I find it exceedingly strange that you made this edit 30 minutes after posting a response to a 6-hour old comment. Not sure what you think it proves.
Sanders, AOC, nearly any progressive in Congress; fuck, even Pelosi, who is certainly not a progressive, has gotten in on it. Opinions have changed rapidly. Sorry you haven't been paying attention, I guess.
Have fun sealioning.
I made the edit because three people came by to down vote but had no response. You'd have a point if nobody had seen the comment. Obviously that wasn't the case.
And since when is Sanders or AOC considered Dem leadership? And three examples isn't even close to "50%"
... fucking what? How is that at all relevant?
Quite clearly you aren't interested in a serious conversation.
Lol buddy, you made an outrageous claim that you can't possibly back up and now you're trying real hard to deflect.
But don't worry, I suspect we'll run into each other again and I'll keep bringing this up. Either you can admit what you said is bullshit or you can prove your 50% claim. But what you're doing here is sad even for you.
