2020 Democratic Nomination Process Mega-thread

The Afghanistan Peace Deal didn't last long enough for anyone to post about it

[AZGrizFan]

Because usually those people aren't disagreeing with his policies, they're attacking the person...racist, Nazi, misogynist, hates gays, sexist, "he's going to destroy the country", "he wants to be king forever", "the world hates us", "he's Russia's puppet", "anyone who votes for him is retarded", "his deplorable base", yada yada yada.... That is the very definition of TDS. You know, guys like dback, treep, analjelly, jso, etc.

I've said it a million times now, but having TDS is a badge of honor.

Means you don't want the f*cking President to be an immoral, stupid, corrupt, self-centered asshole.

And, like clockwork, here's treep.

All POTUS' are self-centered to a point. It takes a certain kind of arrogance to think you can run a country.

Sure, but there are reasonable/tolerable degrees of it. Trump thinks he's an expert at everything.

The tiny saving grace of his arrogance is the hesitance to get into conflicts, although it can be negative like the Kurdish situation.

That said, you can be arrogant and have a sense of morality. Trump is both arrogant and immoral, on top of having no curiosity and openly treating the office as a financial windfall for himself and his family.

edit: also the constant lying, gas-lighting, and law ignoring.

Sleepy Joe can beat Trump. The negros turn out in droves for Biden. Could bring Ohio and Georgia back in play for the Dems and outright take MI and PA.

The Dems finally got this revelation on Saturday. Bernie is done now.

Nate Silver has it Biden 1,740 delegates to Bernie's 1,362 now and you know Bernie stands no chance in a contested convention.

The Bernie Bros will be pissed for a couple of days and then still vote for Biden. I don't get all the CNN pearl clutching about a contested convention

The real victory here is that Bloomberg will not be the candidate. whew. I get to keep my guns (inside my home).

Beto: "Hell yeah I'm going to take your AR-15."
Biden to Beto at rally last night: "You're going to take care of the gun problem with me".

[93henfan]

Joe will do as much with guns as Obama did: nothing.

Bloomberg has started Every Town, Moms Demand Action, and bought entire State Houses (see Virginia) to promote his gun confiscation and ripping up of the Bill of Rights attempts.

Anyone is better than Bloomberg.

Like they did for Hillary in '16.

Yeah, they'll sit 2020 out and burn a bunch of shit on their way out the DNC door.

Bernie will endorse Biden though, because he is a cuck.

The media is the only one painting this narrative that the DNC is divided. Poll after poll shows that they'll unite around whoever the candidate is, except for Bloomberg 'cause there's not a lot of good data on that yet (I wouldn't vote for him).

That said, it'd be quite a mockery if Sanders wins a plurality of delegates and isn't the nominee. Biden would still get my vote, but no donations or canvassing or whatever.

That didn't happen in '16 when they jooed him out of the nomination then. It won't happen this time around either, if anything the anger will be even greater.

Clinton had a major plurality of the delegates in 2016 heading into the convention.
If Sanders came into the convention with a plurality this time, giving it to Biden would take the jooing to a whole nother level.

[SDHornet]

I love how we think a millionaire socialist with almost 50 years working in politics (roughly 40 years as an elected official, 30 of which are in the US Congress) as not the establishment.

That's his appeal; he's stuck to his principles and been the most consistent.

It's true he won't be able to get some (most?) things he wants passed, but I know where his decision-making will come from, and the things he can control will be geared toward results I can support. It also establishes what he won't support and veto.

And those principles got him 3 houses, one of which is on a lake.

I was referring to bernie bros voting for Biden in Nov.

Regarding the DNC, they changed the rule for this year. Super delegates don't come into play unless a candidate lacks a majority. So a plurality but not majority means the super delegates get to vote in the 2nd round and steal it from Bernie.

You forgot the cushy book deal.

He's a DC politician. Can't hold a real job so he lives off of the public tit and preaches about sharing the wealth while hoarding the money he's earned by cashing in on his notoriety. Trump is no better but let's not pretend that Bernie is some paragon of virtue that we should teach our children to emulate.

Is a lake house something special?

I don't agree with Bernie on everything - he's too conservative for me - but Bernie's "wealth" isn't the type I have anything against.

It's going to be glorious watching the DNC steal the nomination away from him again...

...and even better when Bernie goes full cuck and endorses Biden like he did with hilldog 4 years ago...

...principles my harry asshole.

Did you see the clip of him at the town hall meeting where he was asked why he could have guards armed with the same weapons he wants to ban? His response was basically I'm more important than you. And then he lied about being able to buy guns off the internet.

Trust me. I want Trump over Biden every day and twice on Sunday, but Biden is the best Dem left for gun owners

Joe talks their bullshit to get their vote. Then he gets in office and knows it's a loser agenda and focuses on more important stuff.

Bloomberg is serious about confiscation of property and ripping up the Bill of Rights.

What type of "wealth" is it? I'm not clear on the rules as to acceptable vs. unacceptable wealth. Serious question - I don't know what you mean.

Got it. I should have said Clinton had a majority (of the pledged delegates), not just a plurality, coming into the convention in 2016.

You go, Donna. You jackass.

Yeah...her side is so “Democratic” in its process.

[catbooster]

You go, Donna. You jackass.

Wasn't she the one that gave Hillary the debate questions ahead of time?

Yup.

These are the idiots running the DNC.

Bullshit. You're on record as saying people shouldn't be allowed to own more than one house.

[AZGrizFan]

You go, Donna. You jackass.

She also told all Republicans to "shut up" and "don't tell us about our process"...

[AZGrizFan]

Wasn't she the one that gave Hillary the debate questions ahead of time?

Yup.

These are the idiots running the DNC.

That stupidity extends right up to the field of candidates...
