Forum Overview :: Balance of Power :: His tax plan would be disastrous and he'd gut the EPA. Fuck him.

[quote name="Mischief Maker"]skip seems to think this election parallels 2000, but it really parallels 2004. Howard Dean defied the corporate media and they responded by burying him by doctoring the sound of the "dean scream" clip then played it on an hourly rotation. As a result, we were stuck with a milquetoast centrist in Kerry. If Sanders got the kind of free press that the news gives Trump nightly, he'd be a landside winner. Instead older voters are seeing trump day in day out and they're so scared of his presidency they're running to the perceived safety of a corrupt "sure thing" candidate. I'm reminded of when French voters were stuck with the choice between crooked Chirac and fascist Le Pen and they went to the polls wearing latex gloves or wearing clothes pins on their noses. <IMG SRC="http://images.dailykos.com/images/225086/story_image/clothespin2.jpg?1458143729">[/quote]
