8. Well, that is one way to post in a fundraising email I guess.

Democrats suck but not me. It strikes me as the wrong approach as well, rad.

I have seen part of his platform on his profile page at BSky. He doesn't say how he will help get us out of the mess that tsf and his maggot crew has gotten us in.

However, he said:

-He wants Medicare for all. ( not a bad thing but how is he going to do this...he does not explain.)

-Fire the SCOTUS and require term limits. ( great, though that isn't going to happen either, at least not in my lifetime)


Another thing about him @ BSky, he never once responds to anyone. Not once.
