So folks really think Bernie vs Trump is better than Biden vs Trump?

THIS

The average voter was so uninformed they literally thought Biden wanted Universal Healthcare ...

They have no idea what they are voting for. But Obama and the media said “vote Biden”

so they did

That's such a huge problem...we have a lot of low information voters out there who don't do research and they don't vet candidates.

They the same types of people who call us (wrongly) "trump supporters" for wanting to hold Dems accountable.

I've been irked by the "anybody but Trump" mantra too...and the blue wave...but shieet....we are really dealing with a predator class of republican that's opined to destroy America and it's population whether directly or indirectly through negligence or or sheer unprovoked terror.

Bernie had a better chance in 2016...

He would of got completely destroyed in this current political climate...

Rethuglicans best ads against Biden have featured Bernie calling him a progressive...

They clearly wanted to run against Bernie and are attempting to spin Biden into a radical leftist socialist which no one is buying...

Naw all of this stuff with the pandemic, police brutality, economic downturn is more of a reason for the policies Bernie has been advocating for.

Wasn't Bernie polling better against Trump than Biden?

But meh. Milquetoast it is.

See... I can entertain both sides of this argument here.

Bernie would lose 35-40 states.

Some of y'all don't realize this country isn't that far left wing.

so all of these "vote blue no matter who" and "Trump got to go" types would not vote or vote for Trump instead of Bernie?

The thing is, Milquetoast was dead in the water after Nevada. He was expected to win SC, but the subsequent emptying of the field and endorsement of Milquetoast didn't seem... organic I guess? I'm still confused as to how his campaign is deemed successful, the nikka failed upwards until Super Tuesday

Bernie didn't make things easy for himself with the bashing of the establishment at every turn, but I think his profile would have attracted voters otherwise turned off by politics as usual in the general election. Closed primary dynamics tilted things towards Milquetoast, but if Milquetoast was that popular, posters on here would be debating how his first 100 days would look. They would not be shytting themselves at a prospect of Trump winning again by close margins in battleground states.

But this is where we are. Re-elect a moron, or go with Milquetoast.

Bernie couldn't even get the youth and Latinos to vote during the primaries

Fewer people vote during the primaries vs general definitely when it comes to first time voters. Add the covid-19, and issues at some polling stations

Is Biden’s plan a step in the right direction?

Nope. It will be the end of going in the wrong direction. He's status quo, but that's a cup of old water in the desert right now.

They can try to make this election about choice, but there is no choice. We are voting to survive until the next election.

A lot of fence riding republicans would vote for Trump over Bernie.

You see these Never Trump republicans? A lot of them would just close their eyes and vote for Trump.

They HATE overt socialists like Bernie. At least Biden can dress up any government intervention he wants to accomplish.

Some of y'all get confused by your affinity to a plan versus the popularity of the plan.

That was the point of the primaries. Vote Biden.

You had your chance.

Personally, I wanted Warren... but here we are

I would imagine the fence riding Republicans are fewer than the first time youth voters Bernie was reaching out for. Also you have to remember that Hillary lost Obama voters to Trump on the issue of trade and Bernie doesn't have that problem.

Good analogy. This election is about making sure we actually have another election in 2024.

That economic insecurity argument died 4 years ago.

That economic insecurity argument died 4 years ago.

Those same people are still worried about or have already lost their jobs. Bernie is also big on stronger unions which is also important to a lot of those same people
