33. I voted for Joe Biden in 2020, because I thought he had the best chance of winning---

Mon Dec 8, 2025, 11:38 PM

Monday

even though I might have agreed more with Bernie Sanders
on a lot of specific issues----

but after he was elected, Joe Biden paid a good deal of attention
to Bernie Sanders on many issues--- I was not disappointed in Joe....

The most important thing in 2020 was to kick Trump's smelly ass OUT
of the White House--- and we certainly did THAT !

(And President 'Fighting Joe' Biden then became
the most progressive Democratic President
in modern history!)
