He fought to communicate issues of racial justice and anti-corporate truth in media for years and years, then he quit broadcasting to be on a farm and just be with the animals. He came back to politics to fight for justice for workers with health issues.

What would you prefer him to do that’s better than that? Train for combat and go and kill Netanyahu with his bare hands?
You know his career has been going on for longer than just the past year right? People can do good and bad things and people dislike him for doing bad things for the last 20 years.
He was shitting on Bernie sanders and has always supported right wing democrats and have hamstrung leftist in this country for a long time.

(Shows a clip of Clinton talking in a southern accent when talking to a southern audience)
“The problem isn’t Bernie Sanders is a crazy pants cuckoo bird, it’s all we’ve become so accustomed to stage managed, focus-driven candidates that authenticity comes across as lunacy.”
(Shows a clip of someone calling Bernie Sanders the most unusual candidate we’ve seen in a long time)
“If by unusual you mean honestly representing himself and his beliefs rather than playing a cynical political game.”
