“What’s funny about that is they assume my ambition is positional. They assume my ambition is a title or a seat. My ambition is way bigger than that. My ambition is to change this country. Presidents come and go, elected officials come and go, single payer healthcare is forever.”

    Oof. Plenty of countries have implemented socialist programs. Healthcare, access to basic necessities are needed. No one “illegal,” they’re just people trying to establish themselves. Whole country was built on the blood of Native Americans. So, yeah that shit about this country being a melting pot is more relevant.
