This was never about his politics for me. It is a moral issue. The fact that so many Americans did not agree was soul shaking to me. This has never been true of another candidate. I can disagree with policies and accept when my candidate loses. This is different. Very, very different.

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.
Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.
Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.
It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.
It’s about priorities.

Want to see how far right the Republican Party has gone?
Watch George H. W. Bush and Ronald Reagan answer a question about illegal immigration during a 1980 debate.
They wouldn’t even be allowed in today’s Republican Party.
