The smart move is to push him through the primaries then come November he gets the majority of the black vote regardless of his past sins. If the primaries are reduced to who can satisfy the most lunatics the dems get beat easily come November. A sane candidate can beat Trump and other than Bloomberg, Mayor Pete and Tulsi, the rest haven't had a rational thought in years.
Andrew Yang would be a great candidate in the General - but the corporatist Dems would never countenance that.
And he’s low tier when it comes to pandering. There’s more than 50 social welfare spending proposals up on that debate stage. And counting.
1000 a month to all Americans and free healthcare to all Americans would cost more than any other candidates policies
I think it’s a race. And they could tax the top 1% at 100% and not pay for half of it. Kamala Harris at one point floated the idea of $500/month UBI. Societies don’t offer things like free college and free medical care and free child care and free pre-K without a National Sales Tax and a 40% tax rate on the middle class. And then there’s all these other Candidate program proposals like subsidized rent for anyone whose rent >30% of their pay, guaranteed Federal jobs, slavery reparations, green new deal, student debt forgiveness, free health care for illegal aliens, and on and on.
Interesting that Bloomberg - who just showed up and has never been in a debate- tied in the latest polls with Klobuchar (UsualTard's choice) and Harris who have been chugging away at it for months. That's gotta piss them off bigtime, so how can it be a bad thing? Former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, who officially entered the primary race this week, is tied for fifth place at 3 percent with Sens. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.) and Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.).
