--- The 2020 Democratic Primaries are an utter clowncar poo poo show. A number of candidates are running, and most of them are jokes.

It’s too bad Kuncinich finally cancelled himself for good last night with his bullshit whining about the race card lmao.

VH4Ever posted:Dude this LITERALLY is how we have Trump. Remember people saying "OMG we MEMED a president into office!" No it’s not, I hate this argument because it obscures the reality of why Trump is popular among the right wing. It’s not because he’s a meme, it’s because he’s a racist piece of poo poo who will be racist in public. Williamson is not going to meme her way through the Democratic primary because she doesn’t have any kind of draw like Trump did with his racism to his base.

Gripweed posted:How is it a gimmick then? It's just an accurate statement Because Marianne is still bad but for reasons unrelated to what was stated. The fact that she’s still better on the issues than the vast majority of Democrats when she isn’t babbling about space magic is deeply damning of the party at large. But she’s still a crystal magic crazy person.

volts5000 posted:For me, someone has to break the stranglehold that corporations have on our government. Bernie is obviously good on this. Warren’s fight to build the CFPB and her very public attitudes against Wall Street make me believe she’s good on this as well. Perhaps my greatest disappointment with Warren other than her cavalier attitude towards Palestine, is that she’s admitted she plans to accept PAC and corporate money in the general election if nominated.

Majorian posted:Well, hold on a second - are we stipulating that this thread is just for 2020 primaries, just for the presidential primaries, or something else? Because if you just want it for 2020 races, fair enough, but I don't think we should exclude downticket races from this thread. We’ve clarified this before but this thread is explicitly, exclusively for the presidential primaries, which is why that is the only thing in the OP. It is not in the title because that makes the title too long, and because it is usually understood in this forum that when you say “the Democratic primary” without qualification it means the presidential one. The State and Local Thread is where that goes.

Nonsense posted:Bernie is the only one who’s recognized being harassed by the left isn’t fun or good. I don’t think he’s concerned with fake news centrists. I’d say Bernie is the only candidate who fears the left wing activist base more than the donor class which as it turns out is really useful to the left wing activist base!

This forum truly is pathetic for how much energy we expend concerning ourselves with a joke grifter candidate who is polling at 1%. “Lol crystal queen” memes are dumb but she also literally doesn’t matter. It has about as much effect as “lol giant meteor 2020” memes do.

eke out posted:correct, she reversed 20 years of stated positions and votes back around late 2016 when she began to prepare to run and has been like this since. which is why every time this comes up people have to link that jacobin piece about her pre-2016 votes (particularly 2014, during 'protective edge' or whatever euphemism israel gave that particular set of attacks on gaza) I don’t think it’s a sincerely held belief but I also don’t think Bernie’s positions on the issue are nearly good enough even though he’s better than the rest of the field. In summary,
