Biden is behind Pete in Utah right now. Must be just the early votes.

 

I’m on board with that.

 

But only bad things happen to us.

 

Biden didn't want to run in 2016. He only entered the race in 2020 because if he didn't he knew it would mean Bernie or Trump. He'd be 82 on inauguration day of his second term. If he beats Trump I find it unlikely he runs for a second term.

(also 4 years of Trump is way worse than 8 years of Biden)

 

Bernie looking clearly ahead in UT. wonder if they call it soon.

 

@GrantCloud wanna go to bar or what

 

He'll probably get Utah soon but yea, that was gonna happen for sure. Idk how you replace Minnesota.

 

Yeah like I hope everyone realizes this is the case lol there is no more representative democracy in this country if Trump wins in November. He’ll keep packing the courts, including at least two more seats on the Supreme Court (making it 7-2 conservative for a generation), Barr will continue doing his thing and by the time 2024 rolls around it should be pretty easy for him to gin up an excuse to cancel the election.

 

from the actual recording of what he said, it sounds like he’s talking more about all the campaigns in general focusing on policy and that it’s in Biden’s interest if the focus is more on feeling than policy

 

it has to be texas. all of the losses tonight need to be countered by a texas win

 

completely outrageous thing to say

 

Are we even going to know Texas tonight?

 

Is this 2016 again? You know which is worse.

 

Only if someone gets ahead substantially, which I doubt but idk

 

run it up in CA and TX. that's always been the answer.

 

Nets / Celtics going into overtime ty for being a distraction from this hell

 

There is a chance that the states could be split 7-7, with Bernie winning the two biggest prizes Cali and TX. That is the best case scenario.

Worst case scenario is he only wins 3 contests, Biden wins 11, and at that point, it's over. Let's avoid that.

EDIT: Well, Biden winning MA fucks it all up. FUCK

 

I need someone to do the math for the states that moved from caucuses to primary’s since 2016 ... it seems like that change actually *hurt* Bernie on first glance.

 

she couldn’t even win her own state

 

Fuck

 

not like he dated his brother's widow or got a sex worker pregnant or anything that can be used against his dad or anything

 

Aaaaaand we’re fucked
