    Until the Democrats figure out how to make poor people excited to vote for them, they'll constantly face challenges from the "god guns great again" sloganeering of the right.

Louder for those at the helm of the blue team.

For some reason you (And I, and lots of others) get this, and they don't.

They're rich. They wanna stay rich and they don't wanna feel bad about it.

They grew up in a time of limitless resources so they live like it's a time of limitless resources. But they don't want you limiting their resources.

Their bad guy is Nixon. Al Franken went on Colbert and talked about what great friends he is with Jeff Sessions because their wives swap needlepoints or some shit. They all work out in the same gym, they all eat in the same cafeteria. It's all fuckin' academic to them.

I am 100% about taking away their candy. Sanders got my money, Clinton didn't. But you go to battle with the army you have and right now, our choices are entitled, sociopathic baby boomers or deeply entitled, sociopathic baby boomers.
