I feel incredibly sad and depressed and disillusioned with Bernie, AOC and everyone else. Fuck them all. They will sell the rest of the world to the devil for a promise of some progress on the domestic front that’ll get broken anyways. And they know it’ll be broken! They know it! So why not stand in solidarity?! Why make the deal at all?

I’m just done.

Especially Bernie, fucker has been in the game long enough to know better, at least AOC I could understand early on and blame it on her being naive but she's just angling to be another career dem politician like the rest of them.

It's because he understands the game, that he has been able to keep his successful political position for so long, I'm sure AOC wants a long mainstream political career like Sanders. I always like to compare Sanders to Corbyn, they destroyed Corbyn's political career, and we all know the big difference between Corbyn and Sanders.

Her 6 months as a bartender was stolen valor. She's no different than Mayo Pete doing his photo op tour in Afghanistan, except she's way better at politics than him

They are politicians in the Democratic Party. Expecting more from them is just setting yourself up for disappointment
