"Bernie would have beaten Trump in 2016, IMO, "
Trump would have won both the EC and the popular vote.

"They would? Really? why would they do that?"
One son expects to make $50M next year. Warren's wealth tax would hit him. Why would he vote for that? For that matter, why would I vote for it? I want higher income tax rates and a high estate tax; that's enuf.

"a plutocratic oligarchy has been setting way too much policy"
People who say "plutocratic oligarchies" lose elections.

>> Is that what you taught them. Is that what you would do?

Do your kids vote the way you told them to?

Truth is, I hope I taught mine to have good judgment and to use it when voting.

You know, we're not going to be around forever to tell them how to vote...
