Iran is a sane country and will back down. Again, against President Hillary they would probably escalate, knowing that she would back down.

Hillary We came, we saw, he died Clinton would back down?

Anyway, I would feel a hell of a lot better about this if the president of the United States was a sane person

I don't think it should matter who's sitting in the oval office to decide whether this will lead to good things.

Honestly, let's be serious. The fact a full blown war didn't break out with Iran f***ing with the oil shipping lanes and the drone attack on oil fields was a testament to the pacifist nature of Trump.

lmaoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Political compass is run by far left people with the goal of convincing everyone that theyre left wing. The placements of political leaders are completely made up bullshit, and they picked the questions so that almost everyone is on the left.

huh

Bloomberg doesn't stop that.

We just get another 4-8 years of "better than the alternative" while that alternative moves further Right because we just met them halfway, leading to "Trump, but not incompetent" after that.

Dems need to stop supplicating for "good enough" and start settling on no less than good.

Wow, you must be really privileged to be okay living in a world where abortion rights are restricted, gay rights are restricted and under constant threat, and where we have no hopes of changing anything for the rest of our lifetimes.

Electing a "good enough" will get us a competent "Trump".

Can you imagine the absolute state of the country if Trump wasn't a total buffoon?

I don't think Bloomberg is a Republican, he's just the stereotypical nanny-state trope personified.

He's fucking loaded and he thinks it's evidence of his positions being the morally good ones, while any detractors are impudent.

He's personally funding his campaign at an absurd level because he doesn't think he needs to earn the respect of the people: he's owed it and they just need to be reminded he's out there.

Whenever someone says they'll vote for the worst possible option, I think to myself "Wow, you must be really privileged to be okay living in a world where abortion rights are restricted, gay rights are restricted and under constant threat, and where we have no hopes of changing anything for the rest of our lifetimes."

Bloomberg getting the nomination is where I say fuck it and just vote the worst possible option so people can get what they deserve.

Same, I literally almost said that's when you go full Joker.

As far as Left/Right, I think most people here would call me "far Left", but I'm for things often considered "Right" like gun ownership and non-interventionism.

I basically want the Government to leave people alone unless they need help, and pretty much exclusively use the "force" of government on people with the means to take advantage of others, like the super wealthy and corporations.

The Green New Deals lack of nuclear support is definitely a huge disappointment. The reasoning is because nuclear waste = pollution, and I dont know how much waste is created, but its my understanding that its a relatively low amount compared to fossil fuel emissions.
