I'm not a big Nina Turner fan but love her tonight.

The faces she makes while this Deplorable, i.e. Republican flack is talking is priceless.








ON EDIT-

I don't care. She was great tonight. The Republican flack was whitewashing Trump's racism and she was shooting him killer looks.

When she goes back to stirring up trouble in the community (Democrats) I will go back to disliking her.


Same with Bernie. When he rails against millionaires and billionaires I like him. When he criticizes Democrats I dislike him.

You said "He only rails against billionaires now that he's a millionaire himself"

False. He also railed against billionaires long before he became a millionaire.

I grew up watching "The Millionaire" when I was a kid. A million dollars was an unimaginable sum of money back then. Now the average home in San Francisco is worth well in excess of that. And a dime got you on the subway and a nickle bought a cup of coffee, not anymore. A million isn't what it used to be.

"Millionaires & billionaires" portrayed as the evil in his campaign speeches of 2016, has since been edited to simply "billionaires".

Why did he drop the word millionaires from his evil duo of his campaign speeches? He became a millionaire himself.

So now only billionaires are evil.

What if he becomes a billionaire someday!!!
Omg!

My congresswoman votes with Trump more often than Republicans in her own state representing far more conservative districts. Hillary Clinton won my district by a comfortable margin. She panders to the xenophobic crowd in this state voted to repeal portions of Dodd-Frank. Voted for "Citibank protection". I realized a long time ago politicians are not looking out for us but themselves and a lot of people don't vote apolitical because of this. Record matters and long-term Sanders has a good one. Not perfect but far better than most.

We have a country to take back and this intramural bickering is a distraction. Nina Turner was on a CNN panel and she schooled a Trump flack who was whitewashing Trump and his followers racism. I applaud her that, nothing more and nothing less.

Holy shit she went off on some Republican piece of trash and it was beautiful!
I don't understand how people can't like her, I mean seriously. Watch this! She absolutely drags these idiots. These are our enemies, Nina is NOT.

"The fact that you're taking such a cavalier attitude towards the suffering of black & brown people in this country is appalling!"


Beautiful!

She laid the smack down on that Trump apologist who had the chutzpah to argue some of Trump's followers are racist but he isn't. That's an absurd argument;Trump gives credence to their racist views and that's why they follow him.

Sorry, I won't be a part of trying to rehabilitate her image, or cast her in a positive light. Why are you? She has ZERO redeeming qualities. She's as bad as Sarandon with her lies about the party's nominee and her attacks and smears of the Democratic party.

I don't care.
Clearly not. All I'm saying is that I guess I just have higher standards and am less forgiving (and more demanding) when it comes to things like this. Amusing expressions and "side-eye" glances aren't enough for me to view her in a positive light. She's still toxic. Her "destroy-the-party-to-rebuild-it" philosophy is dangerous.
