the hilarious thing about Bloomberg is even if he beat Trump (he wouldn't) Trump would just run again and beat Bloomberg in the following election, repeat ad nauseum

i wonder if the whole "stop erasing warren" thing is more about "how can we give her the presidency as the compromise candidate if the media isn't still propping her up?"

She's pretty transparently working the refs, trying to get some free media by appealing to their inborn decorum, and it seems to be working at least a little, if you count them covering her whining.

It's interesting to see Bloomberg beating Biden at saying "If you want Obama's third term" by ramping up that constant association and falsely implied endorsement to 11. I want to see a centrist say "Actually, Obama endorsed me in private" just to see what happens. It'd probably be Pete Buttigieg

Warren has captured the exact slice of Clinton's base that thought this was a good idea, and she has no room to grow outside of that because everyone else loving hates it. the sensibilities of that crowd just do not overlap with anyone else's.

Donald Trump: "Healthcare is so cheap under me"

Media: "Sounds okay to us"

Bernie: "This person paid 3000 dollars for a tylenol"

Media: "THE BILL WAS FOR 2999.95 YOU loving PIECE OF poo poo GO gently caress YOURSELF AGHHGHGHGHGHGHGH"

This is great, but it usually ends up being more like:

Bernie: "This person paid 3000 dollars for a tylenol"

Media: "The bill was actually $3,284.95, but $285 of that was due to CA sales tax. The gross price of the prescription was $2,999.95, so if a patient were purchasing the pills in Oregon where there is no sales tax, they would pay less than $3,000. 5 Pinocchios."

she absolutely isn't lol she pivoted to sensible unity centrist #5 as soon as the nh results came in. she and everyone around her knows the campaign is toast and if she were actually committed to progressive policy like she used to pretend to be she would drop out and back sanders because he has the best chance of implementing the stuff she claims to care about. instead she's standing in a whole foods lamenting the haters and trolls

nope she is, she’s trying to thread the needle as the progressive plan maker versus pie in the Sky Bernie.

it’s why she doesn’t attack Bernie on policy because it’s bad optics for her

remember the one where bernie said that millions of people are forced to work two jobs in this awful economy, and the billionaire scion of the shell corporation said that actually it's only like 8 million people in america that do that. 3 pinocchios.

Warren's getting all her ideas from the campaign staffers she picked up from Kamala, Gillibrand, Beto, and Booker, it's as simple as that. It just goes to show that hiring campaign staff based on who the media would like is foolish.

Christ there are a lot of Bloomberg stans out on Twitter today

I feel like people supporting Bloomberg is the side effect of something Chris Hayes talked about last week, where a ton of voters have been scared shitless of Trump by the media and are more interested in supporting someone who, in their opinion, "can beat Trump" rather than someone with policies they like. Bloomberg has spent a shitload of money convincing people he's the guy Trump's scared of, he's the guy who can take it directly to Trump, and he's moderate enough that "real America" will vote for him, and cable news is following right along. So now he has this army of dumb liberals going, "He's our guy! He can win and that's all that matters!"

It's loving maddening.
