Whether it be mini mike and his height and low energy, Liz Warren and her bogus heritage claim, Pete not representing the values of the nation, or Biden being a ******* relic... trump's going to have crazy illegal support- anyone is going to be in tough. Bernie and his socialism will get hammer too... but Bernie seems to be the only one in the field that has real momentum. Barring an even crazier cheating effort than last time or a crazy last minute scandal, trump would get whooped by anyone. But not Bernie.

Was referring more to entities such as pharmaceutical industry, insurance industry, the ole military industrial complex.....who gobble up billions, while millions of Americans can't get proper insurance, health care etc. JCon 1

I thought in all 1 on 1 polls Bernie was actually the candidate best suited to take trump on.
johnzo Posted February 25, 2020 Report Posted February 25, 2020 Which previously depressed areas? Are they the same ones with the illegal voting problems?
Zontar Posted February 25, 2020 Report Posted February 25, 2020 Sanders will try to sell it as Scandinavian style statism. Meanwhile his "bros" are gunning for full on eat -the- rich 1917 style .
17to85 Posted February 25, 2020 Report Posted February 25, 2020 The rich need to be eaten quite frankly.
do or die Posted February 25, 2020 Report Posted February 25, 2020 They have nothing to fear from Trump any in any case. Having chiseled on his own taxes, he certainly will defend their ability to use a multitude of tax and investment loopholes to live high off the hog. Example: Amazon not only did not pay any US federal income tax - but received a 129 Million tax rebate.

I thought in all 1 on 1 polls Bernie was actually the candidate best suited to take trump on. I wasn’t a Warren fan early but honestly I think she’s the ideal candidate. When trump treats her like he rested Hilary and probably worse, it won’t look good. Hilary has the “*****” thing where people disliked her and her trump still was considered a bully and misogynistic. To warren he’s look like a serial killer. But Bernie....Bernie can put forth a good argument. He will hold his own because he’s a prick too. But point being is, it will be all about Bernie. Bernies politics. Bernies policies. Bernies misdeeds. Not trumps. Bernie will be on the defensive the whole campaign. They said Reagan was too old. Bernie is ancient and has a bad heart. It will also be a referendum on his running mate. He almost has to pick to Warren to be honest. Because he can’t pick any of the losers because trump will designate them the real nominee and why weren’t they the nominee? Wanna-B-Fanboy 1
17to85 Posted February 25, 2020 Report Posted February 25, 2020 I completely disagree with your take. That is the hope of the corporate media whose owners don't want to actually have to pay taxes. Bernie is the best at engaging people of all the candidates. He is strong at messaging and won't get sucked into trying to not offended anyone. Yeah he's old as **** and that's a negative, but the guy had built a following. He's got support for a reason. It's the same reason there is a faction that supports trump no matter what. He tells them what they want to hear. Except in Bernie's case it's not racism but things that will actually help people.

Like I said. I hope I’m wrong. Bernie isn’t holding a majority of democratic primary voting though. He’s winning. But with a large field he’s winning with 20-30%. He could actually still lose the nomination. The candidates who are out of it should quit now. Let Bernie, Biden & Warren battle it out. There is no doubt Bernie can capture the far left vote. But there is a lot of middle ground. We’re all logical people with common sense. We’re not racists or delusional. So we assume the vast middle ground will vote against trump. Bernie can beat trump. Hell you or I could beat trump. He’s awful. But he’s the candidate trump wants and he’s the candidate Russia wants for a reason. Because he’s less likely to whoop trump then any of the other front runners. If Bernie is the nominee and beats trump I’ll come here and gladly say I was wrong. But I think every election has an attack strategy. It’s either the age or inexperience or health or whatever of the candidate. Bernie is all of those.
17to85 Posted February 25, 2020 Report Posted February 25, 2020 Choose between a better social safety net, affordable healthcare, a more equitable system or racism... there is no middle ground let's not kid ourselves. The oligarchy in the US has dragged everything to the right that their cries for the middle ground are still right wing ****. Trump might want Bernie, but I think anyone else is an easier target because the people of the US want change. It's the entire reason trump himself got elected. He was different than other politicians. As for Russia, they want Bernie cause they want chaos and the democratic party imploding on itself is good for chaos, and that might happen if Bernie wins.

"In 2012 oil, gas and petroleum products accounted for over 70% of total exports,As of the 2nd quarter of 2015 inflation, compared to the second quarter of 2014, was 8%; the economy had contracted by 4.6%Russia is rated one of the most unequal of the world’s major economies,A poll completed in 2018 among 1400 managers of non-hydrocarbons Russian businesses demonstrated high level of pessimism, with majority describing the economic situation in the country as "catastrophic". 73% of respondents in large businesses and 77% in medium and small are dealing with a "crisis"... wiki amazing that a country so badly run, can cause so much trouble.

Zontar Posted February 25, 2020 Report Posted February 25, 2020 Practically the entire US MSM pushed the conspiracy theory that Trump was a Russian asset . For three years.

blue_gold_84 Posted February 25, 2020 Report Posted February 25, 2020 Yes, Zonty… The coronavirus was artificially manufactured in a Chinese lab, more than three years after the fact, to undermine Donald Trump's presidency. You're supposed to wear the tinfoil, not eat it. And Limbaugh has credibility like he has good health. But feel free to cry about the "evil Murican MSM" and their pushing of conspiracy theories.
