(35,632 posts)20. Debs is the one felon I agree with on so many fronts -
and of course, w/this statement. He ran for president from jail under the socialist party and received nearly a million votes. I guess it helps me understand how supporters of Trump feel about him: they completely support everything he is doing. But that is probably the only similarity between Debs and Trump - actually being convicted of crimes. In terms of how they view the average person the gulf couldn't be wider. It is going to be a long four (or however many) years.
