    Biden on May 1: "China is going to eat our lunch? Come on, man...They’re not compe ion for us."

    Biden today: "We are in a compe ion with China.
    We need to get tough with China. They are a serious challenge to us, and in some areas a real threat."
    As a trumpster you really have no room to talk.

    Where the wall at?

    Chris doesn't have a good rebuttal so let's go with the one thing that got him banned for bot like behavior.

    How many times did you fail 1st grade, Chris?

    Still not as re ed as thinking a leftist who cant even win a primary among a group of people who are literally registered leftists will do better.

    he got over 40% of the vote despite having no name recognition going into it and having the DNC doing everything it could to throw the election in Clinton's favor. The fact Clinton turned a 60% lead in the polls into a contested primary should have been a red flag in and of itself.

    Biden is already on his way into letting a huge lead evaporate because he's too scared to tell voters what his actual views are so he's making as little appearances as he can.

    this is all assuming the premise that you win by attracting centrists... in a country like ours with ty voter participation (only 58% of eligible citizens voted), there are untapped votes in your own base that can just be "energized" to go out and vote.

    if voter participation was closer to 80%, then it stops being viable to try harder and harder to extract more votes out of your base, and appealing to "win over" centrists becomes a legitimate strategy

    If the dude gets the nomination I hope he doesn't try to win over republicans like that dumbass Hillary tried doing.

    Spent the last 3 months of campaign begging republicans to vote for her for absolutely nothing.

    polls this far out amount to spitting in the wind, but the difference according to rough age cohorts is striking:

    Iowa and New Hampshire are going to be important. You could see many candidate drop out after namely, Booker and/or Harris. New Hampshire will be Bernie versus Warren. Other candidate won;t make it that far. Debates in 2 weeks will play big

    Side note, the winner in Iowa disproportionately wins the eventual nomination

    IMO Sanders and Warren are hurting each other's chances too much and one needs to get out of race early on.

    fat chance. another wrinkle pointed out in the tweet thread is that Sanders is the second choice of about 30% of Biden supporters and vice versa. maybe one of the two 70 year old men needs to get out of the way, but that ain't gonna happen voluntarily either.

    That 58% number also doesn't even do justice to the fact that only ~50% of millennials voted in 2016 vs. roughly 70% participation from boomers and older.

    Just getting millennial participation up to 60% would be enough to make it virtually impossible for Trump to get reelected, but there's not a ing chance a Delaware relic in his late 70s who openly talks about millennials is going to be the one who drives millennial turnout.

    I'm inclined to think that's just a name recognition thing and nothing else and might change once debates get started. Biden and Sanders are about as far apart from each other as it gets in terms of ideology, having Biden/Sanders as your 1st/2nd choice seems like you're just picking the two most recognizable names on the ticket.

    Plausible.

    Exposure is bad for Biden. The more people see, the less they'll like him. I'm hoping he says/does something to sink his own chances before the primaries come around. It wouldn't be the first time.

    I'd consider voting for Bernie if he was, you know, a Democrat.

    He's a socialist who refuses to join a political movement for collective action.

    Correct, but I care more about the actual issues than I do about whatever label is next to the person's name.

    I guess you care more about labels than issues.

    Uncle Joe Biden Will Win Lady Vote With A Foot In His Mouth & A Finger In Their Face



    what in the ever-loving is that? There's quite a lot wrong here, but the most egregious is the idea that it's the job of a young girl's brothers to make sure she never has sex. They are not nor will ever be in charge of her body.

    But this is more than just a tired old joke from a
    tired old man.

    It's patriarchal thinking that's completely out of step with modern feminist thought.

    That's sort of important because the Democratic party is supposedly the feminist one.

    JB is way past his "Elect By: " date.
