For the longest time, I was worried about Bernie’s chances, but he is the best to defeat Trump

[Mac1958]

Holy crap, talk about contrast. The nutters from both ends would be all fired up, and the rest of the country would be wondering how the fuck we got here.

 

[Harry Dresden]

bernie will probably die within the next 3-4 years....running will be pretty stressful and being president will be even more stressful....the guy has already had a heart attack...so in reality you would be voting for whoever his VP choice would be...

 

[Shrimpbox]

Two questions,
Where has socialism been successful?
How many people have been killed under socialist govt?

 

[Hossfly]

Because he’s a self-identified socialist? Nah. That’s old news is my point.

Nobody in his/her right mind votes for a fucking commie. That's why you commies try to hide your goose-stepping agenda.

No open commie will ever do much.

.

What, specifically, in Bernie’s platform is communist?

Free Shit Platform.

Socialism is the Economic wing of communism..
answer this, when most businesses close, and people are laid off and welfare expands, you build housing. Your country needs to produce, how will you get people to work? Slavery?

So you think if someone other than Trump is president that all will revert, as in employment. Give me a clue that it will.

Answer my question, if you lay me off, give me house and a check, how will you get me to produce?

You don't work, so why should I answer to you?

Perhaps a more moderate democrat is needed in the race, but Biden is old news and Pete just doesn’t have the star power Bernie has. Like Trump, he has an army of enthusiastic supporters.

It’s already been well established that he is a socialist so the thinking that alone will kill his chances is overblown. All Americans already know who he is and what he stands for. Despite this, he beats Trump In hypothetical match up polls and is the most popular politician in the country.

I’m not saying I have total confidence he will win, but I do think he has the best chance out of all the other dem candidates.

Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders has topped Democrats' list of most-liked 2020 candidates, according to new survey

Bernie will play well with his base voters who have been raised since birth to embrace socialism

and if he’s the nominee he will have the democrat party behind him

but its questionable if America is ready to become a communist nation or not

we will see

[LordBrownTrout]

Lol. Roll ol Bernie out there. Nobody but socialist liberal idiots would vote for that buffoon.

 

[Toro]

FFS I never thought I'd ever vote for Trump.

But if the Dems go Full Retard and nominate Bernie, not only will I vote for Orange Jesus, I'll send him money!

Then, Bernie will surely not pick Hillary for VP.

Every shit hole in America is run by democrats

the college debt was created by democrats

The health care mess was created by democrats


Democrats hate Walmart. But create tiny Walmart’s all around Boston kicking the ordinary entrepreneurs out.

democrats are dine! I want to be a campaign manager!

Why do you live in Boston if you don't like it being run by Dems. Are the Waltons Democrats? Who offers student loans, Banks?

 

[blackhawk]

The problem Sanders has is his policies all sound great on the surface you dig below the surface just a little bit and you see how unrealistic they truly are.

No, Billy. Don't let the spin get to you. Bernie can't win.

Does he still rave about Venezuela?

I don't think Trump loses, but Trump could falter down the stretch with unforced errors. As an example, today Trump repeated the "in-some-countries-dealers-get-the-death-penalty" bit, and used Taiwan and even China as examples of where this works and there aren't problems in these countries. You can bet that come the general election, the media will all over these issues to paint him as they want. He's not invincible, so he needs to balance his message especially since his opposition is so broad and fierce.

I view this as damaging to the outreach he has worked on, when black voters are viewing him as someone who wants to use common sense with the justice system, not the "lock them up and throw away the key" positions they view GOP as having.

Maybe he thinks doing this places bigger distance between him and the Dem candidates, and, it helps him in the Rustbelt communities impacted by these poisons. From a political standpoint, in my opinion, it's an unnecessary road to go down He doesn't need to present this position to prove he support Rule of Law, everyone assumes he will be moreso than his Dem opponent, so why go further? What demographic are you trying to pick up at the expense of another?

Also, the $100M given to China re: the Coronavirus outbreak seems at least odd, considering the Communist govt. wealth. Again, this could get replayed during the G.E.

There is some cross over with Bernie and Trump supporters. Especially on 2nd Amendment rights and the general role as the outsider. I won't ever count out anyone, but I think Bernie faces a big obstacle with the DNC. If Trump can stay on message and not allow himself to be painted as a traditional GOP but instead, more libertarian (not full libertarian of course), he will win. If he fumbles, anything is possible, even with a great economy.

Yep, Bernie was for 2 amendment before Trump was and he still is very pro.

You used the words "Bernie" and "2nd Amendment" in the same sentence."

Then you don't know shit about Bernie. Just tell me when trump became so pro 2 amendment?

Like anyone is going to believe an avowed communist, when they say "If you like your guns, you can keep your guns..."

 

[Bootney Lee Farnsworth]

What's funny is the Dems could have my vote if they would nominate a freedom-first, non-commie. But, for the past 65 years, they have been governed and overrun by commies.

Kill a commie for mommy.

Who creates employment? Businesses and industries, not the government. And when the government starts raising taxes on businesses and industries, forcing them to pay some idiotic "living wage", and increasing regulations on them, they stop hiring. They go out of business or go offshore.

Socialism is not "business-friendly". Neither are any of the other Democratic candidates, for that matter. All they would do is fuck up the good thing we have going now.

Damn, I wonder why I paid more to the Federal G for 2019.

It seems like you post out of frustration because no one takes you seriously enough as a troll.

 

[shockedcanadian]

As I said, on The Five right now, Greg and others openly admit, Pete is going for the libertarian vote, and in my opinion it will only work if Trump takes the extreme position. Petes position is far too libertarian to the extreme. I don't think Americans want that, but, it can drag out some who believe entirely that "what you do is your business" and will support him on this. He only needs to grab a few points from Trump in key states.

All these candidates want to do is find where Trump is on a position and take a middle ground position just to take a few votes. The same way Trump has been on Justice Reform to reach out to the black community. It, along with Opportunity Zones. Both are viewed positively by Black Americans who just want sanity and the ability to reach their potential. Who doesn't want that?
