We’re not talking about a woman who just tolerated sexual harassment and sexual assault. We are talking about a woman who’s used all the power she had to shut these women up She was complicit in enabling him to continue to carry on this behavior

No offense meant to you, but most women would do what was necessary to keep it out of the news and to protect their families from the shame and to avoid divorce. It is what we have done for thousands of years. Also because we don’t want to be blamed for our husband’s failings. I am sure you have heard some of the excuses men give when they are having affairs – she is cold, we have to stay together for the children. Also, trust and believe that most women are going to try and make life difficult for the woman that their husband was involved with. That is what we do.
 
Sanders wins Wyoming … making it 8 of the last 9 primaries.

One possibility might be … even the Democratic electorate doesn’t like Hillary much.

From the tone of his victory speeches (which got criticized by Hillary for “tone” anyway)
he may like her better than his voters.

🤷 I could be wrong.

If this were mountain climbing she’d be dangerously close to tumbling back to base camp.

SOMEwhere in this campaign … this meme applies. The opposite of the “Hang in There” one. 😉 Pick your nominee and party.
 
Sanders always does well in states in the west, with the exception of California. Wyoming is a lot like Colorado. He was expected to win. It would have been surprising if Hillary would have won.

The DNC won’t let him win. I think Debbie Wasserman Shultz is a big hillary supporter.

So if Your husband is raping and sexually assaulting women you should try to keep it out of the news and make sure the women shut up?

Yes the reason she has received so many votes compared to Bernie and even Donald Trump must be because the Democratic electorate doesn’t like her much. That makes total sense. :rolleyes:

I have to agree with Bernie on that. We as a country should take care of people who need help, not rely on unreliable charities who might just dole it out to only those who are willing to convert to their religion and/or make them feel like losers.

Anyway, the US is not only a very uncharitable country in terms of voluntary charities, relative to other rich countries, but is also very stingy in giving taxes to help others…tho we really like to spend on killing people, don’t we.

Oh no… Let it not be me who will defend your country here because you will find a hard headed one on this issue.
Without messing with your budget or politics,as a people you are very responsive. And this not to flatter,it is true.

Agreed. It even does all it can not to pay for necessary medical services for those who pay their health insurance premiums promptly each month. But you’re right - it will spend billions killing others unjustly. Only in the USA.

Flawed logic. Sexual assault and rape are crimes; having an affair is morally wrong, but it is not criminal.

A) France’s tax rate is 75%. Link

With taxes so high, would anyone in America want to work? Why work when everything is free?
**
B) France is a small country.** Link

France has close to 67 Million people. The United States has closer to 322 Million people. Can something in such a small country work on a larger scale?

C) The closest thing we have to government run healthcare is the VA… Link

…and it is run horribly. Our veterans are put on lists where they wait, and wait, and wait…

D)The National Health Service in England is failing…Link

…Or at least it failed one of its former directors, who waited nine months on a waiting list only to die before she could see treatment.

Seventy-five percent is only for the top wage earners. In this country, the top wage earners could well afford to give seventy-five percent, and should, since Reagan’s ridiculous “trickle-down” economics was a spectacular failure.

Being a French person myself, I know the health care system is nothing like England’s. France’s health care has been rated #1 in the world:

The US comes in at a shameful thirty-seven.
