2020 Democratic Primary Thread: Focus on House & Senate races

[King Kreole]

wym breh? I missed it

 

[StatUS]

what about getting rid of medicaid and medicare?

Assuming a Dem is president bar Bloomberg, I doubt that comes up.

 

[New Jeruzalem Journalist]

That black dude should have asked how will get it passed through Congress? Medicare 4 All would never pass a Democratic led House & Senate. How doesn't his supporters understand this?

Exactly. Why would Democrats in the House and Senate push for an overhaul like that when their constituents just elected a man as president who ran on M4A as the cornerstone of his agenda?

It's not like they'd be in fear of losing their jobs if they went against the will of the voters who..........wait a minute

 

[Oldschooler]

If they pass that bill it's over for them for a decade plus probably longer career suicide

How? If you cancel M4A it automatically means you probably took huge money from the great insurance companies and wall street. Their rep is damaged now that's career suicide.

 

[OfTheCross]

you're trying to move the goal posts


no thanks

What you mean? Y'all wanted a plan and you're getting it.

Now the question is how you get it through Congress, no?

That's the natural progression of the conversation.

Bernie's IT team is furiously deleting Warren 2020 logos and headers off the plan before posting it tonight

Two many white dudes. The only black person actually pressed him to do something.

buck stops with Bernie, nice try, nerd

Obama didn't go into too much detail either, iirc.

Congress gotta do their job.

The question is how we get them to do their job.

using that centrist coward Obama

 

[Worthless Loser]

A straight public option or even ACA expansion will have issues in congress.

Public option has an actual chance of passing. It seems more realistic.

I can guarantee you if the democrats don't pass his M4A bill it's over for them automatically the next few elections.

Pass it and have the GOP take Congress for the next 6 to 8 years.

or you don’t want to destroy 2 million jobs nor force the millions of Americans happy with their coverage onto a government plan. Heaven forbid there be more than one way to provide coverage to the uninsured!

You realize in order for it to pass senators and representatives from purple and red states would have to vote for it too right

This nikka is killing it right now

I agree with bernie on castro
