Has nothing to do with "socialism" -- it has everything to do with the Democrat corporate establishment trying to hold on to power...

Remember when you dic suckers had a hissy fit over your fears that the "republican establishment" may deny Trump the nomination??

Bernie has won all 3 primaries -- that tells me that its the establishment who is out of touch with their base (AS THEY HAVE ALWAYS BEEN) -- not Bernie....and simply yelling "socialism" whenever your policies fail didn't work against Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid -- and I don't remember many so-called Trumpers yelling socialism when government continues to bail out banks and corporations...

"Has nothing to do with "socialism" -- it has everything to do with the Democrat corporate establishment trying to hold on to power.."

I would agree with the idea that Democrat Politicians don't want the party to go the way of The Whigs by turning it over to a radical Socialist who is not even a Democrat.

Go Bernie!

No one will defeat President Trump.

Has nothing to do with "socialism"

Au contraire, it has everything to do with socialism. Though the establishment Democrats support it, they know they cannot win with an openly Socialist candidate.

 

[Mac-7]

For many in the Democratic Party, socialism is a bridge too far. The New York Times has interviewed several Democratic leaders, including 93 superdelegates, a majority of who said they oppose handing Bernie Sanders the party's nomination should the democratic socialist fail to reach a majority of delegates before the national convention in July.


The Times found overwhelming opposition to the idea of giving the presidential nomination to Bernie Sanders should the candidate lead in the delegate count but fail to obtain a decisive majority, teeing up a brokered convention. While such a scenario is considered unlikely, the prospect of a Sanders' nomination and a still-crowded Democratic field, party leaders are giving serious consideration to such a possibility.


Superdelegates Oppose Handing Bernie the Nomination if Candidate Falls Short in Delegate Count


BJ - The Actual Party People know that Sanders equals death -

Bernie and his rabid snowflake rabble are a definite sticky wicket for the dems

they are damned if they do and damned if they dont

Democratic Superdelegates Say They’re Willing To Prevent Sanders From Becoming The Nominee

Us liberals wish Clinton and Obama were more liberal.

Clinton signed into law gw Bush’s nafta and the dumb fucker deregulated the media allowing the rich to buy it all.

we need a Bernie or warren otherwise we will get another corporate democrat

we need a fdr. That’s Bernie or warren.

do we want to take our country back or not?

Move to Venezuela or Cuba then.

No, you move when we take this country back. If the poor and middle class would only show up and vote they could take the country back.

Right now this country is working great for the rich. Guys like me. The blue collar that were struggling under Bush/Obama are still struggling. Trump gave them a $1 hr raise. I know you'll say that's better than nothing but it's not good enough. And Bernie will explain that to voters. How all the profits are going to the top 1% and the owners, not the employees.

When we ran things it worked like this

The rich The middle class The poor
111 111111111111111111111111111111111111111 1111111111111111

Now that your way is the way things work it looks more like this

The rich The middle class The poor
111 11111111 111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111

You have to laugh at how corrupt the Dimms are

• The New York Times interviewed 93 Democratic superdelegates, 84 of which said Sen. Bernie Sanders shouldn’t become the nominee based solely on winning most, but not over 50%, of primary and caucus delegates.
• “If 60% is not with Bernie Sanders, I think that says something, I really do,” Democratic Rep. Veronica Escobar of Texas told The Times.
• The odds of a contested convention are at 48%, according to FiveThirtyEight’s forecasting model Thursday.

 

[Oddball]

DNC will screw him....Bertards will go ape in Milwaukee, then stay home in November.....Trump wins all 58 states.

 

[ColonelAngus]

The Dimms bench is thin, They are in big trouble.

it amuses me no end that Democrats put so much time and effort into trying to undermine the Electoral College for not being "democratic enough", while their party primaries are designed precisely to be as undemocratic as possible.

pretty ironic, isn't it? demand fair elections so popular vote dictates who wins EXCEPT WHEN it comes to their side, then it's who they want, screw "the people".

If not Bernie, who?

The homosexual with no real job experience?

The woman who fraudulently claimed she has Indian ancestry to get a job at Harvard?

The brain damaged old man who molests children on national TV?

Hey now! Don’t you know, Buttigieg “served” in the military. He may have not ever gone to boot camp, OTS, ROTC, or the Academy, but he got a “direct commission” and got to play military Uber driving generals around for a few months in the reserves. He may have never seen combat, but he drove outside the gates of the base. This clearly qualifies him to be Commander-in-Chief!

 

[Cecilie1200]

That's a great way to tip the scale even further in Trump's favor. I promise a lot of Bernie bros are going to jump right onto that Trump train if they fuck Bernie in the primaries.

I doubt that, but I can see them throwing a big, flouncing hissy fit and staying home.

I love how they never really mention the nature of his service.


In 2014, Buttigieg began his deployment at Bagram Air Base in Afghanistan.
Buttigieg joined the U.S. Navy Reserve through the direct commission officer (DCO) program and was sworn in as an ensign in naval intelligence in September 2009.[56] In 2014, he took a seven-month leave during his mayoral term to deploy to Afghanistan.[57][58][59] While there, Buttigieg was part of a unit assigned to identify and disrupt terrorist finance networks. Part of this was done at Bagram Air Base, but he was also an armed driver for his commander on more than 100 trips into Kabul. Buttigieg has jokingly referred to this role as "military Uber", because he had to watch out for ambushes and explosive devices along the roads and ensure that the vehicle was guarded.[60] In order to better communicate with the local Afghans, he learned some Dari (a dialect of the Persian language). Buttigieg was awarded the Joint Service Commendation Medal[5] and resigned his commission from the U.S. Navy Reserve in 2017.[61][62]

TRUMP'S 2020 CHALLENGERS ACCUSE GOP OF TRYING TO PROTECT THE PRESIDENT AS INCREASING NUMBER OF STATES SCRAP PRIMARY CONTESTS
Trump's 2020 challengers rip GOP leaders for keeping them off state ballots

Republicans Bill Weld and Joe Walsh's long-shot campaigns against President Donald Trump are getting even more difficult as a growing number of states are cancelling their 2020 GOP primaries.

On Tuesday, Wisconsin became the latest state to block the two candidates from appearing on the primary ballot. So far at least nine states—Alaska, Arizona, Georgia, Hawaii, Kansas, Minnesota, Nevada, South Carolina and Wisconsin—have essentially decided to give their delegates to Trump without a contest.

Both Walsh and Weld slammed the decision to cancel primaries as undemocratic and accused GOP leaders of simply acting as the president's defenders.

"I get that impeachment is a big story, and it should be; and what is going on in Iran right now is a big story. This should be a big story too though. It's unprecedented. It's being done to protect Trump, period," Walsh told Newsweek on Wednesday.

In a statement to Newsweek, Weld added: "We do not elect presidents by acclamation, and, Donald Trump's wishes notwithstanding, we rejected the idea of a monarchy 240 years ago. By canceling primaries or denying challengers from appearing on the ballot, handfuls of Trump-controlled party officials are effectively telling millions of Republicans that they have no voice in the nomination process."

^^ Seriously, THANK YOU for that post.

If we force BERNARD on them by crossing over, the odds are 90-10 Trump wins. You can NEVER say 100%, but that 90-10 is pretty good odds.

The rest of the group besides Warren?

Your odds shrink depending upon who/whom it is. With the Corona virus, the Left is going to be crowing and pointing all the way to November, and the more that happens, the more the Market is going to drop or be lackluster, and the Left will crow about that too.

So, you want a 9 in 10 chance? Give them BERNARD. You want them to have a much better chance? Let them pick who they want!
