Bernie Supporters Love the Republican Tax Plan

That was great. And I'll be 100% honest. I would never do a "man on the street" thing like that about a topic I know hardly anything about.

Problem is they aren't are aware they hardly know anything about it. They eat up the MSM's parroted democrat talking points about "wahhh tax cuts for the rich. People will die."

All Bernie supporters I have ever met are moon bats. They live in a fantasy land painted by the Bern.

To me, what the video shows more than anything is the insidious danger of a propaganda based, narrative driven media. The media don't GAF about truth. Their narrative is "Trump bad. Dems good." Every story is spun that way from Jump Street. I know damn well the MSM would be singing the praises of this tax plan if Hillary had released it.

In the United States in 2016, black women made 62.5 cents on the dollar compared to white men and hispanic women made 54.4 cents. That is a disgrace.

How do they come up with these numbers? Is the white man being compared to the same exact profession (ie, same hospital, schooling, etc) black woman or do they compare a white Dr. who happens to be a brain surgeon to a black female Dr. who happens to be fresh out of school and a pediatrician?

They just take median incomes from those demographics and subtract them.

Notice how they always leave out the biggest gap demographic - Asians.

Probably b/c you aren't an attention whore who needs airtime as validation.

Iceland treats its illegal Mexicans with the respect they deserve.

So, not even same professions? That is about as disingenuous as you can get.

The "rape culture on campus" "1 in 5" number is equally disingenuous and probably more dangerous.

I always like these, but I do wonder how many people, who were interviewed, knew it wasn't Bernie's plan and still hated it.

Same. It's like when late night talk show hosts do street interviews (Leno, Kimmel). It's an edited segment and who knows how many people that actually talked to. Of course they pick the worst ones. It doesn't surprise me either that some people believe anything they are told by someone on TV. It's like those segments on Kimmel where he lets people test out the "new Iphone model" and just gives them the current one. There are always some dumb schmucks that convince themselves that what they are being told is true and make up things in their head to convince them that it's true.
