Exactly. Hillary wasn't going to do anything. Just another Republican.

There were plenty of legit reasons to not be inspired by her. Which isn't the same thing as saying people shouldn't have voted for her over Trump (obviously they should've).

I'm super pumped about the Senator from Vermont who's accomplished nearly nothing in the Senate. He gets my juices going.

So all those nice things Trump said were a lie? Isn't this rolling over for the bigger fish? Has Trump made that illegal yet?

Yeah because worker protection, helping people get healthcare, securing heat for low income families, none of that matters. Dude you don't like him I get it but stop being an idiot. Of course he's gonna run, he's probably the best shot the democrats have as he doesn't have the scandals or corporate ties that the other younger mainstream likely candidates do.

Name one accomplishment? Any of that ever happened? No. Lots of people talk the talk.
 
Re: POTUS 45.41: We Need More Tax Cuts to pay for the Tax Cut

I'm not gonna do the work for you guys but the Low Income heat one was in September 2008 and he introduced it. In 2009 he and Chuck Grassley introduced the bill that prevented Wall St. banks from replacing laid off American workers with temp foreign labor. And he helped add the amendment to ACA in 2010 that expanded community health centers and funding for them. Obviously there are others but it's probably not good enough for Scooby because he has some weird irrational hatred of the guy.

Democrats who worked with the Vermont senator say he contributed to the debate, but rarely forged actual legislation or left a significant imprint on it.

His legislative record was to state the ideological position he took on the left, but with the exception of a few small things, he never got anything done

He was not a major participant in the financial reform debates, either in the Clinton administration or in the Obama administration

Well yeah it's politico lol and their sources are a bunch of centrist politicians who are mostly against him. I literally just named a few things that he introduced that helped people and were enacted into law. But politico!

I like the guy, he brings attention to some very important issues, but he doesn't have a whole lot of legislative accomplishments.

I mean I just named a few of them. Obviously he's not gonna pass single payer by himself.
 
Re: POTUS 45.41: We Need More Tax Cuts to pay for the Tax Cut

He's introduced 3 bills that became law. 2 were renaming Post Offices, and the 3rd was increasing veterans cost of living
 
Re: POTUS 45.41: We Need More Tax Cuts to pay for the Tax Cut

Ok so clearly none of the amendments that helped people matter :rolleyes:

And honestly we could do this all day. Kamala Harris's huge accomplishments in the senate are what exactly? What about Booker? (and yes I realize they haven't been around that long and one could argue that either direction) Hillary did a great job voting for the Iraq war...

No ****. he's also been in DC a lot longer.

Again, I like the guy. I'd take him over Trump even if Bernie were 99 years old. But it's ridiculous to argue that he's more accomplished than Clinton, which is what I believe the Bernie Bro was arguing.
