Don't be fooled by her. She's doesn't want to be a Democrat. And she isn't one.

Agree. No one who encouraged people to not vote for Democrats in 2016 Hortensis May 2021 #1
Her "bowl of shit" insult about Joe Biden was unforgivable... NurseJackie May 2021 #98
Anyone still doing Both Sides: unforgivable. betsuni May 2021 #100
Why would Clevelanders listen to a Californian about a local race?! NurseJackie May 2021 #103
Katie Porter also endorsed Dorian Gray May 2021 #218

Very disappointed in her. Why would she support someone that is anti-democrat? helpisontheway May 2021 #2
you are so right. And Turner LIED about Hillary!! I will never forgive Turner. Awful Turner ..... Trueblue1968 May 2021 #75
Wow. SO disappointing StarfishSaver May 2021 #3

What does the filibuster have to do with Nina Turner not acting like a Democrat, Autumn? George II May 2021 #116
Was everything else I said invisable except for the word "filibuster" George? Autumn May 2021 #117

The second sentence did too. If I don't understand a post I study it until I do George. Autumn May 2021 #121
Probably something to do with Kyrsten Sinema dansolo May 2021 #219
