Anathema- Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 It's not so much "the media" as it is 90% of NYT opinion writers. But you could call a group that includes 90% of NYT opinion writers, "the media," and it really wouldn't be too far off base. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skillzdadirecta Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 Just now, Jason said: How many states haven't had primaries yet? Don't know, but he would have had to win 60% of the remaining delegates to catch Biden. Do we know what the results were in Wisconsin last night? Do we care?

ThreePi Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 Kinda makes sense he waits until after Wisconsin. While GOO fuckery will probably still propel their Supreme Court candidate over the line, had Bernie dropped out people probably wouldn't bother voting at all because there was no primary.

Guest Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 And the only time Biden fucking showed up in media decrying the Navy Captain's firing, and back into the fucking bunker hole until November. Yeah, I don't even care enough. I vote, Trump wins. I don't vote, Trump wins. Do anything, Trump wins. Do nothing, Trump wins.

It’s really the only issue they can use to get people to vote for him. Democrats rallied behind a guy who is possibly a rapist and wants to return to status quo lmao. The top issue for them is to simply beat trump. but do people who aren’t that invested in politics even CARE that much about the judiciary? I’m not sure they do, but could be wrong.

Brick Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 Sad to see Bernie having to drop out, but please, regardless of how you feel about Biden, get out there and vote for him in November because anyone is better than Trump, and I don't think America can handle another 4 years of that human pile of elephant excrement. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that’s fair. Most people don’t care about the judiciary, unless they follow politics. But it’s incumbent upon the Democratic Party to explain why the judiciary impacts everyone. Milwaukee’s voter turnout yesterday was around 3%. Trump doesn’t have to turn over his financial information to Congress, because they “don’t have standing.” Those are just a few issues from the past 12 months. That impacts every person. It’s an area Republicans have consistently done well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skillzdadirecta Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 Meanwhile, Trump sees an opportunity. https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/491776-trump-urges-sanders-supporters-to-join-gop-after-senator-suspends-campaign Quote President Trump on Wednesday urged Sen. Bernie Sanders's supporters to join the Republican Party after the independent Vermont senator announced he was suspending his bid for the Democratic presidential nomination. Trump also thanked Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), reiterating his belief that she may have taken away enough votes from Sanders on Super Tuesday last month to cost him states. Warren finished third or in some cases a distant fourth in each state Joe Biden won on Super Tuesday. "Bernie Sanders is OUT! Thank you to Elizabeth Warren. If not for her, Bernie would have won almost every state on Super Tuesday!" Trump tweeted. "This ended just like the Democrats & the DNC wanted, same as the Crooked Hillary fiasco," he added. "The Bernie people should come to the Republican Party, TRADE!" Yeah he definitely sees something in Bernie supporters that he can potentially exploit. Is he wrong?
