2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx to endorse Hillary Clinton [View all]Empowerer
(3,900 posts)46. Your cult leader voted to confirm both Secretary Foxx and Rep. Watt, so you should direct your anger

If they are both so awful, why didn't Sen. Sanders stand up and say no to both of their nominations?

Well I read it as light hearted teasing myself. Perhaps you're taking things too personally?
