2020 Democratic Primary Thread: Focus on House & Senate races

[DonKnock]

what exactly is bloomberg "doing" we're gonna pass a law telling people they can't fund their own campaign? that might be the most unamerican shyt ive ever heard

bloomberg is not winning this nomination. he has every right to buy himself commercials

That tweet is an exhortation to voters not lawmakers.


Lawmakers are obviously going to be more partial to people who will buy them off.

A list of things Michael Bloomberg actually said about fat people, rape, George W. Bush, and J.Lo

Bloomberg is probably done. Even if he enters the convention on top, they may just snatch the nomination from him.

“This business of ‘Well, they can afford it; they should pay their fair share’? Who are you to say somebody else’s fair share?”

“I, for example, am not in favor, have never been in favor, of raising the minimum wage.” “To fight poverty, we need to do something even more basic, and that is raise incomes. And we should start with the most straightforward change: raising the minimum wage.” <--- let's trust this guy!

Income inequality: “That’s not a measure of something we should be ashamed of.”
“The way to help those who are less fortunate is, number one, to attract more very fortunate people. They are the ones that pay the bills. The people that would get very badly hurt here if you drive out the very wealthy are the people he professes to try to help...but this city is not two groups, and if to some extent it is, it’s one group paying for services for the other.”

his juelzing quotes on stop & frisk are

republicans win either way if he were the dem nominee

he's simply in this as some NY Billionaire pissing contest with Trump

Well well well

I hear the sweet sound of newborn bad faith arguments crumbling




Eat poop


Somebody tell Liz to stop splitting the vote and wasting all our time.

that doesn't say they have the same voters tho...the demographics are different.

and how about Bernie stop splitting the vote, 1% more bernie voters have Liz as second than Liz voters for Bernie, so yall better off coming this way

on MSNBC Ari Melber was interviewing people about who they voted for and this old lady just said that she was deciding between multiple candidates including Warren, Bennett and Bernie and she voted for Bernie because MSNBC's negative coverage of him made her angry enough to vote for Bern

Chris Matthews acting like bombing msnbc headquarters and executing him on the WH lawn being Bernie's first acts as president would turn anybody off

It would be best for democracy if only individuals could contribute to campaigns directly or indirectly, up to a certain $ limit. No rich people having outsized influence by spending tens of millions of personal funds on ads. No corporations contributing unlimited cash via Super PACs. They gotta raise that ad money from the people. Let the best ideas win, not the deepest pockets.

But America is completely controlled by corporations and the rich, so that'll probably never happen.

Hillary Clinton is now confirmed less viable than Mickey mouse.

this comment both and at the same time

So Mickey Mouse would have more success than Hillary?

 

[dora_da_destroyer]

I won't be able to vote until the NY primary on April 28th. By that time, the nominee will probably already be decided .

yea, that's a change they'll never give us. a primary season with candidates visiting states in any order they see fit, and collectively voting all on the same day
