Your next 2020 Democratic presidential primary thread: Now we're serious

klobuchar will surely drop out after super tuesday too, she's only staying in because she has a good chance of winning minnesota which otherwise sanders would probably run away with.

who fucking knows at this point what warren will do though

can we just human centipede our favorite three candidates together

no

biden is now the youngest remaining man ffs

that was at least one thing Buttigieg had going for him. he's younger than me.

would like to see the Presidency get progressively less geriatric

warren really going after bernie in some video clip I just watched. surprised.

xp i'm still cool with an old person tbh

Brownface vs stealing anti-apartheid valor

really exhausted with all the galaxy-brain takes on twitter, eg 'every vote not for bernie is a vote for biden!', 'bernie didn't go to selma, he's such a racist!'

every once in a while this one dude pops up, in response to whatever the latest news is, demanding that bernie drop out and become warren's vp, and how deeply misogynistic he is for not doing so

i'm not following these people, i just need to mute better

feel like you could play Bingo with the amount of bizarre takes on Twitter for just about every topic, but especially political races.

i found one dude who kept saying during the super bowl that both teams on the field were "infected", but idk with what

I did see one that basically said Trump has already won since Buttigieg dropped out. very weird take considering I think Buttigieg isn't battle tested for the brain worms coming at him that those debates would entail

wtf I can't post in the right thread anymore I think I'm coming down w something

538 just updated their odds. 64% chance of brokered convention (up from previous 59%). Bernie at 23% odds of having a majority of delegates by convention, Biden at just 12%, everybody else below 1%.

others dropping out of course could change that drastically.

i'm not doing forecast shit, i'm just glad I won't be seeing this dweeb's mug much for awhile

Buttigieg is the oldest young person ever

Her base, in particular, is kind of irrelevant - upper middle class liberals and liberals with graduate degrees are going to vote the Democrat regardless.

As one of those people, let me just concede that the above is completely true and there is no strategic justification whatsoever for Democrats to take my preferences into account when choosing a nominee. You put a D after it, I'll vote for it. I have no credible threat of exit.

me too

Sanders has split the PE vote

Public Enemy Fires Flavor Flav After Bernie Sanders Rally Spat

jesus I was just reading about how he sent a cease and desist to Bernie's campaign

my friend is at that rally and says it's pretty dope. he's a mega hip hop head and Bernie stan so not shocked

everyone making predictions about how the race will go seems to have forgotten about the existence of bloomberg

the same Bloomberg who's been mentioned many times in the last 24 hours itt and by Nate Silver himself?

p sure nobody could forget about him if we tried

He took out 2 full page ads in the A section of my Sunday paper. Not surprising but Christ he is unavoidable. I have yet to receive a single mailer but for the 3 - plus a letter - I received from him.

It might be time to strengthen my recommendation from “don’t listen to a politician speak” to include “don’t read their tweets” and maybe “don’t read what they said”

All of those things being foolish and misleading

yeah agree, these people are performing for us

fool deblast-you-oh

friends i am getting sad that joe biden could become the nominee, thats bad, im sad bc of the badness

I'm prepared to get ladsed this week and I will deserve it

wait until after Tuesday before you invest heavily in sadness about Biden's ascendency

im feeling sad about other things too i just have so much sadness

i did my part and i voted for the bern on the early voting and now i want my socialist grandpa to be president, i do not want the grandpa with veneers to be president

i just have so much sadness

now, that's very understandable. this year is shaping up to be a sad one. my best hope is spending time outdoors as much as possible. I find nature helps my sadness.

i wonder how many politicians actually write many of their own tweets?

At least one, at least this one time

jesus I was just reading about how he sent a cease and desist to Bernie's campaign

this bit seems entirely fair tbh

Any Klobuchar’s rally at my old high school cancelled because of BLM protesters.

The fanfic and political cosplay by Biden and Warren supporters again shows how many Americans prefer fantasy to reality. The larger culture encourages illusion, but countless people are eager to play their subservient role. Reality angers them, and not in a productive way.

Flavor Flav has always struck me as a total moron
