29. So calling Biden "shit" twice in the full quote is better than once?

"Oligarchy has way too much say in out party." "call people beholden to the money to task." What Democrats are beholden to oligarchy and money? There must be numerous examples. Which Democrats campaigned on something progressive and after the election changed their policies because of campaign contributions? If the oligarchy has so much say with Democrats, why did none of them vote for Trump's tax cuts? Weren't the oligarchy mad about that? What corporate influence didn't Biden distance himself from? No, Turner didn't endorse Biden, didn't work hard to get him elected.

Hillary Clinton did not "refuse to talk about the kitchen table issues." If you knew anything about her, you'd know this. It's literally what she's known for.

"Among the most unjust consequences of Sanders's branding Clinton as an establishment tool was the effect on young African Americans. Their parents -- particularly their mothers -- were solid in their support for Clinton, and that wasn't the result of her racial 'pandering' (as Trump later suggested) but rather Hillary's quiet, steady work, over decades, on issues of 'kitchen-table' importance to black families and the relationships she had with black leaders. That history was either unknown or ignored ... ." (Susan Bordo)

Also the most frequent word used in her speeches was "jobs."

Third Way is just an organization that has meetings and talks about issues.
