Stolen valor!

 

Williamson’s answer is clearly most relatable

 

Really hoping Biden's numbers will stop dropping as soon as someone gains momentum. Of all the shitty candidates he has to be the worst. And there's good competition.

 

Two great Warren polls in one day.

 

Can't wait to see how the polls adjust after the debates. I gotta think that a few more candidates will start polling at more than 1 or 2%. Just seems weird that only 5-6 candidates really have any traction at all right now

 

Jfc Biden shut up

 

I think it’ll go the other way with support congealing around likely winners. I don’t think people are gonna see a 1% and think “that’s my horse to get in on now.”

 

Nobody who has ever had to say "I don't have a racist bone in my whole body" has ever been right

In fact, it almost guarantees the other thing

 

its true, if theres one thing you can say about the grateful dead, its that their concerts were all the same

 

Can't wait for the votes to get split down the line between Warren and Sanders, thus securing the nomination for Biden

 

Adding them together still isn’t enough currently to top Biden. And as more of the lesser candidates drop out it probably adds to his lead. And depending on the state, it won’t “secure his nomination” unless he gets a massively higher percent than them combined with how delegates get awarded.

 

Tbf, he had been involved in civil rights his whole career. Just not the pro civil rights side

 

The world is stupid and I’m mad about it.

 

The nice thing to remember is Biden is terrible at running for office. So, pressure from us should keep having him stumble.

But the media also kinda sucks at covering this very well. And it’s early af.

 

I'd love if Booker just torpedo'd Biden like Christie did Rubio, they're not in the same debate group even right?

 

Unfortunately no. Booker is night 1 Biden is night 2

 

Correct.

At some point one or more of the smaller polling candidates has to go at Biden hard. It’ll either make him seem strong as the front runner, or it’ll hopefully bring out the gaff machine and show everyone he can talk handle a general election. I think Harris and Beto and Booker and Pete should all be aiming at him. They’re the ones that can take his support away imo. I don’t think they’re gonna pull much of any from Warren/Sanders.

 

I will not read the Federalist take on Taylor Swift no matter how many times people tweet it.

 

please drop out thanks
