Bernie Sanders 2020 Watch

[bad_teammate 13132]

Exactly how I would feel around Harris and Gillibrand, as well.

[Hugo Stiglitz 23356]

Lol MSNBC just cut off Andrew Yang mid interview to go to Bernie Sanders praying for the victims and presser.  

[bad_teammate 13132]

we go hoop

 

[bad_teammate 13132]

Shameful of this minx to try and seduce Bernie, a HAPPILY MARRIED MAN

 

[Tom 2959]

I voted Bernie in 2105/2016 but have been Team Warren since before any candidacies were announced this election.  I've been Team Warren this cycle but just listened to Bernie on Joe Rogan's podcast today and I may be back to feeling the Bern.  This guy has been fighting the war before most of us were smart enough to realize we were in a war.  He's good.  

I just hope one of these two can grab the nomination.

[Hugo Stiglitz 23356]

I wish Bernie would have started building his movement 30 years ago.  I don’t hold it against him that he didn’t shoot for the moon earlier but man, this guy was just sitting there in Congress while we went through the Clintons and the Bushs.  Fuck us for not noticing.

The 1989 Hugo would have been running a Russia fall of the Soviet Union angle on ole Bernie that would make 2019 heads spin.

I didn't know you felt that way.  Please tell me more.

[bad_teammate 13132]

We need to build public housing. He is the only candidate (AFAIK, please correct me) proposing this.

Warren talked about it in the past, but her housing policy was all public subsidies to developers who promise to build affordable housing.

Most of the other stuff in that list is pretty boilerplate Dem shit.

 

[bad_teammate 13132]

Bernie on Rogan has 3M YT viewers in about 19 hours. Yang is at 3.4M in 5 months.

Oh the Ro Khanna method. 

Quote

On Tuesday evening, New York Rep. Joe Crowley tweeted that he had won the support of progressive Rep. Ro Khanna, D-Calif., in an increasingly heated primary in Queens and the Bronx. By Wednesday morning, following an outpouring of anger at Khanna, the endorsement had become a “dual endorsement” of both Crowley and his opponent, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

projects don't work, become crime infested ghettos.  Best to move poor people out with good jobs.  In Houston and Dallas, the poor blacks of 40 years ago have moved into middle class areas by the tens of thousands. Upward social mobility by education and jobs , follow the American dream.

We have lower economic and social mobility than most of our Western allies. Myths aren't good for policy.

The "good jobs" are the difference. Geographic density isn't the issue.

[bad_teammate 13132]

Bernie is in the Top 20 of Joe Rogan's most viewed YT interviews after a day and a half.

Every other interview in that range is 4+ months old.

[Hank Kingsley 20676]

Bernie/Rogan 2020. 

NBC revives Fear Factor with Rogan hosting and the contestants are all extremely wealthy people. You're welcome.

I've spent all my life in the Houston and DFW suburbs and can see the improvement of black folks.  They are indeed movin' on up.

Look at these crime infested ghettos... that these people came from. While following the American Dream you still need somewhere to sleep. How can one accomplish anything without a place to live?

The only legitimate American dream!

unlike anyone else here, including you.  The point was that black folks are a hell of a lot more numerous in places where were almost all white a few decades ago.  And it's not because of housing projects.

I do not believe anyone here is arguing affordable housing is the cause for anyone moving up in the world. It is simply a way to help ensure people aren’t sleeping in the streets. 

But don’t let me stop you from using phrases like poor blacks, projects, and crime infested ghettos when describing the totality of the situation.

Bernie out here ready to DESTROY people in softball.

Go easy on 'em, berno

Try not to spludge all over the place, BT.

The man is legendary regardless of what happens next. Still think he gets it done in 2020. The Rogan podcast now has close to 7M views in 3 days. Reading the comments is pretty encouraging as well. Many people seeing Bernie for who he is for the first time it seems. Amazing but whatever I’ll take it. I’d love to see Joe Biden go an hour answering unscripted questions. Would qualify for a comedy special.

I may not agree with his policies but unlike every other politician out there, the more I see this asshole, the more I like him.

Soviet Sanders really needs to win the nomination and bring on Pocahontas as veep.

Weigel posts this tweet and gets a bunch of shit from Berners in replies about crowd size at Iowa State Fair. A fucking pissing contest over how many people attended each of their speeches. 

Then this morning.

He also refused to acknowledge his declining poll numbers in Iowa.  

Why, this all looks so familiar. 

[Hank Kingsley 20676]

SIROTA! Lulz. Bernie has surrounded himself with a bunch of childish staffers.

Scapegoat the immigrants minorities and poors while we have the taxpayers subsidize the employees of the richest families and corporations in the world. Add a few distractions and they’ll never notice. Better yet some will even willfully fight the war.

Which of the two following groups is more responsible for the election of Donald J Trump:
1) The Democratic Socialists of America
2) Lifelong Republican voters

This bears repeating.

Weigel and Dovere are basically as mature and professional as those who troll them in response. Dovere is the one who attacked David Sirota with an outright lie (saying that Sirota was working for Sanders while Sirota was working for the Guardian, and the Guardian called for a retraction.)

It's a slapfight between blue-checkmark hacks and anonymous Internet-poisoned Bernie bros. No real good looking "side" on this one.

Regarding Nina, go fuck yourself. Talking about having a lot of grassroots enthusiasm is valid and important and comparing a black woman like her to Donald Trump is dismissive, demeaning, belittling bullshit. Fuck you. Go kiss Pete's AR.

Well, that escalated quickly! I never compared Nina to Donald Trump.
