END TO END BERNERS: The Official Bernie Sanders 2020 Crew thread

I like how the punditry acknowledges that the Republicans have destroyed government institutions and trampled on the US Constitution and this has created a horrifyingly dangerous situation for the nation as a whole... from an imaginary Sanders administration!

in effect, erased the impeachment clause just as an side, this is a bad take, and one I hear from liberals a lot as well. The impeachment clause is vague and subjective. Failing to impeach a president does not "erase the impeachment clause." There is no mandatory impeachment in the Constitution.

it sounds fuckin' lit tbh

otm

lol @ the responses

Jeet Heer's latest is a good companion to the Anand Giridharadas video, framing MSNBC in the Trump era as an "ancien regime resistance" that united centrist liberals and Never Trumpers, and which is now in danger of collapse: https://www.thenation.com/article/politics/msnbc-sanders-freak-out

Won't somebody please think of the airline owners?!

it really is happening

we really do live in a society after all

Bernie has some interesting views on Castro, but what does he think of other famous despots?

frikkin YIKES

that thread is reallllll embarrassing

mike you’re posting cringe bro

Homophobia AND pointless line breaks, what a thread

this is like a single poster joke thread

Okay, I might have to get back on Twitter just to follow that account. It's like watching a livecam of someone vandalizing their asshole CEO's mansion.

not endearing himself to the LGBTQ demo lately

Need a We Are The World track with all the Bernie endorsers

The point of that thread isn't to craft a single joke, it's to make sure people hear from their older relatives that Bernie once praised Idi Amin or whatever.

sorry your grandpa lost his slaves miami cubans but people here need some help

eh that's a dumb tweet

when you have people complaining that their grandfather owned an entire town and now his house is a library it's hard to work up tears

xyz's specialty from what I hear
xp

when you have people who fled who were the class whom Sanders most want to woo and who played by the United States' goddamn rules in Cuba and died or were imprisoned anyway, I'll give you a hankie.

"Cuba" reduces people on every gradation on the spectrum into fools, hence my avoiding it. All I'll say is that it wasn't merely burghers and oligarchs who left.

There's nothing Sanders could do to woo them in meaningful numbers, so it's not like it matters.

idk that’s overly reductive to me.

and also idk i would probably listen to alfred on this topic

As a voting group Florida Cubans are only slightly less Republican than white evangelicals. In a landslide midterm they voted for Ron DeSantis 2:1 and I don't think it's because Andrew Gillum was sending out fliers praising Che.

Ironically, another reason Bernie is probably going to lose Florida is old retired Jews. But, as I previously noted, Hillary also lost Florida and I don't think there's a candidate who could win it but not do worse everywhere else.

Florida has voted for a non-incumbent Democrat once in the last 40 years, it should maybe not be a linchpin regardless.

Calm down Texas is purple now or something

President Obama: “I said this to President Castro...you've made great progress in educating young people....Medical care, the life expectancy of Cubans is equivalent to the United States...That's a huge achievement. They should be congratulated."pic.twitter.com/3HTJw2Ek08 https://t.co/XWTneqIFHd

dear Booty, if you were a POTUS who didn't suck up to dictators, youd be the first in 120 years

I hope to write a post about South Florida and its ethnic paradoxes soon.

From their tweets to God's ears

The private Twitter account of a newly promoted campaign staffer indicates that despite his condemnation of online harassment, some of Bernie Sanders’ most toxic support is coming from inside the house.

i don't want to get all south park but every person involved in this scott bixby thing on both sides are acting incredibly annoying. dumbest day on twitter in a long time

I for one appreciate the courageous journalism required to publish private social media content

these people with locked accounts...damn!!! you just know theyre hiding all the good posts in there

This is the first I'm hearing about this staffer but uh...this is pretty much a non-story, yeah? Dude was exposed, dude was fired. If anyone is still saying anything beyond congratulating the Sanders campaign for not dithering and equivocating, then idgi.

so the staffer had a locked account? and the Daily Beast dude found a way in? You know, I wonder if anyone's thought of getting into the campaign's private emails so we could know what kind of shit was being talked? It would be very illuminating.

it absolutely will come up at the debate tonight

This and Fidel Castro.

can Bernie say "let's go to the videotape" and show the clip of Obama praising Cuban literacy and life expectancy?

Let's dispel once and for all with this fiction that Barack Obama doesn't know what he's doing

I believe you mean 'dispel with' (takes almost imperceptibly-quick water swig).

tonight's gonna be a nightmare

switching my vote to whoever asks bloomberg why he has infinite money and can't afford basic security for his campaign offices

maybe I should be worried about this but I'm really not
