Establishment dems (and the liberal media, of course) will fight his nomination with everything they have. The elite democrats will do whatever it takes to hold power in the party, even if it means not nominating the person best positioned to go against Trump. But yes, he is their only shot at winning 2020. Trump would steamroll Biden, Warren and everyone else. He is the only option and I've been saying this on here forever now.

Trump should have been impeached much earlier due to his actions regarding children at the border, his incessant prejudice against large sections of the country, the close links held between his presidency and his financial interests, his support for military intervention in various parts of the world etc. But no, Pelosi and Schumer decide to impeach on a trivial diplomatic scandal involving their favoured potential nominee. Complete ineffectual phonies. Both your political parties are rotten to the core and Bernie is the one shining light on the side of everyday people and their actual concerns.

I just wish this pointless bit of political theatre was over so Biden can stop hogging up all the space in Iowa.

“If a president does something which he believes will help him get elected in the public interest, that cannot be the kind of quid pro quo that results in impeachment,” said @AlanDersh. Of course! It’s the old Louis XIV “l'état, c'est moi” defense.

Interesting then how he always comes out on top in match ups against Trump.

Biden will not beat Trump.
Warren will not beat Trump.
Pete will not beat Trump.

If you genuinely think they could win an election against Trump then you're delusional. Realistically, it will be Bernie or Biden. Biden has years of baggage for Trump to pounce on and clearly has zero political acumen anymore considering how shoddy his campaigning is. Bernie is the one and the polls are showing that now.

You can find the recordings yourself cuz it's everywhere on twitter but here's what he said in one of them:

“I think Bernie as vice president would have been tougher,” Trump said, referring to Hillary Clinton’s 2016 selection of Sen. Tim Kaine to be her running mate. “He was the only one I didn’t want her to pick.”
“You know, I got 20 percent of [the] Bernie vote, people don’t realize that, because of trade, because he’s a big trade guy. He basically says we’re getting screwed on trade, and he’s right. I’m worse than he is, but we can do something about it. I don’t know if he could have,” he said, presumably meaning that he is worse for free trade supporters than Sanders would be. “But had she picked Bernie Sanders, it would have been tougher,” Trump continued. “Now, then you say — people say no, it would have been easier because then her sort of establishment, normal Democrats would have come to me, so she may have lost a lot of votes too.”

Went along and did the ISideWith and WaPo candidate quizzes. Unsurprisingly, I'm largely a Sanders fangirl - which puts me fairly close to Warren as well. Therefore, c'mon Sanders/Warren ticket.

I'm also apparently close to Yang (via the Washington Post one), but it turns out the stuff we disagree on is fairly important to me. Plus I get a feeling that he might sell out at some point fairly soon after. (That, and the Yang Gang are annoying.)

i feel uncomfortable talking about democratic candidates in the dotard’s thread

he’s always making everything about himself, and we’re playing right into his tiny, weak-ass, pussy-grabbing, nature-hating, racist hands

Start a "Is Bernie really a serious contender for the Democratic nomination" thread ;)
