  1. So he’s worried Bernie will get elected and fight climate change with renewable energy!!!!! The horror the horror !!

    1. @Yousavedbro Heaven BoundYou are spinning some evil smears in the name of your savior. I think that were Jesus alive he would endorse Sanders, who is a man of great compassion for the poor and needy.

    1. Not if he vows to eliminate nuclear. That’s basically taking things off the table. Germany already tried to do what Bernie proposes and they failed. They’ve ended up with much more expensive energy rates and also more carbon emissions per capita than 10 years ago.

      It’s one thing to say we can do it. It’s entirely something else when there’s already precedence that it won’t work. The only thing the GND does is just pander to his base, it’s not bounded in reality.

  2. CNN, disclose your funding when you attack Bernie next time 😂

    “Bernie is super scary, brought to you by Muhammad Bin Salman, and Bayer.”

    1. Yousavedbro Heaven Bound You think Jesus would actually be on your side?

      Fearful of taxing billionaires an extra 2-8% to provide healthcare to 80 million brothers and sisters?

      You are worshipping Satan if you want Jeff Bezos to have that one extra yacht and let millions suffer and die.

      Stop with the rhetoric.
      There are material conditions at stake and millions of lives.

      You can call it Socialism.
      You can use any rhetoric in the world.

      But if you are fighting for people to die hungry and sick on the streets you are serving the prince of darkness.

    2. @Yousavedbro Heaven Bound Man!you are so knowledgable so intellectual, you are so…, but I’m sure you are the last zealot of your kind,,,,,

  3. Wait, was this monologue really just “oh it’s too hard and we’re too lazy so let’s not bother”??? What the actual eff? These corporate news stations are so transparent. Goodbye CNN,

    1. @Joshua Jones And that’s fair enough. My problem with this entire comment section isn’t that people disagree with him. It is that, like we so often do when talking about politics, people are dismissing his arguments just because he is criticizing their favorite candidate, and not because they have seriously thought about those issues.

      Maybe he is wrong. That’s entirely possible. But then attack the dude’s argument.

  4. Bernie: Here’s my Plan to battle climate change…
    Klobachar: We won….third place 🎉
    CNN:Stop Bernie and his voodoo thinking!! We need results and third is stronger than First !!! 🤦

  5. CNN : Bernie is too radical .
    Also CNN : we would need a radical change in our thought to solve our problems

  6. Just got back from the centrist rally. Amazing turnout. Thousands of people holding hands and chanting “Better things aren’t possible”

    1. It’s like they didn’t learn from 2016. If they fix the DNC for Biden or Bloomberg it’s the same old BS.

    1. @Robert Cicilia I hope most Pastors don’t chest on their wives. I would guess a vast majority don’t. As for DJT well he’s no pastor….. and not a moral figure. But he is keeping his promises and our economy is 👍👍👍👍👍

    2. @Robert Cicilia He said “Is the real problem Bernie not becoming president or him becoming president” So, yes he did ask a question but not really that way.

    1. Tax the rich! Yay!
      Then they bleed you dry once there’s no more rich people to tax. Will you wake up once they come after you? Or will it be too late by then?

  7. What exactly was this piece anyway? Clearly, ill advised commentary….
    CNN: “We don’t know how to get to the moon, so why bother? Please lead the way Russia”
