When Trump wins re-election, all democrats should blame Pelosi first and foremost. She's been embarrassing to watch from afar.

No. She's a heroine and a patriot.
If she was on heroin I could understand the behaviour. Unfortunately, she is not.

In the wake of the delayed reporting in Iowa, I know there are questions about Shadow and ACRONYM and how we are structured and work to fuel digital innovation and build capacity for progressive causes across the United States. A core tenet for us is that progress requires taking calculated risks and doing things differently. At ACRONYM and its affiliates, this is what we do, this is who we are, and yes, it means that sometimes we, and the companies we invest in, will make mistakes.

any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, or actual events is purely coincidental.

Quote
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi apparently made tiny tears into her copy of President Trump’s State of the Union address — so that her speech-ripping moment could go off without a hitch.
Quote
Pelosi could be seen grabbing the pages off the table.

Video shows her making what seemed to be a tearing motion and then placing the pages back on the table.

Photos of the sheets of paper show them face down on the table with small slits on the side, near where Pelosi would eventually rip them into pieces.
RETIRE BIT- uh, Madam Speaker

Smart woman.
For more hilarity:
https://nypost.com/2020/02/06/nancy-pelosis-state-of-the-union-stunt-may-have-broken-the-law-rep-matt-gaetz-says/
Quote
Gaetz, in his letter, said Pelosi’s “unseemly behaviour certainly warrants censure.”
This from Matt "DUI" Gaetz, who during the House impeachment debate didn't think any of Trump's very real offenses were unseemly or warranted any kind of censure, and who is obviously fine with Trump's plethora of lies during the State of the Union speech.

As can be seen by the reaction by the party of traitors, Pelosi did well.

Those sons of bitches stopped with ~50 precincts left, and Bernie 3.427‬ delegates away.

I think they said they had ALL the data on hand except for one precint that was on route, too.

My complaint is that the NYT has buried the delegate tie and Bernie's popular vote lead.  Not only are they not emphasizing that information, they're practically hiding it.

In retrospect, Warren did pretty well.

Warren – 32,788 – 20.4%
Biden – 22,073 – 13.7%
Klobuchar – 19,429 – 12.1%

She destroyed the two moderate darlings.

What does "no one" mean in that context?  The page doesn't explain it.

Is there some rule where if someone isn't a clear enough winner there is no winner and some other picking process occurs?
IIRC it would be the contested convention option.

At that point, if there is a second ballot, super delegates get to vote?
