    There was an option. Form a coalition with libertarian minded members of the GOP and explain to the people wtf is going on. It's kind of funny how liberals ALWAYS lose. They wouldn't even be in this position if the squad didn't vote for Pelosi. It makes me absolutely sick to my stomach to see the weakness of progressive leadership. Why are they so reluctant to tell the whole truth? If we declared war against the democratic establishment in 2016 instead of trying to make nice with sociopaths then we might have an actual viable movement.

    I don't even know what to say right now. The Democrats (Bernie and the Squad included) have handed Donald Trump UNPRECEDENTED power and they've been doing so since day 1. A massive military budget increase, the re-authorization of the Patriot act and now this. Even more insane authoritarian surveillance authority and a fucking 4 trillion dollar blank check. Guys....we need to do something. We might need a general strike. When are they going to start resisting? Isn't this the guy who is under control of Putin? Why would you continue to hand him more power? This is just insane. We're not going to get this done in the political arena. We need a reformation.

    Props to @BCfor helping to keep this tradition going. 

    I was torn between Lamb and Brown. I decided to go with Brown just because it's so important to win at the line of scrimmage in football and Brown is a monster that's been tested against the best competition in college football.

    It’s a shame. The way things are going it appears there’s no winning. 

    That's why we need a functioning government where peoplr actually vote in ligitimate elections to stop them from stealing all the benefits of that technology that they didn't even create. They just funded it. Money is not real dawg. It's imaginary. Human beings, resources, the planet on the other hand are real.

    It's over. I'm still really disappointed that she would endorse Biden. Bernie should have had her back since November but he's obviously too weak for this fight. It should have been Tulsi the whole time because she wouldn't have let Biden off the hook. Still very very disappointed. Fuck this, man.

    Unfortunately social security isn’t being used today as it was originally intended.  They will never get rid of it now because so many people depend on it when they shouldn’t. Now we’re just paying to appease and keep the status quo. 
     

    In fact when I was younger I repeatedly applied to work for several railroads because I didn’t want to pay into SS. 

     

    Medicaid isn’t as terrible but just like anything the government runs has a lot of abuse and fraud. Just can’t trust them to do anything right with your money. 
     


     


     

     

    Because there is no waste or nepitism in the private sector :yao:

    the builder that my company sub contracts for wastes probably millions of dollars in construction meterial a year and based on what my friends and family tell me of working in a more corporate, office type scenario, they're not exactly efficient either. Also, people are tried and convicted for embezzling from companies literally every single day. Lol

    Pelosi and the leadership of the Democratic Party are utter fucking scum. These are the people who are supposed to save us from Trump? This is all a move to prevent Trump from gaining political capital which is hilariously stupid because now he's about to get ten fold what he would have gotten. The Democratic Party needs to be destroyed. Anyone who votes for Biden is an absolute cuck. What will you say when he reaches across the aisle to dismantle social safety net programs and expand fracking? How about when he expands military aggression and bails out the banks again leaving the rest of us out in the cold? What about when he puts a neo-liberal in the supreme court? We could always make constitutional amendments to save abortion and civil rights. That will EASILY happen once more and more of the younger generations are eligible to vote and these old pieces of shit who have ruined our country and quite possibly the world have died off lol.

    How ironic will it be to see Trump ride UBI to his second term in office? The Democratic party is COM-PLETELY inept. Hopefully at least they will finally be wiped out after once again failing to beat Trump. Fucking losers. Old people need to step aside. They've destroyed our planet. They've ruined our economy. They've signed away our bill of rights for a false sense of security. Step. The. Fuck. Aside.

    "By voting for Biden, you endorse the humiliation of courageous women such as Anita Hill who confronted their abusers. You vote for the architects of the endless wars in the Middle East. You vote for the apartheid state in Israel. You vote for wholesale surveillance of the public by government intelligence agencies and the abolition of due process and habeas corpus. You vote for austerity programs, including the destruction of welfare and cuts to Social Security. You vote for NAFTA, free trade deals, de-industrialization, a decline in wages, the loss of hundreds of thousands of manufacturing jobs and the offshoring of jobs to underpaid workers who toil in sweatshops in China or Vietnam. You vote for the assault on public education and the transfer of federal funds to for-profit and Christian charter schools. You vote for the doubling of our prison population, the tripling and quadrupling of sentences and huge expansion of crimes meriting the death penalty. You vote for militarized police who gun down poor people of color with impunity.  You vote against the Green New Deal and immigration reform. You vote for limiting a woman’s right to abortion and reproductive rights. You vote for a segregated public-school system in which the wealthy receive educational opportunities and poor people of color are denied a chance. You vote for punitive levels of student debt and the inability to free yourself of debt obligations through bankruptcy. You vote for deregulating the banking industry and the abolition of Glass-Steagall. You vote for the for-profit insurance and pharmaceutical corporations and against universal health care. You vote for bloated defense budgets. You vote for the use of unlimited oligarchic and corporate money to buy our elections. You vote for a politician who during his time in the Senate abjectly served the interests of MBNA, the largest independent credit card company headquartered in Delaware, which also employed Biden’s son Hunter."

