Frankly, I don't blame her.
AOC continues to impress me.
I honestly am glad Biden is likely to get the nominee, I'd rather it be Warren and felt there weren't a lot of great options besides her but he has been my 2nd pick for awhile now.
Of course I also am of the mind that Hilary would have been a decent president with great instinct and is not nearly as awful as she is made out to be... so my views are probably in a minority here.

Goddamn Trump must be scared as hell to make this tweet lol
He would need to line up all the pardons first, including for himself. That takes time and also he's probably still in denial.
All I remember is wandering around and obsessing over wallpaper!
Between this asshole insisting the virus a hoax intended to make him look bad and his asshole Treasury Sec saying just this morning that protecting the economy is the admin's top priority there isn't enough LOLs for this statement.
A couple of hours later, he'll be screaming about it being a hoax.
His speech will include
•Uniting to fight the virus
•ask not to politicize the situation
•tax cuts
•lie about a vaccine
•lie about the handling of the situation
Pundits and republican politicians will lap it up
By tomorrow
•Claim it's a democrat hoax
•Dems are trying to crush the economy
•R politicians will run away from reporters to avoid q about Trump contradicting himself
This has been their play every single time.
In news other than how much of a fuckup Trump is:
We should get the final call tonight I assume?
We should get the final call tonight I assume?
He's just pissed the media is holding him to task for his god awful organizing and response to this situation. As if calling the media out is going to get them to call off the dogs.
AOC might get some 🐍 🐀 emojis her way if she isn't careful about what she says.
It gets worse. Team Warren approached Sanders' team after it didn't look like she was going to win. And they didn't seem to have any interest in teaming up.
Fixed that for you
Her demeanor when she talked about Bernie and his supporters hinted at some deeper issues. I truly feel like this campaign did serious damage to their relationship. Again, Bernie supporters should look at what he's done to someone he said was a friend. This is why he struggles to build a coalition and gain allies
At this point he might as well stay provided he sticks to his issues. We have a WI SC race in April that will really need juiced up turnout to win. Biden will get the magic number eventually anyway so he'll officially be it in a matter of 2-3 months.
Is this a pivot??
you can't really say CV is the enemy of the world and then go back to saying it's no worse than the flu...
Somewhere, Van Jones prepares to sound off on how tonight is the night that Trump finally became president.
He's just going to throw out some vague bullshit lines about how everything is under control, everything is being handled perfectly, their response is flawless, things will be better somehow, blah blah.
Just "We will soon fix it" without any mention of how they will fix it.

The great thing about pivots is that you just need one more step to be right back where you started.
Honestly wonder if anyone is still pedaling the "red states shouldn't count!" crap if Biden's winning Washington and won Michigan, a purple state that's the first step towards the most obvious path to the presidency, while Bernie's only win last night came from North Dakota.
Yup. Then tried to be slick about an alliance only when he started losing big because of course.
Where is the media intentionally standing against those things? By reporting on the botched HHS op in California that likely led to spreading? That Trump keeps downplaying the severity of this? That he's more interested in bailing out industry than people?
The only people not unified are people who work at the White House.
I dunno about y'all, but I'm stocking up on tonic water, gin, and goldfish crackers and playing Animal Crossing / FF7R / Doom / PSO2 (soon, please) until this whole thing blows over. Pity nobody makes good MMOs anymore or I might not even notice a quarantine.
My wife and I celebratedthe end of civilization Wednsday with some Indian food tonight, probably the last dining out we'll be doing for a while and I'm glad we supported a local Asian restaurant. Super tasty.
I'm more likely to be violently ill listening to him speak for three minutes than I am with the coronavirus. I'd rather lick any surface on a public bus.
Oh yeah, new season of Ducktales starts April 4th too. Yay!

Jesus. Why does Trump think this dude knows literally everything?? Crazy.
Yeah, well "Hillary/Biden only win red states, Bernie wins blue states!" was also a wrong argument on top of being a stupid one.
Of the Clinton states:
Biden - ME, MA, MN, VA, WA*
Bernie - NH, NV, CA, CO, VT
Haven't had their primaries yet - IL (3/17), HI (4/4), NY, MD, CT, RI, DE (all 4/28), OR (5/19), NJ, NM, DC (6/2)
So Biden and Bernie have each won the exact number of true blue states.
Of the Obama 2012-Trump states:
Biden - MI
Bernie - IA (kind of)
Haven't had their primaries yet - FL, OH (3/17), WI (4/7), PA (4/28)
NC only went blue for Obama in 08 while Texas hasn't gone blue since 76, but both are competitive this year and Biden carried both. AZ (3/17) and GA (3/24) are the other states I'd put in that category that have yet to vote.
Tbh I expect this to very quickly slant in Biden's favor.
I always like to remind people that Hillary beat Bernie 53/47 in our non-binding primary in 2016.
We're another caucus --> primary state that Bernie can't run up the score in anymore.
brb running to the store
(Animal Crossing goes without saying next week)
