the only thing lazy here is parroting democrats who took credit for things they didn't do

Affordable Care Act

democrats walked back on medicare for all reforms ensuring that the aca will cease to function.

LGBTQ rights,

the democrats gave us don't ask, don't tell; doma; and 10450. the gays became accepted through portrayals in tv and movies; not because of democrats. the closest thing that could be misconstrued as lgbt right is the defense of marriage act which did nothing but give gay marriage bigots legal protections since the supreme court invalidated doma 8 years before.

marijuana reform…

nothing but lip service for the last 20 years

not to mention a Black man was president

a member of the ruling class

Black woman is the party nominee.

acab and a prosecutor who put many innocent people behind bars and then fought to keep them there once it became clear that they were innocent to save face.
