The only true "outsiders" are those who've never been in the halls of Congress.

Now that may appeal to people who want to drown government in the comfort of their own bathtub -- but I trust that the majority of the American people are better than to hearken to those who have as minimal a knowledge of policy and politics as possible.
Authoritarianism kills all. Never forget that.

Just got to say it.

Bernie got cucked politically and he is just taking it. Not seen anything worse since Anthony Weiner's wife stood by her husband pretending to be happy.

Difference between losing and being cheated. Don't think there is such a thing as being cheated with grace.

Bernie, being non-mainstream in a divisive two-person race, was always going to lose to a mainstream candidate.

That's not being "cheated".

The DNC itself utilising shady tactics however is. Bernie did not just go up on stage and say he was dissapointed because he lost an election, he's dissapointed because the party itself was used against him in an active and underhanded sense.

Yeah, it's called "what happens when the left stands up to the establishment", we're seeing it in the UK.

Yup, Bernie was really standing up to the establishment just there, hands in slumped over the desk and ranting on about his revolution which was just fucked in the ass by the party he is at the same time endorsing.

I think it's funny that Republicans pretend to give a single ounce of fuck about Bernie. By funny, I mean visibly and embarrassingly disingenuous.

Not a republican, hell, not even American.

Oh I'd take Hillary over Bernie any day if it was derisively proven that no exceptionally underhanded or corruptible tricks were taken, but that does not make the situation any less funny.

No, it's a cuckspiracy!

Not referring to you specifically, just something I've noticed over the last couple of days.

Trump calls him Crazy Bernie in one breath, and awkwardly courts his supporters in the next. Then says that if the Republicans had been caught doing something like DWS had done, the Dems would have made a huge deal of it. Well, yeah, of course they would. The same way you're doing right fucking now.

This whole bloody election cycle is just the worst kind of telenovella. None of it is funny anymore. It's just mortifying and shameful.

If Hillary can't bring the Bernie Brats to heel then she has not won.

So, ultimately, you're in agreement with him? Or is this trying to imply that the Republicans should be ignoring a major scandal occurring in the opposing party?

And sadly, there's too many people with a hateboner for Hillary Clinton that they won't give a fuck about the possibility they're being played like pawns by Putin as long as they get their fix of confirmation bias to fuck up her electability.

As a Texan who votes in Florida, I wont vote for Hillary because I oppose the mandate to purchase insurance. An alliance with Putin is perfectly acceptable to accomplish that goal. If worse comes to worse we give Putin Alaska and maybe No Cal.

I am not a politician just someone voting his conscious and my conscious tells me removal of the mandate is paramount.

Nobody brought up commies except you. Putin is eyeing Eastern Europe like Jerry Sandusky eyes elementary school boys' locker rooms, and he's acted on it with grabbing the Crimea and lending support to Ukrainian rebels. The only reason he's not more blatant is NATO, and if his cronies can get Trump elected that won't stand in their way for long.

Let's not pretend Clinton nor the DNC need any help in actively fucking up their own electability.


Yes, it was Clinton and the DNC that broke into their own servers and released the emails right at the start of the national convention. :roll:
