lmao pretty much this entire primary summed up.
That's a man who's worked a full day and can't be bothered to give any kind of a shit.
Are you trolling?Biden has said terrible things and taken bad stances but he apologizes and people like that.
That has always been the bernie way and we saw it in 2016 and we'll see it again this year. Cult of personalities do this to people. Internalize all attacks against daddy and become the victim needing to go on full assault.Watching all the people who assured us Bernie was a paragon of liberal values jump straight to BURN THE WITCH sure is....something.
Watching all the people who assured us Bernie was a paragon of liberal values jump straight to BURN THE WITCH sure is....something. This is why I will never support Bernie. This story is probably not a huge deal, but what happens when President Sanders has a slight D Senate and can't pass M4A? Are we gonna pivot to something still positive that more people support, or are we going to start blaming other Democrats and CNN for sabotaging Bernie? Because it feels the narrative around Bernie from his supporters is always about how he is the most progressive politician ever, has never done anything wrong, has always held all the correct positions, will alone save us, and to suggest otherwise is either a media conspiracy or arguing in bad faith. This is very troubling to me when I start to think about what would happen if a Bernie presidency stopped being a hypothetical and his supporters had to deal with his agenda - predictably - not being easy to pass.
People love to post "why would anyone even support Biden lolol" but honestly this shit is exactly why. Biden has said terrible things and taken bad stances but he apologizes and people like that. No one is going to be persuaded by the narrative that Bernie Sanders has never done or said anything bad and that anyone accusing him of such is part of a coordinated campaign to take him down. It's ridiculous. All Bernie had to do was say he meant he was anxious about sexism in America, that Warren would make a fine president, and apologize if his remarks were insensitive. But of course Bernie can't do that.
Or throw.....
She could kamikaze someone. Bernie should probably be legit scared of her. She knows she won't win and might want a scalp.
a lot of trolling is permitted in this thread but we should draw the line at saying nice things about joe biden
He looks good for his age and wears nice suits, admit it!a lot of trolling is permitted in this thread but we should draw the line at saying nice things about joe biden
Young Joe Biden is a handsome ass motherfucker. Can't draw the line at that.

idk you seem like a pretty patient guy compared to some others who strongly dislike BernieSo, if you think my dislike of Bernie is strong, let me tell you, my mom's is about......30 times worse. There are folks in this thread who will independently confirm that.
Yesterday, we were talking about the election and she grudgingly admitted if Bernie gets the nomination she'll vote for him but she still hates his damn guts. I was hoping she'd be too busy with the new grandbaby to hear about this, but NOPE. She heard. And she's been screaming in my ear. She makes me seem well balanced and fair and widely respected on both sides.
Like... this is the same guy that tried to get Warren to run in his place in 2016. If he disagreed at all then it was most likely within the context of 2020 against Trump and his sexist mob.
If Bernie comes out and apologizes tomorrow during the debates, I think he can mitigate the damage somewhat. If he denies it again onstage...
Well. Shit's gonna get real.
Pot meet kettle (I'm not Warren supporter)The Warren slant in this thread is always unreal.
What are you all going to do when she endorses Sanders?
Disappear? Swallow your pride? What?
You all seem too stubborn to ever change your minds about anything.

Generalizations and hostility aside, people here will vote for the nominee, even if it is Sanders, and many Warren to Sanders supporters will probably even then campaign for him.The Warren slant in this thread is always unreal.

Going to disagree with this. This reeks of politics, and I'm just not buying it.It's pretty clear what happened. Bernie coming out and stating categorically that this did not happen forced Warren to state that yes it did. Because it did.

And if it's neither Bernie or Warren?As will I. I'd gladly vote for Liz. This "will never vote for Sanders" shit is ridiculous.
Ya'll coming in this thread and stir this shit up is gonna get your asses banned. You folks cant seem to grasp political analytics from people that have been in this community for years that understand nationwide elections and the realities of the senate and EC. People in this thread talking about how Biden might be the best way forward or Warren for that matter, arent exactly in some cult worshiping them. They are looking at polls and elections in red states and purple states, and because those thoughts get verbalized and talked about regularly, it immediately seems to be taken as OT true progressives VS this thread., which is horseshit. Like i unironically see this every day from people. And im not just talking about todays events over these stupid squabbles. This has been a year long thing.The Warren slant in this thread is always unreal.

What is the misunderstanding supposed to be?I'm going to boil this all down to a misunderstanding on what was meant during a private conversation. A sentiment that was believed but not felt.
And seeing the different parties that get excited about this is a real "mask off" kind of moment.
Bernie and Liz are a mile ahead of all other candidates, so this is all water under the bridge ultimately. One of the two of them will be our next president, I believe that.
Also for what it is worth, this thread/community had a straw poll and it was evenly split between Warren and Sanders. So it helps not to be hostile and make genreralizations when they aren't even accurate (and even if they were, hostility doesn't help)As will I. I'd gladly vote for Liz. This "will never vote for Sanders" shit is ridiculous.

I know there has to be people in this thread that wouldn't vote for Tulsi
Polling won't look good if he denies it. It will come up during the debate, and him denying it means he's calling Warren a liar to her face. Which she, and others onstage won't take lying down. Plus multiple different news outlets are reporting on it saying that it happened, so who's side do you think they'll take in the aftermath? (To say otherwise would mean that their reporters are wrong)I would like to see polling two weeks from today. People might not care, or things might go in a different way. I think several cases can be made that this hurt Bernie, Warren or both of them.
