POLITICS Democratic Nominee 2020 Lollapalooza

I get it. I don't agree entirely but I get it.

 

It's only a wrong when democrats do it

 

Have we ever in politics?

 

We can start. We are not beholden to the past.

 

Pipe dream. Imo

 

We, you and I, can choose to dream that dream, though. I cannot control the other 350 million people in the USA, but, for what it is worth, you and I can hold these people responsible for their lying.

It is hard to fight off cynicism, and we are all victims of it, myself included.

 

I'll start as soon as my guy is out of office - politics.

 

The ballot box will tell.

 

Pot meet Kettle. I have seen your frustration when someone says Trump did not say exactly X and you reply; Yeah but it was clearly implied. The Ukraine story being a case in point.

 

Good point. Does it look worse when running as the Anti-Trump [truth tellers]?

If you are going to give us more of the same then why change.

 

a Warren analogy to that would be if warren's kids were actually two chihuahuas that went to obedience school run by a 4-H club.

 

Wowsers. Now the far left is hitting Warren with purity tests. Surprising for a second or two, but then I remembered reality.

It’s truly a religion

 

No mortal can stand acceptable, it's truly ridiculous. but it is also an artifact of a small noisy group having the ability to amplify their message nationally with social media.

 

Absolutely. And I'm constantly reminding myself social media is not real life. However, as you say, it does amplify fringe opinions to appear more mainstream than they truly are.

 

Q very well could be an outlier, but it reflects the recent Pete surge. We'll see how he holds up against the attacks, and man are they coming in hot (from the left).

“President Obama privately said he would speak up to stop Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) from becoming the Democratic presidential nominee, Politico reported Tuesday.

The former president reportedly said if Sanders held a strong lead in the Democratic primary, he would speak out to prevent him from becoming the nominee.”

 

That is interesting. That would kill Sanders. Imo

 

The left is going to have a hard time boxing in their extremist and where that line is.
