2020 Democratic Primary Thread: Focus on House & Senate races

[Secure Da Bag]

I can't. I could see if he lost fair and square and they are like " I'm not voting". Then I'd be with all of them. But the DNC keeps making the same mistake and those people keep getting screwed. So I can't blame them for feeling that way.

I'm voting for Bernie in the primaries and will vote for whoever the nominee is but they acting like the entire party leadership and consultant class isn't completely hostile to him and his base lmao

“There’s a growing realization that Sanders could end up winning this thing, or certainly that he stays in so long that he damages the actual winner,” said David Brock, the liberal organizer, who said he has had discussions with other operatives about an anti-Sanders campaign and believes it should commence “sooner rather than later.”

The matter of What To Do About Bernie and the larger imperative of party unity has, for example, hovered over a series of previously undisclosed Democratic dinners in New York and Washington organized by the longtime party financier Bernard Schwartz. The gatherings have included scores from the moderate or center-left wing of the party, including Speaker Nancy Pelosi of California; Senator Chuck Schumer of New York, the minority leader; former Gov. Terry McAuliffe of Virginia; Mayor Pete Buttigieg of South Bend, Ind., himself a presidential candidate; and the president of the Center for American Progress, Neera Tanden.

Warren is the candidate of white, coastal latte liberals. She has little appeal outside of that group. If she's the nominee its four more years of Trump.

Bernie Bros furious today

Trying to drag Warren down because Bernie’s campaign was stillborn



It won’t work

 

[JMurder]

I like Bernie. I liked him last time and voted for him in the general election. Yeah you read right.

I'm voting for Elizabeth Warren in the primaries.

One of the best things about Bernie's campaign and message is that it's not all about him, it's about eschewing a cult of personality and attempting to build a broader coalition and movement. Yet by alleging that supporting anyone else, especially someone with as unimpeachable progressive credentials as Elizabeth Warren, is an unacceptable betrayal, really starts to sour the pot and does Bernie and his campaign a great disservice. I've said many times before that the centrist/establishment critiques of Bernie in 2016 were mostly bullshyt smears, but goddamnit if an increasingly significant number of his supporters aren't making me reconsider. If supporting Elizabeth Warren automatically makes the fukkin Working Families Party an establishment shill trojan horse, then I have very little faith in the coalition Bernie is building.

Waking up every day and seeing another reason why Elizabeth is better than their lord and savior Bernie has to be life altering. No wonder why they are lashing out wildly (hogan) and passive aggressively (fah).

Nah FAH is a real one. He's an example of how you support Bernie without falling down a rat hole of conspiracy theories.

60% of that is he is aggressive towards a party he openly hates

Y'all act like there's large numbers of Bernard Brothers in here on a regular basis when there's like 2, maybe 3.

The Brotherhood of Bernard ain't spending a lot of time on The Coli.

Blessed Bernie, Bro Be His Name, will be the nominee and all of you are going to vote blue, no matter who, correct?

No more PUMA stuff, friends.

I feel like you were referring to the Republican Party but am still not sure if you're talking about the Democratic Party

There's one personality that poisons the discourse constantly and he's not allowed to be banned for reasons the site's owner won't tell us.

And he's pushing Warren, which should tell everybody not to trust her.

I have him on ignore. I’m not talking about him. I’m talking about everyone else. And I don’t know how this showed up in my notifications when I put the thread on ignore.
