with this iowa nonsense it looks like Pete is the new chosen one. Did he pay off the shadow app but forgot to pay off reddit? Is the paycheck to the mods there in the mail bot not in accounts yet so for the time being it's organic? Right now looking at r/politics it looks like they have censored pro bernie talk again, but I don't see pro pete stuff, instead it is just orange man bad stuff for now.

dems definitely perfer trump to bernie, Hillary lost on purpose, rich just wanted cover for tax cuts for the rich and tax rises for the middle class which trump did. Other than that all the same policies as obama.

I agree with you, except with their intent. You see malicious strategizing, I see unbelievable levels of delusional arrogance resulting in gross incompetence. I don't think they intended to lose. They just refused to see reality (that some people may disagree with them) and it finally bit them in the ass.

Just because someone disagrees with an opinion doesn't make them unintelligent... and for someone strange reason the Democrats have refused to acknowledge that for the last 15 years. Something happened during Obama's presidency that really fucked up the party.

I would not be surprised if pete wins primary thru rigging, I had thought biden, I just know there is zero chance bernie is allowed to win it, he'd actually win based on popular votes, and win rust belt swing states so he'd win electoral college as well. DNC, owned by rich, will never allow it, they would rather have trump in. I suppose they'd like Pete instead as Dems like obama always have better cover to cut social security, repubs get criticized for it too much. But I think they are fine with Trump.

they would rather have trump

?

I guess we'll just have to wait and see. Can't imagine they'd shoot themselves in the foot 2 terms in a row, but they are acting incredibly erratic as of late. Damn paper ripping on TV is the first time in awhile the cracks have begun to show.

paper ripping on tv seems just for show. Behind the scenes and with little paper she did not rip up the patriot act, she approved it and sent it on to senate to approve and for trump to sign. I remember repubs pretending to hate Obama but then they are buddy buddy behind the scenes. They'd rather have trump than bernie but I am sure the elites would not mind pete, biden or warren. Or trump, either way you win, in this way they have nothing to fear, and let americanws play in the election sandbox and the TV networks can get ratings if it looks close and have funny sound bites like paper ripping or trump's funny tweets.
