Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez emphasized need to ‘transform our energy system’ but did not discuss how to pursue it.

"“What we are trying to do tonight is be part of the revolution in terms of the need to transform our energy system away from fossil fuels and to not only save the planet but create millions of good-paying jobs in the process,”

The Next American Revolution will be one of putting down the most serious threat to face this nation since a peanut farmer led it down a “path to peace” in the Middle East and left a nation in need of a Reagan and now a Trump to try and salvage what he can of this drifting ship of state(s) that sat dead in the water under Dem control and was happy to take hits from bow to stern.

Now, idiots like this pretend to have answers for what ails us,, never mind sworn enemies can hardly wait for us to roll our bellies to them like good little libs.

You know how they love getting their bellies rubbed... and their egos stroked.

I know Sanders knows he is full of sh*t but horse teeth Cortez is a true believer. Nevertheless, the real goal is cutting down the USA by environmental politics.

This misnamed “progressives’ need to be exiled to some remote bleak rock island for the rest of their delusional, mentally-challenged lives.

I don't think they're misnamed. Cancer is progressive too.

Because the most important thing during a cyclic ice age is to cool the planet. Yes, let us progressive forward to the past and break that cycle of short warm periods. Ice forever! It’s the progressive way.

“star-studded”? “elicited cheers” from hundreds?

when Trump is cheered hundreds of times at each rally he holds in front of 15,000-plus crowds - including when he reminds them he has withdrawn the US from the Paris climate agreement - the FakeNewsMSM either doesn’t report it or says it was a “dark” event!