    Who's going to care about that? The moderates that just want Trump gone? Don't think so. The far left? They're not going to be persuaded by Trump attack ads, they've made up their minds one way or another already. Trump's base? For sure, but they'd vote for him no matter if Jesus was running against him.

    Trump's die-hard supporters are a cult at this point. You're certainly trying to make the case that Bernie's die hard ones are as well.

    Bernie is getting smashed next Tuesday and from here on out. His last shot was this past primary. I re-iterate: Voter fraud is not a thing. Quit spreading baseless conspiracy theories.

    Now, I do think they need to have the debate to give Biden some practice in a 1-on-1 scenario, but Bernie has zero chance of turning this around.

    The American people, at least the Dem electorate, do not want to risk that the country will go from far right to far left in one election. They want Trump out and Biden has always given them the best chance to attract Never Trumpers and moderates. If the far left would actually show up to the polls, they would win, but time and again they prove that they care more about talking on social media than actually voting. Until they do so, the Dems have no reason to prioritize their votes over the moderate Dems that actually show up to the voting booth.

    Edit to add: Since Biden's health will likely be attacked, he needs a strong VP pick, one that not only Dems can support but one that the moderates wouldn't be too upset with. I think Julian Castro would be a good pick strategically for those reasons and one more. A lot of Bernie's support comes from the Latino coalition that built up behind him. Castro would potentially persuade some of them to vote for Biden that wouldn't otherwise. I think he's more likely to go with Kamala Harris, and that would be ok as well, but purely from a strategic standpoint, I think Castro is better.

    Sorry, I won't have my vote extorted by billionaire democratic donors. Maybe if the DNC thought they might be in danger of imploding we might get medicare for all. You don't get shit if you constantly refuse to fight for anything. I will NEVER vote for Joe Biden. I'm voting Green Party. You should too. Honestly to get anything out of these pieces of shit we need to get out in the streets. Civil Rights didn't get accomplished, women's rights, unions, none of that shit without people getting out in the streets and fighting for it. Just voting Democrat and hoping they save us is a losing strategy. It's obvious Bernie was way too weak to be a revolutionary at this point. He should have been talking about Biden's dementia since South Carolina.

    Unlike Bernie and the rest of the democrats, Trump will be all over Biden's record, his lies, his obvious dimentia and the fact that he's a creep ( I realize Trump is but he can make it look like a push). Biden is completely untested. He can't defend himself. He will get destroyed by Trump and the GOP. You guys are out of your minds to think Biden is a better choice to go against Trump than Bernie. Absolutely out of your minds.

    The Bernie bros are much more like Trump than they realize, Thanny.

    And F4E called it: Bernie's coalition wasn't as strong as it appeared in 2016; it was just that plenty of Democrats could see Hillary sucked. Too bad the DNC couldn't.

    I would call Trump the favorite for sure, but Biden has much more of a chance than a self-described 79-year-old socialist who recently had a heart attack, fair or not.

     

    Yoy think Joe Biden REALLY has a chance against Trump? Bro....the GOP is going to DESTROY Biden and he can't even defend himself. I'm sure the American people are going to buy the stuttering defense. There's no way this guy is legitimately winning a primary. I'm sorry, i just can't buy that. People have known about this since Castro and Booker called him out months ago (which btw the GOP will absolutely use in attack ads.) Biden has ZERO chance. Zero. If you think he does, you're in denial. Lol

    Trump has already been re-elected lol. It doesn't matter if Bernie runs 3rd party or not. Maybe he could actually get enought votes to make a 3rd party more viable. Biden has zero chance at winning. The GOP is already running some vicious attack ads. Ads that Bernie was too scared to run and now we have 4 more years of Trump.

    Donald Trump just won re-election tonight lol. Biden has less than zero chance of beating Trump. More will come out about the election fraud and voter suppression.

    More will come out. Voter purges, games with the ballots and the machines. All the power of Wallstreet and the party machinery, all that money. It's all against Sanders. I can't believe you guys think these primary results are legit. 

    If Bernie Sanders endorses Biden I'm done with him. It means that he doesn't give a fuck about any of his goals with climate change, healthcare, ending the wars...none of it. Grow some balls and run 3rd party. Biden is going to get dismantled.
