Replying to Why are people going to vote for bernie?
It honestly makes no sense to me, and i am a democrat. his ideas don't align with the party at all. he just yells to please in a similar way to trump. bernie is a smart guy and i agree with him 100% from a moral perspective but the logical reason to support him just isn't there at all. He couldn't pass any of his unrealistic plans through a right leaning congress. for most of his ideas the math isn't even there. he underestimates the greed of society and he can't run a country through executive orders and yelling. he has less foreign policy experience than anyone and isn't trying to fix that. he honestly thinks that the rich will let him take their money. our military one of the most reliable and sizable sources of fighting terrorism in the world and downsizing the military on such a massive scale will not only stop aid from reaching those who need it but will shift economic and combat power elsewhere.even if you over exaggerated the shit out of what he plans to tax and say i don't know tax the highest tax bracket 100% it wouldn't pay for even a fraction of his ambitious endeavours. free college, lets be honest here that would never ever happen in this age. not all billionaires are inherently bad look at gates and buffet two of the richest who donate the majority of their income to charity and those who need it. i just can't find a convincing pro bernie argument anywhere. he feels to me like a leftist trump who just spouts unrealistic gibberish because people like to hear it.
only real pros are weed, and payed maternity leave
