The big ol' 2020 debate

[aitm]

I reallly don’t watch any “Debates” one, it never seems to end of being a debate. Two, whatever is said “will be done” never is, and three...it interferes with my drinking.

Odd--it has the opposite effect on me--it increases my drinking!  So, I don't watch, either.

Eat, drink and be merry, for tomorrow Trump will still be the president.

I'm just waiting to see who the Democrats' nominee will be. No sense in getting all worked up for anyone until then.

That being said, I've listened to Bernie Sanders for years on Thom Hartmann's program, every Friday, in the segment called "Brunch with Bernie." He's been consistent all this time, and I like his positions on policy. 

Also, there's this:

Chris Matthews used to annoy me back in the day when I watched television.  If Chris Matthews was running for office, I sure wouldn't vote for him.

D party stormtroopers ... aka AntiFa have rioted and destroyed public property in NYC.

Anthem of EU, UN, Corbyn and Sanders ;-)

We want violent revolution now!  White males, you have nothing to lose, but your lives in our gas chambers!

Early Iowa Caucus Guesstimate:

Three way leader contest between … Sanders, Warren and Buttigieg ... Biden and Klobuchar getting the booby prize.

2% precincts reporting.  The new Dem smartphone app totally failed, for reporting the precinct results.  The Dems had to gather the precinct results via Amish buggy and giant tractor pull.

Still a total clown car.  The Dems can't even run a legitimate election in Iowa ;-(  And they dare to say a national election with Trump is illegitimate?

Just heard .... when the precincts tried to call in the results, the phone was down.  Giggle, giggle.  Hillary is busy rewriting the results, for Bloomberg.

Actual report on Bernie or Biden clown car crash ...

When I participated full on, with politics, in 1988 Colorado caucus.  It was better than this mess.  My wife and I were delegates all the way to the Colorado state convention (but not the national convention).  Our problem was, being young prominent Dems, and with a Dem governor, we were invited with the other activists to the Governor's Mansion to meet the governor.  We were late, and didn't meet the governor, because my wife couldn't get done getting dressed on time.  All I got for all my effort was my Dukakis watch (better than a t-shirt).

Feb 3 Iowa - still just crickets
Feb 11 New Hampshire
Feb 22 Nevada
Feb 29 South Carolina
Mar 3 14 more states

Failed app made by former Hillary supporters.  Maybe they should "learn to code"?

[Baruch]

Nevada Dems say, they aren't using the same app as Iowa.

Partial results released:

Buttigieg - 27% surprising (he correctly announced himself as winner yesterday)
Sanders - 25% expected

Warren - 18% expected
Biden - 16% disappointed
Klobuchar - 13% expected
=====
Total = 99%

Sanders is expected to take New Hampshire.  Biden and Warren have to make a better showing in New Hampshire, Nevada and South Carolina to stay funded.

In 2016, in a much closer race, Hillary and Sanders both got 49% in Iowa, with Hillary squeaking out a win after a recount.  Sanders went on to win New Hampshire by a large margin.  In 2000, McCain was defeated by 11% margin by George W in South Carolina, McCain's money dried up.  George W got labeled the "comeback kid".

None of this matters, since the GOP senate has released the Kraken and told Trump he can do as he likes and steal the coming election, and they'll help him do it.

USA is illegitimate.  Long Live King George III!

All Republican votes are by dead people.  The Dems never do that kind of thing ;-)

All Republican votes are by dead people.

I guess that's why they want to take away our health care so there will be more dead people to vote for them.

Don't give them ideas!

That's what i was told when I suggested that Trump might try to plant land mines along the southern border.

And guess what? Now he wants to legalize land mines again...
