    Yeah I know a ton of people that joined in 2001 after 9/11 to “protect” the US. Their subsequent military experience radicalized them against the military complex and American exceptionalism.

      Didn’t radicalize him at all - he did several tours and keeps bringing it up as something positive.

      Like I said, typical sociopath. He’ll say anything to get you to listen, pretending he’s left wing he’s made a huge platform for himself. Don’t fall for it.

        Either you’re right and he hasn’t changed and is lying for votes.

        Or he has changed and actually is going to implement his platform.

        Either way getting Collins out of office is the better outcome. If he actually follows his platform that’s even better.

        I’m leaning towards he intends to actually follow his platform based on how poorly the DNC is reacting to his primary win.

        You’re either trying to ragebait or haven’t actually looked into him and his history at all. Either way you’re wrong, its very obvious he is not and never has been sociopath.
