And I loved her responses to Maher's bullshit comparing Warren to George McGovern. She brought up her own experience winning as a progressive in conservative Orange County.

He offered a $1,000,000.00 donation to start up a presidential bid.

46. You are part right. But she's not one to waste that job, but will learn presidential work and be IN
with the most important executive meetings and decisionmaking. It's not just sitting in the Senate.
She'll be traveling to meet foreign leaders, learn geopolitical politics in a way that will use her brilliant mind for the good of the US. You can't suppose, given the past experience of Biden, that he was in suspended animation, know what I mean? To elevate yer fast so that we have a wise decision maker after Biden would be the best thing we could do for our country, imo. (I sent a check to her campaign back when, and was SO happy to see OC go blue.) |

34. Uh oh...get ready for the reichwing attack machine...
She isn't afraid to speak out on issues, and she has a good handle on reality. The "perfect ingredients" to piss off the gop cult and fox propaganda network. We will be hearing a LOT about her soon. "Be afraid...be very afraid". She's not Muslim? She is Caucasian, but they will find some BS besides her ethnicity and religion to attack with a vengeance.

36. You must listen to Chris Hayes' podcast interview with her. I must warn you though.
After listening to this interview, your love may turn into an obsession.
https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/msnbc/why-is-this-happening/e/63176983 Did you know she took bankruptcy law at Harvard law school from Elizabeth Warren? |
