    Considered and rightfully rejected.
    The my rapist is a better candidate than your rapist won't slide with me. Biden is a creep and you know it, at one point media was even saying. You are the one being disingenuous.
    A temporary Med4all to handle corona cases is inevitable. Think about it. If people are too scared to come forward with the sickness deaths in the US will surpass a million
    Voting against Sanders Med4all and Federal Job guarantee in the middle of Covid 19 and 20%+ unemployment is insanity. He makes up the difference in a legitimate contest. Of course it is not a legitimate contest though.

    These people are not of the left as I explained before in some detail. They don't care about the detail of policy change and all the hard fought small wins for working people - like payrises for teachers who went 10 years without.

    It is kind of fascinating to compare them with actual lefty ultras

    My friends teenage girls are political active, joined SPD and work hard to vote out the neo-liberal shills from the local hamburg party.

    Stuff like that makes a big difference in the medium to long term, as compared to joining schwarze block and looting the apple store because you are mad at the G20

    And there again is the problem. Jacinda was a 10 year project with a shot at the deathstar that we needed to be ready to take.

    Haven't you seen the leaked story? Obama insisted all the other corporate candidates drop out just before Super Tuesday to consolidate support around Biden.

    Not left policies according to you:

    Medicare for All
    Federal Job Guarantee
    Green New Deal
    Free public college
    Forgive student and medical debts
    Break up the banks
    Housing for all

    All Sanders policies.

    Guys, I know we have a lot of free time in hands but what's the point of responding to this lunatic? This dude is just a few fries short of a happy meal. He was entertaining at first but his gig is pretty stale now.

    I know...I know....47% is still way too high. It is a 17 pts swing in 2 weeks though. I am willing to bet he wil be in the low 40's two weeks from now.

    Yep - this is 1943 in the Trump Presidency

    The failure of Unternehmen Zitadelle is apparent for all to see

    But now comes the collapse of Army Group centre which will make March seem like chicken feed

    I don't like that Biden is my candidate. You think I enjoy having to do this with you? Absolutely not. I hate that the alternative to the orange toddler is a creep. Joe is a creep; I'm willing to concede that. Is he a rapist? I don't see it.
    You think Trump cares about the sickness deaths? Not even two weeks ago, he called it a hoax. He irresponsibly hawked a malaria medication as a cure and someone died the very next day attempting to self-medicate with said medication. Trump does not give a solitary crap how many people die and his record reflects that.
    I still haven't heard anything from you that reflects a ten point illegitimate swing from Joe to Bernie. Bernie himself is acknowledging these contests as legitimate.

    No doubt Grimes was forced out of the race by Obama's shadowy forces

    Do you ever think you might be getting baited?

    What power would Obama have over contenders in the race?

    Is there really any doubt?

    With that wacko post above, this has seriously leveled up to troll-bait performance art.

    (Hail Grimes!)

    I'm willing to engage in a discourse.
    None, other than the fact that he can endorse Joe.

    I'm giving arguments and he's responding to them. I believe the arguments being made are being made in good faith, but are misguided. I believe that Joe supporters like myself have a responsibility to grapple with the allegations against him and engage with those who have concerns regarding them.

    In light of what's been most recently posted, I believe you are dead wrong.

    When somebody has a long and storied history of posting ludicrously stupid things like "Trump considering M4all," I don't even bother with how "good faith" they are, I just treat them like the purveyor of horseshit that they are.

    If you want to be the BigSoccer equivalent of journos who treat the utterances of Donald Trump with credulity and write things like "McConnell outflanking the Democrats on the left" a few weeks back, that's up to you, man. Hear me now, believe me later.

    He is kinda instructive. My son knows several highly intelligent people who are toned down versions of him, they are so wrapped upon into the Peoples Front of Judea vs. the Judean Peoples Front that they can't bothered fighting Rome. He says it is 50/50 if they will vote for Biden.

    Yes I know most Bernie supporters are rational, but let's put it this way ... if there are Democratic voters who are not rational, every single one of them votes Bernie. He is a magnet for that type.

    I am not a Floridan but a couple of things are on display here.

    1) DeSantis was an outsider in the GOP primary and only gained traction by making himself a mini Trump. He beat Rick Scott's guy, the former State SoS or something. Hugging Trump is how DeSantis won the general also.

    2) Not being a Skeletor guy, the first major sign of trouble and he decided to use one or his two letters.
