Opinion Bernie Sanders is going to win the Dem nomination in 2020, and become President

[Seano]

I honestly think Sanders would destroy Trump in a debate by high roading him.

Snarky Trump attack.

Sanders: "I'm here to talk about the issues facing the average American. I'm not interested in turning politics into TMZ."

4 more years if Sanders secures the nomination.

Won't work, too many morons like Seano entertained by Trumps imbecilic grade school insults.

I don't think Trump can win a Republican primary in 2020.

Remember I said this when he announces he isn't seeking re-election.

Don't believe his lies that he just doesn't want to do it again, or he accomplished what he set out to do. He isn't going to run again, because he knows he will lose in the primaries.

I actually agree with the possibility that Trump chooses to sit the next one out.

That said, if he runs and his competition is Sanders, he will win.

That is the beauty of high roading. It appears that you are taking the high road to dumb people, to everyone else they see the art of that comment. It is passive agressive. It is an attack without insult.

If he runs, then he thinks he has a good chance of winning.

I will be most surprised if he runs again.

 

[PEB]

Once people understand what socialism is and isn't they will.

7:24 about student debt 1.2 trillion remember the Pentagon cannot account for 23 trillion dollars so that 1.2 trillion does not sound so bad when you realize the Pentagon is willing to admit it cannot find 23 trillion dollars.

Why not? I can’t think of a more popular republican.

I would think it’s more likely that if the economy remains strong, he calls it after this term as its very hard to keep going uphill for 8 years. He’s in the history books, he’s passed major legislation, call it a win and blame the problems on the next guy (actually girl, as they’re going to run Nikki Haley next).

That being said, Trump’s ego knows no bounds, so who knows.

He's already running again.

You think those rallies are for kicks? I mean, even if you hate Trump, I don't know how you could come to the conclusion that he won't run for re-election, other than wishful thinking. There is literally nothing to indicate he's not interested, or is thinking of backing out.

 

[Fedorable]

He has more energy than half the people his age or people half his age? I think we need to clarify this one

I have half the energy of people twice my age.

 

[WhiskeyPunch]

Trump will serve two terms.

Nothing lines up to paint her as a decent person or a sensible/ trustworthy politician. She represents everything your flock supposedly want to overthrow.

I'll just skip the rest of your immature bickering and get down to the substance: public policy and democratic governance isn't, or rather shouldn't be, a popularity contest. You can derive objective policies from a politician and appraise their worth, regardless of the person furthering them.

That's what adults do. Clinton would not have ballooned the deficit with giant tax cuts to the rich and shifting of the tax burden to the middle and lower classes. Clinton would not have appointed a for-profit school tycoon and a former Devry University dean to head education. Clinton wouldn't have appointed an oil executive to head the State Dept. Clinton wouldn't have appointed an oil executive to head - and systematically destroy - the EPA.

What she would have done is further policy that is for the most part a carbon copy of Obama's: the same policy that created the largest continued job growth in American history, stabilized the economy, and (for the most part) can be credited for the current bull market economy.


So, again, your reduction of comparative politics to "I don't like either of them, so therefore they are equally bad" is fucking retarded and shows how little you know about actual policy.

Could Bernie Sanders run — and win — in 2020?

Assessing Sen. Bernie Sanders’ (I-VT) 2020 chances is complicated. While polls have dubbed him the “most popular politician in America,” he faces substantial challenges from within his own party (many of whom will be quick to tell you that Bernie is technically not a Democrat). Will the enduring enthusiasm of his message or the lingering bitterness over the 2016 election decide his fate? Could a Bernie Sanders 2020 campaign lead to a win? Only time will tell.

The tension between Sanders’ progressive mission and ill will left over from 2016 might be enough to persuade him not to run at all. The Vermont senator has been incredibly active since Trump took the White House, making appearances and authoring bills, but he has not definitively said whether or not he will run for president. Then in May, Sanders announced he is running for re-election to the U.S. Senate in 2018.

Were Sanders to win a presidential election, he would turn 80 before his term ended. However, when recently asked about the senator’s age, fitness, and ability, Sanders’ former campaign manager told Salon that Sanders “has more energy…than half the people his age,” and that he’s certain he could serve a full term.

Sanders announced his running for Senate again last week. That is a 6 year term from 2018-2024. I believe this means he will run for president in 2020.

So here is a Newsweek article talking about Bernie's support slipping in New Hampshire.

https://www.google.com/amp/www.newsweek.com/are-bernie-sanderss-2020-polling-numbers-slipping-survey-new-hampshire-voters-908766?amp=1

I found this story hilarious, because it basically says 39% of New Hampshire voters prefer Warren or Bernie, with Biden, Booker, Harris, and Gillibrand coming in with 34%.

I don't think any Bernie supporter would be salty about a Warren/Bernie ticket come 2020.

With that said, Warren didn't run last time, and isn't showing any signs she is running this time.

I hope Joe Biden runs, because it will take away the age attack on Bernie. They are the same age.

Bernie has been building a online media empire that outperforms Fox News, and CNN in viewership numbers.

He has a political organization that rivals the DNC, and RNC in Our Revolution.

No one has ever had the tools Bernie is about to have going into 2020, without having to sell out to corporate donors, and the Party's.

Bernie Sanders will be the next president of the United States. The only person I think can stop that is Warren, and her winning, is a win for team economic progressive.

Discuss..........

So guy with VivaRevolution as his name wants a socialist for President. Oh the irony!

 

[GearSolidMetal]

Remember I said this when he announces he isn't seeking re-election.

This would be the first time a Socialist is right about anything.

 

[ocfightfan]

I hope not.

Figure out the difference between the Washington Times/Post yet?

Yeah, fuck FDR and Teddy Roosevelt too.

But I guess they were already rich before they starting speaking the truth and helping the American people, so they get a pass.

If you weren't born wealthy, you cannot talk about socioeconomic truths unless you live like Diogenes. I only elect social democrats who actively live in cardboard boxes.

No one here said anything about it being a popularity contest. there are so many blatant parallels between the two individuals most striking being their pathological lying and corporate ownership even down to foreign parties being in bed with them to get them to their current positions that saying one would be far far better than the other is as hilarious as it is ignorant. As the other poster noted Hillary has some ideas that were better than Trump and theres even a few minor things this idiot is doing right That however doesn't make them a good politician or the "better choice."

And again all this Hillary wouldn't do this or this as if it is so matter of fact based on what? Her campaign promises? The woman was blatant war hawk and would strait faced deny it to the public when grilled on the matter. Yet we are supposed to hold good faith she wouldn't do things like balloon our deficit when she showed leading up to the running she she didn't even grasp our deficit issues! How it is so hard to get that it would be incredibly unwise to trust this woman on any issues given her constant history of never keeping her stories strait? Or would you rather just inflate minor matters she would likely do better and presume she would simply just go what barrack did whilst jamming your fingers in your ears and ignoring the heaps of problems that surround her.

And i already detailed my argument about why they are both shit and it did not just boil down to " i don't like them!" You're simplifying my belief to the point it resembles yours when you bray loudly about people randomly being right wingers.

I've noticed others here have commented on it but at this points its evident you like to prance about accusing everyone here of doing precisely what you post on a daily basis. You produce simplified naive theories that lack anything resembling pragmatism and when others point or don't share the same thoughts you just retort with one long winded attempt at " NO U!"
