Democratic 2020 Presidential Primary Thread

Recommended Posts

In article in the Seattle Times on Saturday about Pete Buttigieg, he made a disturbing although I guess not too surprising comment.  I was unable to find the article online so I can't provide a link.  Here's a quoted from the story:

 

Quote

Buttigieg  recalled the experiences of several historically oppressed groups and the political movements that brought greater social and political equity. He  called for the "the beginning of a new form of American solidarity" among people who understand that they live "in a society that sees us for what makes us all different."

 

I find this sad that he sees American as a society that judges people by what they look like.  Of course there is racism in America, but to describe it this way is well, I guess, not too surprising. 

 

But then the next paragraph says:

 

Quote

But he warned that identity politics can be corrosive on the right and left, and said he feared that it often drove people in his party with a common purpose bitterly apart.

 

Talk out of both sides of your mouth much?

Did Biden really say yesterday that the Crime Bill did not lead to mass incarceration? 

 

He's a mess. And it's hilarious.

You are making fun of someone saying something stupid. :lol:  Please compile the Trump list. You have 2 years to complete it. I hope that's enough time.

Only to those paying attention.  Very little of what he says will be challenged except possibly in a debate with Trump and Trump isn't great at breaking down and challenging statements by others in a convincing way.  Trump will have his hands full against Biden who is well versed in all things government both domestically and internationally along with having strong media tailwinds.  Trump's best weapon is a continued strong economy and chopping down the Democrat party with the phony investigation and getting some indictments, well timed. As for the strong economy, it's on borrowed time IMO.

Bill Clinton’s legacy is getting thoroughly ruined over his crime bill realm, so Biden will not be able to run away from it

Are the Dems running a comedy club or are they actually trying to come up with a solid nominee?

 

Well, we are all laughing at these loons, so it must be the former.

 

Has there ever been a more disgraceful field in the history of this country?

If it did, I'd wager heavily that it was her first day as a Senator (or right before she was sworn in), and had nothing to do with her being a woman.

Abortion is health care.

 

In fact, since abortion is contraception, and free contraception is a right guaranteed women under the ACA, free abortion is a constitutional right.

I'm far more pissed off at the idea of "nomenklatura" elevators.  ***** Soviets.
