Biden is also not going to address the corruption Trump fed on and spread, nor address the CBP/ICE abuses and the damage done to the EPA/FCC/etc.

He's a status quo guy, and he'll likely continue to crappy cross aisle bipartisanship attempts that gave McConnell and the GOP all the power they could ever want.

What makes you say that? He was behind quite a bit during the Obama administration. I was a Warren guy so I'm bummed but Biden would be ..... Wayyy better than Trump.

Better than Trump is a low, low bar to pass. Actually dealing with the gigantic turd Trump has laid and exposed in our country is significantly more difficult.

If Biden is on the ticket come November, Biden is who will get my vote, but I'm under no pretense he's going to do anything to actually address issues.

Election wise, this is a thread that I think people need to look at where it comes to Biden and his position w/ black voters.

https://twitter.com/MsPackyetti/status/1235253529582931969

Same thing goes for women being dismissed for feeling feelings about Warren being out.

Black Americans, which, make no mistake, are the backbone of the party, and women both, have not appreciated being shouted at, re: you don't know anything, you're low-info voters, you're idpol shills, or you're just goddamn idiots. And most of the people doing the shouting are white dudes, which :shrug: I mean, it's not a good look. Put women and POC out front to do your talking is what I'd tell most people. With Warren out I'll be going to Sanders, and these are things to keep in mind moving forward.

Some people won't be won over, though, and this is the part that looks bad for Sanders.

EDIT: Words

I suspect voting for a guy who praise Strom Thurmand over a guy who marched in solidarity with Civil Rights marchers and was arrested for it, might have less to do with Joe's work with Obama, and more to do with the average Black American dem not being very left and more centrist.

"Marched in solidarity with Civil Rights and then hosed off back to the north because he did his good deed," and has since just basically ignored the south as a campaign strategy.

Blame it all on centrism if you like, but there are some genuine missteps the Sanders' campaign has made, in that regard.

I dont think this is remotely true i.e. him ignoring Southern States and faux progressive overtures, but lmao if you dont recognize that blacks in the south are conservative centrist dems outside of large cities.

If your politics endorse White Supremacists, ignore system issues, and advocate for oppressing minorities, let alone caging their children, your politics are extra wrong.

7500/12 is 6250/mo before taxes.

Before taxes might be a hint of how bad your math is. Also, add a 0 there.


After taxes, its like: $4,566

If your rent is $3k, that means you have about $1,500 to play with. Now subtract bills, assume at least $500 in bills, you have a bout $1k in liquidity. That's really not as much as you'd think.
