"He told me he didn't believe a woman could be President"
This is junior high school quality stuff. Is this really the best that the establishment has to throw against him?
Meanwhile his response "On a good day, my wife likes me" and then goes right back to discussing impeachment. When pressed for why she's still talking about 2016, he says "That's a good question. Ask her."
LOL
Let me add; "she is a Russian asset":
Rep. Tulsi Gabbard sues Hillary Clinton for alleged 'Russian asset' smear in 2020 Democratic presidential contest, claiming $50 million in damages https://cnb.cx/2NMtwc7
And good for Bernie.
Maybe women are upset by Clinton's loss, but the more she says, the scary she sounds if she had won.
Tulsi is proving that she really is more like a republican than a democrat by filing a frivolous lawsuit. This is Devin Nunes style.
Are Hillary and Warren also "more like republicans" when they smear Bernie?
No, I think Republicans love Bernie because he is less likely to beat Trump. And they benefit even if he loses because his bros would make it harder for the eventual nominee to get elected. You don't think Trump and Republicans favor Bernie because they think he would make a better POTUS do you?
I'm not a Bernie fan, but I'm willing to admit people really underestimate him. He has good potlical skills.
I don't really agree with this. People underestimate the power of Bernie's message. Unlike the mythology presented by many, poll after poll show a large majority of Americans think the wealthy should pay a lot more in taxes and that the wealthy get over on everyone else big time. (this idea that poor people are against taxing wealthy because they hope to be wealthy one day is completely unfounded).
In my opinion Bernie makes a lot of unforced errors that undercut him. Number 1 is calling himself a socialist for no damned reason. 1. He isn't one. 2. If he is one it is only in the sense of some European political reinterpretation of the word because they don't have the same taboo over that word that the US does. 3. He could have argued everything that he does and not be saddled with that baggage. If he just stuck to policy and didn't say "socialist", he'd have a lot more votes today from people who grew up being afraid of that word.
Another minor example was when he came out for allowing felons in prison to vote (not former felons who have done their time). What the hell was that for? It's not going to happen and it is deeply unpopular. You have to have the discipline to not talk about minor issues where you go very much against the grain.
Bernie is genuine. Bernie has been Bernie for a long time. He has a message that appeals to a lot of people. I see why you say he has skills, but if they were so great, he'd be leading this thing right now. His standing in the polls with the name recognition he had and coming off getting 43% on the anybody but Clinton vote is actually pretty poor. I think a lot of Warren's popularity in the summer is that people hoped she'd be Bernie with better political skills, but she turned out to be fake Bernie, so her popularity plummeted.
Frankly none of the Democratic candidates are great candidates. They all have major flaws. Of course, they will be running against a candidate who has a lot of major flaws.
