Klobuchar is the liberal Palin except Palin is prettier and smarter and made me swallow my vote for no-name. Like dems will swallow voting for Bindun. She doesn’t like it when she thinks people think she is dumb, which seems to be an issue with her. #dumbAmy #WhoisUrPresident

"Biden has been totally hijacked by hard-core leftist minders"

Really? Then why isn't Bernie leading in the primary process?

“Then why isn’t Bernie leading in the primary process?”

because bernie publicly declared he’s a hard core leftists and was rejected by the voters for that reason, while biden pretended he was a moderate

however, once biden became the presumptive “moderate” nominee, all of the other avowed hard-core leftist moved into his campaign as “advisors” because biden is totally senile and clueless about what is really going on and essentially now has no other function except as witless front man for the hard-core left; consequently,

1. biden “appointed” AOC as his future energy and climate change czar

2. biden “appointed” uber-anti-gunner Beto as his future gun control czar

3. biden just hired the chief public affairs officer for uber-left-wing MoveOn.org as a senior advisor

those are just the ones that they’ve publicly announced, and more of the same is EXACTLY what we could expect should biden win the presidency ...

that’s why ...

There's a YouTube personality named Jimmy Gore. He is a leftie that was a Bernie Bro until Bernie stopped fighting for the nomination. He considers Obama and Biden as bought and paid for whores for Goldman Sachs. He sees the people surrounding Biden as similar to the vested interests around Hillary.

He is more a class-based leftie fighting for the working man than the identity-based lefties that he sees surrounding Biden. His take is that the identity politics is just a cover so that people like Obama and Biden can get credit for being progressive without really helping out the working poor. His big gripe with Biden is that Biden won't go for single payer or universal Medicare.

I don't think he's being paid to spout a line. And it does make sense that made liberals who want to keep their ill-gotten gains don't want to see too much of that money siphoned off by real people. Also makes sense why they are in cahoots with the RINOs of the cheap labor express to keep the borders open.

The Bernie Bros are not happy with Biden. They see the same reports as we do and they don't see that their progressive ideas are being smuggled into the Biden campaign. They feel betrayed.

If this is all some clever plot, then the Bernie Bros will sneak out to the polls and vote for Biden, but I think they're gonna vote Trump, vote Green, or stay home.

it’s not a clever plot ... it’s simply the ultra-left moving into the power vacuum created by Biden’s senility ...

Exactly. Not immediately choosing Stacey or Kamala means Plugs must have had it in for Corn Pop back in the day, too.

[She’s not a “woman of color,” so this is probably just for show. A Jewish woman as Joe’s Veep would depress the black vote even more.]


Klobuchar’s not Jewish. To my eyes, she looks really, really Slavic.

Didn’t Joe Biden promised the VP slot to a woman of color? It’s what helped him in the South. And Amy is too lacking in likeability.

Amy K is the wrong color.
I’m hoping it’ll be Susan Rice. The Biden-Rice ticket would be The Two Stooges.
