I got loads of likes when I said Biden is literally exactly the same as Trump, this is proof everyone hates him
Right here:
The author is worried that the Ukraine affair could affect Biden's popularity. That may or may not happen, but it's obvious that Trump would attack any candidate anyway.
It's definitely some sort of cognitive issue...
I'm not going to go ahead and diagnose him...
but...
dementia
The TWITTERVerse!!!! Where all the Bernie stans obviously got trapped in yesterday and where unable to get up their ass to go vote.
Its for sure not solely the only reason - her gender played a far bigger role than anyone will give legit credit to. But, hatred for NAFTA has been a huge thing for the rust belt. Obama in particular used this as a weapon against Clinton in the '08 primaries to very great affect. Both Trump and Bernie used anti-NAFTA sentiment to great affect again in '16.
Should have posted actual article it's all in there. It's a pain to get it out on my phone. https://www.vox.com/platform/amp/po...e-biden-win-ukraine?__twitter_impression=true
Honestly? Joe Biden really hasn't. Joe does wonders appealing to scared WWC voters, but the top of the ticket was Obama. Hes the one who got all the vetting.
Joe and his family have enough business interests in foreign countries where we are gonna see investigations, even if they don't lead into anything, get launched both here and abroad. Ukraine already announced an investigation into Joe & Hunter a week ago. You're gonna see stuff come out from the Biden's business interest in China as well. And Trump fears no retaliation for doing so - we impeached him for trying and it didn't work!
In all honesty, our best hope is the economy tanking and entering a recession. And I say this as someone who has no intention on voting for Joe Biden in the GE. This is the 'safe' choice Americans wanted right? Have at it! Enjoy Trump term 2.

Significantly better
Well up.
Don't know how good of evidence you want but at least I saw #IdontlikeBiden and #BernieOrBust was trending all day today on Twitter in the US (not tailored tweets).
Bernie was polling ahead before Klobuchar and Buttigieg dropped.How popular is Biden in the Rust Belt compared to Sanders? Would think his support for NAFTA wouldn't help there.

Out of curiosity, what positions of Bidens do you think are worse than Trumps or worse than what we have now?
Sitting here earlier today, I was thinking about different candidates positions and I realized of the major candidates from a week ago, I probably knew the least about Biden's supposed positions. That comes in part because he almost never talks about them, focusing a lot more on continuing the legacy of the Obama years instead of what he'll actually do. I decided I should at least know though if he's our guy so I went looking. On just a few of the major issues:
Child Care: Biden is for universal free Pre-K for kids who are 3-4.
Education: Biden is for two free years of community college or technical schooling. He also supports doubling the maximum value of Pell Grants and a student loan forgiveness program which will make it so you don't have to pay anything back on student loans if you are making under 25,000 a year. He also proposes a cap on the maximum amount annually at 5% of your income over 25,000 a year with full forgiveness after 20 years. So if you make 50,000 a year, only 5% of 25,000 is your maximum yearly contribution. That's 1,250 a year. He is also for using federal funds to even out the funding for all schools so that those in higher property tax areas don't receive more resources.
Environment: Ensure the U.S. achieves a 100% clean energy economy and reaches net-zero emissions no later than 2050 . He plans to do this by focusing on wind and solar energy.
Guns: He supports universal background checks, a gun buyback program, and an assault weapon ban.
Immigration: Supports DACA and DAGA path to citizenship. Wants to end workplace raids. Plans to increase worker VISAs. Restore the asylum system and end family separation. End for profit detention centers.
Reparations: Is open to it and has promised to have a committee to look into how this could be applied.
Minimum Wage: Supports a $15.00 an hour minimum wage
Family Leave: Supports 12 weeks of paid family leave
Sick Leave: Supports universal paid sick leave, though details on how much are scarce
Iran: Will rejoin the Iran Nuclear deal
Israel/Palestine: Will support a two state solution
Criminal Justice Reform: Believes nobody should be jailed for drug use alone, wants users to be sent for treatment if anything. Eliminate mandatory minimums. Eliminate the death penalty. Eliminate cash bail. A full end to private prisons. Guaranteed housing for those leaving prison. Supports full restoration of voting rights upon release.
Marijuana: Complete decriminalization and wants to release and expunge the record of anyone in jail for it now. True legalization to be left to the states.
Internet Access: Wants to invest 20 billion in funding to expand rural broadband access.
Statehood: Is for making both Washington DC and Puerto Rico States.
LGBTQ Issues: Supports Gay marriage, the Equality Act, and Transgender military service
Health Care: Ensure a public option is created which covers primary care without co-payments. Make sure those who would qualify for medicaid if their state would only expand coverage are offered premium free coverage on the public option. Plans to offer premium tax credits which will significantly lower costs for those who have insurance they would keep. Make in-network/out of network determined solely by location and not the doctor you see to avoid surprise billing. Repeal the law stopping medicare from negotiating drug prices. Allow consumers to import drugs from out of the country, stopping the current issue where often drugs are far more expensive in the US. Protect abortion rights. Restore federal funding to Planned Parenthood.
Some will argue that many of these are half measures compared to what Bernie wants to do. They're right on many of them. They are measures though. Every single one of them if far more than the Republicans want and we will get under Trump. Even better, these are mostly pretty safe positions to take in the Democratic Party today, thanks in part to Bernie's pushing the party left in recent years. If we can win the senate, these are all actually pretty achievable. And if Biden got half of this done, he'd have far and away the most successful presidency of my lifetime. Bernie first got into the race in 2016 to try to push the party left. He didn't think he could win, he was just trying to get some concessions. That's what winning looked like at the time. Look at that list and tell me he didn't win. Now if you actually care about Bernie's revolution, let's go out in November and get it done. Then once this is the new normal, we can work to push that new normal to the left. The next time someone tells you there's no difference between Trump and Biden, go ahead and show them this.
Embarassing tbhHonestly? Joe Biden really hasn't. Joe does wonders appealing to scared WWC voters, but the top of the ticket was Obama. Hes the one who got all the vetting.

