Maybe take a step back and realize why nobody likes or trusts you, and they only side with you out of greed and fear
Also, realize that the reason it's so easy to spread propaganda and conspiracy theories about you is because you're advocating for shit like this., It's hard to disprove fake rumors that you're a power-mad autocrat, when you are behaving like a power-mad autocrat every other day.
 
And people say centrists can't meme..

I love how both Bernie Bros and Trumpists are simultaneously both rapists and incels. Someone is going to have to explain to me exactly how that works.

Also, how the fuck is Bernie pro-Russia in any way?

Ta for now, I'm gonna go rape some trannies because women won't sleep with me and I'm bitter about it.

Biden Says There’s a Good Chance He Would Die in Office, Says His VP Must Be Ready

Democrats’ leading 2020 candidate is warning voters he might die in office.

Former Vice President Biden offered the startling admission during a campaign appearance Tuesday in Clinton, Iowa.

"I can think of at least 8 women, at least 4 or 5 people of color that I think are totally qualified to be vice president of the United States,” Biden said. “But for me, it has to be demonstrated that whomever I pick, there's two things: One he's capable of being a president, because I'm an old guy."

“No, I’m serious,” he emphasized, before emphasizing that he’s actually in good shape and that “I work out every morning.”

As for who the “people of color” are who Biden might look to as a possible vice president, Biden floated Michelle Obama.

But that wouldn’t be the only member of the Obama family he would try to elevate. Biden additionally suggested he’d try to put former President Obama on the Supreme Court.

During a question-and-answer session at the same campaign stop, Biden said “I sure would like Michelle to be the vice president. “

He said he would like putting Barack Obama on the Supreme Court, but “I don’t think he’d do it.”

You know, Biden, we're all thinking it, but that really isn't something that you want to say on the campaign trail. "Vote for me because I'm so old that I'll probably fucking die" isn't exactly a great way to instill faith in the voting public. I also have no idea what Grabien News is supposed to be. The site seems more than a little partisan-y, but as long as they're directly sourcing a video with the actual statements in it, fuck it, works for me.

Fucking hell Joe at least try to not scare away your supporters for five goddamn seconds holy shit

He's been scaring supporters away since his first campaign event. If the media was merely showing all his events in full, instead of furiously curating and obfuscating everything they can, he would've been laughed out of the race by now.

Out of morbid curiosity, I kind of want to see Biden vs Trump in the general. It would be laughable. The danger is I think the media is in the bag against Trump hard enough that they can hide his defects enough for the average uninformed voter to hold their nose and vote Generic Democrat. Tech giants are ready and willing to assist them this time around, no more repeating the "dangerous mistakes" of 2016.

Considering the wide array of issues they might disagree with Trump on, and the fact that Hilary "The Horror" Clinton isn't on screen, there's a good chance independents or the both-parties-suck crowd would give it a shot.
 
If you go to PredictIt they say Stop&Frisk, Biden and Sanders can win nomination. Stop&Frisk has no chance. The election is on the lower end of Lean D if Biden wins because he'll correctly ignore his left because they will vote for him anyway with Trump. That+Demographics should give him the win. Sanders is Tossup because he only has Demographics. Senate math is favorable to republicans because the DEMs threw away IN (Brett), MO & ND (openly Pro-Choice) so it's a Tossup if Biden wins and Lean R if Sanders wins. House is on the upper end of Lean D if Biden wins and on the lower end of Sanders wins.

Styx is making a optimistic and serious mistake with him preferring Biden over Sanders to face Trump, Biden is tougher and is the teflon democrat partly because the others suck more and partly because Sanders keeps cucking himself to him rather than tearing him apart. Trump will have a jolly good old time mocking Biden but when it goes down to brass tax, Biden is not as much toxic as Hillary was and Trump has a serious chance of losing to Biden. Them blacks will vote for Biden with their noses along with every other minority in the country, neoliberal and neocon wall streeters doesn't have much of a problem with him and karens and other activists that love banning everything will vote for him.

Former New York City mayor Michael Bloomberg prompted more questions than answers when he released a campaign ad on Tuesday.

