It’s Time We All Get Behind Bernie

So three more months and three general election debates to explain what he’s gonna do?

Y’all are just like the Democrats in ‘16 who were all about Trump thinking he couldn’t win

A Bernie vs Trump general election would be a large frick you to the establishment class, as both are relative outsiders attempting to shake up the system in different ways. But for some reason, if such a scenario were to happen, I still think the media and the elite they protect wouldn't be able to read the tea leaves and see how sick pretty much everyone in the country is of the status quo. Maybe they would, but the last minute scrambling the Dems are doing in Iowa to prevent a Sanders victory is insane to me, as it isn't like Sanders hasn't been campaigning for the last 4 years. Are they that stupid that they couldn't see what he was doing?

If America elects a socialist president the country is already lost.

Just get marshmallows.

You sadistic bastard

Yea, I’d really prefer Biden. A, his mind likely doesn’t hold up through the election anyway. But even if it does, B, his family is corrupt as shite and I think trump already has the evidence of it. He just doesn’t want to waste it on the impeachment stuff if he doesn’t have to. Would rather Biden get the nomination first, then shine the light on the corruption after when there is no going back for the dems.

You're thinking too short term

If Bernie wins the nomination it just gives socialists a win

The more we allow the inclusion of socialists in the main stream the more likely that we actually a get a Sanders type as president one day

I know precisely what he is going to do.

What we have to do here in this election is to end the agenda of people like Romney, McCain, Bush, Collins, Murkowski, Clinton, Pelosi, Schumer, Rahm Emmanuel, etc. Notice that these people are both Republicans and Democrats. Unless we do that, we are never going to be able to have nice things.

I would much prefer to do this with a constitutional, conservative, nationalist candidate like President Trump. But if the GOP swamp works with the Dem swamp to remove him from office, we need a plan B.

Also, a Trump V. Sanders election would provide absolute clarity of vision as far as where you want the country to go.

Eugene V Dems ran as a socialist as a national candidate in multiple elections. Doesn’t seem to have helped them much unless you are conceding certain subsequent presidents as socialists.

The difference is now the political left has a lot of control in media and in social media outlets

Just because something happened once it doesn't mean the outcome will be the same if it happens again

And Sanders would certainly get a much larger vote share than Debs ever did

Bernie would be polarizing as hell.

He would probably do extremely well in urban areas but get his arse kicked outside of them.


What I think is a bigger concern for the Dems is that Bernie potentially breaks their fractious caucus into several pieces

The youth vote and the hard left would clearly go Bernie. Feminists, blacks, blue collar whites, etc? Not necessarily.


The Dems are precariously balanced so they can win if they get their turnout in certain groups. But Bernie won’t his those thresholds.

With black voters in particular, Bernie has a horrible track record of getting their vote while Trump is trending upward.

If Trump gets a sizable percentage of the black vote, the Dems may be screwed long term without a realignment because their strategy is based on getting about 80% or more of the black vote plus high turnout.

If those black voters bolt and vote Republican, they may never return to the Dems. And that should scare them.
