Hellblazer187 posted:Maybe he did. It didn't feel like it at the time, but I was pissy because I backed Clinton and I thought Sanders was unfair. The perception may be colored by how bad the fight seemed at the time. The point is I'm not really a huge fan of Bernie the guy, although I've moved over to his positions on the issues, and I'd have supported him in 2016 if he won and I will support him in 2020 if he wins. You should probably finish pulling the head out of your rear end and divorce your petty rear end feelings from the reality of the situation. The only person who got did dirty in the primary was Bernie. And more Bernie voters voted for Hillary than Hillary supporters voted for Obama in 2008. Your feelings are wildly misplaced. quote:No. I'm not going to get into relitigating the 2016 primary. I'm not going to change your mind and your not going to change mine. I thought Sanders was unfair two years ago and I will still vote for him for President if he is the nominee for 2020. That's the point.

It pisses me off cause I thought lefties were unfair when they posted that meme at me in 2016. No-sir, no we don't! We just disagree about how to get there and! But then here we are and it's at the very least true of some liberals. Edit: I do think it's pretty hilarious that I come in with "I don't really like the guy but I support his positions and will vote for him" and people crawl out of the woodwork to demand an explanation for me not liking the guy. I think I hate liberals and leftists, but I hate fascists worse.

But I mean, I'd take him over Trumpy Him winning is pushing back fascism for MAYBE four years, two if he decides to play the bipartisan game with the inevitable Republican Congress after the mid terms in 2022. Everything he says and has done indicates his solutions will be to push austerity and kiss rear end to finance after the coming economic collapse which is just going to strengthen the hard right and demoralize everyone else. THATS what's so terrifying about him. He would be ushering in someone that makes Trump look like the joke he is.

Because apparently those words, when strung together, mean something. Because you're basically a Fox news grandpa repeating poo poo that's not true. And then when called out on it you fall back on to "I don't care what the facts are, I just feel that way." It's okay for you to learn things and change your opinions accordingly. I mean, hey, look, you don't have to like Bernie Sanders but when you are confronted with the fact that all of the reasons you supposedly didn't like him are demonstrably, provably false, and THEN you say you still don't like him it's a weird look. It's a really weird perspective to take.

Whoever it is will have two years of a (hopefully super) majority that they will need to use to bust rear end actually doing poo poo that better's people's lives. Basically the Dems will have exactly that much time to prove they are what people want. I do not envy the next Dem to take office. They will have a lot of damage to undo to contend with, along with an absolute requirement to make average people's lives better.

The idea that people want bipartisanship as a goal and weak rear end centrists of either party is just a dream of pundits that love the status quo. The point is that anyone who becomes the GOP nominee is just another horrible authoritarian/theocrat. I’m just personally fighting the panic of Pence/Kasich/etc getting the nom because Trump for whatever reason doesn’t. That and my complete lack of faith in the American people to recognize that person for what they are after 4 years of Trump.