Oh man, I can't wait to see how all this twitter support turns out on Super Tuesday.Don't know how good of evidence you want but at least I saw #IdontlikeBiden and #BernieOrBust was trending all day today on Twitter.
Also, it was a lifetime ago, but Biden trounced Paul Ryan in the VP debate back in 12. Admittedly that was with 8 less years of brain decay, but he could well be better in a 1 on 1 debate. Being more consistently engaged will give his mind less room to wander
Trump, who also supported the Iraq War?It just amazes me that Democrats are on the verge of nominating yet another Presidential candidate who voted in favor of the Iraq War. Trump is going to bring that up over and over just like he did with Hillary.
True lolOh man, I can't wait to see how all this twitter support turns out on Super Tuesday.
Boy the Trump election team is going have a field day make ads with Biden telling them to vote for him.Right up until someone asks a pretty damning question of his voting record or asks about Hunter. Then he immediately gets angry and tells them to vote for Trump.
Did he actually bring that up over and over again?It just amazes me that Democrats are on the verge of nominating yet another Presidential candidate who voted in favor of the Iraq War. Trump is going to bring that up over and over just like he did with Hillary.
so is #my600poundlifeDon't know how good of evidence you want but at least I saw #IdontlikeBiden and #BernieOrBust was trending all day today on Twitter in the US (not tailored tweets).
Lol way to edit the words that I wrote to fit your narrative. If I saw someone limping onto the stage at a campaign rally I'd be very concerned about it and rightly speculate that there's something wrong with their leg. In this case I'm seeing symptoms and signs that are concerning and speculating that there might be something afoot. I'm just being honest here, I'm not playing a game where I ignore what's right in front of me to make everyone feel better.
Trump actively campaigns for Bernie and has never even once attacked him. If we're talking about candidates who haven't been vetted, "rape essay" would likely be among the mildest shit thrown Bernie's way in the GE by Trump. Literally every evidence we have points to the GOP being incredibly confident about the oppo they have on him.
Twitter is irrelevant to the electorate.Don't know how good of evidence you want but at least I saw #IdontlikeBiden and #BernieOrBust was trending all day today on Twitter in the US (not tailored tweets).
I don't think Biden will struggle that much but I do think it's funny you're taking strategy from the opposition on how to beat them.Trump actively campaigns for Bernie and has never even once attacked him. If we're talking about candidates who haven't been vetted, "rape essay" would likely be among the mildest shit thrown Bernie's way in the GE by Trump.

Bernie or burst
I actually kinda like Twitter for news and info on various stuff I follow but I don't partake in discussions on it really. Facebook can fuck right off though.I want to vote for a candidate who will ban Twitter and Facebook.
C'mon now, we should have learned from yesterday that Twitter/Reddit/etc are not indicative of the opinions of the majority of voters.Don't know how good of evidence you want but at least I saw #IdontlikeBiden and #BernieOrBust was trending all day today on Twitter in the US (not tailored tweets).
It just amazes me that Democrats are on the verge of nominating yet another Presidential candidate who voted in favor of the Iraq War. One of the big reasons Obama was so popular was his opposition to it. Trump is going to bring up that vote over and over just like he did with Hillary.
The jokes write themselves here.Trump has gone on record as saying he would've lost to Bernie in '16.
Up up up

Counterpoint: You would think the impeachment saga over the last 5-6 months would dissuade Democrats/Independents from voting for Biden since there's so much ammo for Republicans to use, but yesterday proved that narrative wrong.The author is worried that the Ukraine affair could affect Biden's popularity. That may or may not happen, but it's obvious that Trump would attack any candidate anyway.
