Nixon/McGovern all over again

 

the Lefty cranks will be given media attention as if every one of them is worth 10,000 votes

 


If that happens, watch how fast the national popular vote interstate compact goes away.

(he said $30-$40 trillion)

 

Bernie Sanders Admits Medicare for All Would Cost Up to $40 Trillion
Joe Biden claims his Obamacare 2.0 would cost about $750 billion, by comparison.

Democrats’ Far-Left Lean Risks More Than the Presidency.

Other dire scenarios await if the party keeps heading left, responding to its liberal base and the pressure of TV debates. One possible outcome is that Democrats will lose what slim chance they have of retaking the Senate. Then Trump will be able to nominate and confirm probably at least one more and possibly two more conservative Supreme Court justices, plus lower court justices and executive branch officials who’ll carry out his will.

 

It gets worse. Democrats recaptured the House in 2018 because 40 moderates took seats Republicans won in 2016. If the party is deemed far-left in 2020, Democrats could lose control of the House and Trump could once again operate without any serious congressional oversight.

 

No one seems to realize the danger more than Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who has been resisting liberal pressure to begin impeachment proceedings that would inflame Trump’s base.

 

 

Yeah, but she’s a well-known racist.

I don't think his arms are long enough to lift his belly off the floor. 

 

That just makes them easier. 

 

Pelosi knows she she needs the squad to shut up or they will lose the White House. She ideologically sympathizes with them more than she shows, but Nancy knows how to play the game. Trump vs The Squad gets Trump a second term. Trump vs a moderate could win the Dems the presidency. And Trump gets this too. 

 

You even see Harris understanding this. She raises her hand to say she wants to get rid of private insurance (her belief probably) but then walked it back because she knows that’s not a general election winner. Harris is trying hard to move middle enough that she can eventually win the general. Smart of her.

  You're allowed only so many walk backs and she has used all hers up.  A drawback if your schtick is the most intellectually polished candidate in the arena.  People were/are willing to cut Trump slack on this because he is coming from not the world of politics or academia but main street.
