    Don’t conflate what I’m saying I’m not pro Kasich in the cabinet but he’s not an evil person just because he represents constituents that you disagree with

    i’m talking about views on key issues. are you saying you imagine biden—who you just touted as the most progressive major-party candidate ever—is as close to sanders as he is to kasich on issues of workers rights and taxation? if so, that’s... hard to square. if not, then stop drawing silly false equivalences.

    children of affluence, such as urself, afforded every opportunity in life -- not held back by race, sexuality, whatever -- typically aspire to ownership, building equity as they mature. not a wild stance, and i insist you not lump yourself in with like poor immigrants bc u couldnt handle college b---- lol

    again idc what you, sitting in front of your computer, deem “evil” or not, i’m concerned with the policy impacts these things have on people. but even accepting your framework, is this not a slippery slope itself?

    Biden would not be making this pick on the basis of policy but as a conciliatory effort to stop the Republicans descent into fascism which while we both may agree is not a sound strategy surely isn’ta disgusting effort

    Yeah man it’s not a hard and fast rule, people do what works for them. But it’s not unusual for adults to settle down and buy a house. In fact the middle class is founded on it lol

    how is rewarding a republican governor a cabinet position in a democratic administration—which, regardless of what you believe, signals at least a tolerance for his legislative record—do anything but embolden republicans?

    This is where the left really loses me. I am a straight, white, tall, good looking(imo) male. Would I be lumped into "children of afflunce not held back" or are you saying that to Paul because you know him on a personal level.
