    I do not attribute the loss on voter suppression.

    Biden bested the night, fair & square. However *anywhere* w/ a multi-hour wait to vote - whether in GA, TX, MI, or anywhere else - is a problem.

    Voter suppression primarily targets Black voters, & young ppl can be impacted too.

    Given how quickly Tulsi Gabbard went from Russian asset to brave soldier and patriot again, I doubt the Dems will hold it against her too long.

    The same thing happened in CA. Especially at polling stations which were locate at campuses. Cal Fullerton polling station had 3-hour long line.

    Up to $1200 per adult, $2400 per couple and 500 additional for each child. If it gets approved by Congress. https://www.foxnews.com/politics/mcc...-plan-payments.

    It is based on income, with those making over $100,000 for a single person and $150,000 for a couple, getting nothing. It is also phased down from those figures for a single person making $75,000 and $100,000 for a couple. The min would be $600. Those under those figures ( $75,000/ $100,000 ) would get the full amount.

    A waste of money. Not even making close to 100K but I wouldn't wipe my arse with that. People who need help need much more.

    This is what you get when your president is a visible and literal dribbling retard.

    Then spend it on donations on your favorite democrat candidate.

    If the money goes out, and you're in a position where it won't really help you......then donate it to people/causes who do need it.

    There will be lots of families who need it.
    There will be lots of charities who need it.

    Agreed - give it to a healthcare worker who HAS to work but doesn't have childcare any more. Seriously.

    Biden has the support of the progressives. The most progressive candidate of the 2020 cycle, Gillibrand has backed Biden.



    “He’s the absolute best candidate to defeat President Trump, and I think he is the person who has gained the trust and the respect of the American people in a way that no one else has,” Gillibrand said in an interview with The Washington Post. “The truth is he’s run the strongest campaign.”

    Huh. I didn't realize that Gillibrand was completely delusional. No mater who you support, Biden has done absolutely fuck all, stumbled through his words when he's not insulting people, and has yet to actually DO anything that would make me think he can do...well, anything.

    That's nice of her. I feel like you're being sarcastic as Gillibrand is often not considered progressive by purity test progressives, but still nice of her.

    Interesting article on Gabbard: https://fivethirtyeight.com/features...otic-campaign/

    I didn't know she endorsed Sanders last time. I like the quote "the more Democrats got to know her over the course of the campaign, the less they liked her. "

    All you people claiming Biden is disabled made his debate super easy. Crushed whatever small chance Sanders had left. All he had to do was not drool on himself and he came off as above expectations.

    If there's been a policy election in my lifetime I'm unaware of it. Most voters are ignorant and irrational.

    Nevertheless, the Democrats have embraced "compromise" to the point that they're further right than most other countries' right wing parties. Why should their voters turn out to support "Nothing Will Fundamentally Change" Biden?

There is no point in continuing to vote for people who will spit in your eye and slam all your policies meant to help people. I said from the start I would have voted for Biden, but that was before his serve mental decline. Now a big part of my vote rides on his VP pick, and if he chooses Kamala, Stacy Abrams, Gillibrand, or some other neo-liberal then I wish them the best of luck.
    I think the best VP he could pick is a fatal case of COVID-19.

    But you'll never be convinced otherwise, which makes your entire opinion immaterial. You hate Biden (for some reason), and therefore anything he's done is either bad or "not enough" (whatever the fuck that means), and anything he plans to do or actually does, will also not meet your standards.

    It's like you don't understand what it means to win a Presidential election.

    Yeah, he was pretty awful in that last debate head-to-head against Sanders. Oh, wait - that's right, he kicked Sanders' ass. I sure with you'd get your head out of yours and get with the program.

    So basically Andrew Yang got eliminated early on because nobody wanted his damn socialist ideas like UBI, and now the Trump administration is rushing to implement a cheapo version of it and the right wingers are creaming their panties in anticipation of their totally-not-socialism cheques?
