    Trump has spend the last two years shitting on anyone who isn't one of his cultists and being the most obnoxious, repulsive, corrupt asshat he possibly could. I'm not surprised at all that Buttigieg's voters are not interested in giving him a second chance.

    One thing I have always had a good laugh at is leftists who don't watch fox news having an opinion on what fox news is about.
    I think they would find if they actually just left the channel on as they go about their business, they would find themselves agreeing to much of it.
    Of course the Tucker/Laura/Hannity section would have to be muted lol

    It's hilarious how the mainstream media doesn't realize that the audience is full of Bernie Bros, hence the cheering.
    You do know who goes to a Bernie rally right? Die hard Bernie Sanders supporters.

    Wrong. That is a bullshit excuse that Trump pushed. There was even a post showing a douchenozzle from Turning Point USA was in the fucking crowd that asked Bernie a question.

    Right. I'll rephrase the question. Would you find Bernie Bros at a Trump rally? that's about as likely as finding two white people in Chicago at 3am with bleach and a noose on hand.

    When you're used to seeing people speak like a toddler and a mature person comes into the room with a greater vocabulary, i'm not surprised that fox viewers are impressed by this.

    He also presents solutions not tied to racism and fear. Something fox viewers and trumpkins have been getting daily doses off.

    This was a town hall that had a bunch of bernie supporters in it. It was not a conservative audience. Fox only hosted it.

    You know, Trump said this shit too. When he said it, he was lying. Guess what that makes you? ANOTHER FUCKING LIAR.

    I liked when Bernie had to explain that Medicare for All was just Medicare, but for everyone and not government controlled hospitals like the VA. Because apparently the Fox anchors are that fucking stupid.

    Still does not explain the 100% in such a poll. Aside from how obvious he is. Trump is not exactly breaking new ground.

    Do this, and you can forget any support form the right, I can guarantee you 10000000% percent.

    PS: As you can see, the article is including Bernie. At one point, he will have to make some choices, or he will lose all his potential support on the right.
    Fuck them, they are not the sort of people you want to side with. Just like you would not side with tankies.

    I have no idea where you are going with this.

    When the democratic establishment are having closed door meetings to remove Sanders it tells you that they are afraid for the changing demographics in whom is electable. The problem comes back to money and the constant fight against it in our political system, i honestly have some hope that perhaps we can remove that element to avoid the current problems we face. If anything i would say that the internet has helped elect populists that either establishment could see coming and that is why i think that populism will be here far longer then it was in the past because the scope and speed of the message without any real roadblocks in the way, the village got smaller in a sense.

    Sanders has been talking about the same issues for a while, and is a standard democratic socialist... a real left populist can be as dangerous as a right wing populist; if they start demonizing the rich, and successful, that’s when it’s time to worry.
    I agree in principle but if the leadership continues to avoid taking on the problems of the common person instead of the well to do it will just get worse and worse. They need to start tossing out some bones to keep the pitchforks in the shed or it wont be long before that kind of words are used, hell i would say it is already being stated due to the tax law with the various CEO pay in play or how various corporations paid nothing while others are struggling their asses off.

    Thankfully more and more voters are seeing through the bullshit that right wingers say about "socialized medicine".

    Since many republican voters are seniors with medicare, it's not that difficult of an argument to make.

    you'd think so, but the right wing talking point now is that adding more people to "their" medicare will make it unstable and break the system some how... /shrug

    What did Fox News expect from inviting Bernie? Anyway, Bernie Sanders or Andrew Yang works for me. If Andrew Yang could be Bernie's vice president then that would be my dream team. Unfortunately Bernie wants a female vice president which pushes out Yang.

    If you self-identify as a Buttigieg voter, you are in a more specific group than just a regular Democrat. I can't vouch for these stats but I don't think it's surprising that none of them would choose Trump over Bernie.

    Yes yes, we all know they're so obsessed with their bigotries that they'll vote against their own best interests out of pure spite. That's how we got here in the first place.
