You talk about projection, which is funny. Meta-funny, in fact. Meta-Meta-Funny. Almost as funny as you calling me "bourgeois" for opposing the preferred primary candidate (FL-23, house seat election, against a fellow Democrat in a primary still undecided, again, jury) of Payday Lenders.

Who hasn't moved on from the Presidential primary? Not me. Hillary Clinton won, and I am enthusiastically supporting her for President. I'm fully behind our Presidential nominee, Our ticket, AND our extremely progressive platform.

Have you read our platform? Have you compared it to the GOP platform?

I know which side I'm on, Bain, and I know you agree with me 100%. Point by point, side by side, comparison of our parties and platforms. Down that line. Right? UNITY!

But.... the topic here is Debbie Wasserman Schultz, not The Platforms, Presidential Primaries, or Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders.

I've been against DWS since she allied with Sheldon Adelson to kill medical marijuana reform in Florida in 2014. You know, that "bourgeois" issue, totally meaningless to the lives of real, actual...

well, oh, wait, maybe not meaningless to this sick 50something year old woman currently facing a 10 year prison sentence in Debbie Wasserman Schultz's Florida, you know, over that "bourgeois" medical marijuana thing.
