Let's say Bernie wins - what type of policies will get passed? And how, with a Republican-controlled Skya Rhen May 2019 #5

That's not an unfair question... TCJ70 May 2019 #6

So, with a Republican-controlled Senate BS will get none of his policies passed. Sounds like a plan Skya Rhen May 2019 #11

Joe certainly has a much more credible shot at doing this, than does any of the other candidates... Skya Rhen May 2019 #28

That doesn't answer my question. What is he willing to sacrifice for unity with Republicans? 50 Shades Of Blue May 2019 #31

How would anyone know that right now? BannonsLiver May 2019 #34
