So all the county and city clerks that run elections are beholden to corporations?  I suppose we should federalize all elections now.

Financed * I got it wrong, sorry. Campaigns are financed by donations.

Sure, people and groups of people such as corporations and unions tend to fund campaigns except for those that may be self funded by a candidate.  What’s wrong with that?

Maybe these socialists will soon learn that Twitter is not the voting public......American, non-socialist values prevail in the US..

So people (individuals, unions, corporations) having free speech rights is wrong?

She also has Antifa connections which aren't exactly moderate either. How much they're influencing is anyone's guess right now.

 

Her foreign policy is one I agree with, and really it's not a surprise that people that tend to serve in the military also tend to be far less warmongers than the war-loving (yet service dodging) political class.

See I didn't know about her Antifa connections.... I will study that further. But I know her domestic policies are more Left wing of me. But she is still the only one the Left that I would even consider voting for.

Exactly and that's what many of the establishment Democrats have been preaching for a while now. How the party needs to stop listening to twitter because that doesn't make up the vast amount of voters

A few Dems are finally speaking up...like James Carville......He says the current Democrats have lost their minds.....and he is correct.

Corporations buying influence is wrong.

thats true to some extent, its definitely a bubble. Like when I see andrew yang trending every day and he doesnt ever hit above a couple percent in actual primaries. However, its not like the democratic establishment democrats are a reliable source. They say that biden is the most electable and that the man who won the first two primaries popular votes, has the most funding from individual donors, etc doesn't stand a rat's chance on getting the nomination (bernie).

Sad thing is I feel like fox news has been a lot more fair and "objective" on the primaries than CNN which are a Biden + buttigieg love affair, regardless of how they do in polls, elections, etc

Interesting, so corporations are not a collection of people just like unions?

That's why many of the more Progressive candidates and talk heads have been going on there lately. Krystal Ball who was on Tucker Carlson on Monday said that "it felt odd getting a better reception on Fox than I do on CNN or MSNBC".

Agreed, I like watching Krystal. I've seen Tulsi on fox news a lot lately too, CNN would never have her, so much for impartial media. I feel like Krystal is prety fair and calls out the dnc for what it is, a bunch of identity politics lovers who claim to be "smarter" and "more educated" than the "stupid hick republicans", who time and time again prove they are in many ways, worse.
