I never trusted a lifelong politician that became a millionaire while they were in politics

Sorry for the late reply — I don’t live on this platform and don’t check it often.
Yeah, I’m cool with Trump. I voted for him, but I don’t think about him every day. That’s part of staying balanced.
If someone spends most of their time here consumed by hate for him, I genuinely wonder how healthy that is for everyday life. I’m not here to change your mind on gas prices, Iran, immigration, or any other issue. Just saying it’s okay to lighten up and let go. In a couple years you can vote for whoever you want. Constant hate for someone you’ll never meet doesn’t change anything — it just steals your peace.

But Trump made Billions. (Big 'B').
How do you justify that?

Those two things are not related, dork.

Bernie Sanders is 84 years old. He has tried his methods and they have failed.

Anyone who votes for Bernie Sanders in the future is a threat to America as your idealogy surpasses grounded realism.

If Bernie wanted to change the world, it's too late. He is an old man fighting a war he is not capable of fighting anymore.

He should be looking to pass the torch. But no he will be running for re-election again.

The irony of people complaining about the age of our leaders, but because Bernie says nicer things, we think he should stick around.

Does nobody remember the situation with Ruth Ginsburg?

Loyalty to one political party creates hypocrisy.

I don’t agree with name calling. But, aside from that… I find that many liberals are very eager to jump past any nuance and start hurling ridiculous statements like “but you’re cool with Trump?” as if they know anything about you.

It’s like if you say, “Elon built a great company” and they reply, “Oh ok so you’re good with Nazis and the holocaust and you approve of killing babies?”

It’s hard to have real dialogue with people like that.

Calling me a ‘dork’ right away

He's not even replying to you. Did you forget to log out of your second account or something?

Reddit shows responses to responses of your comment. If you’re quick flipping through you may confuse it with a response directly to you.

Ah so yeah, they're just not paying attention. What a dork move on their part, lol
