General Democratic 2020 Election Watch
- Thread starter Splinty
- Start date
The Bern is gonna make Biden look stupid in the final debate since it will be 1 vs 1 but he'll lose the nomination to Biden anyway. After Mike Pence finds the cure for corona and the market recovers, Trump will gallop to victory while riding a white horse, one hand holding an American flag and the other wrapped tightly around a side-saddled Melania who will be wearing a silky see-through blouse, hints of her curves silhouetted by the sun setting over the Rocky Fucking Mountains.

Email sent to Bernie's donors:
Let me start by saying that last night was not a good night for our campaign from a delegate point of view.
We lost the largest state of the night, Michigan, but we won in North Dakota and currently lead in the state of Washington, the second largest state of the evening.
But what has become more and more apparent, with each passing primary, is that while we are currently trailing in the delegate count, we are strongly winning the debate about the future of our country.
In poll after poll after poll, including exit polls, a strong majority of the American people support our progressive agenda.
The American people are deeply concerned about the grotesque levels of income and wealth inequality in this country.
The American people believe it is time for the wealthy and profitable corporations to be paying their fair share.
The American people understand that the federal minimum wage is a starvation wage and that it is time to raise it to a living wage of $15 an hour – nothing less.
The American people understand that if our kids are going to make it into the middle class, we must make public colleges, universities and trade schools tuition free.
The American people understand that we cannot continue a cruel and dysfunctional health care system where we are spending twice as much per capita as any other nation, yet 87 million of our neighbors remain uninsured and underinsured.
And that last point is becoming more and more obvious to the American people as we face the challenge of the coronavirus. Imagine a pandemic where 87 million people have a difficult time going to a doctor.
The American people understand that climate change is an existential threat to our planet and we need to transform our energy system away from fossil fuels.
The American people understand that we need to transform our broken and racist criminal justice and immigration system that locks up four times as many people as communist China and leaves millions here at home living in fear.
But it is not just the ideological debate we are winning.
We are winning the generational debate as well.
While Joe Biden does well with older Americans, especially those over 65 years old, our campaign continues to win a vast majority of younger people in this country.
But while we are winning — very clearly — the ideological debate, we are losing, right now, the electability debate.
I cannot tell you how many people I and our campaign have spoken to that tell me that they like what our campaign stands for but they are going to vote for Joe Biden because they believe he is the best candidate to beat Trump.
Needless to say, I strongly disagree.
So, on Sunday, I very much look forward to debating Joe Biden about these issues in Arizona. This will be the first 1-on-1 debate of this campaign, and I am eager for the American people to see which candidate — which agenda — is best positioned to defeat Donald Trump, the most dangerous president in modern American history.

As I thought, Bernie is banking on a strong debate performance on Sunday to turn things around.
We can only hope...

Mnuchin might stand a chance (he's got that wife and money power )
Otherwise I'm pretty sure we are looking at President Chad Wolf (BADASS!) if this thing gets wild

Holy shit I just had an epiphany...
The older Biden crowd is gonna stay home this Tuesday and for the foreseeable future. Too scared of corona virus and too computer illiterate to know how to request a mail ballot.
The younger Bernie crowd continues mailing in their ballots like I did. They are also less reticent about going to vote on their state's primary day.
The comeback of the century is upon us.
@Splinty, your grandfather is toast!

The prosecutor secured an eight year prison sentence, the judge over turned that.
You do understand a prosecutor has no control over the sentencing handed down by a judge right?

You and your misinformation again. You have some big time tds
" prosecutors offered an appropriate plea bargain that spared him prison while convicting him of a felony sex crime, Attorney General Beau Biden said Thursday."
"This was not a strong case, and a loss at trial was a distinct possibility," Biden wrote in a letter submitted to The News Journal."
More info in the article below proving yet again that you are a terrible poster and the cnn/msnbc of this forum
