Can we please stop asking why Democrats didn't codify Roe v Wade.

This is a breakdown of Congressional Majorities for the last 28 years, since 1995

The GOP in RED
Dems in Blue
Presidents + Congressional majorities are shown by color and include percentage of House & Senate. Since 1995 in 28 years:

16 years Democratic President
6 years Clinton
8 years Obama
2 years Biden

4 of those 16 years with a Democratic President, we had a Democratic Congressional majority.

also, keep in mind, under Obama and prior, we had a lot of Pro-Life Blue Dogs.

WHY does the Democratic nominee always have to pander, and have a PLAN for their specific group?

Republicans don't give a SHIT about anybody but their own white wealthy Americans.... Yet, the Democrats have to have a 5 page plan for LGBT, for Immigration, for women. etc.. etc.. Here, let me help you all out...

On LGBT:
The GOP wants Gay Marriage BANNED gain, and would in a heartbeat of they could.

On Immigration:
The GOP wants to DEPORT every person they can, and shut the doors behind them.

On Women:
The GOP wants to FORCE women to stay pregnant.

If this was a serious accusation, it would have been handled MUCH better than it was.

The reason witnesses are contacted BEFORE the story comes out, is so that it won't appear as if their memories were tainted with the story being told. a REAL journalist would have waited to release the story, when all the ducks were in a row, and contacted the "witnesses" BEFORE story is printed, asking:

Did you know Tara?

In your words, what did she tell you about her days working with Joe Biden?

I am so sick of the argument that the Democrats didn't do enough for the KIDS and that is why they are angry.

Let me demolish this argument as well.

a THREAD:

Politics..

Decisions are made by those who Show Up!!!!

and guess what.... KIDS don't show up.

It's that simple.

OK, I am going to DESTROY this argument ONCE again.

Bernie this is bullshit!!!! Just STOP with this tired attack line.

Joe did NOT order the attack on Iraq, Bush did.

Joe didn't plan the military strategy, Bush did.

If Joe had been president at the time, he would NOT have attacked Iraq.

Joe's vote was NOT the tie breaker..
Joe's NOT responsible, Bush is.

I’m so SICK of people claiming health care in Sweden is free.
NO, it’s NOT FREE!

Yes, it’s cheap, but we still have to pay for it at TIME of service
This goes for the poor and the elderly as well.

I can't pick up a prescription right now, cuz, I literally can't afford it. Granted, the prescriptions I need to pick up, would only cost me about $100, but... if you don't have the money, you don't get prescriptions.

Same goes for Dr's visits, if you don't have the money to pay, you can't see a Dr, that can cost $20 - $40

Joe's NOT responsible, Bush is. It did NOT matter how that Iraq Authorization vote would have turned out.. Bush was going to attack Iraq with it or without it.

Bush had lawyers already giving him cover to do what he wanted.

Bush was set to attack Iraq NO matter what.

So, I had some problems just finding the 2016 Primary election numbers and percentages so I could create a sort of graph showing how Hillary beat Bernie and how he lost in March.

here is what I did find. 2016 Primary
State / Total Delegates / Percent of vote / Delegates Won

February 1st:

Iowa Caucus - # Delegates 44
Hillary 49.8% / Del = 23 — Bernie 49.6% / Del = 21

February 9th:

New Hampshire - # Delegates 24 -
Hillary 37.7% / Del= 9 = — Bernie 60.1% / Del = 15

Ok, I have been planning this for a while, so here it goes.

A THREAD on why I hate Bernie: Keep in mind, Bernie lost April 19th with a huge defeat in NY, where he lost to Hillary by 16 points
58% to 42%

Trump won the GOP nomination on May 4th, that is when he became
the GOP nominee, and the GOP started lining up behind him.

Bernie waited until July to concede.

I am so fucking SICK of Democrats being called Republican Lite, or Neo-Liberal, Corporatist.

Seriously, it is getting fucking OLD.

Here's what the Democrats have been doing for the last 25 years. Democrats have been advocating for progressive taxation for years now, every single Democratic Presidential nominee for the last 20 years, has run on a progressive tax platform.

Now that the Midterms are approaching, I see the Bernie fanatics out in full force.
What's wrong with the Bernie Sect is they have NO nuance, and do not seem to understand the realities of politics. It’s been easy for Bernie in a tiny state of less than half a million white people, as long as he supported guns, he would win re-election over and over, without having to work very hard.
It's how he could keep his purity mostly intact.
He's not known to work well with others.

People wonder why I dislike Bernie with such a passion...

It is because he is LYING to the voters.

I will list how he is lying. He has many convinced that Democrats are sitting in a room with wealthy donors, looking down on the poor laughing all the way to the bank
