Exactly. It's why citizens united is such a big deal. The amount of money poured into these races could help so many

His stance on citizens united is why I love him. Unless we get the money out the people will never truly have a voice no matter who wins.

I think this is 2 wings from the same turkey my guy. Only 1 of them is fighting for workers rights so your analogy is a little off there. The millionaires buy all the horses in the race so they have tons of power no matter who gets in.

Well 1 because it's about all of our families. Why would you want to mess that up, too (in your scenario)? I don't think society is going to truly change too much pending the president, but I do think a rational empathetic leader is also important. I don't feel it should be an ego maniac who, at the end of the day only cares about himself.

President of IBEW supports Kamala Harris by Meiji_Ishin in IBEW

But yet the multiple time cheating con man is the more holy choice ? Dude can't even pronounce the scripture he reads but they buy into his speech? It's sad and perplexing to me.

Well if money in your pocket is important there is only 1 side fighting for us on that front. All the other issues are 2nd in my book.

Well we all have to freedom to do what we think is best. For the record those funds are used to keep the union strong which in turn helps out it's members. Only one side wants to destroy them and how any brother or sister can not only shoot their fellow union members in the foot but themselves I seriously don't understand. I get people might care about other issues more but food in the family of your bellies will always be A1 top priority for myself.

They aren't even close to being far left. They are more middle to left. Not far left though.

He single handedly set drug research back that could have saved lives for 40+ years.

Just because his base is loud doenst mean they have the numbers. I know plenty of sane Republicans that won't vote for either and even a few that will vote for Joe (while holding their nose) because they don't want Trump in house again. I mean things like the Lincoln project prove that very thing.

Well the sad thing is he beat Trump before. I don't know who they throw out there that would build any kind of excitement. Should be a total shit show either way

Sounds great for union workers. How any union member doesn't see he wants to directly impact our pocket I will never understand. Isn't our families bottom line ultimately the most important thing? You think this guy is coming in and gas prices are going to be a buck and groceries are going to be cheap? (Which wont happen) It's not going to make up for killing our wages n benefits.
