@raiderrocker18 @mtaibbi @erichhartmann @ZaidJilani That said, if he is willing to disavow support for the GOP, as he says, that's a start. I've been spreading his reply everywhere.

@mtaibbi @AngelEyesNYC @erichhartmann @ZaidJilani It’s the obvious net result of your content. It’s why Twitter algo for recommended follows when viewing your page is Tucker, Mike Flynn, libsoftiktok, Candace Owens, etc

You can’t be that naive.

@mtaibbi @erichhartmann @ZaidJilani But the GOP opposes universal health care. They still plan to repeal the ACA when they get a chance--as well as Social Security and Medicare. Voting for Republicans, who oppose all government programs, is not the way to get universal health care.

@erichhartmann @ZaidJilani If you’re upset about it not having universal health care I would maybe look at the history, dating back to Billy Tauzin leaving Congress to head PhRMA, to Obama killing single-payer and reimportation, to the myriad ways the Sanders campaign was suppressed to help explain it.…
