Oh wait, that was BERNIE and under the "Bernie Standard," it's now seen as a "brilliant move." No disrespect to Mayor Pete... I very much like the guy and he IS making a smart move by following Bernie's lead.

Good for Mayor Pete!! Here's hoping he does go on Fux and kix some azz!! Indded, wishing him the best of luck throughout the campaign.


Bernie & Elizabeth 2020!!!

Besides the "If Bernie was complicit" nonsense, I think you missed my point. dgauss Apr 2019 #69
