There is not anyone currently running in the Democrat primary that can beat President Trump, so choose another priority.

They want someone "who can beat Donald Trump."

They are delusional. Absolutely, pathetically delusional.

To counter their insanity, here's a picture of a car I spotted at my favorite coffee shop this morning. A bit of a breath of fresh air!

As a political realist, Sanders as the Democratic nominee will likely result in a huge Republican victory in November and many good things to come. However the reality that an avowed socialist who has in his life embraced communism , communist thugs and criminal regimes will be the “Democratic” nominee, probably receive 45% of the popular vote and will come relatively close to actually leading this once great country is vile and disgusting. It means the country no longer has a common consensus of core values that unite it.

Results delayed, CNN wondering what’s going on? Talking about holding onto to hard ballots. Hell, looks like Florida 2000. Love it.

So are there any voters who DON’T care if their candidate can beat the opposing candidate?

This thing about “beating Trump is important” has become a meaningless mantra.

Of course, you want your candidate to beat the other candidate, DUH!!!

The fact that electability is an issue shows how weak their field of candidates is.

[snip] Klobuchar’s team is “feeling good” right now about their results – they were unexpectedly viable in satellite caucuses today in Arizona and Florida, both with large turnouts despite not doing much organizing in those states. They’re also unexpectedly viable in some Des Moines suburbs so they’re all positive right now. [/snip]

[snip] Pre-caucus polls suggested that Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders might have a narrow lead, but any of the top four candidates — Sanders, former Vice President Joe Biden, Warren and former South Bend, Indiana, Mayor Pete Buttigieg — could score a victory in Iowa’s unpredictable and quirky caucus system as organizers prepared for record turnout. Sen. Amy Klobuchar, who represents neighboring Minnesota, was also claiming momentum, while outsider candidates including entrepreneur Andrew Yang, billionaire activist Tom Steyer and Hawaii Rep. Tulsi Gabbard could be factors. [/snip]

That’s adorable.

Health care I can understand... Climate change and income inequality? Seriously? Is that what real Americans will be voting for in November?
