“What’s funny about that is they assume my ambition is positional. They assume my ambition is a title or a seat. My ambition is way bigger than that. My ambition is to change this country. Presidents come and go, elected officials come and go, single payer healthcare is forever.”

    No… Socialism is the very political and social movement in which, by taking down the very pillars of this working society without true understanding, damns it completely.

    Independently on who does it.

      Well there you go. You fundamentally don’t understand what Socialism even is, yet you are criticizing it and attributing capitalist failures to it.

      As I suspected, you are just ignorant this entire time, or arguing in bad faith, or both. Maybe you’re just a troll, who knows. Blocked. Cheers!

        And it seems that you are idealising a philosophy not even wanted in its original country. So fixed on your seat that you can’t imagine someone, let’s say a Cuban or a Venezuelan, dissing it.

        Oh, and just to annoy you, Trump did more for both countries than Biden did.
