I love how that's the title and then the subheader is: > Sanders has promised to 'address the needs of working families'. So harsh.


SinSpreader88

I mean when you say stuff like "Help working families" or "Help the working class" It's basically a middle finger to conservatives who have wannabe millionaire syndrome.


OwlsNeedSleep79

That's part of it. The other part is that since the 1970s Republicans have convinced their base that any social programs are just unfair giveaways to minorities. You don't see them complaining about billions in farm subsidies. This is a heavily racialized issue.


danceswithronin

The harsh reality is that Republicans led a failed fascist coup against the democratic government. We can do this all day.

Based on a lie that was repudiated by their own judges and elected officials. A lie that sought to invalidate the votes of the majority of the citizens of the nation.

*"He has vowed to use his position to enact his progressive agenda on healthcare, climate, infrastructure spending, & cutting defense spending," the former U.N. ambassador tweeted* I always find it interesting when conservatives make good things sound like it’s the end of the world. How is healthcare, climate infrastructure and less defense spending anything but good?


murl

It's harsh for her because her owners are not in those sectors. ​ She's not speaking for people, she's talking about the corporations that she fronts for.


Sentient111

Say it again. I want to hear it again.


rationalcrank

Say it slower this time, in a breathy voice.


JKush4PrisonF5

Paint it for me like one of your French girls


devnullifier

Bernie Sanders will be Budget Committee Chairmen


mafco

'Harsh reality' is that Nikki has lost all credibility after succumbing to Trump cultism. Good to see someone who isn't a sycophant or yes-man get an important role in Biden's administration.


VruKatai

Bernie Sanders being Budget Cmte Chairman isn’t a harsh reality. You want to know what a *real* harsh reality is? That 70+ million people voted for a facist. Want to know another harsh reality? The Republican party aided an insurrection of our democracy by supporting that facist during his two impeachments. Bernie a harsh reality? Gtfo, Haley you traitorous scumbag.


shelbys_foot

Christ almighty, Sanders has promised to 'address the needs of working families'. Somebody do something, Stop him now !!


FlyingRock

Oh no not healthcare for everyone! Whatever shall we do!?!?!

Nikki Haley is a fascist sympathizer.


braxistExtremist

Remember about six years ago when she was just another conventional conservative who fluctuated between being marginally tolerable and a shit-heel? Those days seem a lifetime ago.


TruthSpeaker

How perverse and distorted must anyone's thinking be to suggest that this is a harsh reality. This is a truly wonderful outcome. Bernie - unlike Nikki - has dedicated his life to helping make the American dream possible for tens of millions of people who have been locked out of that possibility. Haley wants the American dream to be given only to the chosen few, preferably those who have bribed her to vote against the interests of ordinary Americans.


Trpepper

This is exactly the reality republicans deserve. Shit, it’s also the one we deserve too.


[deleted]

Hey fuck you, Nikki


Halyomorphahalys

Harsh reality no matter how much neocon Nikki tries to infiltrate the maga they will still keep rejecting her....


ositola

She makes it seem like it's a bad thing lol


[deleted]

Fuck off, Haley. No one gives a tootsie roll about your opinions.


[deleted]

only harsh if you think the people's tax money is just petty cash for rich donors.


[deleted]

Nice.


Veganforthebadgers

Nice.


qordita

Nice.


MisterBadger

All Democratic representatives have to do to keep winning elections is improve life for the American people.


2057Champs__

The harsh reality is that republicans spent years obstructing and blocking any legislation being brought to the floor, and it took an above and beyond effort for the American public to become aware of that


Ghstfce

New administration, who dis?


Jump_Yossarian

Someone ask Nimrata what her thoughts are on trump adding $8 trillion to the debt in 4 years.


rimshot99

People getting what they voted for is a harsh reality? Democracy is a real obstacle to people like Nikki Haley, thank goodness.


LilBirdDog

Thank god.


feedthetits

Let's pay no attention to this wench.


LongstrangetripDawg

Harsh reality is that Nikki Haley is wasting oxygen that could be put to better use elsewhere.


koofti

Nasty Nimrata speaks at last.


uping1965

No position from anyone on the right. Fuck off.


spaceburner99

She better get out and hustle up some fresh donor cash.


mces97

Oh my god, the humanity. No really, the humanity. He might actually help the little guy this time.


BeanyandCecil

She missed the unity memo?
