Xombie posted:He could, yeah. I'm trying to say that Bernie doesn't become the presumptive nominee in second place. Biden's delegates so far still go to him on the first ballot, as far as I can tell. Then on the second ballot, they vote for who the hell knows. Well, yeah. But the point is that Biden needs to be out because of his lovely behavior, Bernie picking up the nomination or not doesn't really factor. In this hell world they probably just toss it to Bloomberg.

Xombie posted:This is literally what would happen. There are no contingencies for what happens when the presumptive nominee dies, leaves, etc. Other than the other nominees un-dropping and hoping for the best, but under these circumstances they can't even really campaign. He can refuse the nomination, maybe, but what happens at that point is anyone's guess. No it isn't https://www.washingtonpost.com./politics/2020/03/03/what-happens-candidates-delegates-when-they-drop-out/ quote:You’ll notice that we haven’t yet talked about the congressional district delegates representing candidates who’ve suspended their campaigns. Those delegates would go to the convention unpledged — meaning that they can vote for anyone they want on the first ballot. If you just think about what you're saying for like, two seconds, you'd have to realize that the rules aren't written so that if someone wins the majority of delegates and then dies that the Democrats aren't forced to put a corpse on the ballot like "oh well" VitalSigns fucked around with this message at 20:57 on Apr 24, 2020 |

DeWine just announced that Ohio is going to automatically send vote by mail request forms to everyone after Labor Day. You send this in to get your absentee ballot. Before, we had to request this form by phone or physically go to the Board of Elections to fill one out.

A guilt-ridden Biden crying that he’s a monster and just wants the madness to end as DNC officials force him onto the debate stage at gunpoint.

VitalSigns posted:No it isn't I'd really, really, really like it if they had a citation for the DNC saying the delegates for suspended campaigns would be depledged. Now, in several previous years, that's happened with the nominee alive and well because the convention decided they wanted a voice vote / unanimous-ish acclamation of the nominee to minimize shitshowness. But that was at the convention, not in June or whatever. And like I said, I agree that the convention has the avenues and willingness to blow up the rules if they're clearly stupid and would nominate a corpse / vegetable. And Butt et al are still getting their basket of delegates selected / voted on, so even if they get depledged that's something like a voting bloc for the Other Stuff at the convention. Raenir Salazar posted:I imagine if Biden were to drop out or died the convention would probably do a LOT of wrangling to decide on a candidate like it's the papal selection. What state are you in?

Imagine if Obama had taken the stage during the BP spill and said "Some people I know, very smart people, just the best...these people tell me they use, and this is true, they use kitty litter on oil spills in their garages. Can you believe it?! It's the best thing. so starting immediately I've ordered the Corps of Engineers to begin dumping barges of the stuff into the water to suck up the oil. Then we can scoop it up, very easy really...scoop it up and extract the oil"

It's not like George Soros made the tracklisting himself and doing a whole rant about the "shameless greed in the time of Corona" and spouting antisemitic right wing dog whistles because you, like nearly every single artist, don't own your masters and the record company is releasing something that's available for free on YouTube is gross and transparent. Gotcha, thank you for the explination KM!

"From the perspective of the Commission staff, however, $220 million for a spill response measure that trapped not much more than 1,000 barrels of oil is not a compelling cost-benefit tradeoff," it says.

Dick Trauma posted:Sweet. Baby. Jesus. The projection is staggering. It's just massive. Any time he has a thought or questions or learns something new, he immediately sticks it to everyone around him. "People say it's the greatest...." "A friend I knew just learned..." "I heard someone loved peeing on...." Just unbelievable amounts of psychological projection. It's the most clear cut, textbook case I've ever seen in a public figure.

While there is a grim logic in replaying all the parts where he tells his impressionable base to do things that will definitely kill them, if you simply mean for the optics of making Trump look bad, I think 2016 has shown that strategy has flaws.
