Sorry Hairy,

You helped create these nuts.

Dem party is dead.

I must say, I am surprised Bernie was able to keep his fanbase after his 2016 sellout.

I forgot to mention,

Thank you Hairy for the Senate Nuc option.

Your conservative prowess is pure genius.

Bernie got a vacation house and a $100,000 in 2016. Oh, and a private jet to all of Hillary’s campaign events.

When your base has the attention span of Horse-poop gnats, you can reclaim them anytime you want. Just shovel another load out and they will gather round.

My pick for Hillary’s VP is Michelle Obama. Hillary agrees behind the scenes to one term it and Michelle is set up. Get the black voters out with Barry agreeing to go on the campaign trail as well.’

They had to clear the deck of Biden with the primaries and let the candidates kill each other off.

My backup VP for Hillary is... Mitt Romney. He does Independent and pulls a Loserman VP slot.

Correct. One other thing I forgot is that AOC and most of the SQUAD endorsed Bernie. I can totally see AOC get a bullhorn and stand on top of a car basically calling for rioting after someone else wins the brokered convention not named Bernie. The DNC needs to figure how to control them before they venture into this possible endeavor

And I also believe the Rats thinking is that they would be better off long-term if Trump is re-elected, so they are taking a dive. And hoping by the time his second term is done, that things will be in such bad shape, that there’s no way they will lose in 2024, even with a radical.

Not far-fetched, if the Rats really are interested in winning in 2020.

Not to mention his wifeys shadey dealings in that college with the lucrative Lakeside acreage seemed to be brushed under the rug.

"and we’ve always come up with good candidates."

I'm not into communist politics, so I'm wondering, if their Convention goes to "brokered" from broken, can or will they start all over with all new candidates, or do they have to stay with the original clowns?

Yes. Mitt would go independent and be the VP pick.

Globalists best shot.

Here’s Klobuchar saying she’s okay for a brokered convention.

NOTE they use “CONTESTED CONVENTION.” So someone has gone out and poll-tested the term brokered convention. That’s backroom deals and cigar smoking elites picking our nominee. “Contested” = it’s just a contest. Anyone can win. How fair!

I think the Rats want to take a dive, and then hope Trump’s second term is such a disaster that they’ll cruise in 2024.

FiveThirtyEight has the chances of a brokered convention at 2 in 5 and has that as their ‘leading candidate’!