The brief ad shows Bloomberg asking: "Where is my ice cream?" After someone hands him a pint of ice cream, he acts pleased, saying: "Mmmh... Big Gay Ice Cream is the best."

The seemingly out-of-place video provoked a wide range of reactions, including from Twitter users who suggested Bloomberg was trying to pander.

"How did anyone think this was a good idea?" The Young Turks host Ana Kasparian tweeted.

Big Gay Ice Cream, which owns and operates three stores in New York City, did not immediately respond to Fox News' requests for comment.

The ad was one of a series of head-turning moves by Bloomberg since announcing his 2020 candidacy. On Wednesday, he released a video touting his support among dogs in New York, one day after a clip surfaced of him appearing to shake a dog's mouth rather than its paw at an event in Vermont.

During a Democratic primary debate earlier this month, Bloomberg's team tweeted a picture of meatballs on a plate and asked its followers to spot the one that looked like Bloomberg.

Democratic presidential candidate Tom Steyer accused President Donald Trump of heinous crimes and overt racism during a television interview Tuesday.

Steyer appeared on C-SPAN’s “Washington Journal” and the host asked him to give a reaction to the Supreme Court’s decision to lift lower courts’ injunctions against the Trump administration’s “public charge” rule, which can deny permanent status to immigrants who have used taxpayer-funded benefits. The California billionaire, after declaring his opposition to the ruling, took a broad swipe at the president’s immigration agenda.

“What you are referring to is the ruling saying that, if you are going to come here, if you are poor, if you are going to start at the bottom and need some help to get going, that you can be denied a green card and you can no longer emigrate to the United States of America. That’s completely contrary to our history,” Steyer said.

“Mr. Trump has politicized immigration. He has used it really to talk about race,” he continued.

“He is not opposed to immigration — he is opposed to immigration by nonwhite people, and under those rules, he has inflamed his supporters,” Steyer said. “He has committed crimes on international law, but he has also tortured children, and he has committed crimes against humanity.”

At no point did Steyer offer any examples or evidence of what “crimes against humanity” the president allegedly committed. The mention of “tortured children” is likely in reference to reports of detained migrant children at the U.S.-Mexico border — something that was a common occurrence in previous administrations, including the Obama era.

This is not the first time Steyer has accused Trump of opposing “nonwhite immigration.” He said as much during a December Democratic debate and also said at the time that the president was scaring white people into believing that they were losing control of their lives. Much like his appearance on C-SPAN, Steyer offered no examples at the December debate to substantiate his claims.

The billionaire hedge fund manager detailed Tuesday how he would reform U.S. immigration if elected to the White House, implying that he would reverse Trump policies that prevent foreign nationals from applying for asylum, provide a pathway to citizenship for the country’s illegal alien population and make an overall shift back to the immigration system seen in the Obama-era.

“I wound end his illegal and, in my mind, highly unethical treatment of people coming here, seeking sanctuary. I would go back to a lot of the Obama-era policies, including [Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals] DACA, [Deferred Action for Parents of Americans and Lawful Permanent Residents] DAPA, [temporary protected status] TPS,” Steyer said, adding:

“I would end the Muslim travel ban. I would try to get comprehensive immigration reform for the 12 million people who have lived here an average of 15 years — it is an open secret, everybody knows they are here.”
 
“What you are referring to is the ruling saying that, if you are going to come here, if you are poor, if you are going to start at the bottom and need some help to get going, that you can be denied a green card and you can no longer emigrate to the United States of America. That’s completely contrary to our history,” Steyer said.

Oh really. Steyer doesn't know shit about history.

Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882 - first language barring "any person unable to take care of himself or herself without becoming a public charge."

Immigration Act of 1903 - "It codified previous immigration law and added four inadmissible classes: anarchists, people with epilepsy, beggars, and importers of prostitutes."

Immigration Act of 1907 - updated the list of banned people to include "persons likely to become a public charge" and people who had "mental or physical defect being of a nature which may affect the ability of such alien to earn a living".

