His approval rating

We could be finishing Bernie's second term right now. Thanks Hillary.

If he weren't a globalist working for the democratic communist party of china, he'd be at 100%

The man, the legend.

The DNC sucks so much for denying people what they really needed.

Nice 😎

Whoda thunk it?

There’s also the fact that once a candidate actually becomes the nominee, they have to go through a news cycle where they get hammered by the media. For example, before Hillary was the front runner for 2016, she had about a 60% approval rating that ultimate went down when she put herself out there

henryw1la.bsky.social•38 days ago

True, though I wouldn’t put much stock in this type of an approval rating, as far as electability goes. Harris, for example was in Bernie’s own state by more than he did. And Mitch McConnell has a highly low approval rating but still is a Senator

thanks for thwarting his candidacy, barack

Cope. He out-spent, but people didn't vote for him. They wanted someone else.

hammurhed.bsky.social•37 days ago

thinking obama had zero to do w his defeat is deranged

zeropagex.bsky.social•36 days ago

What's deranged is thinking he was close to winning and thinking any Republican liked his policies.

Kyle for president!!

It truly is too bad that he didn’t have enough in him to actually fight for his cause. I’ll always appreciate him for bringing these ideas to the forefront of national politics, but I’m still not entirely sure if he helped the cause or made it worse in the long run.

winternal.bsky.social•36 days ago

I'm certain his approval rate is much higher than that !

blackeyepee.bsky.social•37 days ago

(Without a plausible plan to implement it. But having that is old hat.)

zeropagex.bsky.social•37 days ago

Nope. It's the populism. Pure and simple. That's the rhetoric people like right now. When he ran on his Medicare For All plan, people didn't want it, because it was too extreme. They love that, "Everyone is poor, and everything is unfair" shit though.

chadkaiser.bsky.social•37 days ago

We are the richest nation in the history of the world, and you don’t think we can afford the same kind of healthcare system every other developed country has? You’re the extreme one; you’ve been radicalized by healthcare industry propoganda to accept 70k annual deaths due to no single payer care.

zeropagex.bsky.social•36 days ago

I said people didn't want the most extreme healthcare plan the developed world has ever seen. I didn't say we can't afford or shouldn't have a healthcare system like the rest of the world. Holy shit, what the fuck is wrong with you?

chadkaiser.bsky.social•36 days ago

You literally don’t know what you’re talking about. We are the only developed country in the world without one version of another of universal healthcare (Medicare for all). Foreigners both pity and laugh at us. Also, you have the flag of a genocidal fascist regime in your name; better yourself.

gogginomics.bsky.social•36 days ago

So we have proven that universal healthcare isn’t needed to achieve optimal health outcomes in metrics directly related to quality of care. Universal healthcare is not perfect.

zeropagex.bsky.social•36 days ago

Ah, gotcha. You clearly didn't read my reply, and you just wanted to argue. You just hate Jews, and you wanted to REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE, because you saw the star of David. Never mind.

chadkaiser.bsky.social•36 days ago

I pointed it out to say you are an illogical individual. We rank LAST among all major developed countries in healthcare. You don’t care about fact. 90 percent civilian death rate in Palestine with at least 60,000 dead. Israel doesn’t represent Jewish folks; it insults and tarnishes their name.

zeropagex.bsky.social•36 days ago

By the way, yes, his healthcare plan was more extreme than any other developed nation in the world. He decided in a country where half the population thinks the ACA is communism and most people like their insurance, he would make private insurance illegal except for cosmetic surgery and such.

zeropagex.bsky.social•37 days ago

BTW, I don't hate the guy. He means well, and I'm glad he helped during this election. His rhetoric is not great though. He has bad policy ideas, and sometimes he just lies. He needs to stop with that stat of half of the country can't afford rent or they live check to check bullshit.
