General Politics Discussion VII [ARCHIVED] • Page 581

the audience for that specific version of the message is not his voters. It’s the media and Neera.

That’s the only thing I can think of.

 

Don’t be so shy. Over the past four years, I’ve become much more comfortable in wishing for the death of specific individuals, and I don’t think it’s anything that needs to be apologized for.

 

biden dying would be a net positive

 

Yeah, two months ago I would have absolutely agreed. I'm honestly just so sick of needless death right now. I was even pulling for Boris Johnson to recover when I read that he was in the ICU, and I absolutely despise that MF. Hopefully I'll be back to normal in a few months when we have a better handle on this whole thing and I can grow my beard back.

 

We party in the streets when Trump croaks.

 

Even when the DNC gets to handpick his replacement in the GE with no say from the voters?

 

William Henry Harrison goals

 

Has Biden himself said much on what needs to be done about Coronavirus or is it just Trump criticisms? I know he's still denying Medicare for all during a pandemic, so there's that. What do you think Biden and his cabinet would do differently specifically? Genuinely curious on what his policies on it would be.

 

I'll disagree, but only because the numbers all show overwhelmingly that the vast majority of Bernie supporters are going to, and were going to, vote for Biden.

 

As a diehard basketball fan, I am totally willing to sacrifice the season so people don't die.

 

I mean it's not really a big ask....

 

By far the most wtf push notification I’ve gotten in a while.

 

sooooo what are you suggesting that’s actually different than the last two primaries?

 

....too easy, not even gonna say it

 

I honestly believe Biden would get out of the way of the experts and listen to them about what is best for the health and safety of the American people, allowing the science, research and data to inform his strategy and his approach as opposed to just going on hunches and what his gut tells him, but that's just my opinion. I could be dead wrong about that.

 

Unless there was an election that Biden had stake in then he’d ignore the experts and encourage people to go out and say things like it can be done safely and it’s up to the courts.

 

A part of me would like to see Biden appoint Hunter to some ridiculous position like trump does with his dipshit family just to see maga people lose their minds

 

Exactly, so what’s the point?

 

I’d venture a two fold guess, 1) he actually believes what he’s saying about how Trump is an existential threat, and 2) from rumblings in the Bernie community he wasn’t happy about the “I don’t endorse Joe Biden” messages from various Bernie groups and former staffers.

 

“Last year, he oversaw the hearings for four officers accused of covering up the investigation into the 2014 Laquan McDonald shooting. He presided over the hearing of an officer who shot and killed 55-year-old Bettie Jones and 19-year-old Quintonio LeGrier during a confrontation with LeGrier in 2016.”

 

He’s gonna lose by over four million votes. Voters spoke.

 

Bernie is going live in a few on fb.

 

One I’d figured for a while and seems clear, two I hadn’t heard before. Interesting

 

hmmm
