Just thinking about all those "qualified" people who gave us the war in Viet Nam, the War in Iraq, 20 years too long (of failing) in Afghanistan, didn't care - or didn't have the spine - to give Americans what the citizens of every other advanced democracy have: universal health care, free college, paid maternity/paternity leave, free child care and a guaranteed livable wage. I mean, they've done such a bang up job and all. Over the last 48 years, $50 trillion has been transferred from the bottom 90 percent of Americans to the top one percent. The idea that only those whose careers have been entrenched in a system that drove us into that ditch should possibly be considered "qualified" to lead us out of it is preposterous. We don't need to respect such a system; we need to disrupt it.

What do you think about extreme wealth inequality, tax payer funded never ending wars, and the military industrial complex, @elonmusk?

This is a very hopeful sign! Just being able to name the major wars of the last 60 years is more knowledge of foreign policy than you exhibited during the 2020 campaign.

Go back to irrelevance and let @POTUS do his thing, fixing the economy, job creation, supporting social services,... #DarkBrandon

Come over to @Spoutible! I'll follow you there. Twitter is getting way too messy.

Winning wars is easy. Keeping wars going for 20 years to maximize profits is difficult but rewarding.

You'd need to repeal the 13th amendment.

Don't talk about how veterans are treated when you're literally one of the people who wants to fund endless wars and send people to their death!
