July Debates

Discussion in 'Politics' started by elderado, Jul 30, 2019.


  1. Refer to my post above. It is about Biden.

    Although it will come at some point, it is too early for Warren to start ripping Bernie down even thought they were together on the stage. She is still courting his voters bigtime and would rather peel them off by having them move away from Bernie before using the machete.

    However, everyone is ready to take Joe down right now or start in anyway.

    The kabuki dance sequence calls for the progressives to band together to take Bernie down first, and them move on to the progressive intramural warfare later. Can't go much past september though.

    Right. Although I got to say that I think Castro stepped into it with his last debate and really got no bounce from it.

    He was a good choice for VP on paper before the last debate but now I can’t see him as anything more than a liability unless the nominee is someone like Warren.

  3. To add to the above, you will note that Poco was pretty smart for an indian girl last night.

    As discussed, there are reasons why she does not want to do full frontal attacks on her fellow progressives this early in the game, yet she has to show that she is ballsy by ripping someone.
    So she dealt with it by going after Delaney. That was pretty smart all things considered, because Delaney will be gone and doesnt have any voters to alienate. So she used him for cannon fodder and chance to be ballsy. She played that about right.

    It's okay for a summer game. Summer gonna end sometime though.

    They have to get 1 or 2 percent in the polling. If not, they do not make it to the debates. Maybe, Steyer should have used his monies to bribe those conducting the polls. He would have easily been given 5 percent. Hillary Clinton probably, will not come out till these clowns have destroyed each other! The debates expose how bad their positions are and how the US voters will not support them. When the herd of clowns gets thinned, that is probably, when Hillary Clinton comes out to finish off whoever is left by that time! All the other Democrats running would be very, very weak and easy to beat when the time comes!

    That's what I was thinking. It doesn't seem real fair. Its rigged. So which poll's do they use? And this individual donor stuff... why can't someone (like Steyer) just come out and say they're not soliciting donors because they don't need the money.

    So lets all put on our thinking caps here and see this for what its really worth. Ultimately, the Dems are going to get the candidate that CNN/MSNBC chooses. They are. The MSM controls the polls. No, they aren't out there doing phone survey's, but they have the power nightly to brainwash millions and millions of people. They have huge influence. If they come on every night and focus on 3 or 4 candidates, and have them on, and follow them on the trail, and constantly say how good they are doing, over and over... JFK could be out there running and if he's pretty much ignored by the powers that be.... when Mr and Mrs John Q Lefty's phone rings with Quinnipiac on the other end... they are only going to respond with what they have been allowed to see. And told.

    Its all bs. It really is. We're sheep.

  7. Just flicked on the tube.

    CNN has David Gergen on there gurgling away. And he just said "the one thing that women have is moral authority and Kamala Harris brings that to the debate."

    Process that for a minute and watch the LED light on your forehead flicker back and forth between yellow and red. Kamala Harris = moral authority. wooooooooookayyyyyyy fine.

    The Democrats are now a party of upper middle class elderly white women showboating about which one feels the pain of urban minorities more than the others. It's absurd performance art. That's why Marianne Williamson gets the most applause every time.

    Snopes Issues Pre-Approval Of All Statements Made During Tonight's Democratic Debate

    U.S.—With the Democratic primary debates in full swing, many fact-checking websites are preparing to review candidates’ statements for accuracy. Thankfully, Snopes, the most unbiased fact-checking website ever, has found a way to expedite their evaluation process.

    Since their original founding in 1957 by the KGB, Snopes has gained a reputation for objectively reporting what someone’s secret motivations probably were, and what they probably really meant when they said something. More recently, they have perfected the art of determining whether a satirical article is hilarious, left-leaning comedy or divisive, conservative-leaning fake news.

    As part of their ongoing goal of being able to rush to judgment as quickly as possible, Snopes published a pre-approval of all future statements made by candidates during the Democratic debates.

    “While we understand there may be some disagreements among progressive candidates on certain issues, we know that nobody who shares our worldview would ever say anything factually untrue,” Snopes explains in their article.

    Snopes also clarified that in the event a candidate does say anything that sounds untrue/conservative, they will automatically conclude that the individual had pure intentions and meant something completely different. As a very last resort, they may change a particular rating to “mixed,” assuming some context was missing.

    At publishing, Snopes had also released a fact-check for all future statements by President Trump, rating them all as “False.”
