    Like am I supposed to believe Biden is better for this country right now that Bernie...LOL. Thats a joke.

    People voted for him mainly because of "they wanted someone who could beat Trump" and not because they agreed with him on the issues. Polls are reflecting that. Guess what, Hillary was that way too I bet and look at what happend.

    No one really tried hard to beat Trump when Hillary was running, there was no movement to defeat Trump. Everyone thought Hillary was going to win and Trump was a joke.

    So what is the problem with Bloomberg?

    Should he not influence politicians on climate change and gun control or healthcare?

    Who would have been influencing him?

    I am not mad at anybody just giving my opinion of what has gone wrong in his campaign and him as a candidate.

    I actually like a lot of his platform I just don't think he could get anything accomplished because of his style.

    My number one issue is income inequality so nobody is blind to anything, you are kinda making my point for me.

    Well I'll put it like this, how do you feel about the NRA lobbying?

    I don't have that much of an issue with lobbying personally, I have an issue with dark money. If someone is bought by the NRA I at least want to know it

    Disagree, if people actually paid attention to what Bernie and Biden are saying they woulndt think twice. Its been known that the more people got to know Biden, the more they disliked him. Most people dont pay attention, they see his name brand attachment to Obama and go vote for him. I'd rather vote for a guy whos no nonsense and tries to get things done than Biden who's going to do nothing and who literally says dumb crap his entire campaign and gets the nomination because he got support from Klobachar, Butigeg, and Bloomberg at the end. Not to mention young people being a massive disappointment.

    Like yea his campaign isnt perfect, but no one's is.

    I disagree with your theory of the case.

    Where are you getting that the more people got to know Biden they disliked him? The numbers don't back that up.

    Take over and subsidize are two VERY different things. Bernie isn't looking to subsidize anything that isn't already subsidized in some form, could you name one new thing?

    Also, can you tell me which one of his plans is not tenable for a capitalist society?

    Im not what the hell, did you miss his whole freaking campagin, god damn dont be dense.

    "
    Yet any suggestion that Mr. Biden is now a risk-free option would appear to contradict the available evidence.

    He is no safer with a microphone, no likelier to complete a thought without exaggeration or bewildering detour.

    He has not, as a 77-year-old man proudly set in his ways, acquired new powers of persuasion or management in the 72 hours since the first primary state victory of his three presidential campaigns.

    In fact, Mr. Biden has blundered this chance before — the establishment front-runner; the last, best hope for moderates — fumbling his initial 2020 advantages in a hail of disappointing fund-raising, feeble campaign organization and staggering underperformance."



    ANY TIME the dude opens his mouth he sounds like a complete idiot, his voting record speaks for itself. Did you think Im just making up how dumb he looks on his campagin. @justtxyank For you too, since I'm just making it up. :rolleyes:

    His voting record also has a lot of baggage as well. Do you really think people are voting for him because they like him???? Thats a joke.

    No , its not a joke - He's better for the country than either Bernie or Trump , the former would financially bankrupt us , the latter morally and ethically bankrupt us.

    There just isn't enough billionaires to tax to pay for his $14.5Trillion in spending.

    Klobuchar > Buttigieg > Biden > Warren > Bloomberg > Trump > Hillary > the turd your neighbors dog left in your yard > Bernie.

    Bernie is going on Fox News on Monday to do a Town Hall. Expect him to really try to gut Biden.

    Almost all of your recollection is largely false. Sander's did say that he did not ask Clyburn for an endorsement is about the only thing that is actually correct.

    BTW did you actually see the whole interview? I did.
