Black people can sniff most bullshitters a mile away. Seen too many to have time for that.

No offense.. but.. the whole grifter evangelical pastor thing kinda throws a wrench at this idea.

We are talking politics, not church!

The fact that the Democrats have a woman among the front runners who lied about being Native American, accepted a scholarship for a marginalized group and called herself a woman of color tells you everything you need about this field of candidates.
Oh yeah, and she was a Reaganite Republican well into her adult life.

Hard to argue with this. While one party is obviously comically evil, the other is controlled by big business, too.
If they really wanted to stop Trump, why'd they help pass his budget without any real concessions?

First and foremost, America is a plutocracy and has been for a long time. Anything else is just layers on top of that.

[VomKriege]

Seder was pretty savage on that Dore segment (on brand, for sure) and I would tend to agree with him. As bad as the Dems are there's still at the very least some differences at play. And Sanders is ostensibly running as a Dem, it's a bit obtuse to pretend there's no priority between the two.

By the by, Trump has nearly doubled the US deficit by now, from $587 billion to more than a trillion, soon. (The party of fiscal responsibility)
It's quite amazing* how he was unable to achieve more economic growth despite spending that much money.

*Well, not really,
A) we are talking about the guy who managed to bankrupt a casino here and
B) he put the money into the pockets of billionaires and it didn't actually trickle down

Why is nobody talking about this?

To be fair, Trump will destroy any of these politicians.
For Mayo Pete It'll be 'did your dick stink last night' for Warren 'does your husband still love you' for Bernie 'will you execute people in Central park' for Biden 'where's Hunter with the stripper baby do you support abortion Joe?' for Mike 'do you think your wife is looking for bigger dicks little Mike?'.

He will go for the absolute worst lines of attack. When I look at the Democratic debates vs. the clusterfuck GOP 2016 primary these people are all ill prepared for what's going to hit them and the personal insults and drama Trump will throw at them.

I can't wait until bernie tells trump to fuck off on live tv after trump k words him.

because nobody actually cares about the deficit

I honestly think Bernie is the only one of the Democrat field who can exchange blows with Trump.
But still, even Bernie gets 'time' from the DNC moderators and his competitors to make his points.

Jeb! in 2016 couldn't even finish a word before Trump would interrupt and nuke him. In every debate he had like 80%/90% speaking time interrupting people.
And when people interrupted him he went "Excuse me!" or did those weird facial expressions.

Great, dumbass pete is going to get dumbass people who worry about federal deficits because he's a mayor and blah blah blah americas credit card.

fucking idiots.

[Nintex]

"Modern monetary policy"

Look it up. As long as the deficit delivers a profit in the long run (jobs/interest whatever) the deficits don't matter.
The deficits never mattered. Japan has been running on a 200% deficit for years.

His attack on Republicans is so fucking weak.  He's more concerned about making Pete Buttigieg sound reasonable than having a spirited defense of what's right.  Fuck this guy

[Nintex]

I think it would take Trump about 5 minutes of "debate" to turn Pete into a blubbering mess or regret and pain.

Federal deficits are a really complex issue. The best course and way around is pretty heavy stuff.
Naturally people aren't going to be all that sure of it, and shitty analogies are afloat. Like the managing your household expenses and credit card comparisons to the federal deficit when conservative voters try to make it an issue. "When you can't make you payments you need to cut spending so that's why Ju$tin needs to be voted out".

Unless you can't pay off the interest and you pissed off America, then you're screwed AF.

Some European governments can refinance at 'negative' interest rates. Which means they get paid for spending more.

As Republican/Democrats you can't really sign off on a 700+ billion military budget and then say you need to 'cut spending' a day later.
I believe those Goldman Sachs fuckers when they say we've nearly achieved a 'recession proof' economy.
The US and to a lesser extend Europe and China pretty much control all the levers of the economy.

For example the ECB is printing money far beyond what Weimar Germany dreamed off and it doesn't make dent in inflation.

Watching one of the ads dunking on Pete. Bernie days 6 million contributions at 18 bucks. That's 110 million , from just individuals?

Pretty crazy how Bloomberg spending his chump change gets maddow to breakout the extra tall monitors, but not the Bernie donations.

Fuck unity. You can't unite with toxic sludge.

Unity with the Bernie Bros is simply impossible, and don't let anyone try to convince you otherwise. These cultists are thoughtless, brainwashed monsters, pure and simple.

Look at the video embedded above: The purpose of this production is to create paranoia and to direct hated at the Democratic party. In an election year. One viewing of this video and you'll know why my attitude has hardened.

What can one say about a Bernie spokesperson who is so odious, so obnoxious, so disgusting, so vile, so unendurable? Tellingly, anti-Bernie Democrats (like this fellow) have retweeted her video and let her speak for hertself. I honestly believe that this bosomy swine-ette is trying to make people hate Bernie Sanders. Division is her raison d'etre.

I can't prove that Rania is paid by the Kremlin. But I'd be lying if I pretended not have my suspicions.

Remember 2016? Bernie was represented by H.A. Goodman and Cassandra Fairbanks, two lawn-vipers pretending to be liberals. Both now support Trump; you've probably seen the picture of Cassandra with Roger Stone, who was, in all likelihood, her mentor. Roger always specialized in ratfucking the Dems via infiltration and promoting "more left than thou" candidates.

Rania Khalek is the new Cassandra. You'll be particularly infuriated by her claim that Democrats should simply suck it up when insulted and belittled. At the same time, the Bernie Bros -- or Bernie Hos, as in the case of Rania and Cassandra -- act outraged whenever anyone says one unkind word about them.

Do they really expect us to accept this outrageous double standard? I sure as hell won't. They remind me of a classic Matt Groening cartoon from the '80s, in which he depicted the nine types of bosses. The final image depicted the worst of the lot. I think of this image whenever I think of the Bernie cult.

The Bernie Bros actually expect everyone else to accept -- meeekly, humbly, obsequiously -- abuse and humiliation. Anyone who has any understanding of human psychology knows that this will never happen. Most people are not masochists.

Thus, we may safely conclude that the Bernie cultists who insist on this "We can do what you may not" attitude are secretly working for Putin or the Alt Right or Team Trump. The goal is to divide and demoralize the Dems.

Actually, they are not "trying." They've done it.

At this point, there is nothing for it. The wound is too deep. We must declare war on Bernie Sanders and his ghastly cult.

The vast majority of Bernie Bros are beyond redemption. They are a cancer and they must be eradicated mercilessly. People like Rania and Cassandra have made Bernie Sanders absolutely unacceptable. Until Bernie publicly chastises the cultists who speak in his name -- which he won't -- we must presume that he agrees with them. In essence, he is Putin's toady.

NO MORE POLITICAL CULTS!
