essay he wrote in the 70's about a woman's fantasy of group rape and shit....I don't really get the context of the essay...

WHICH was very poorly written, BESIDES being just offensive to women, period. AND THIS IS OUR 'front runner"?? OMFG. He, too, is NO DIFFERENT THAN THE FUCKER WE ALREADY HAVE IN THE WH! JFC he's not even a Dem. His radicalism is NOT the REVOLUTION we need...

His "reign" would be no different and possibly even WORSE than Trump. If he even SURVIVED the term. I'm sorry but HELLO, we have grandparents and parents of that age that we've got in a HOME because of mental and physical decline. AND THIS IS OUR FRONT-RUNNER? Wake up, America.

Now, we're on to Pete, whom I favor. Is he perfect? Nope. BUT, he's willing to work on it. And I don't want to hear DICK in the comments about his inexperience BECAUSE he DOES have experience. EXECUTIVE experience. Serving in the senate IS NOT EXECUTIVE EXPERIENCE!

You think Pete couldn't write a "damn bill"? HA. With his eyes closed. I actually think the Senate is BENEATH his skill set and would be a waste. For the American voters to say "he needs experience" before the WH is a CROCK OF SHIT. Mayors are DIRECTLY responsible for EVERYTHING.

Budget. Constituents. Staff. Disasters. Infrastructure. DIRECTLY RESPONSIBLE. Senators are NOT. So, what, besides age, makes any of the Senators more "experienced" than Pete? Just because they've had a DC presence. FUCK THAT NOISE.

I posit that what the COUNTRY NEEDS is a DC outsider. A NON-MILLIONAIRE with boots-on-the ground EXPERIENCE who can actually relate to the American people. Oh, and not to mention, HE HAS SERVED IN THE MILITARY. He KNOWS what the Troops and their families go through...

AND he actually RESPECTS THEM. He will NOT send our Troops into battle with out JUST CAUSE. He WANTS to stop endless war. What a concept. And people want him to have "more experience" because he's young? Again, FUCK THAT NOISE. It's a total cop-out to even say that shit.

I don't want to hear about his relationship with POC. Ummm, have you read the Douglass Plan? Have you ACTUALLY researched the work he's done in South Bend? By that, I don't mean listening to Pundits or groups who try to fight on behalf of SB WHO DO NOT LIVE THERE!

IF you haven't researched the #voicesofsouthbend or bothered to speak with the residents there, and choose only to believe those who have 1) lost an election to Pete OR 2) were DEMOTED by PETE because of a FEDERAL WIRE TAPPING investigation, THEN SIT THE FUCK DOWN.

Pete is clean. He's a fighter. He's calm & brilliant. AND HE CAN PAY FOR ALL OF HIS PLANS, with M4AWWI in the + & its the only plan IN THE POSITIVE. If you discount him because of age or perceived lack of POC support, then WE DO NOT DESERVE HIM and America MISSES OUT.

What a damn shame it would be to MISS OUT on the ONE CANDIDATE who can actually DEFEAT TRUMP. The ONE CANDIDATE who can restore America's reputation. The ONE CANDIDATE who can turn this country around. He gets my vote. I hope he gets yours. God help us all if we lose this guy.

Now, while I apologize for being rage-filled, I will not apologize for my words. I warned you it would be raw. I know there are a lot of people who feel this way but haven't said them. I'm sick of holding it inside every time I see LIES and DECEIT coming out of this party!
