A thriving democracy that countries like Iraq can look up to!
Mayor Pete should feel some level of embarrassment that after dropping out Warren, Bloomberg, and Klob still beat Tulsi in Wisconsin, but he didnât.
She endorsed twice already.
Not sure which propaganda outlet youâre hearing this from, but itâs hilariously incorrect.
Edit: To be clear, City of Milwaukee turnout was actually 50% higher than the last spring election we had for Supreme Court.
I donât know what it was that made you think I was legit in the old forum, but Iâm still the same person. Itâs just that I agree with Bernieâs tactics more than his followersâ, and I donât understand the idea of running for Dem nomination while openly loathing the rest of the party. AOC sometimes praises Pelosi and Bernie praises Biden not because they are traitors, but because they know itâs the shrewd thing to do to advance left-wing ideas.

She hasnât endorsed anyone yet, although itâs rumored to be close.
Obama endorsement expected to drop today, which I guess isnât much of a surprise.
Both Gore and Biden have made it a thing to keep Clinton/Obama at arms length during their campaign for whatever reason. Never made much sense to me, and you know the Republicans would be trotting out former presidents during the campaign if they had any that arenât deeply unpopular.
Obama ruined politics for me forever. Ripped every shred of hope straight out of my body, never to return.

Biden certainly did not keep Obama at armâs length. Obama kept himself in the background, but âObamaâ has been every other word out of Joeâs mouth.

Obama simultaneously endorsed Biden while shitting on Trump and the Senate. Also gave a shout-out to Bernie.
Just now? Shout outs to Bernie at this point are pats on the head at best.

Obama seems like he wants to stay our of the fray for West Wing reasons that Iâm sure arenât going to backfire. Barack still pretty popular with the base and four years of Trump insanity are helping his image. Seems like if youâre Joe you want him right there in the campaign bus at all times.
Any way we can get W to endorse Trump? That just might help the Dems.
Thatâs basically what it was. The video is on Facebook.
One thing that the eDems specialize in is pointless gestures of inclusion, to prove how tolerant and âabove it allâ they are. The Rs eat their lunch on this terrible instinct over and over again.

Textbook Grauniad circumlocution:
Obama declined to play a public role in the primary, preferring to use his goodwill within the party to help bridge the ideological divide when the fight was over.
âPublicâ doing absolutely Trojan work there.

I donât have numbers to back this up, but I suspect that W is wildly popular among pretty much everyone except the far left right now. There is NOTHING that your average derpy west wing lib loves more than showing they can reach across the aisle and respect the âgoodâ republicans, and at this point they are free to retcon W into whatever kind of good republican they want.
Remember when he said we shouldnât demonize Muslims after 9/11, before he went and needlessly murdered like a million Muslims and instituted surveillance on their mosques? Itâs the first part that matters to most people.

The Trumpers on Chiefsplanet and elsewhere (i.e., the actual base of the Republican Party) fucking hate W in 2020. Only the Acela belt folks and the NYT editorial board buy into this âreasonable Republicanâ hogwash. Of course theyâll still vote for whatever military adventure the Râs foist on us next while calling the Dems warmongers.
Nah, man, everyone except the MSM knew the âMuslims arenât out enemyâ part was bullshit. Republicans were careful to throw out enough dogwhistles so that the base understood what was going on. Itâs the fucking polite moderate left that falls for this dumb shit every time. W tosses out some token bit of civility and then starts shipping people to torture camps.
Jeb! tried that same strategy, but with Trump out there just saying the quiet parts out loud there was no reason to vote Jeb!.
Not sure how well half the Democrats being fully on board with bombing Muslim countries jives with that.
Weird take. I could easily see that happening.
