END TO END BERNERS: The Official Bernie Sanders 2020 Crew thread

But they’re not promising anything, so it’s fine. The winning strategy of 2000, 2004 and 2016 lives on.

Now the 12th time this exact argument happened itt

iatee's just playin the hits

we're all v mad bc the gov sucks and we want it to suck less in different ways but in the end only one person can be right and that person is me

/the mid-terms, that’s where we’re gonna shine after 2 years of accomplishing nothing./

Based on your statement, I'd place you in the risk-averse category.

but, if you're counting on Biden, Buttigeig or Klobuchar to accumulate piles of accomplishments that will impress voters during their first half-term, I think you'll discover they won't. Based on their campaigns, they won't even try, because as Homer famously told Bart, trying is just the first step toward failure.

ready for that biden/bloomberg slashfic

it’s okay I’ll leave you guys in peace, this can go back to being a tailored collection of Dennis Perrin tweets

you're thinking of the other 6 threads, this is the berners thread where we say bernie sanders in different ways

like this:

bernie sanders

( i said that w a tx accent)

sarnie benders

it’s okay I’ll leave you guys in peace

whatever point you were trying to make was completely unclear to me anyway

iatee is a bernie skeptic which is fine but also not the point of the berners thread

I don't think tax cuts were even the main thing Trump promised in 2016?

something about a wall

a what, that's crazy

It's weird to me that the lesson from "Republicans keep winning with transactional campaigns and following through" is "we shouldn't do that" instead of "maybe we should try that sometime."

Observed at the Univ of Nevada - Reno caucus today. 7 precincts of mostly undergrads in a huge engineering lecture hall. Bernie won 56 out of 63 delegates.

Chris Matthews just compared Bernie's inevitable victory to the Nazi defeat of France in World War 2. I'm not joking

Just saw a post from A+ Memphis garage-post punk band Nots that two members are DJing a $5 entry Bernie fundraiser tonight, he's definitely winning the good music primary.

There is a white lady on MSNBC right now suggesting that Latinos are voting for Bernie because the pro-Bernie kids in the family are manipulating their parents who can't speak English. #NevadaCaucus

every time an msnbc anchor has a live meltdown bernie goes up 2 points in the polls

…bernie samders

sanders

it's been really eye opening to see how much people are freaking out. I'm hardly the biggest Bernie fan, but people really need to get a grip.

Yeah telling they’re freaking out more over this than 4 years ago when an idiot rapist game show host won

ßérnïê

it's hilarious I think more than anything it's dumbasses like Matthews and Carville realizing no one gives a fuck what they think outside of their little bubble of a cable news station that gets worse ratings than Friends reruns

thats why theyre so mad. they know their time is almost up.

james carville is such a sputtering dumbass

Matthews, who may have responded to panicked head shakes from his young staff, hastened to add a few minutes that he doesn't think Sanders "is a Red or anything, and it's nothing dangerous," but he wants him to explain his positions and why Sanders has, uh, visited Russia and not Denmark.

*few minutes laer

jfc Matthews needs a mandatory administrative leave asap

I’m talking about the early primaries where Trump went from a novelty candidate to “holy shit who’s gonna stop this guy?” while the major news anchors pretty much laughed it off up until it became clear that the Rs only hope was Ted fuckin Cruz

vodka >>>>>>> aquavit

otm

Well, yeah. But a good snaps > vodka.

nevada already called babey

Sanders is looking likely to win the nomination at this point imo. Iatee's concern is probably a good one to consider imo: if Sanders were to become President, what steps could be realistically taken towards M4A, given the makeup of Congress? Is there a way to work with states?

Imo imo

Exit DLC/Third Way, pursued by a bear.

I'm assuming that whatever conditions led to the first socialist president in like 80 years would represent a new playing field, especially in the post-Trump era... not sure what he did to politics in this country has really sunk in yet, and won't until he's gone and isn't sucking all the air out of the room
