    ONE QUESTION. Divorce your emotions & preferences if you can. What elected official do you believe has the single best chance at defeating Donald Trump??? Just a name. Not a ticket. Not Oprah or Michelle. One currently elected official....

        I mean, that's who she is. She was my Attorney General in my state lf California and she fought to keep prison slave labor because it's cheaper than paying people real wages. She also "supports" #MedicareForAll nationally but refuses to say one word about our state bill #SB562.

        She runs the show. She can't keep hiding behind her underlings. Same story with the anti-trans discrimination in the prison system. She also promoted a policy that would jail parents of truant students. She just defended ICE! She. Is. Toxic.

        Is the message of so little value that it is worth eradicating in favor of a vendetta against the messenger? Honestly I do not get this about my fellow citizens! How can dislike of a person be more important than policies that would heal a broken nation?

        Exhibit A: Bernie will not endorse Diane Feinstein (not that she needs it). That type of ideological purity has no place in our nation. It’s how we got Trump.

        Wrong.Neo-liberal policies enacted by feinstein, clinton, others, in addition to the corporate takeover of this country, + racism is how we got trump.Fienstein is essentially a center-right republican & CA voters are ready for a progressive leader.Thats why Bernie doesn't endorse
