What do you mean we had a chance at real change in 2016??
Before that
You can't mean Bernie, the guy who also will not even call for a ceasefire from Israel...
If you ask for someone that takes a hard line stance in 100% agreement with you, you'll never get it. Find the best option you can in a given situation and roll with it. Push back on the differences, try to move policy where you want it to go, but understand you cannot always have your way 100% of the time in a world with other humans.
In other words, don't let perfect be the enemy of better. What is the alternative?
You know that saying is usually reserved for minor differences in policy, not for allowing the deaths of thousands
Yeah we've mostly soured on Bernie since he endorsed his good friend Genocide Joe and even more so with his recent support for the genocide
