    This is why I laugh whenever people talk about him running in 2020.

    But yeah, he's taken care of himself.

    Yes, her husband was president.

    Having a prince that never takes the throne, does not make a dynasty.

    She believed she was going to win, because of the support she had at the DNC. Such support, that you can make the case of collusion.

    Yeah, they run heavily on the Clinton name, because a lot of people have fond memories of Bill's presidency. It was the last president before neocons wanted to live to the con in their name. As McCain in 1999, if you think this is liberal angst against neocons.

    I love posting this, because people forget that the current political climate is not the norm. This is a fairly new development that is only going into its third president. Here is the GOP platform from the year that would lead to neocons taking over the GOP:

    http://www.presidency.ucsb.edu/ws/?pid=25849

    We meet at a remarkable time in the life of our country. Our powerful economy gives America a unique chance to confront persistent challenges. Our country, after an era of drift, must now set itself to important tasks and higher goals. The Republican Party has the vision and leadership to address these issues.

    Our platform is uplifting and visionary. It reflects the views of countless Americans all across this country who believe in prosperity with a purpose — who believe in Renewing America's Purpose. Together.

    This platform makes clear that we are the party of ideas. We are the party that follows its bold words with bold deeds.
    That sounds downright progressive...

    I thought Romney was Bane? Makes me want to do politicians as Batman characters... off topic... cannot resist...

    Hillary - Enchantress (needed the satanic angle and wanted someone who plays the hero at times.)
    Trump - Scarecrow (Not going by looks obviously and staying away from the memes. Leaning heavily on the fear toxin. Injustice fans calling for the joker... it's not canonical!!!)
    Banon - Talon (before the court of owls saga)
    Schumer - The Weeper (lulz)
    Bill - Bat-Mite (to Hillary's batman)

    I said bat-mite... am done...

    This is much better, but I have to say that the Batman villains are too good to be compared to the rookies of the Trump administration. From a professional point of view to the humane aspect of how they got there.

    Still, good choice

    I always figured the right could benefit from self-introspection and internal criticism, like Democrats often do. Their non-stop facade of complete solidarity to their own always seems to end up in rifts and schisms when the internal pressure finally becomes too much to hold in.
    The right cant afford self introspection and internal.criticism. The bernie bros remain a thing. The never trumpers were crushed. The right all fell in line behind trump.

    I could have sworn one of the top issue concern trolls whinge about is the left not being able to look at itself and make corrections. but as soon as they do it's "lol eating their own!", it's almost as if your concerns aren't as genuine as you pretend them to be.

    What? Have you heard her speak? It's word salad. Just at a high grade level than Trump's word salad.

    Post is overblown. Biden doesn't say that Hillary wouldn't have been a good president. He does not so subtly say that there were far better candidates.

    He's right.

    PS: Yes, the irony of several outlets like NYT or WP using this kind of title to completely misrepresent a quote don't evade me.

    [...] we have an intolerance for ideas and evidence that don’t fit a certain ideology. I’m also not saying that we should restrict people to certain gender roles; I’m advocating for quite the opposite: treat people as individuals, not as just another member of their group (tribalism)..

    Looks like the left is eating their own..nom nom nom.

    Although, to be honest, biden would have been a better candidate than Hillary, hands down.
    Way to go Joe! This is something any honest Democrat can admit.

    She was a completely terrible candidate. This isn't even really disputable since, well, Trump won. Any remotely decent candidate from the Dems would have beaten Trump.

    This really isn't news.

    I'd much rather see news that the Dems are getting their shit together and becoming a real grassroots progressive party rather than this quasi center-left, but mostly center, lobbyist-beholden mess it currently is, but alas...
