while you may convert some trump voters you'll also lose a lot of black and women voters who wont feel motivated to come to the polls

I'm pretty sure that my parents voted Republican in the past but they both voted for Hilary and will both vote for whoever is the Dem nominee.

Not sure what they will do in the primary, though. It is probably too early to know. I don't know who I am going to vote for in the primary yet (probably not Joe). I could see them leaning Biden at this point, though.

I think that is just a hot taek.

Real talk: the majority of Americans hate Trump and cannot wait to shit can him next November. The base is going to be plenty fired up and ready to rumble.

So you're saying we don't have to settle for Biden then and can first have a primary and pick anyone we want since they're all in. Cool.

Sure thing, as long as we all support the eventual nominee. As I implied before, all I personally care about next year is removing Trump from office and saving RBG's seat for the libz.

The economy scares me. It’s doing really well and pessimistic me thinks it will crash after a Democrat is elected and nothing will get done after 2020.

Don't worry man, if a democrat gets elected in 2020 and they don't take the senate, nothing will get done no matter what.

Voting for whoever says they'll wield executive power like it's a goddamn flaming sword. Go full trump and make the courts deal with it. Only way they'll get anything done.

Getting rod of McConnell is just as important as getting rid of Drumpf.

"Cheif" is trending on Twitter. I'm sure you can guess why.

My insane parents are democrats who voted for Trump that will 100% vote for Biden


My Parents are also Democrats and did not vote for Hillary in '16 (Mom voted Trump because she likes reality TV too much and my Dad voted for Gary Johnson for reasons I can't quite fathom) They will both would 100% vote for Biden as well.


Knew a girl who was a huge Bernie supporter who then voted for Johnson in Pennsylvania. I'm still not sure if she understands what a ridiculously terrible decision it was. Thankfully, she no longer lives in PA so she can't help ruin things this time.

There seems to be s strategy in the far right circles to suggest the “both sides” comment is a lie and was never stated.

They know that’s a major reelection problem.
On a scale of 1 to Chris Brown, how pissed is he?

Fairly important demographic in terms of actual voters and $$$$
I know what you're asking yourself and the answer is yes. I have a nick name for my penis. Its called the Octagon, but I also nick named my testes - my left one is James Westfall and my right one is Doctor Kenneth Noisewater.

Biden does very well with African-Americans, particularly women. He's definitely got problem with women under 40, and deservedly so.

But everyone in this field has issues with certain demographics.

Stolen Fromm Dave Weigel’s twitter feed.

Warren explaining the wealth tax: "How many people here own a home?" Most hands go up. "You’ve been paying a wealth tax for years. They just call it a property tax. I just want their tax to include the diamonds, the yachts, and the Rembrandts."


I forget if I had #1 but she’s moving into that spot for me I think.

Thankfully my parents live in NJ so it didn't win up mattering, but I know a few people in PA that voted 3rd party and hate Trump. Horrible decisions.

I took it to mean she wants the tax to extend to the wealth that lets people afford such extravagance.
