The liberals have been running the Democratic Party for years and it is even more pronounced now. Democratic politicians have secretly supported far-left policies for decades but they have had to sugar coat it to get some "normal" people to vote for them. Slowly but surely they are getting what they want, which is a hard move to the left.
You aren't paying attention, skippy. The Moderates and Conservatives in the Democratic Party are all coming together to support one person while the Liberals are cut in two.
Correction: The Biden supporters are coalescing while the Bernie supporters are abandoned.
So in November do not look for Bernie supporters to vote for Joe Biden, just like in 2016.
Biden has the majority of the Democratic Party and Voters behind him. Like the part of the rump, Bernie doesn't have the majority, he just has the LOUDEST!!!!
Agreed Bernie does not have a majority, but he does have a loyal following.
Trump only has 95% of the GOP, the other 5% are globalist RINOs who are replaced by union democrats who like Trump's shaking lots of construction work loose, especially pipeline work. My point is "who will capture more of the other parties' voters?"
Will more GOP voters vote for Biden, or more democrats vote for Trump?
You bring up pipeline work. When a Pipeline comes through your community, about 40% of the jobs are local. Normally, it's done by a prime contractor. Those extra jobs and economy boost last just a matter of weeks until it is finished and it moves to the next county or state. Once the pipeline is finished, there might be a total of 27 additional jobs to maintain the pipeline for a couple of hundred miles and those jobs go to whatever company that paid for the pipeline. The longer term jobs do not go to the locals and never have. So let's not mention that with a straight face.
It's funny, Rump hasn't shaken a single construction job around here. The Railroad has had a dramatic cutback of workers, the Coal Mines are all but shut down. Industry is moving south and has been since the early 90s. What's funny, in the blue part of Colorado, there are stretches that have less than a 1.7% unemployment rate but in this red area, we are pushing 8. The President *ANY PRESIDENT* has zero affect in that. If you absolutely need a job with decent wages, go to eastern Colorado but you have to work for it. The Young is moving away from that. Around here, if you want a decent paying job you will move. So let's not bring that up either. Let's not give Rump credit for the good stuff and I won't ding him for the poor work conditions and pay around here.
The Dems that voted in the Primaries, at an 87% rate, are angry with how things have turned out. That is what Bernie uses to feed his campaign. It's exactly what Rump used to get elected in 2016. And you are still trying to use that anger. Once the primaries are done, come July, it's going to be one person that Rump has to face. And the Reps have already bee bagged for trying to manipulate the primaries for the Dems in the Red Areas. Even around here. In one drop box in a predominately democrat area, they neglected to pick up the Ballots from the drop box in 2019 for a state/local election. That was just discovered about a week ago. It's too late to count those ballots into the vote. What's sad is, the Republican ran office in charge of it has come up with some pretty sorry excuses. And even has said that they need more money to hire more people. Yet, they don't have the positions filled they already are authorized. Of course, the County turned that request down for obvious reasons. You see, we have 3 county commissioners and one is Dem which is the normal mix here. That person in charge of that office still has her friggin job. She should have been rode out of town on a rail covered with tar and feathers. So this year, they'll try and figure out another way to cheat the system.
Both Rump and Bernie want Revolutions. This is not what I want to hear from my President. I want a President that gets up in the morning and checks to see if the lights are on, the schools are operating properly, the roads are in good shape, the Dams aren't about to burst (many are in bad repair). I want a President that looks into the camera and says that things are okay today. And works to make it better for everyone. That isn't Rump or Bernie who just want to burn it to the ground and start all over again.
