Bernie Bots are gonna be Bernin’ Down The House in Milwaukee.

[dp0622]

Amy and the fruit are still gonna be on the ballots. Probably a load of votes cast already.

A few people might not know they dropped out.

It will be a disaster for dems during the debates with Trump if he gets the nod.

The dementia will be worse and he will get crushed.

But I think the powers that be on the left rather see biden get crushed than see either bernie win OR bernie hand the House back to Rs in a brutal loss.

Interesting times.

It will be interesting to see if Biden can win super tuesday

[ There is no guarantee Joe Biden has what it takes to win the nomination. Throughout his career, the biggest obstacle he’s faced has been himself. He’s a horrible campaigner, gets basic facts wrong, lies about easily disproven events from his own life, forgets where he is and what he’s running for, has a bad temper, and appears on the verge of sleep when most candidates would be feeding off the energy of the crowd. What’s sad is, of the remaining candidates with a chance of winning, at age 77, Biden is the youngest candidate left. ]

Worth repeating.

With this Hunter stuff the Rats seem determined to nominate a guy who has one foot in prison. Our country is broken irretrievably. It can’t even produce reasonable facsimiles of institutional artifacts that are credible.

[Stevenfo]

I can see a Trump ad now with Biden bloopers. Many more to come.

[wastoute]

They make themselves and they do so at such a pace you can just roll in real time.

[nesnah]

It’s all crappola. Bye-Done isn’t getting any nomination. He’s being used as a stalking horse to get to Milwaukee.

Hillary WILL BE the nominee.

[Betty Jane]

When I go to the polls in a few hours who should I vote for here in TN? Biden because he is senile, Bernie to keep his supporters hopeful longer, or Bloomberg because he’s a spoiler? Decisions, decisions.

[Fresh Wind]

Most of the dropouts are now playing for the VP slot knowing that Bye-Done won’t last out his term if he should beat Trump.

The clutch of endorsements by failed Democrat candidates for Joe Biden reveals a deep anxiety born of a new understanding of the mortal threat to the life of the Democrat party presented by Bernie Sanders, a threat that goes beyond the sheer numbers piling up in a trump victory which will likely cost the Democrat party down ballot races.

The old pros of the Democrat establishment understand that a Bernie Sanders candidacy represents a mortal threat to them but the really savvy old Democrat pros know that a Bernie Sanders presidency is perhaps an even greater threat to their occupancy of the swamp. Sanders is not a Democrat even so it is not that Bernie resides outside the strict definitional contours of the Democrat party as a socialist or a democratic socialist, it has to do with Sander's philosophy. Sanders is a true believer, he is a communist, a Marxist, a revolutionary who wants to overturn our entire political system which means that he will turn out Democrats as soon as he will turn out trump Republicans.

All leftist revolutionaries dispose of useful idiots as an immediate first step upon obtaining power. The list is long, Lenin, Mao, Castro, Maduro, and so on. That is not to submit that Bernie will resort to murder, but he will resort to extraordinary moves to substitute his own base for the corrupt present-day Democrat power structure. The bulk of his voters understand this to be the whole point of his candidacy. So if Bernie is denied the nomination, it is almost as bad for them as if he were defeated in the election because they equate the power structure of the Democrat party with the established power structure of the swamp. They mean to destroy both power structures and put themselves in its place. They think this is a noble crusade but we all know that it will end in tears. It will end in tears for them as they are disposed of as useful idiots and it will end in tears for the whole nation.

The Democrat party establishment, not unlike the Republican establishment, is in business, an enterprise that we conservatives should see for exactly what it is, a business. The Democrats are clever, they introduce race, women's rights, gay issues etc. into the mix to make the whole operation appear as something other than a business. For decades, before Donald Trump, the Republicans appeared as the party of business, that is, a party that existed to protect the world of business. The clever Democrats managed to appear as the party of the aggrieved, hence, the race hustles, the madness of the women's issues, the tribalism etc. all the while in reality the Democrats sold out to Wall Street and any other power organization, often funded with public monies, such as teachers unions who could contribute the money and the numbers to keep them in business.

Trump exposed much of this when he attacked the trade deals and open immigration which favored both parties whose principals got fatter and fatter as they sold America to China. We saw the reaction in both parties to the effrontery of Donald Trump in announcing the Emperor has no clothes. The rush to resurrect Joe Biden, a dead man walking, is a desperate move to divert the electorate away from these realities and onto some shiny object.

So the Democrats have chosen the lesser of two evils, a loss with Joe Biden is to be preferred to a loss, or even a victory, with Bernie Sanders. If they nominate Biden, the Sanders base revolts. If they nominate Bernie, the whole country revolts-including much of the Democrat party base we often referred to as Reagan Democrats, lunch pail Democrats, deplorables, or just plain working people. I believe the Democrat establishment would rather fight a smaller war against Bernie's base and leave fewer bodies on the field. They are acting to contain down ballot losses which they believe will be greater under Sanders than under Biden. Sanders will nationalize the election and the whole Democrat party will go down with him. Biden will be cut loose and every Democrat will run an individual, localized race with a better chance of survival.

Bernie's base will insist that this is a nationalized election and it will suck every Democrat candidate into the vortex. Win or lose, the Democrat establishment is in mortal peril. For the Democrat establishment it ain't personal, it's just business.

Wow what a Great Post.

I have the attention span of a 6 year old with severe ADD and it held me to the end.

Bernie IS a communist and even if HE maybe isn’t willing to put people out of their misery, WE KNOW that the white college kids and grads would set up death camps without BLINKING.

YES, a lot of people on the right have guns.

I grew up around gangsters. Not a whole lot of people with guns will use them in a fight.

And fear and complacency will keep others out of the fight.

300 million guns are only worth something if a lot of Patriot are willing to pull the trigger to off a human.

Not all are.

Again, Great Post. Maybe the most well written and thought out one i’ve read in a while.

FR is pretty good in the middle of the night to early mornings sometimes :)

Before the masses come :)

Not that I don’t love the masses!!

The Democratic Establishment Strikes Back

Hey Derek, you dumba$$!

There is no democatic party.

There IS a democrat party and they are not democratic, they're Marxist socialist.

[MV=PY]

"With no clear path to the nomination for anyone, thanks largely to the screwed up way in which Democrats distribute their delegates proportionally, rather than fight, Amy Klobuchar and Pete Buttigieg took whatever they were offered as payoff and quit. "

Smells like Bloomberg. He can buy the DNC - Hillary did it in the last election.

[trebb]

With Pete and Amy out so suddenly, I wish they had a LOT more early voting in their primaries...the more chaos, the better - which is kind of ironic since they’re the ones who inject chaos as a weapon...

[Elsie]

I think the Dems are lining up for 2024 anyway.

ALL their old, white guys will be over 80.

Definitely gotta groom some fresh meat by then!

(I’ll bet they now wish they had NOT have wasted all the time and effort trying to oust Trump, and used it instead to solidify the herd of cats that are mewling and hissing furiously under the Big Tent.)

[Elsie]

2024 will see the likes of an Oprah/Ellen ticket.

The ideal Dem ticket of inclusivity...

Female/Male (dressing)
Straight/Homo
Black/White
Intelligent (book club)/not so (Ellen's Game of Games)
Chubby/Skinny
Serious/Comic

Imagine how bad it will look across the country to have Milwaukee rioting.
