    All these threads are hilarious.

    Dude gets elected to the job of running the city and actually RUNS the city and everyone’s shocked.

    Like take a step back and realize that if actually having potholes fixed and garbage collected is ‘new’ maybe you all need to stop re-electing the same loser assholes year after year.

      It’s because he’s Muslim.

      That’s it. He’s talked about so much because he’s a brown person doing good things and that goes against the white American collective hive mind.

        It’s because he puts the needs of the workers over the needs of those with so much wealth their entire lineage will never have to work again.

        They’ll use him being a Muslim to turn us against him and against each other, but that’s not why he’s opposed by the billionaires who own the media or the billionaires who fund the GOP and establishment Democrats, all of whom teamed up to try to keep him out of power.

        When it was Bernie, they tried to divide us by gender and generation. When it’s a Muslim, they try to divide us by religion. When it’s a young white Christian man, they try to divide us by lying about him being a fucking vegan sexist racist.

        There’s no war but class war.
