I saw that Nevada decided "Yeah, we don't want that to be us" and won't be using the app.

In a way I'm kind of glad this happened since nobody else is going to want a major multi day debacle on their hands like this.

Before the Nov 2016 election I was looking forward to laughing at all the craziness that Trump would cause if he won and so I kinda secretly hoped he would win.

Now before the Nov 2020 election I'm looking forward to laughing at how disgusted the conservatives will be if Buttigieg wins, to see the Repubs slowly squirming in horror at his lifestyle choices, watching Repubs threatening some sort of revolt and seeing conservatives opening planning attacks against progressives for what conservatives perceive as abysmal moral behavior if Buttigieg is elected in Nov. So I kinda secretly hope he wins. Looking forward to quite a show.

Huh. I was just hoping for a better world for my fellow people, and still am.

What wins elections is simply who has the better message. The more simple it is the better.

Yup, the Democratic canidate should make their campaign slogan 'I r gud, trump r bad.' I think that would be a winner.
Then they run on the platform 'Will make it rain money.'

This fiasco will resonate for years minutes. This delay is a non-story unless one is desperately seeking grievance.

I remember R's being at each others throats during the Iowa caucus in 2016. Shit, pretty sure Trump skipped the debate because he claimed the R's media was out to get him. Bottom line, Iowa caucus is a non issue.

Expanding Social Security | Elizabeth Warren

A generation of stagnant wages and rising costs for basics like housing, health care, education, and child care have squeezed family budgets. Millions of families have had to sacrifice saving for retirement just to make ends meet.

Where did I say that other candidates didn't support the cap removal at least to some degree? I was only talking about the corporate elites within the DNC being against its removal.

Conspiracy: This was all planned so the coverage all day today would be about Democrats, not the SOTU. An hour after the SOTU they'll dump the rest of the results.

Nobody in the GOP has the cojones to stand up to Trump. At least they quit preaching about their supposedly superior values, huh?

No one is going to seriously run against an incumbant from either party. You know this already.

I'll take back what I said earlier. This guy stands up to Trump & he doesn't have a prayer-

Bill Weld for President 2020 - Bill Weld for President 2020

weld2020.org weld2020.org

The GOP base lost their fucking minds over Trump. You know this, right? If GOP politicians wonder how they got crazy enough to do that they need only look at themselves in the mirror.

Who ran against Obama after his first term? Who ran against Bush? Who ran against Clinton?

You're being very obtuse.
