Is the DNC screwing Sanders again?

[toomuchtime_]

The trial has only been going on for a few days, but what if it goes on for weeks?

Same..won't matter...In fact, Bernie's numbers may get better in the Super Tuesday states that Biden still has a big advantage in.

So you think Bernie does better when he doesn't campaign. Interesting.

I think his messages resonate with voters. And this time, there's no unpopular candidate running against him. He appeals to the Trump voter (2016) and the progressive...and that scares Trump (and his supporters).

Actually, Republicans are hoping Sanders will win the nomination. Biden would be a more difficult candidate to beat despite his his obvious mental deficits, but Bernie the Marxist will be much easier.

Other way around. Biden has the most political baggage and history. He's also proven he's on par with Trump linguistically (lots of gaffes). On a debate stage, they are equal...until a serious policy discussion starts and then Joe can wrestle. In the format, I don't think the debate moderators will be as flexible this time around.

But Sanders?...Trump's toast before he takes the stage. Sanders has been consistent in his policy views for his political life. If Trump has to start explaining his positions on the intricacies of healthcare and taxes, he's done.

I agree with you that Bidne is a terrible candidate, but he is running as Obama's VP and he is promising eight more years, if he lives that long, of more of the same. That appeals to moderate and most of the US is moderate. If he hadn't been Obama's VP, I don't think Biden would even be in this race, but he was and that makes him seem familiar and safe to a great many, perhaps most, Democrats. There is nothing safe about Bernie.

As you say, Bernie has the same policies now he had as a young man, and that either means that he understood everything perfectly as a young man and had nothing to learn from experience or he is just incapable of learning from experience.

Trump was not a great debater in 2016. It would be fair to say Hillary pretty much had her way with him, but he was a great campaigner and despite Hillary spending much more than he did, he ran a much smarter campaign. Trump will be much more formidable candidate this time around, and Bernie will just be the radical who cheered for the ayatollahs when they were holding Americans hostage and who wants to destroy our booming economy so that while he wants to provide free college, he also wants to destroy the economy for ideological reasons so that there will be no jobs after college.

If Sanders wins the nomination it will just be too easy.

lol If you can do arithmetic, you can tell the trial will end in acquittal. Twenty Republicans would have to vote with the Democrats to convict, and that is not going to happen.

The Democratic race is really between Biden and Sanders at this point, so the longer Sanders can't campaign, the better it will be for Biden. Remember that in 2016, the DNC cheated outrageously to deny Sanders the nomination, so nothing is beyond them this time around.

Two things to say about that post:

2nd paragraph: I agree, good point.

1st paragraph: did you predict the Wuhan coronavirus? If not, you can't predict the future. Our minds run on tracks. Reality swirls all around us in several dimensions --- that's why things happen we don't expect. Reality is freer than we are. The impeachment isn't over till it's over.

lol How mystical of you! There is simply no possibility of twenty Republicans voting to convict a Republican president months before an election.

Calling witnesses will extend the impeachment trial, perhaps for weeks. Since we all know that the trial will end in acquittal no matter how long it takes, is the Democratic leadership, which supports Biden, demanding witnesses in order to prevent Sanders from campaigning?

Of course they are...he's too old, too white and too heterosexual.

Right and you’re a big tough, manly man huh? Your insecurities really show.

Well, I hope not. But I'm trying to train myself not to be so assured in predictions (or never make them, better) because the unexpected keeps happening. No one predicted Bolton's manuscript, after all.

He's also too weak.

He backed down after losing the Calif primary to Clinton in 2016, when he announced they would fight on the Convention
Floor, he was then immediately summoned to Washington for a meeting with Obama. They gave him a spot the first night
and that was it. He shut his mouth after that. Which drove a lot of his people away from him.

Bernie doesn't have the guts to buck those people. He is easily intimidated.

he is a fucking hypocrite.....period....

That's true, also.

Bernie right now has the momentum among the Dems. The Bernie brigades are still very angry at how the rigged Democrat Primary system (yes, rigged, by superdelegates) stole the nomination from him and gave it to Crooked Hillary. Yes, very angry. He really did get screwed too I believe.

So, one of two things will happen this time around: Bernie will win or he will get shafted again.

If he gets shafted again, the Sanders groupies will have a cow, and will stay home. There is no way they will give their vote to the party that screwed their guy twice. Trump will win.

