Even if the narrative is painted that way, then the logical conclusion would be to go further left.
Further right, just vote for the republican.
Fuck this country dude. This was our last chance. Here's to more deportations, more people dying because of no health care, more people drowning in debt, more racial injustices being ignored, more wars killing brown people in other countries. But at least white liberals will be happy. My disdain for whites, specifically white people who pretend to be allies grows everyday.
Good thing those young people are so reliable as a voting base...
Yeah, I don't know where "Trump is going to win by default" stuff is coming from. A lot of voters are showing up and it will only get crazier in November.
I got banned from Sanders For President for asking why he thought it was a good idea not to visit Selma lol.
This topic made me realize that maybe I'm not a Democrat. Up until 2015 I thought I was a Republican. From 2015 till this primary I thought I was a Democrat.
I'm neither. I think I'm just going to do what I always should have - not be married to a party but instead support policy. If someone doesn't share the same policy beliefs as me, regardless of party, I cannot support them.
And don't come at me that not voting for Biden is a vote for Trump. I held my nose in 2016 but I'm tired of teams.

Moderates Mayor Pete and Amy are in the hunt. A dream scenario is Warren.
I don't get the enthusiasm arguments. They aren't voting...how excited can they be?
Will Biden even serve a second term? Or are we going to be having an open primary again in 4 years even if Biden wins in November?
Biden signals to aides that he would serve only a single term
Advisers weigh the merits of a one-term pledge by the 77-year-old former vice president.www.politico.com
Now listen here Jack, Joe Biden is running for Senator of the United States and will be around forever.
Gretchen Whitmer would be my guess.
Lujan Grisham for a real darkhorse.
I'd say fuck it and go with Sherrod Brown but its just not actually worth a senate seat lost that'd probably never come back or at least not for ages.
The people born after the 1980's don't vote by and large.
I guess, but like if that is what is gonna sink him against our own attack ads that can clearly point out Trump admitting sexual assault, being impeached, getting rid of the pandemic response team, and a whole host of other things then I dunno dude
This was in the context that he might be going the way of Reagan in his second term. Just push the policies through to him and tell him how great his legacy and or juice box will be if he signs it.
Hopefully. However, he didn't do anything when these camps and immigration policies existed under Obama, but hopefully he will be better about it now.
Why is every criticism of Biden labeled as right wing
It is good news indeed, but tell that to the aww shucks crowd because their guy didn't win.
"Vote blue no matter who 2020"
We can try again for a leftist in 2024
Add r/politics to this. There was literally not a single thread about Biden winning any state on the night of Super Tuesday on the 1st page of r/politics lmao.
The worry comes across as completely disingenuous when you supported a self-described Socialist and showed no willingness to compromise on any other left-wing position in the name of "electability".
Yeah, bigger turnout almost always helps Dems. And think most people don't fuck with primaries
This is kind of a disgusting take.
It is hard for a lot of people. People work long hours at bad jobs. People have kids they can't afford to have looked after. People don't have means of transportation to get to a polling station because its miles away.
Denial of voter suppression is some shitty stuff. Regardless of who you support. It's built into our electoral system and has been benefiting the Republican for decades. Next tell me how voter ID laws aren't bad.
The world needs some people to not give up on it, I plan on being one of them.
Seeing how Ilhan got treated the moment she bucked the liberal hegemony, I have a feeling those two will get the same treatment as Bernie when they're in the same place as he is.
Young people and independents can vote in (most wrt independents) primaries and they didn't show up for him in large enough numbers. Relying on young people is a terrible strategy for American elections
Just the right wing conspiracy theories are labeled right wing conspiracy theories. "Hiding Biden" is a right wing conspiracy theory.
Kamala is from California, as safe a seat as you can get (2018 Senate election general ended up being two Democrats). While Massachusetts is a blue state, they have been known to throw curveballs and do like their "moderate" Republican now and again, especially for governor, which specifically got us burned in 2010. No problem with California, and furthermore Kamala would be well poised to run for president again vastly stronger in either 2024 or 2028, while Warren is going to be too old by then (yes, Bernie/Biden, but they're too old too).
And Biden is doing very well in the suburbs- which was key to dems winning Michigan in 2018.
So old people come out to vote against a "socialist." Let's see them come out to vote in the general.
Just like ST, the actual results today paint an incredibly good picture for our chances in November.
'what i think' the article does it show you a mainstream outlet (of many) talking about the obvious perception that Biden's campaign is one of limited exposure. this was widely discussed and accepted last year before it was weaponized by the right more recently. As soon as the right weaponized it, people like you called it a conspiracy and started pilling on posters here who acknowledged the very obvious, reasonable strategy by the campaign.
All I'm asking is that you stop acting like its some pizza-gate shit to say that the campaign would rather see him ride along on name recognition than increase the odds he's hurt by a gaffe. that shouldn't be the least bit controversial to someone who isn't a reactionary.
Man he got 82 votes in 18-29, that's a big percentage.
We've already seen a similar game played. People come out to vote against Trump. That was the story of the mid-terms. If the same energy flows this year, it'll be a big turnout.
Joe Biden tells activist, 'You should vote for Trump,' over criticism of Obama deportations
At a town hall, 2020 candidate Joe Biden told an attendee that he would not put an end to all deportations, prompting protest.

Such an inspiring candidate, honestly.
