John Delaney is a fuckin nobody who will best be remembered in history as "that guy Elizabeth Warren dunked on at a debate once" everyone else can see this, why can't he see this and drop out. what kind of egotistical galaxy brain do you have to have to think "ah yes in a race where Joe Biden is running, I have a strong chance as a white male centrist to win"

Chilichimp posted:They REALLY want Warren to just "ADMIT IT ADMIT IT YOU BITCH!" that people will pay taxes under her plan that will remove all of their healthcare/insurance costs. CNN was blatantly trying to get a tax soundbite out of both Bernie and Warren last night, it was infuriating and the biased moderating was a big reason I walked away after 20-30 minutes, I was about to start yelling at the TV in the restaurant where I work at. VH4Ever posted:So, who still says Liz can't be forceful with Trump in a debate later on? Liz is stronger than people give her credit for. I love when she goes Full Schoolteacher on someone asking a poo poo question: I'm all in for Bernie but Warren did exceptionally well last night and I think a lot of internet leftists aren't allowing themselves to recognize that.

Shut the gently caress up. gently caress you, shiteater. Her policies blow, they should be "health care and education are infallable rights in our society." Full stop, no question or concern about who is getting what or how we'll pay for it BECAUSE MONEY ISNT loving REAL JUST PRINT MORE. Any candidate saying, "well there's many roads to take like blah blah blah" is going to generate a Numbers Fuckstein policy in place of state provided health care and higher ed.

Bernie and Warren are my top two folks I'd like to win but Warren talking about how much of a capitalist she is gets me nervous. My takeway from someone talking about how much of a capitalist they are is "I'll do all of this 'good' stuff for you provided I can make money on it". Profit + Healing people don't go well together.

HootTheOwl posted:I think that only a moron would assume Donald Trump is going to let you get your whole statement in before he interjects. WRONG! What is a moderator even supposed to do in a two person debate? Withhold his time? He can just not attend the next one and you're hosed. In fact, part of me thinks he will just do that if an impeachment process starts. "The democrats are engaged in a witch hunt and this isn't worth my time". And it might get him re-elected anyway.

We're redistributing wealth to reduce the disproportionate amount of power that the wealthy wield. At the same time, money isn't loving real, it's an abstract representation of what we colllectively choose to do as a society. Are you at all aware of MMT? Economists are bitcoin miners now?

The fact is that Warren is running on what would be the best D platform since FDR and people are still crapping on her in this thread (even people who support Bernie as I do). It's dumb and non contextual. Bernie himself clearly likes her and would VASTLY prefer her to any other candidate running.

The thing about Warren is that she's clearly the second best choice, but at the same time I really wish she would've ran in 2016 if she's going to run this particular campaign. Too many of her policies would've been fine four years ago, but we're in a much tougher place as a country, and we have four fewer years to unfuck the planet before the clathrate guns go off. We need much more dramatic and drastic change now and I don't have faith that she'll push for what we need, right now, for 2020.
