    Wishful thinking from Bernie. For fucks sake:

    politics is showmanship, not an intellectual endeavor.

    I fucking hate that, but it is the immutable truth.

    You NEED a charismatic leader to win. Biden needs to fuck off.

    I will ALWAYS cast my vote to most effectively suppress the republican traitor filth. But Biden’s a goner.

      Exactly. I cannot fucking believe he can say with a straight face that it’s not an entertainment contest. It’s the biggest American Idol contest there is and sure as shit isn’t a job interview.

      It seems like the establishment is hell bent on making the choice Biden or Harris and Harris might be the only person less likely to win.

      If by goner, you mean you’re not voting for him- then this is contradictory.

      Incorrect.

      You are the reason conservatives win elections, because you tell Democrats not to vote for Gore because he’s boring or Hillary because she’s ill, or Biden because he’s old.

      None of these irrelevant insults are stopping these people from doing their job.

          Don’t worry. They’re obviously gaslighting you. You undermined their entire argument and yet, they persist. How odd.

          Loudly proclaiming a specific, unpopular fact is the opposite of burying my head in the sand.

          You’re upset because you’ve been called out for burying your head in the sand.

          The bandwagon is easy and comfortable and wrong here.

          Bernie is right.
