The more people are exposed to Bernie Sanders, the better he seems to do. In every demographic he keeps improving his popularity as time passes. His supporters have far more energy that Clinton's and he is winning younger voters overwhelmingly. He has drawn bigger crowds than Obama did in 2008.

Because we have a fucking wall.

His tax plan, wtf is that a joke? He claims he'll be taxing the rich heavily, but how? How exactly is he going to ensure that the rich, the ones who keep money overseas, actually pay to make up this deficient?

So how's it going to work out when our entire country is funded by the middle class? Oh wait, it already is, 40% of Americans as it is already don't owe income tax. So let's cut it even more, make corporations pay more, and hope that corporations don't decide to move to Mexico or Canada like he did. I suppose Trump has a plan for that though, huh?

A lot of his views that I see brought up on a daily basis are about issues that yes, need addressed, but I'm supposed to believe that he's going to do something about them? Bernie's plans address most, if not all major issues I see in the news on a daily basis and he has the experience and knowledge to put plans in place that leaves America great for generations to come. Trump's covers the typical shit that Americans wanna hear. "Build a wall! No income tax! No Muslims = No terrorists! Let's bomb the shit out of ISIS!"

Also, Bernie wants to allow a path to citizenship for illegal immigrants. You state you had a struggle immigrating, Bernie wants to make it easier to immigrate, because he understands struggle. What did Trump ever have to struggle with?

You see crime in border cities, I see every single fucking crop going up in price, because believe it or not, there's illegal immigrants who come here for work, not to import drugs and commit crimes. It's so small to think that what is happening on the border is the only thing that matters. We need a plan of action, not a fucking wall and deportation. Whether you like it or not, farmers pay illegal immigrants and that's a big industry to attack buddy.

What about climate change? Trump straight up refuses to think about green energy. How ignorant. He wants to expand the military, keep police forces militarized, continue the war on drugs, and make drug laws stricter.

I'm sorry, I don't agree with any of that and I don't see how anybody could. All of his views are so short-sighted. Bernie's thinking long term, making America great for generations, not building walls and continuing to allow our planet to get destroyed.
