General Politics Discussion VII [ARCHIVED] • Page 1632

Wow they let Beto just go out there and call him racist.

 

Pretty sure that’s the exact argument one of those republican posters on AP made at one point. (Pre-South Park’s episode basically saying the same thing.)

 

So they put together this montage of presidential candidates talking about Joe and the campaign and they actually remembered to get Moulton some screentime? At least get Swalwell in there instead.

 

tik tok needs to be banned though cause china

 

Cory Booker: “[Biden] is a guy who’s gonna walk into the Oval Office and not have to find his way around.”

Uh.....

 

its gonna be a nightmare. in 2016 you still had the anti trump wing there. You had Ted Cruz telling people to vote their conscious.

Now everyone has basically either rolled over to Trumpism or is at the dem convention.

actually now I'm curious... are they even letting Mitt speak?

 

Something to remember when someone tells him pardoning Snowden will fracture and troll the left; he has no actual principles at all.

 

Anyways, I haven't been watching this whole thing because had some other stuff come up. Have Michelle or Bernie spoken yet?

 

Nope not yet

 

lol no introduction for Bernie, just a schmaltzy video about Biden and then a cut directly to him. Trash.

 

Let’s see a close up Beto.

 

poser definitely doesn't even use KALLAX shelves from Ikea??!?!

 

Beto: Records
Bernie: All the wood in the world

 

Nero reference ftw

 

I think he coulda won the primary with this message to be honest.

 

Bernie be like "I cut all this myself."

 

I feel like Bernie's sequencing here has been fantastic. Hook his supporters in by directly speaking to his movement. Then transitioning to talking about the dangers of Trump to keep them on the line. Then switch to talking up Joe so its not just "Not Trump", but staying true to his values.

 

He’s making a good argument. You can tell he actually means it and likes Biden too, tad different than 2016.

 

God, that speech was awful lol it was like watching Bernie’s corpse animated by some terrible DNC staffer dark magic. That line about Trump golfing just felt so deeply uncharacteristic and hack-y.

 

“Going high is the only thing that works.”

Lmao ok Michelle, tell that to the party currently in power and the freshly-packed federal bench

 

Michelle rules

 

Always funny

 

Its kinda stunning how Michelle can spend ten minutes simply talking about empathy, barely mention Trump or Biden's name, yet its still an effective indictment of Trump because we can see exactly what she is talking about in Trump's actions
