Just made my first $27 donation to Bernie. Had donated to Cisneros this cycle, otherwise was waiting until I felt like Bernie needed it. He needs it now that they’re going to consolidate down and start firing on him from all sides. You convinced me the time that he really needs it has begun. His cash on hand advantage is going to shrivel up real quick.

Mentioning the 500k Iraqis killed there was impressive even for a Bernie ad.
Crisis averted. I was having a sad at the thought of less fortunate people having access to quality Healthcare and declining corporate profits.
Seriously though fuck each and every one of these people. I’m even starting to get concern trolled and hear establishment talking points about Bernie “not having a real plan” on Healthcare from my liberal co-workers. Keep in mind one lady’s mom has MS and has been unable to work and on medicaid/Medicare since she was in her late 40s.

Biden gets the nom when Bloom drops out and ships his delegates. In return, Bloomberg is brought on as his running mate.
In a stunning gaff during his first debate against Trump, Joe declares he was proud to bring Pete on as his running mate. He stutters and corrects himself–but no one can miss how he seems to actually care about this gaff. Where’s the Joe who says whatever and doesn’t care?
Bloomberg doesn’t mind the mistake. He says his middle name, after all, is Pete. He winks, raises his eyebrows, and takes off his Bloomberg mask, revealing fresh-faced Pete Buttigieg.
No one can find the real Bloomberg, and in the ensuing debate over just how far back Pete replaced him, the DNC embraces the GOP strategy of “yeah I did it” and says since Pete has been disguised as Bloomberg since at least as long as he dropped out, technically those votes were for Pete.
Biden and Pete took an odd path to ascend to the presidency, but hey, you don’t have to take my word for it. The history books will do that on their own.

trade is good, tariffs are bad. The negatives of trade deals are often felt by small groups of people while the positives are felt by the entire country slightly as well as some more significantly. Obviously no trade deal is perfectly written, and some are worse than others. They would have to be horrificly written to be worse than the alternative of tariffs/import duties/restrictions. Nafta has helped all countries involved in terms of GDP quite significantly.
Also protectionism ends up with non competitive industries that end up dying on their own anyway. Free trade may accelerate the process, but look what steel tariffs did to the steel industry. I’m sure the Russian workers of the Lada appreciated having a job for 20 more years as a result of protectionism, still ended up with no industry and a country that paid too much for crappy vehicles

OK so hear me out. I think I’ve just figured out what’s going on here. Klobes endorses Biden, then finagles her way onto the ticket as Biden’s VP once they all ratfuck Bernie during the convention. Coronavirus ebbs during the summer, but returns with a vengeance in late September. Biden refuses to back off his campaign schedule, saying he stood down Corn Pop back in '58 and he’ll be damned if he’s going to give into some dumb virus now. 87-year-old Biden comes down with some sniffles in early October, and the rest, as they say, is history.

I don’t know what you’re talking about. Personally I have no hard feelings and would love to sit down with her, have a beer, and watch her guy endorse Joe Biden in seven fucking languages.
OK seriously though I’m only doing these digs for the next 24 hours or so. 
Moved post…

I appreciate this. I’m a little unclear on which positions you’re saying Americans in general and posters here included hold that you say are bad. Like I think most here would say trade good and tariffs bad, so I was unsure if you’re saying that’s dumb to anyone outside of America or the position you wish more people held.

These are the voters whose opinions the Washington Post thinks are most important. It’s fucking beyond parody at this point.
Charlotte Sullivan, 70, the retired human resources director of an oil and gas company, plans to vote for Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.) because she seems reasonable and willing to compromise to get results. “I’m a fiscally responsible Democrat, and I don’t go for Bernie’s socialism,” Sullivan said as she shopped with her daughter. “I will go for Bernie if he’s the nominee because I cannot tolerate Trump at all. But Bernie has dug himself into a trench, and he’s not going to be able to get out of it.”
Sullivan lives in the richest Zip code of Houston, a traditionally Republican neighborhood in Fletcher’s district that’s full of multimillion-dollar homes.
People were blaming Biden for Nafta as if that was a blackmark on his record similar to his Iraq war vote
Bernie thinks protectionism is good and brags that he was against Nafta
Whatever, worry about his extreme age after the primary. The youth demand a president older than Pearl Harbor for the first time since George HW Bush! One so old that on inauguration day he will be the oldest person ever in the office.
