Bernie isnt even really a socialist. He's more of a social democrat.

But I think most younger people understand the different shades of it.

Socialism is hard left for America, even though most Americans use socialist programs every day. They are just too dumb to know it.

That doesn’t make it actually hard left though, American politics is skewed to the right, your centrist democratic party is really a centre right party by any global yardstick.

Ivanka quoting Thomas Jefferson. This family knows no bounds. Loved the first reply to her tweet.

I'll settle for the ads, as long as the bastard doesn't get re-elected.

They're very obviously aimed at his base which isn't going to be enough to get him re-elected. One lists a bunch of "Facts" and literally not one thing listed in it is a fact.

 

[dbarila]

Ha! One of those ads was just on while I was watching the news where they are saying "Donald Trump is My President" when my 6 year old casually walks in the room and says "not mine". I could cry.
