Aren't you at the upper limit of being a millennial yourself?

So Bernie was talking at some debate, I assume recently. Hilary cuts him off when it's his turn to talk and Bernie says, "Excuse me, I'm talking"

Now they're debating in the media about the "sexist" comment by Sanders :?

Seems like to me the media is just making big deals out of bullshit now because it looks like Trump and Bernie actually have a chance. The sexist Bernie stuff is completely ridiculous. On CNN the other night they talked about Trump and the KKK for 3 straight hours.

Tried to watch this debate, it's just unwatchable for me.

I just don't like the robotic answers, it's all forced and scripted, doesn't keep my attention.

Clinton: "If the 2007 Immigration Reform Bill was so bad, why did I, Obama, and so many Latino organizations support and/or vote for this bill?"

Sanders: "If the 2007 Immigration Reform Bill was so great, why did myself, others, and so many Latino organizations fight against this bill?"


Ok, glad we solved that one. Thanks guys!!!

Don't be so afraid of differing opinions dude, geez. Stop with the "trolling" nonsense, it's your go to move, and it legit makes no sense right now, you don't seem level headed enough for this conversation right now if that's what you think I'm doing..


He's worth an estimated $4 billion. Hard to argue that a dude who built that much wealth is not a good businessman and all he does is fail. How does one fail that much and gain that much wealth at the same time?

Seriously, did you even watch the Last Night piece? His wealth is based on real estate and his "brand". Real estate is speculation and timing. it's not a business. You don't create jobs, you don't innovate. You buy property in the hopes that it will be worth more later.

Plus, he inflates his own "brand" and it's value. From forbes:
We value the Trump brand at $125 million. Trump apparently thinks that if he spun-out these kind of deals and his good name into a separate company, he’d net over $3 billion for it. Good luck with that.

If you're quoting Forbes, Forbes has his net worth at $4 billion, which is what I said(I said he was a successful businessman), which is essentially what you called me a troll for basically.

You're both right from everything I read. He's worth only half of what he's claimed (8-10B) but that number is still 4B.

Word. All I've really said is that he's worth $4B and has been a successful businessman.

Honestly not sure why that was disagreed with or how saying that makes me a troll, but so be it. :)

Not to speak for Jason and having only half read things I'm guessing he was referring to all of Trumps failed ventures. But like Dave said earlier you have to take some risks throughout and overall he's come out by all accounts on top at the end of the day. Is the entire 4B purely his doing or creation? Probably not, but that's 4B more than you or I could have generated :)

HARDLY ANY OF THAT MONEY IS FROM BEING A BUSINESSMAN!!!!!!

What part of this do you not get?!?!?! Real estate is not being a businessman! It's investment!

The actual "business" ventures he has entered into have failed. Some of them miserably.

And that's just it--he's taken investment (real estate) risks and paid off handsomely. he also benefited from illegal hiring practices for his workers and hiring cheap foreign labor (you know, the thing he claims is hurting America). he didn't run a business and do well with it.
