Who would you choose?

    I pick Bernie twice, young idealistic Bernie and current bernie so young bernie can yell at his old self for being so spineless while I watch while incredibly high

    NGL, I'd really consider getting stoned with Beto. Seems like if you talked Marx at him long enough he'd change his mind.

    But it should probably be Steyer and Bloomberg so I could steal from them by convincing them to give me their shit.

    Are we guaranteed they'll partake? I want to see Hall Monitor Mayo Pete around drugs, get super paranoid, and then snitch on himself after, the Randall Weems ass motherfucker

      I definitely like this like of thought. I feel like Marianne Williamson would be more fun to make fun of an uptight politician freaking out than Bernie would be. However, I really want to smoke with Bernie - especially if it's just a single bowl between the 3 of us (as presented) because we're not getting that high. In that world, I'd need somebody who is very fun to disrupt my desire to cry and be upset around Bernie. I almost want to say a Beto or Y*ng would be down to do some bullshit like ride bikes or talk to strangers.

      If we were going into deep waters, getting really high, and I had the strength, I would ask Bernie all of my, "Why not attack Joe harder? Why did you endorse these treacherous motherfuckers? Are you still friends with the snake? You approved Neera Tanden?" alongside MW.

    Marriane is the easy first choice, but I would take Eric Swalwell as a distant second. John Delaney seems like he’d laugh a lot and do little pranks, which might go too far depending on how high he was.

    If you get stoned with Richard Ojeda you're going to end up in some white trash fist fight with rightoids in a 7/11 parking lot.

          I agree. Watching him fight and speak the language of his voters and still not really even be a contender shows how indoctrinated the average person is. Even if they have everything to gain and nothing to lose, they will step on their own dick and give their kids cancer before voting for anyone other than an R.

          You'd literally have to start in on kids pre-K to break this cycle.

          Judging by his Wikipedia article, he seems... Interesting.

          he stated that he voted for President Donald Trump in the 2016 presidential election (a decision he later regretted). He describes himself as a "conservative on most cultural issues" who supports coal jobs and border security.

          Can't say I'm entirely offput by him, but he's definitely taken some problematic positions.

            He's also pro union, wants to raise rich people's taxes, and is in favor of M4A. He's a soldier from West Virginia. Supporting some questionable policies probably comes with the territory.

    Unpopular opinion: Tulsi’s probably got really entertaining conspiracy theories to listen to.

    None of them. When I was a stoner I used to go to the club and light up fat blunts. Good times.

    I find international politics interesting, so I’d probably say DeBlasio so he’d tell me about the Sandinistas and Mayo Pete so he could tell me about militias in Somaliland

    I'll share my bowl with almost anyone but any US politician who's not vehemently against US foreign policy will only catch these hands so none in the picture.

        She seems cool but when it comes to US imperialism I need to see some actions, words are cheap (and don't come at me with how hard it is, it's my bowl, my rules).

        Nah we all need to be told so on occasion. I guess the nostalgia factor blinded me a little since I grew up watching the daily show with him and Stewart with my libdad. The report did seem to have more to it than anything he's done since.

    Scalding hot take: I love Bernie and I think he is the best human in that group by far... but socially I don't think he'd actually be all that much fun hang out with, high or otherwise.

    You can be a good person and not be sociable.

      He'd still be better to smoke with than most in that group who would just turn into edgy debate lords about how locking children in cages is actually being at one with the universe.

          Kamala Harris would argue that she was allowed to ingest the drugs because she was undercover infiltrating a gathering of miscreants.

      I"ll smoke with him just to see him open up about how left he actually is.
