Bernie Sanders drops out of the presidential race

You don’t speak for the rest of the country. Get over yourself.

 

do you have anything of value to add? or should we just exchange barbs all day?

 

You’re the only one throwing barbs, I just made a factual observation.

 

Then I guess we are done as you forgot what the conversation was about

 

Trump is Putin's puppet, that is why he defends Putin over our own intelligence

 

The same intel that lied about WMDs in Iraq, and tortured prisoners. The same intel that lied about spying on the American people, and lied about spying on congress?
Yeah, I totally 100% take everything thing those folks have to say as gospel, derp.

 

You're also speaking to someone who is very vocal about our intel agencies for the Iraq war. Odd that he'd make these claims

 

See, no one can take this seriously. Obama's about as manly as a high school cheerleader who's boyfriend just broke up with her.

 

So I venture over to Joe Biden's website cause I was kind of getting scared he might not be OK, have not seen or heard from him in a while. You know you gotta check on the old folks when they disappear for days and weeks at a time.

And I see this.



Is that Joe? He looks like that old guy we all know from around the area, the one who wants to look way younger and cooler than he is to try and pick up the ladies...the collar, the shades...on man that is a really bad image Joe!

Creepy!

 

Other than being in heavy debt virtually his entire business life, cheated on his taxes to the tune of millions, defrauded thousands, stolen charity money, bankrupted 6 businesses & failed in over a dozen more ventures, been sued over 4000 times, been accused of sexual assault by 25 women, enriched himself & his family while in Office (emoluments violation), cost taxpayers over $133 million in golf outings, forced govt workers to stay at his resorts & pay much higher charges, gutted environmental regulations, enriched the 1% & big business interests in return for campaign favors, cozied up to dictators (because he admires & wants to be like them), been impeached, abused the powers of his Office multiple times, and much more...what has Trump accomplished to benefit Americans?

Here's what you probably don't know about Trump.

By contrast, Bernie has worked hard his entire political career to enact meaningful changes...but has always encountered great resistance from the GOP & establishment. Yet he's accomplished much. See here...here...and here.

Bernie has, thus far, also sponsored/cosponsored 7215 bills/resolutions/amendments during his political career. This man has earned his pay.

Bernie has been a "starving activist", scholar, and natural statesman until he successfully launched his political career as mayor, where he continued his activism. He was "born to serve." His focus has never been money, which is why he lived in squalor (and never sponged off the govt) as he pursued a career in politics. That's why even when he won public office he never accepted PAC money, big business bribes, or listened to powerful lobbyists...though he easily could have and become uber rich like most of his constituents. Money was never his goal, but only to do his job by making meaningful changes, and never to betray the trust & needs of the American people (particularly the working class).

It was a tactical move to channel his supporters to Biden's side. That's all. If Trump was in the same position his delusional narcissism would never have allowed such a sacrificial, but tactical move.

 

your right - there is a reason Trump doesn't want to toss balls at games

 

Looks like Bernie got the Gas Pipe from the DNC again. I just can't believe he's dumb enough not to see it coming the second time, nor make plans by registering as an independent in all 50 states. I hate to be hostile, but the guy's just to dumb to be President.

 

Your assuming that he was ever serious about being President. I don't think that's ever been the case.

 

Agree. He became a millionaire running for President, now he has 3 homes including a lakeside dacha. He got what he wanted out of running for President, but what did his runs do to the Left?

THE DEATH OF STALIN: Bye-Bye Bernie - What did we learn from the primary campaign of Bernie Sanders, the socialist from Vermont from Brooklyn who once again made a strong but unsuccessful run at the Democratic nomination?

(1) The union-hall Left is without a representative for its traditional immigration restrictionism. Sanders was for years a forthright immigration restrictionist. Throughout the 2016 campaign, he went to union halls and gave speeches denouncing “open borders,” which he characterized as a “Koch-brothers proposal” to flood the United States with cheap immigrant labor and thereby undercut the position of the U.S. working class. “It does not make a lot of sense to me to bring hundreds of thousands of those workers into this country to work for minimum wage and compete with Americans kids,” he said. The identity-politics Left bullied him into "evolving" on the issue.

(2) The demographic shift in the Democrat Party is not necessarily a shift to the left. The Democrats are run by a caste of relatively well-off white people (the little old liberal white ladies) but the numbers and the votes increasingly come from a party base that is less affluent and less white. Sanders’s movement is dominated by champagne socialists: well-off, college-educated white people who resented having to pay back their Cornell student loans. Black voters, on the other hand, strongly preferred Joe Biden, a more moderate Democratic hack of the familiar kind. African Americans were not brought into the Democratic Party by Barack Obama—they were brought into the Democratic Party by Franklin Roosevelt. Their politics have been, broadly speaking, a New Deal politics. The boutique radicalism of well-off Millennial college graduates raised in the suburbs of wherever may not be the future of the Democratic Party.

(3) Sanders is an echo of Trump in that party establishments do not matter very much when it comes to fund-raising or message-broadcasting — he is not even a member of the party whose nomination he sought. It seems unlikely that a finally successful populist movement within the Democrat Party is going to look like what the naive children of the Sanders movement were hoping for. The affluent and educated Sanders element is culturally adjacent to the Clintonite Davos Democrats and their program of elite technocracy.

 

Comical. Any Bernie or Biden negative comment is replied to with “Trump worse” comment.

So the left knows both Joe and Bernie suck as nominees and their only “defense” for them is “better than Trump”

“My guy ain’t as sucky as your guy!” Bumper stickers With a picture of Joe on it.

 

THE DEATH OF STALIN: Bernie Sanders Endorses Former Rival Joe Biden: ‘We Need You in the White House.’

Twitter, “All beret. No Ché.”

 

Wonder how much he was paid...this time?

 

Maybe, but you have to ask yourself how much did he make in the last four years? I don't think he ever wanted to be President. The guy is a scammer.

 

I'll bet he got the idea after getting 13 million votes to Hillary's 16 million in 2016. If he ran an independent he could easily Bork Biden, so I bet the pay off is huge.

 

Are you talking about the same intel that was leaky as a rusty paint can?

 

They won't. Not any more than they did last time. A goodly number if them hate the DNC establishment as much if not more than they hate Trump, and by the way neocons dumping on Trump just make Trump even more palatable to the largely irrational loons that make up the Bernie Brigade.

 

The desperate bickering Dems uniting into a team now...too bad the name Motley Crue is already in use, that would have really fit them well
