Socialism does not sell in the US. That's why the self-identified Socialist consistently outpolled both Clinton and Trump.

Clinton also out polled Trump.

The Democratic Party has been overtaken by the capitalist class. But if they overtook it, we can overtake it too.

And all you have to do to shut them up is say "president Donald Trump"

I don't know about this Bernie 2020 talk. I love Bernie and all, but he's going to be so old. He was already old in 2016. Turns out, in 2020, he may be even older.

its more like "Bernie please find us a candidate for 2020, ty"

Tbf, we weren't wrong to laugh about how inept and dysfunctional the Trump campaign was. We were just wrong to, you know...feel at all secure that Clinton's campaign was any better.:ughh:

The good news is, there's so much that the Dems can do moving forward to do substantially better in 2020, whereas I don't think the GOP can continue to win with this coalition without someone like Trump at the head of it.

Except for all those wins in congress and at the state level.

The probability that someone from Russia accessed a wide open secured SCADA system at a US utility is probably 100%.

That's not objective. There needs to be convincing evidence that Russia was behind the hacking and the leaks, but there isn't any. Everyone agrees that it probably happened, but they can't prove anything. Which makes it hard not to think about how Iraq probably still had WMDs.

What more do you want? Do you expect them to release server logs or something?

Does this happen to Republicans in Republican controlled areas, where moderate Democrats run as Republicans and win?

Sure. Some cities make it a "non partisan" race for this reason.

our african-american base supports those measures. its only the coastal hellholes which believe in public schools --- and only because theyre so loving segregated

How do you propose ending segregation in America? Because segregation is worse after Obama than before Obama took office.

Bussing is the only thing that works and not very well.
