2020 Election

I like musical chairs better. More fun, and the participants have to exert themselves.

 

You win the internet for today

 

white people. . . .

 

Iowa Republicans back Trump in caucuses, batting away two GOP challengers

 

Is this that game that there's one chair too less and everybody has to take a seat when the music stops? If so, I concur

 

Insults are OK if Republicans dish them out. We are required to be polite … just because they insist upon chivalrous honorable patriotic hypocritical horseshit.

 

I'm afraid that's not going to help.

 

I disagree with you.

 

No, I say Flag is correct.

 

We get ballots mailed to us here in Oregon and the counting of them ( I believe) is done off line. Pretty tamper proof.

 

Musical chairs. And a chair is removed after each round. I think we should just have them all twerk on stage until only 1 remains gyrating!

 

MAXWELL: “Maybe I’ll be the only person to say this today. The Iowa caucus is essentially the perfect example of systemic racism. 91% of the voters in Iowa are white. The reason why you see a drop in turnout, I'm just speculating here, it could be perhaps that white children are not in the cages. So when you’re talking about the tangible pain that black and brown people are feeling, they feel a sense of urgency because their kids are being put in cages, right? So if you have 91% white electorate, that sense of urgency may not be reflected in the turnout numbers. I’m not saying that’s the reason for this. It could be a factor.”

I think they are doing the results now.

It's looking like Sanders and Buttigieg are neck and neck! They're saying something like Sanders has the popular, but that doesn't mean he's the winner. It defers to "State Delegates" eventually. I wonder what the fuck they're counting now if not the final results. =-(

 

It ain't over til it's over but at 62% reporting :



Bernie has almost closed the gap on Biden in SC according to recent polling.
Biden's showing in New Hampshire is likely to be just as pitiful as Iowa
And there's another debate coming up where he'll probably say something stupid or insult another generation or tell some more people not to vote for him.
I'm calling it now, it's over for ol' Joe

 

Did d you see trump's interview with hannity? Trump said Sanders is a communist. That will be trump's mo if he faces the colonel.

 

I did see but I couldn't hear/didn't read the closed caption. I was in a restaurant. I had thought that it was going to come on at half-time. There was a big to-do in our family. Boycotted the game for that... Fox. Go figure.

 

So? We already knew he was going to pull the communist card.
And if it was Biden, Trump would attack the creep factor.
And if it's Warren, he'll call her Pocahontas the whole time and do some sexist dog whistles.
If it's Buttigieg he'll tap into a well of bigotry and homophobia.

You dont win against a bully by cowering. Whoever wins has to be strong and unapologetic in who they are when they go against Trump.

 

Those are the probable top three; at least in Iowa (Sanders, Buttigieg, & Warren). I like Buttigieg, but I don't know what America will do with him being gay. For instance my family is catholic and they probably wouldn't like that. I don't know because we haven't talked openly about it, but I distinctly get the impression that they like Bernie. But politicians are never a perfect fit, and for me it really doesn't matter; though I prefer a Sanders win.

 

Actually, that's what Bernie's fans are doing on tw!tter right now. They're also saying Mayor Pete rigged this with some association with the people who wrote the app.
