And the 2016 Ralph Nader Award Goes to� Bernie Sanders

Sanders distracted Hillary Clinton from creating a unified vision for the future

On Election Day, Senator Bernie Sanders earned the 2016 �Ralph Nader Award� for the Leftist Most Responsible for Helping Republicans Win the Presidency. True, Donald Trump cleverly exploited voters� frustrations. And Hillary Clinton�s campaign in 2016 was as rigid and empty as it was when she lost in 2008. Still, Sanders helped Clinton lose. His insurgency pushed her too far left to prevent an effective re-centering in the fall, while goading her into wooing different constituencies rather than uniting the nation...

I'm dying. "Clinton was progressive Mittbot who managed to make Trump seem like an outsider. But what really did in Clinton's campaign was being too pro-working class. :argh:

It seriously felt like an after school club or something. Obviously I'm completely naive about how this stuff works but it seriously blows my mind. There were about 10 people who showed up for the first time because of Trump, but how was that number not hundreds? How is their outreach so bad? It seems like they're entirely relying on people randomly showing up of their own accord. It doesn't make any sense!

Almost like we need some kind of exciting and uplifting, positive message rather than just pointing at the status quo and saying "eh, good enough."

No one gives a gently caress, you idiots. Sit back, watch south park and laugh. After 4 or 8 years they win by default anyhow and we will find new things to care about, like different tenses for how people feel and then the bathroom you use will be determined by smartphone apps.

Unless all the Chinese leave housing prices aren't going to drop lower than a million.

They just passed a law charging $10,000 dollars per year for empty homes, and $10,000 per day if the home owner lies about it. That should provide more housing for renters, but doubt it will drop the price of detached homes much.