OR: Sanders will win the nomination, and Trump will destroy that freakshow. Up until now the fake news media has kept a lid on just how much of a insane extremist communist this imbecile Sanders really is. But when he and his polices and his stupidities and his cabal of Commies gets under the Big Top Spotlight, center stage, in a national election, the GOP will destroy him so badly that he’ll wish he had never been born. They will crush him. Trump will win.

So, honored members and fellow Americans, Trump will win by his own hand and he will be assisted by the socialists. Do not doubt me friends. So when it happens, don’t cry, don’t whine, don’t blame Russians… …just remember your good friend: Me.

ANNALS OF LEFTIST AUTOPHAGY:

He’s not wrong.

 

[Sun Devil 92]

If they are, good. Fuck Sanders.

Actually, I think we want Sanders. Most know his ideas sound good but will be fucked up policy.

Easy Trump victory.

 

[Zorro!]

THIS TRUTHFULNESS IS WHY DEMOCRATS DREAD THE IDEA OF A SANDERS NOMINATION:

It’s not that they don’t fully share his views, it’s just that they don’t want the voters to realize that!

 

[Ken Mac]

yes

 

[LeeOnLido]

tomorrow they need to recount the chads

 

[Zorro!]

yes

Sanders got screwed last time in Iowa, too.

MATT TAIBBI IN ROLLING STONE: Yesterday’s Gone: Iowa Was Waterloo for Democrats. In a fiasco for the ages, the blue party faceplants in Iowa.

“After a vote in Iowa that reeked of third-world treachery — from monolithic TV propaganda against the challenger to rumors of foreign intrusion to, finally, a ‘botched’ vote count that felt as legitimate as a Supreme Soviet election — the Democrats have become the reactionaries they once replaced.”​

They've been the reactionaries for a very long time.

For supporters and volunteers for Senator Bernie Sanders, after four years of being shat upon by party officials and media allies alike (CNN and MSNBC are seen in Sanders crowds as Goebbelsian arms of the Democratic National Committee), Vermont’s anti-corporate crusader has defied odds and soared in polls. All that remains is the Schadenfreude orgasm of a victory speech.

Coinciding with the flatulent end of the party’s impeachment gambit, and the related news that Donald Trump is enjoying climbing approval ratings, the Blue Party was exposed as an incompetent lobby for doomed elites, dumb crooks with nothing left to offer but their exit.

Biden performed surprisingly well all year in polls, but he headed into Iowa like a passenger jet trying to land with one burning engine, hitting trees, cows, cars, sides of mountains, everything.

Some strategy...he's now leading in Iowa and he's been leading in New Hampshire.... and Oh yeah, he's surging in South Carolina and Nevada...yeah..looks like he can sit in Washington DC, perform his constitutional duty and still win....ah...Winning..

This ain't 2016. Strap in.

WaPo, trying to tank Sanders: Let’s face it. None of these Democrats are “centrists.”

They’re all socialists to one degree or another, but Bernie Sanders is the only one honest enough to admit it.

There is nothing honest about Sanders. He is just another politician who will say anything he thinks will get him more votes. For example,

When Bernie Sanders joined the Senate, he and his allies in the labor movement took on a big target: a new comprehensive immigration reform bill.

"I believe we have very serious immigration problems in this country," Sanders said during a 2007 press event, with AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka behind him. "I think as you've heard today, sanctions against employers who employ illegal immigrants is virtually nonexistent. Our border is very porous."

“And I think at a time when the middle class is shrinking, the last thing we need is to bring over in a period of years, millions of people into this country who are prepared to lower wages for American workers,” he later added. Sanders voted against the 2007 bill, but went on to vote in favor of a similar 2013 bill while making plain his fears that it could exacerbate the issue of immigrant workers “making it harder for US citizens to find jobs.”

How Bernie Sanders Has Changed His Approach To Immigration

Now the lying son of a bitch is for open borders because he thinks it will get him more votes, at least in the primaries.

Yup! He's a liar and a fake.

Stand up to Bernie or You – and We – All Lose.

“These and many other aspects of his record would offer Trump a deadly arsenal with which to savage Sanders and down-ballot Democrats. Sanders’ notion that he is the most ‘electable’ among you is laughable on its face, which is why Republicans are campaigning for him. For every voter he ‘mobilizes’ with his radicalism, he will turn out at least one for Trump. Negative partisanship is powerful when the candidates are extreme. Loyal Democrats like us would support Sanders, but too many others wouldn’t.”​

Curious how many of these “anti”-Sanders Democrats would still put party above country on November 3.
