i don& #39;t have the energy to thoroughly debunk rahm emanuel& #39;s bullshit, but suffice it to say that he is not a reliable recounter of the history of the democratic party since, as one example, vis-à-vis m4a, this was an explicit goal of FDR, JFK, LBJ, Truman, and even Pres. Clinton https://twitter.com/_waleedshahid/status/1199053650443804674">https://twitter.com/_waleedsh...
the cool thing is, if you& #39;re even a little knowledgeable about the history of the democratic party in the 20th century, you& #39;ll know that emanuel is a fucking liar who would burn in hell if it was real
he also, notably, says to folks watching at home who know about LBJ& #39;s explicitly progressive agenda, as well as FDR& #39;s social security program, that these programs fit into the "traditional" liberal framework cuz they were funded by taxes, and deceitfully implies that m4a is free
and by "free", i mean not adequately funded by taxes and therefore bad. emanuel is a subtle peddler of insidious bullshit. anyway, if sanders wins, emanuel will lose all access to power in the democratic party, and we can& #39;t have that, now can we?