Immigration Act of 1917 - "This act added to and consolidated the list of undesirables banned from entering the country, including: alcoholics, anarchists, contract laborers, criminals, convicts, epileptics, "feebleminded persons," "idiots," "illiterates," "imbeciles," "insane persons," "paupers," "persons afflicted with contagious disease," "persons being mentally or physically defective," "persons with constitutional psychopathic inferiority," "political radicals," polygamists, prostitutes, and vagrants."

And so on. Most of the changes after that were to adjust the quota system, un-ban Asians, replace quotas with visas, re-ban Communists, add preferences for skills, etc.

But what about that poem asking for "your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to be free"? Well, it was put on the Statue of Liberty in 1903, the same year that Congress officially banned "beggars". A mere four years later, they re-affirmed the ban on people unable to earn a living.

You can dislike that history all you want, especially since it was the result of some really nasty racism. But to claim Trump's policies are "completely contrary to our history" is ignorant bullshit. We've been keeping out prospective welfare recipients for as long as we've been quoting that aspirational poem. Longer, even.

They only threw away Indiana because "muh Pence", when you saw Obama winning Indiana in 2008. It can happen.
 


Gallup reported Monday that satisfaction with race relations has jumped 14% since Trump’s inauguration.

The number of respondents saying they were satisfied with the position of blacks and other minorities in the nation increased from 37% to 46% since January 2017 as well, the poll notes.

Overall the results are good news for a president in the midst of an impeachment trial and seeking re-election in November. Confidence in the “state of the nation’s economy” has catapulted from 46% to 68% in three years, a 22% increase.

Gallup notes, “Satisfaction is also up by between six and nine points on crime, the position of blacks and other racial minorities, the distribution of income and wealth, and the opportunity for a person to get ahead through hard work.”

The numbers on race relations seemingly fly in the face of rhetoric from progressives who not only routinely label the president as a racist and is actively or passively promoting a white supremacist agenda. Democratic New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker has called the president “worse than a racist” while CNN legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin labelled Trump a racist for calling Democratic California Rep. Maxine Waters a “low IQ individual.”

When Trump criticized the infrastructure in Baltimore and said the city was “rodent-infested” House Speaker Nancy Pelosi called the comments “racist.”

Trump has consistently noted that unemployment for black and Hispanic Americans has reached an all-time low and that minorities are benefiting from the economic boom the country is experiencing.

The pollsters explained their methodology: “Results are based on telephone interviews conducted January 2-15, 2020 with a random sample of –1,014— adults, ages 18+, living in all 50 U.S. states and the District of Columbia. For results based on this sample of national adults, the margin of sampling error is ±4 percentage points at the 95% confidence level.”

Former New York City Mayor Mike Bloomberg surged past Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren into third place in a new 2020 Democratic primary poll.

The poll, conducted by The Hill and HarrisX, saw Bloomberg pick up four points (11), while Warren lost ground (9) on frontrunners Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders and former Vice President Joe Biden.

Biden maintained 29 percent support, but Sanders, like Warren, dropped two points to 17 percent compared to the previous poll’s findings, recorded January 13-14. The Sanders-Warren feud hit boiled over on January 14 during the CNN-Des Moines Register primary debate, when allegations that Sanders had previously told Warren a woman couldn’t be president were addressed by both candidates. Cameras additionally caught the pair declining to shake hands after engaging in a fiery exchange immediately after the show.

“I think you called me a liar on national TV,” Warren posed to Sanders, who answered, “Let’s not do it right now. You want to have that discussion, we’ll have that discussion.”

Meanwhile, Bloomberg appears to be taking a page out of businessman Andrew Yang’s book, and has embarked on an unconventional viral social media campaign, despite failing to qualify for a single primary debate.

According to the Real Clear Politics Average, Sanders is currently leading Biden in the first two primary states. He currently holds a three point lead ahead of Monday’s Iowa caucuses and a nearly ten point lead in the New Hampshire primary.

Former South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg registered 5 percent support in the new Hill-HarrisX poll. Billionaire Tom Steyer and Yang both recorded 4 percent support, and the remainder of the field clocked in at 2 percent or less.
