@ginaintheburg @tedlieu Now all the Democrats have to do is take advantage. The coming election is the Democrats' to lose, which considering Democrats, is a real possibility.

@HakeemG Ah. Ok.. So I should've listened to my initial instinct, then. You don't really have reasoning for your dislike of whichever party it is you dislike, and your position is backed up not by logic and thought, but with emotion and following what your shepherds have led you to believe.My fault for believing there might've been an interesting discourse here where both you and I might've learned something.Very well.

And I don’t want to send other young Americans to inflict the horror that I had to inflict on people.”Polling suggests that most Americans agree with him. So does the feedback he gets day to day. The people he meets overwhelmingly oppose the #war; many are furious or heartbroken about it. That includes his fellow veterans. “I don’t know a single guy I served with who thinks this thing in #Iran is a good idea,” he told me. Many of those guys are #MAGA. “This was one of the reasons they were big Trump supporters — he was the #antiwar or ‘America first’ candidate.” #NoWarWithIran #news #politics #USpol #Maine #Senate #USSenate #US #USA
