I'm not one of those Sandernistas who won't vote for
Clinton. I'm not necessarily a Sandernista at all. Yeah, Bernie went to a high
school in Brooklyn but not the one I went to, the one down the road, so I'm not
indebted by nostalgia. Larry David went to the very high school I went to —
along with Terri Gross and Rico Petrocelli — but his SNL jokes are increasingly
& embarrassingly awful: "I used to be a poor schmuck. Now I'm a rich
prick."
That's funny? There's humor there?
I'm definitely not a Clintonist.
I do not understand how she could have sd Nancy & Ron
did great things during the AIDS epidemic. She was an adult, over her
flirtation with the far right.
She apologized. But for what? Having holes in her head,
craters in her integrity, assuming any in the first place? Maybe an aide wrote
the nonsense about AIDS.
So is she, as one might suspect, a candidate by committee?
(If so, she ought to hire a new one, a committee, that is, with brains
included.)
Sanders, at any rate, isn't a candidate by committee. He's
his own aspirant, for sure, with unquestioned idealism & integrity, but
doubtful electability. (I think his ideas about single payer are admirable but
as unattainable as the Committee of Clinton says it is.)
Meanwhile, seems like Trump is going to be *their*
candidate. And the Rep Party will then throw billions behind him. Provided he
behaves, no, even if he doesn't, though there may be some hold outs.
And he won't behave, can't. He's not in it to behave.
Whether or not he, himself, is a fascist — I doubt he knows
much about the topic — Benito, George Wallace etc. — he's fanning the flames
among his followers.
He's a DIY, only in America, fascistic thug.
He's as unexpected as Barack Obama — but way way way in the
other direction.
Wish Clinton was more than nothing and Sanders less than
everything. But I'll vote for either.
Naderism does not live on in me.
In other words, Clinton, moth-ridden as she is, does not
equal Trump.
