ya, my prediction is that it plays out like the 2016 GOP Primary where it's 15 people all stabbing each other in the back for the establishment lane because they believe it is fated to win, and this guy who says things the base loves and is really popular with them is just a flash in the pan. I don't think any of them have any idea how to attack Bernie because if they did they would've by now

I agree. bernies super popular with the base and his policies poll even better. how do you attack him unless you attack him from the left? it's the trump problem all over again.

imagine wringing your hands over having to say "we're going to implement medicare for all instead of subsidizing greedy pharma companies" as though it's at all equivalent to having to literally start quoting the Turner Diaries to out-Trump Trump

that's where most of the Dem field is right now lmao

Bernie and McCain worked together really closely on VA legislation so every time Megs gets salty he’ll just say, “Man it feels just like yesterday that your dad and I were talking about how we could do better for our vets” until she ugly-cries all her pancaked on makeup off.

Ding ding ding. It would be better if unleashed the sound and the fury but all he has to do is talk about McCain doing things then ask what she's up to and she look like the fail daughter she is.

If you can't attack him for what he says, you attack him for what he is: an (almost) 80 year old white heterosexual man. "Bernie's great but his time is done. We've got it from here."

To scare the pearl clutchers you also make a big stink about what the people who support Sanders say. Quote some scary Run the Jewels lyrics to make the old white people faint. I can already see the campaign ad of Bernie hanging out with his friend Killer Mike while they play "when you niggas gon' unite and kill the police motherfuckas?" over the top of it.

Personally I hope they lean hard into calling him a socialist because if they do that, socialism will be the coolest loving thing on Earth by the end of 2020 if Donald Trump rants about it every day.

Until Biden is completely out of the running they can't attack him for being an old white guy lol

no need to even go that far with Killer Mike tho, a lot of these weirdos still worship Reagan so just that takedown song would suffice

I thought Biden was going to stay out of the race specifically to allow the other candidates to play the age card on Bernie.

Yeah you have to attack Bernie from the Left. Warren could get him on his lack of a codetermination plank I guess. He's advocating for a robust social-democratic welfare state, but not for workplace democracy as forcefully as he could be.
