General Politics Discussion (VI) [ARCHIVED] • Page 35

That would really piss off the die hard Hillary voters. That faction of the internet / dems haaaaaaates her.

 

They hate him already. I feel like if that is gonna turn them off from voting for him, they probably wouldn’t vote for him anyway

 

I dunno, I’m seeing “woulda but this is the finger poke to the eye that says he doesn’t care about us.”

 

Idk, I feel like even if he doesn’t choose her they’ll find some way to justify not voting for him

 

Why Has It Taken Us So Long to See Trump’s Weakness?

 

I wonder what % that makes up. My guess is not much. I think someone is gonna need 30% about to win the nomination.

 

Has she ever held elected office?

 

I would agree

state senator in Ohio

 

are people gonna see her as qualified as a VP you think? demographically, a young black woman is basically his ideal VP, but she's such a bernie insider and is probably mostly unknown to people that aren't internet primary sectarians so idk.

 

What a lame t-shirt

 

remember t shirt hell dot com

 

That man is too young!

 

idk to be honest, but I've seen a lot of people talking up Stacey Abrams as a running mate for him (and others) and they both have about the same type of experience, except that Turner was in the Ohio Senate longer than Abrams was in the Georgia House

 

T Shirt Hell was like a one-stop shop for every awful shirt you see advertised on Facebook.

 

Funny they mention bookers baby bonds in the headline but not booker himself.


Unless somebody else is pushing for baby bonds too that I missed.

 

nah they were way better than those procedurally generated ones. it was real idiots making those designs on t shirt hell

 

Ah damn. Just checked and it still exists. The designs are still ugly as hell and full of MAGA uncle jokes.

 

I finally got a Bernie text and I pitched my slogan, if that's on hats and t-shirts in a few weeks ya'll are welcome

 

HAyes just asked him about Venezuela lol

 

Two things Bernie mentioned that congress needs to pay more attention to:
-Robotics/automation taking jobs away from people
-rural areas

This is 100% right.
1. Why is no one talking about automation? One of the reasons Trump did well in the midwest is because millions of manufacturing jobs were lost by a combo of bad trade deals and automation
2. Democrats did even worse than usual in rural areas in 2016. Paying more attention to those areas problems is still important.

Also, when asked about nixing the filibuster he said that that is something Trump is actively trying to do now to get his agenda easily passed and right now we need to focus on electing a more progressive congress and a democratic president (which I believe I said something quite similar yesterday)

 

Bernie this relationship isn’t working out. You’re too needy. It’s too much buddy. I need my own space for a little while and then we can try again.
