      White identity politics is how Trump won? it's only like 60% of the people in America that are white. did he get all 60% of the white people to vote for him? nope he actually got a bunch of people from many different races to vote for him. didn't he. He got even more of the black vote than Mitt Romney did. But oh yeah it was just the white identity politics and the racism is the only reason Trump won the election. It's only reason why people support him is because of racism. Your whole premises is seriously flawed get out of your Echo chamber. Use common sense and logic. Get out of your hate.

      The people calling her incompetent are not too bright themselves, what do you really expect? One thing that is important to learn is not everyone's opinion is valid, and you just move on and let them sit there and struggle with being themselves for the rest of their lives. I'm not big on politics in general for the nasty game that it is, but I really wouldn't call a lot of elected officials incompetent. Racist? Sure. Selfish? Sure. Money and power hungry? Absolutely. Mental Ill? I could name a few names. But I wouldn't say any of them are incompetent. What I don't understand is why these people are wasting time watching videos of AOC and reading through the comments when they don't even like her. Is that "smart"? It's entertaining to say the least.

      Savannah Sputnik In all parts you are wrong. The DNC and the leadership in Congress were very opposed to her because she challenged a big man in party and took him down in a primary. They still don’t want her there. She know a great deal about the suffering we are causing innocent children and their parents at the horrible border crisis because of our president. She knows that 6 year old children are not hardened criminals. She also knows that drugs and crime needed to be stopped at the border. I am fine if you disagree with her policies, but I must oppose when you do that without any need to check the facts. Please learn a little more and maybe you could talk to us and we could have a conversation about our differences without the hate. We do not hate you and are very sad that you seem to hate us and we attack us without any love in your heart. It does not have to be like this.

      Oddly, I’ve recently hooked up from a friend from high school who was a Trump voter and I actually find him easier and more comfortable to talk to than the average MSNBC viewer. At least we agree that: 1) Never ending war is awful and we have a military industrial complex dedicated to keeping it up 2) Having corporate trade deals that sell out workers and American sovereignty to corporations is awful 3) An intelligence and tech stranglehold over the citizenry is wrong- etc etc at least we agree that we’re getting screwed and for the most part we agree on who we’re getting screwed by (Oligarchy). Even on immigration we agree that oppressed immigrants are being cynically used by the 1% to shore up their profits while sowing tribal divides amongst the 99%. The only thing, that we really disagreed on, the disagreement that causes all others- is a belief about whether or not solidarity is possible. Progressives fundamentally say yes. He fundamentally says no. I say Denmark, Sweden, the Netherlands, Japan, Germany are places where policies pushed by Socialists succeeded- he says they succeeded because of racial monogamy. But we got to meet people where they’re at; and there is a great chance he will vote Bernie or Tulsi > Trump, but no chance at all that he would vote Kamala, Biden, Buttigieg or even Warren- a candidate who fundamentally belongs to the Democrats, and therefore to the Oligarchs.

Even if I fear they have given up on themselves and on America. I start by trying to understand why they believe in Trump, and that is where the healing starts.

      We can afford to listen to any side without fear of self comprise. I loved Hilary even though she was far more conservative than I am, but she had a brilliance with rolling up her sleeves and making a policy work. If a more conservative person says something good for the world, let’s say so because it is better for the world when centrist get good feedback for a good idea. We don’t have to see that as a cave in. If it is a bad idea, we should call that too. We don’t have to bow to terrible ideas, but sharing a truth that others have a point of view should not be hard for us either

      I think you're misquoting her. She was saying Dems should try to communicate feelings more than facts because, even if people won't admit it, they tend to vote with their gut. She was endorsing this as an effective communicating tool, not as a general statement of "preferring" feelings over facts, and certainly *not* saying feelings are *more* true than facts.

Her comments on Manchin being the chair of Energy & Commerce in the Senate & the challenges that'd produce were so accurate given where we are today with BBB failing. Her concerns about how the Democratic party doesn't know how to evangelize its Democratic worldview in deference to GOP talking points and narratives are also spot on. We risk losing our country to an even stronger/more sly authoritarian force because of the Biden's administrations reverence for Bipartisanship and working with the GOP.

      Not all state colleges were free. Some were. It was decided state by state, not on a federal level. Most free colleges were for in state residents. However, college was still affordable until colleges got greedy due to Federal government intervention. Colleges noticed that the federal government would grant students loans. Now students had access to more money and colleges took notice. The problem isn't regulation on paying the colleges so kids can go to school but decrease loans available and cap tuition cost. At least, cap the cost on state colleges. You should be able to pay your tuition without taking large loans. It's kind of like people only going after insurance companies. No, the hospitals are the problem. They create the original cost. You can go to the emergency room and get a bill for each of the following: ambulance bill, the hospital, the doctor, room, each doctor on staff (even if you never see them). So you can end up with 10 different Bill's, and another problem is they can send you a bill a year later.
