Do you guys think we can raise s concern about mentally ill intelligence assets addicted to adrenochrome under the red flag laws. Maybe trump is trying to dissarm the deep state with the Red Flag Laws.

The more you think... The less u kno?

If he was as anti-gun control as Moscow Mitch he wouldn't be able to get re-elected. There's no deep state.
 
Lol @ Castro. That was pathetic. Hopefully he ends his campaign today. Just get it over with.

At this point I guess Warren might get it. All the disgruntled HRC voters will eventually adopt her when Biden loses Iowa and New Hampshire. Harris just isn't very good at politics, she looked out of her league last night. Not a viable option. They're too bitter to get behind Bernie...so is the DNC.

Warren has all Bernie's views without the penis.

(P.s. thanks BETO for giving the Republicans ad/fundraising material for the next 14 months.)
 
The Democratic party is a dumpster fire. I want Bernie but I would be happy with Warren too and honestly she probably has a better chance because there's been too much "OMG SOCIALIST" shit with Bernie. But all the infighting and nonsense just drives people away.
 
This has been a remarkably civil primary, actually. They are fighting for the Democratic nomination and it’s extra this time around with such a huge field.

@mal3volent agree on Castro... that was the last gasp of a long-shot candidacy.

I’m surprised that Buttigieg isn’t getting more traction, but he’s not playing well with minorities. ?
 
I like how this is all a waste of time, because even though Trump would have lost a lot of support from his base, he's still on track to win easily.
 
No I've already stated I've withdrawn support.
But the reasons most people detest Trump are nonsense.
My #1 pick would be Gabbard.
 
Realistically, a second-tier candidate might surge or hope to get on the ticket as VP. The field needs winnowing down as it is.

I don’t see a candidate who wasn’t on the debate stage having much of a chance, but you never know.

You're absolutely correct, but you're missing the point, The reasons why she was not on the debate stage is similar to why Sanders was screwed out of getting a fair shake in 2016 - the DNC being corrupt, dodgy c*nts.

Gabbard single-handedly destroyed Kamala by telling the truth in the last debate she was in so they couldn't let her back to do that again.

They really don't like her though because she's anti-war. That's one of the main reasons I support her. She should be President - and she should at least get a fair go by the DNC and corporate media.
 
The DNC is as corrupt as the RNC, the entire establishment is just trying to serve corporate interests. Certain individual candidates are pushing for policy that I agree with. I think very few of them are not in the pockets of corporations. The DNC fucked over Bernie in 2016, for sure, which was really stupid of them, but then again Bernie is only Democrat in name, in reality he's trying to push a separate platform, which is the reason why they fucked him over, because Hilary is 100% establishment and would have upheld the status quo. One thing I'd say for Trump is that, although I don't think his intentions have ever been benevolent (I think it was all an ego thing for him and also perhaps related to business interests), at least he really brought the problems with how rotten our governing body has become straight to its core into focus. So perhaps some good will come of it, if the people can manage to become sufficiently less apathetic. Not sure that will happen but hey, at least I can hope.

I do still prefer the Democratic party to the Republican party (in their current manifestations) because the Democratic platform attempts to deliver improvements to civil rights while the Republican platform is trying to undo civil rights advancements we have fought hard to make. Even though I think for the DNC establishment, a lot of it is probably just to get votes, because their base is interested in maintaining those civil rights advancements and will vote based on that. There are some Democratic politicians that are considered rather fringe that I do believe are truly interested in making things better for the people and removing the corruption, but they're being labeled Socialists for the most part.
