I didn't know Joe Biden was SUCH a swamp monster!

Journal by Gaaark

Interesting info on how big a scum Biden is, and why maybe Trump may win again.
If they don't dump Biden, Trump will ROAST HIS ASS and win. Again.

Are they THAT STUPID to push him forward?

    I don't see how that's disagreement. Sanders was more appealing to the center than Clinton, and would have undoubtedly done better against Trump, almost certainly won; had he not been kneecapped in the primaries by the DNC cheating.

    Don't let Bernie fool you, he claims to be a socialist but he's not. He's just an idiot. A nice old idiot that doesn't rub his hands together with glee at the thought of dropping bombs on poor people in other countries.

    An idiot? You are entitled to your opinion, but I don't think the people of Vermont would have elected an "idiot" to the senate for 20 years. Sanders successfully fought for my pension, taking time to come and support us when we weren't even his constituents. And I couldn't disrespect his courage in travelling down South to protest for civil rights in the 1960s. He risked his skin for his fellow man.

      He's a cut above many of the other possibles, yes. I'm actually quite fond of the old coot.

      But what else can you call someone who takes relatively centrist positions then mis-labels them as 'socialist' which stops a lot of those middle of the road voters that he might otherwise reach to immediately stop listening?

    It is the polls. He and his team knows that after years, and decades, of Republicans and Democratic establishments using the word "socialism" for policies they don't like, people who like some of those policies start responding to the word socialism. This really shouldn't surprise them at all. And, it is literally so bad that their pollsters keep telling them to stop using the word at all, because it increases support for a policy among a growing group of constituents. Not surprising that a social democrat, who gets vilified that way anyway, wants to take the bump in the polls he will get from using the term.
