BLUF: you know we can just run someone who authentically wants to help Americans … Right?

OR… Populists easily win votes by promising to do things they can’t (lower prices) or by promising that great things will come from things they can do (deport immigrants, raise tariffs).

…

The left could also nominate populists who promise everyone two acres and a mule, but is that really what’s good for the country?

It’s just unfathomable to you, that we could run someone who authentically will help now that the DNC isn’t literally funded by Hillary’s personal fundraising machine she built…

Like, are you just unaware of all that?

There are plenty of leftist populists elected in South America, yet those countries stay poor and crime-ridden

Yeah…

Mainly due to the fucking CIA, again, both under Republicans and neolibs.

Don’t forget, just because we always wait a couple decades to declassify shit, doesn’t mean we perpetually just stopped that long ago. There’s always a giant backlog of shit they’re waiting till we don’t care as much.

Clinton flat out told journalists she wouldn’t have let Palestine have an election, and the only way she would have, would be if it was rigged:

Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton displayed a brazen contempt for Palestinian democracy in a 2006 meeting with Jewish journalists in Brooklyn, according to a new report. She also warned of the rise of “Islamo-fascism” as a “global threat that needs a global response.”

According to the Observer, Clinton told the editors of the Jewish Press: “I do not think we should have pushed for an election in the Palestinian territories. I think that was a big mistake,” said Clinton, then a New York Senator running for re-election and shmoozing with the editors of the Press. “And if we were going to push for an election, then we should have made sure that we did something to determine who was going to win.”

But obviously the reason leftwing governments don’t work in South America, is the United States of America.

but the truth is that populists are good at getting elected and then fucking everything up.

Liars are good at lying…

Again, we could just pick someone that doesn’t lie, how is that such an alien concept to you?

And even if that is your logic, how the ever loving fuck do you not understand why voter turnout is a huge problem? And that the fix is just running someone authentic?

The logic in your comment just isn’t consistent. The only thing consistent is saying anything in the moment that doesn’t make neoliberalism look like the cause. It’s literally like talking to a trumpet.
