The plan of building a warship was flawed.
The target of the warship has been wrong too. It's been an ongoing mistake to continually target Democrats and the Democratic party with the lies and smears about how the Democratic party is "corrupt" (it isn't) or how Democrats are "ideologically bankrupt" (we aren't) or that the Democratic party is "the party of the one percent" (it isn't) or that Democrats "don't care about climate change" (we do) or that the Democratic party is "an absolute failure" (it isn't) or that Democrats are "do-nothings" (we aren't) or that the Democratic party is the "party of the elite" (it isn't).
So much effort being spent ATTACKING and SMEARING and aiming the cannons at the Democratic Party! What a mistake that is!!
All I'm saying is that these things serve NO good purpose at all. It only generates negativity. Negativity generates apathy. Apathy discourages voter turnout. Low voter turnout gives Republicans a chance to steal the elections.

LOL! So, you're saying that he doesn't actually want to be our party's nominee?

Well, he certainly won't be our party's nominee. Thanks for clarifying that's what you want.

I think Bernie's ultimate goal is to take the Democratic party down and rebuild it in his image.
