Most economically progressive president of our lives! He literally sent us checks with his name on it. Licked the stamps himself because he loves America
I kinda remember that too. Or maybe it was just people like us prophesying based on how the UK reacted to Corbyn. A lot of that time is mired in a haze to me.
