Hopefully Warren is just waiting for her VP announcement

 

Well I mean, he said that he wasn’t going to interfere in the primary so honestly he was probably waiting for Bernie to endorse him

it is funny that warren didn’t endorse him yet though

 

VP warren and Bernie playing some type of role in his admin would get me excited

 

Isn't it pretty widely known that he was involved, though, behind the scenes? lol.

Politics is such malarkey.

 

Lol House Dems big message bill around health insurance is to fully fund COBRA, per the insurance industry’s request. Even when it comes to purely symbolic proposals, liberals would rather reassure AHIP than tell Americans they believe they should all have healthcare. What a useless, useless fucking party.

 

Stay at home advisory from the DPH. Non-essential businesses are closed. Schools closed. No travel restrictions, people entering MA are encouraged to quarantine for 14 days.

It isn't that Charlie Baker hasn't done anything at all. He has actually done very well compared to some other governors around the country. I just think he needed to increase the measures more when our state is looking at the largest number of deaths outside of New York, and these deaths are mainly preventable if we flattened the curve more.

I do think a lot of offices and business places around the state are heeding the advisory and working remotely where they can, but the list of essential businesses is actually quite vast, and A LOT of typically lower paid people are still having to go out and risk exposure for themselves and their families to go to work.

 

Yes. I think he was waiting for Bernie to drop out before he officially endorsed Biden. He was involved behind the scenes anyway like did he think no one would find out??

Barack Obama wins the Democratic primary

 

Yeah the ONLY way to get me excited at all about a Biden presidency is Bernie and Warren in very prominent cabinet positions. And by excited I mean moving me from a 0/10 to like a 3/10

 

if you’re surprised by obama endorsing biden, even like 1% surprised, you really gotta pull your head out of your ass

 

Do you think she will eventually or do you think there's more of a chance of her not endorsing anyone?

It's still a punch in the gut that she didn't endorse Sanders when he would have endorsed her in a heartbeat

 

I'm very sorry to have to say this but Biden isn't making those kinds of decisions himself at this point in his life, and the people who are making them would never

 

These two parties man. It never ends.

 

a very normal man

 

I like how Trump claims absolute authority while assuming no responsibility. Awesome.

 

She’ll definitely endorse Biden soon. She was definitely just waiting for there to be a clear nominee before endorsing anyone. My theory has always been she didn’t endorse Bernie in hopes biden could make her VP or give her a cabinet position, but didn’t endorse Biden before Bernie dropped out so it wasn’t a total stab in the back to progressives

 

Just gonna be honest dude, I don’t think this is gonna sway anyone who feels betrayed by her

 

tommy vietor spending 20 minutes implying tara reade was harassed and not assaulted.

these people are the worst of the worst.

 

Wow, NH secretary of state just opened mail in ballots for anyone who requests one in the September and November elections.
