US Politics Thread |OT| SAD TRUMP

[nachobro]

I just got off of work. Do I still care about politics, or do I return to being jaded about it?

ask again in a few hours

[Cauliflower Of Love]

All the youth are in cali, and the ones that stayed behind are huffing paint.

for real, on caucus day I was asking a bunch of people I know if they voted and so many were like "not yet, but I think I'll vote for Bernie" and that shit had ended at 2pm

That's like that union dude that was "wait, we're just voting on healthcare......no comment"

You can tell Shosta is a young college student and he's saying this shit to 30 years olds that used to believe the same shit he does and now on the cusp of becoming non voters.

Imagine this since you were a teen. I will see you in ten years still pleading for moderates and I'll laugh because I will be out of America and will have hopefully, if God willing, have renounced my citizenship by then. It's amazing you think you can convince someone who wants to leave America, that grew up as a teenager watching 9/11, then Iraq, then the financial crisis and all of this shit and still have to settle considering our entire political history is a settle.

never trusted that lil cool young dude slut piece of shit

The democratic coalition isn't going to recover from this primary or election

This fall

I feel like Cindi, shosta and I would be the three friends you have at the beginning of an SMT game where you end up having to fight and kill two of them by the end of the game.

Do you get an achievement for killing all 3 tho

Unfortunately no.

The parallels between the Dems and the SPD(or other Yuropean SocDem parties) are astonishing.

That's a rout, brehs

Bernie taking Texas and [likely] California will probably be enough to put him even with Biden, if not a little ahead, once all the counting from Super Tuesday is finished.

Warren must be wondering why she's doing all this? She hasn't won a state yet!

What are Mass results?

Warren in third place.

[Mr Gilhaney]

Cindi you should get Filipino nationality

bro when and why did you even live there? I always forget to ask

6 months internship as part of my education and because Tomas Osmena is my nibba. Went there and stayed with 6 other DanesI never met before and ended up going back with two of them as soon as we graduated for 2 months. So yeah, we kind of loved it. Just something about being asked if you want to buy viagra by the same guy, every day for half a year, on your way to work.

I actually really need Bernie to win this because I'm not going to be able to take 8 months of Cindi gloating about not voting. I just don't have the blood cell count in me to do that.

Cause it's equally bizarre and great to live there. If you have any skill that translates to a job you can do remotely, it's heaven.

They're just as complicit and just as evil.

Not that it matters because texas is blood red but all your moral self-aggrandizement can't change this reality: you have a vote and you can choose between the regular brutality of capitalism but with twice the pell grants and respect for minorities, or you can choose jackboot fascism, the deportation machine, the slow rot of every institution, pure cuckoldry to the corporate megalith, a blank check to Israel, latin american soft-coups, and the willful ignorance of our coming climate change extinction.

All of your actions are a choice. Saying you won't compromise is just masturbation and you might as well be putting the kids in cages yourself. There's no difference between a Republican who sees this stuff and says "I don't care, I want tax cuts" and you who sees this stuff and says "I don't care, I won't vote for Joe". It's the same egotistical narcissism you think the average American has but you don't.

Making choices between a few suboptimal scenarios is a basic aspect of maturity.

[CatsCatsCats]

I honestly don’t know if mandatory voting would be better or worse for muricah lol

[nachobro]

my plan is to bitch and moan and say i won't vote until early voting starts and then just vote anyway

[Mr Gilhaney]

Kara would vote for Ole at the wheel

[CatsCatsCats]

I am firm in my belief that if Bernie can’t beat Biden it’s because people are stupid, change my mind

[Flannel Boy]

Good job in Oklahoma, Warren! 

[Coffee Dog]

I am firm in my belief that if Bernie can’t beat Biden it’s because people are stupid, change my mind

Everyone supports Bernie's policies, so yes. Most people want healthcare and college. People just dont vote for the man

[Cauliflower Of Love]

Maddow is so dishonest. Regarding Sanders not taking bloombergs money. "So what happens then? What does bloomberg do with all his money!?!?!"  As if he can't work independent of a candidate.

Fucking asshole

It's just the result of years of war against the white male

[thisismyusername]

If bernie can't beat biden, who everyone says is a doddering moron, maybe the Popular Front just isn't that popular.

I would still consider the progress made in the discourse a solid step in the beginnings of a movement  that should look beyond bernie.

I feel it's more the olds (and I'll throw black olds into this as well given Biden's support numbers there) that can't understand WHY younger folks would want a health policy and other shit in line with Europe. Unforunately for us, the olds aren't dying fucking fast enough (#JoeDieTonightPlz *In Minecraft, FBI*) to let the younger voters (30's) actually get a significant say in the policies that will dictate the rest of their lives.

Both Democrats and Republicans murder vulnerable groups. Crime bill was pushed by Democrats and particularly black American "leadership".

That's a bad sell.

Also my reasoning isn't just "they're not left enough".

America is a broken country beyond repair. It doesn't need resuscitation, it needs an autopsy.

I hope amy and pete feel good about themselves being used.

They sure as shit aren't getting any positions in the white house. Those are reserved for the donors during the GE.

[OnlyRegret]

Clyburn saying nobody wants healthcare for free. They want it accessible and to pay for it.

Joe Biden has the proposals to make health care accessible and affordable. Housing accessible and affordable. Education accessible and affordable. You name it, he has the proposals that people believe in. Nobody is interested in getting anything for free. They want to be able to afford it and they want to have access to it.

This is why I dislike when people call single payer or universal or whatever "free". Leads to weaseling.
I just want you fucks to have affordable health care and not see people begging for insulin

The count is aobout 400 delegates in and carvelle is saying that sanders needs to bow out.

A few days ago he was like "omg the party is being take over"

[thisismyusername]

probably has nothing to do with the media ignoring his polling, painting his base as harassers, and talking about him executing people in central park.

also the whole lazy youths thing.

I mean there's certainly that. But after Sander's 3 for 3 ("But Pete w--" *slaps the shit out of anyone that mentions that bullshit*) primary wins, you could clearly see the DNC alarm-bells ringing. Hence why they had all the NeoLibs consolidate before today/tonight.

[Transhuman]

The count is aobout 400 delegates in and carvelle is saying that sanders needs to bow out.

He's saying it while he can because it won't make sense when California and Texas get counted and the delegate count levels between Sanders and Biden.
