CNN BREAKING NEWS: Celebrated Senator Elizabeth Warren invents new type of jet engine that runs on hopes, dreams, and unicorn farts. This engine not only creates no emissions, but it actually takes man-made pollution out of the air. Up next, Jim Acosta reaffirms his heroism as he reports how the evil despot Donald Trump consumes two scoops of ice cream while he triples his carbon footprint by burning brown people at the stake.

Orlando Tim Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 I honestly am unhappy with Mayor Pete winning- he would be most difficult for Trump to challenge. His military status along with limited decisions to attack make him harder to bash. I do not think he wins nomination but I think Trump trounces all others.

Bernie's likely to get an early lead after early states. The rest will have to catch him. IMO the longer Biden stays in, the longer it will take others to pass Bernie. Joe's not gonna do great but he'll have support that the others will badly need to overtake Bernie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete polls at 0% with black voters. (yet somehow he had six black women behind him when he made his victory speech in Iowa of all places.). Death for a Democrat. Add onto that Trump dishing the dirt on him for months on end. When you listen to him it's all platitudes and political cliches. Of course the same could be said of a lot of them. I'd vote for him over Trump but he's well down my list. Edited February 5, 2020 by reddogblitz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete is very Liberal - he has taken a page from Obama to talk quietly and not push all the more radicalideas. He may be a good guy but I do not understand how a small town mayor of an under performing city is ready to be president. Before I hear the ...but Trump, he has led a large, global corporation with more budget and complexity than a small city. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reddogblitz Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 45 minutes ago, Teddy KGB said: He can shove that 15 dollar minimum wage up his ass I'm torn on this one. I like what Bernie says that if you work 40 hours in America you should be able to afford a place to live and food. However the way it works is if you pay the lowest people more, you gotta pay everyone more AND it probably means less people hired cuz they cost too much. There was an article in the Seattle Times the other day about robot pizza makers. They mentioned the rising cost of labor as one of the reasons for it. A couple of times. Quote And why not? After all, robot bartenders, including for the home, are all the rage (although the top-of-the-line model will set you back the price of a luxury car). Moreover, with labor costs rising and margins falling, no one doubts that the future of the food service industry is automation, both behind the counter and in the kitchen. https://www.seattletimes.com/business/we-made-pizza-we-made-robots-why-not-robot-pizza/ This all great for THE MAN and once again the little guy takes it in the shorts. Sad. Another option would be we just pay 25 cents more for a pizza or an extra 5 cents for a Big Mac and keep people employed. Doesn't seem so bad.

Every critique, including and especially those that are policy based, will be met by the media with "Trump's KKK brand is now anti-LBQT!" The race card got Obama elected. Twice.

Doesn't seem so bad. Doesn't seem so bad...until it does. $15/hour sounds fair...until it doesn't. Suddenly it must be $18/hour. Or $20/hour. And it all sounds fair. Until it doesn't. You get paid what you're worth. Not happy with your pay? Why is that the business-owner's fault if you're getting the market rate for your services? Don't like McDonalds? Do you have any idea how easy it is in this country to learn a trade? Half the community colleges in this country will do it for free, funded by companies who need trade laborers. Plumbers. Welders. Electricians. Carpenters. But that's not a message that works for liberals because it requires independent thought and self-accountability, and if you read enough posts here by Q-tip and Tibs, you know the average leftist is incapable of either of those things. It's not a question of what they can do to better themselves. It's a question of what can the government do to make it easier for their lazy asses to make more money in the laziest way possible. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
