President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

You're right, but the campaign staff who sent Bernie out like that is Bernie. He is very high on his own supply. All pols are to some extent, but he's got it bad.

 

The sad thing is - it shouldn't matter, but it does and will - and you owe it to your followers to do everything to win. Policy - like history - is written by winners.

 

His eyes are almost focused.

 

Agrees.

 

Putting that bandage on is the first thing Bernie's accomplished in his political life.

 

Oh, hell I hope they both run and one of them wins the primary. If one does, Doug Jones has a legit chance to win.

 

Sanders has no real policy proposals that aren't basically part of the past three Democratic party platforms. He's got an image and an attitude. And that's OK! Being the gadfly on an ideological pole of one's party in Congress is a time-honored and useful role. But the President can't be a gadfly.

 

Is that bandage to cover a cut caused by a fall from MS? People are talking.

 

Or a shitfly.

 

For your post to be accurate, Sanders would have to be the gadfly of the Independents.
