    A lot of that would depend on the interpretation of the document by the courts.
    In the P-F basket of deplorables.

    Praising Fidel Castro and his policies will certainly resonate with the average voter, right?

    There’s a lot of Cubans who had to literally grab their wives, and kids and flee Cuba.. A lot of those same Cubans, and their wives, and now older adult kids are still alive in Florida, and they hate Castro and everything he stands for... These people get it..Bernie will never convince them communism is a good idea...That’s the problem with Bernie and people like him, they are in love with communism, but yet have no real first hand experience with it..

    Almost Trump levels.
    I was thinking today, maybe Bernie is the Democrat 2020 version of the Republican Voter 2016 Trump "FU"?

    In that, now in 2020, Democratic voters have had their fill of being managed by the Democratic Party elites on the left and right coast, and are saying a big "FU" to the Democratic National Committee by voting for Bernie? (much the same way that voters were characterized as "throwing a Molotov Cocktail" in 2016 by supporting Trump against the establishment?

    I like Herbert's BuSab. "Bureau of Sabotage." It exists to slow down government.

    Sounds like a hell of a job.

    Bernie's idealism, (which no one can seem to figure out how to pay for or survive), reminds me of throwing the proverbial baby out with the bathwater.

    Trump, on the other hand, would incarcerate the baby, and lacking papers ship it off to a "shithole" country where it would never be heard from again.

    Neither solution being particularly satisfying or elegant.

    I think Trump said what every right leaning individual had been waiting for somebody to say. Regardless of age.

    I think Bernie is saying the things that make everybody older than 35 ask "WTF have we done?"
