Trump's policies are more centralist democrat than anyone running for the DNC. He was a democrat for most of his life, and his policies reflect that thus far: no endless war, civil liberty protections, rolling back of the police state/draconian sentencing, et al. If you're looking for a centrist, you're not going to find it in any of the dems running. The party sold its soul to the pro-fascist wing and there's no going back. Are you sure this is a democrat policy? Viet Nam was ratcheted up by Kennedy and LBJ. Many, many democrats voted for Iraq War. Obama had 2 endless wars running during his 8 year presidency and he didn't get us out of either one of them. Come to think of it, neither has Trump in 3+ years.

I really do not want to see him there for another 4 years (like really, REALLY don't want it), but you know what? There is a way I might be OK with it..and that if the other choice is Sanders. A year ago I would have told you it was a certainty that I'd want any Democrat over Trump...but the more I hear of Sanders and what he/his supports want, I'm not so sure I'd take that plunge. Basically, I want a centrist. Republican or Democrat...doesn't matter...whoever is closes to the center would be my choice. Trump is too extreme to the right for me (plus his personality..ugh). But Sanders seems SO far left...if only given the choice of those two...I just may abstain from voting but in the back of my head 'accepting' Trump as the better of the two. But Bernie is the only one telling you who they all are... every last one of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is why we refer to folks like you as NPCs. Think for yourself, not for your side. Good point. But, what is the big deal? I have not heard him tell any stories of being in combat. Unless I missed something. He WAS in the Navy IN Afghanistan. Are you saying that's not true? So he got in without having to go to boot camp? Is that his fault? If you don't like it, complain to the Navy. Where exactly has he misrepresented about his service? He's not Blumthal at least that I've heard. If I'm wrong, please point it an instance of him lying about his military record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trump is the first and ONLY POTUS to attempt to end that scurrilous state of war. He’s done more to isolate Iran and their hegemony in the ME than ANY POTUS. And he’s doing it without back door deals with pallets of TRILLIONS in unmarked bills shipped in CIA unmarked planes to the Ayatollah. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't that depend on the Taliban not being violent for a whole week which hasn't happened yet? I hope it works. Didn't he also have deal between Palestine and Israel last month? Never confuse effort with results. Not sure why you're coming after me as some NeverTrumper snowflake or something. My post was questioning DR's comment that no endless wars was a D strategy. However, the fact remains that that the 2 endless wars Trump inherited have continued to 3+ years under Trump. I hope he does end them, but so far has not.

My point had nothing to do with Mayor Pete and everything to do with pointing out how you, along with most of the other leftist posters here, typically repeat what you read or hear instead of taking a moment to think for yourself. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither did Obama as they apparently put you in a room and give you the reality once you take the oath of office unfortunately. The experts were right in that negotiating with North Korea is a fruitless exercise and Trump proved that. At least he withdrew troops from northern Syria despite criticism from almost everybody so credit where credit's due on that one.

B-Man Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 There are no "moderate" democrats anymore.......... IT’S MOSTLY JUST A CASE OF THE MASKS COMING OFF: A Bernie Sanders win spells the end of America’s center-left, which is already a global trend. Sound familiar? Sanders bears the closest resemblance to his equally aged and disheveled ideological cousin from the United Kingdom — Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn. Corbyn crashed the gates of the Labour party as, essentially, an outsider. He rose on the strength of a left-wing grassroots movement and won Labor’s leadership contest in 2015 thanks to newcomers who could vote in such a contest for the first time. An unlikely icon for younger voters, he drew enormous crowds and, unavoidably himself, had a distinctive charm for his supporters. He also, like Sanders, had a history of sympathy for left-wing thugs, a bitter hostility to Western power, a motley collection of kooky allies and an utterly fantastical domestic program. So pretty much like the lower-key leftists he replaced, just not as well hidden. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
