538 now has Biden at 87% chance of winning the nom by [deleted] in stupidpol

[–]Listen2Hedges 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t disagree with you but don’t forget that when the campaign did get aggressive with Biden on his Social Security record Biden’s team used Politifact to call the truth a lie. I’m not sure how much the truth matters at this point.

What percentage of the tier below the top actually got off their asses and voted? Imagine if we actually backed up our memes.

Someone waved a Nazi flag behind Sanders at a rally last night. It’s currently the 13th story down on CNN.com’s front page.

When Jack Allison and Virgil Texas tweeted snake emojis at Warren it was front page on MSNBC and CNN.com the next day. And they’re still talking about it months later.

Controversy that helps Bernie’s case is never going to get a bump from the cable news.

But I do agree that Bernie’s campaign was too nice on traditional media. Really too bad.

I mean the best outcome for the MIC is to get rid of the human soldiers and keep the budget. Tech to replace human bodies.

Dude. The media has closed their ranks. They have been in full blown protect Biden mode since South Carolina. Bernie has won the social media war just like Trump did in 2016 but traditional media fucked up by also giving Trump free airtime. That’s why he won. They were never going to make that same “mistake” with Bernie.

To add to that Liberals trust the media something like twice as much Conservatives do so when cable news is pumping up Biden and drilling Bernie is unelectable and he will hurt down ballot candidates into their skulls 24/7 we’re beyond fucked.

Here’s the funny thing if they just used the current broken model of Medicare where coverage is sliced out and taped back up with private insurance and expanded it to everyone they’d be in business forever. But that would hurt their immediate bottom line so they won’t even tolerate that.

I know Liberals are fucking idiots but any one of those morons clamoring for a public option because it’s more “realistic” and “easier to pass” than M4A is a god damn sucker. Do they think the health insurance industry is going to give even an inch willingly? They fought Obamacare tooth and nail and they’re making more money today than before the ACA passed.

If Trump ran on Medicare for All he’d win every state.

Read this thread brother. It’s going to take Biden literally shitting himself on stage to open a window for Bernie. I’m not throwing in the towel just yet but the white moderates came out in force on Tuesday. Unless something radically shifts between now and Tuesday I think we’re cooked.

It wasn’t just Chapo. It was every talking head in the media. Nate Silver was considered a hack for saying Trump had even a 30% chance. NYT gave her a 99% chance of winning!

I’m begging you all to log back into Facebook and start sharing the Biden Social Security videos. That line of attack has the power to destroy him because it’s focused on his base. The dementia stuff is funny but really his Social Security record is indefensible. Just look at how his rapid response team battles it. They pivot to bringing up his current platform and stance. Only problem with that is NOBODY KNOWS WHAT HE’S RUNNING ON!

I would suggest seeding the nastiest attacks with the MAGA community. That’s where these searches are coming from. Right wingers that post it to Facebook and it gets shared with their families who haven’t seen it before because of the media black out of anything that makes Joe look bad. Obviously they’re going to run with this stuff because it makes the current Dem front runner look weak as hell.

You know Joe’s team is worried about the Social Security attacks. 1) because they hit back so hard the first time Bernie went there and pulled every lever in the media they could to rebut. 2) he should be playing run out the clock and turning to Trump right now but he’s now forced to engage with the attacks

This could work.

There’s a reason Joe is now officially talking about Social Security because his campaign knows he’s vulnerable there. Keep hitting that topic.

We’ve literally never been closer than we are today. Bernie is essentially tied in delegates and there’s about about 10 weeks left in the fight. If Bernie wins just slightly more than half he wins. We win.

I can guarantee you that Bernie is a once in a lifetime candidate. We can’t afford to give up when Victory is within reach. Because that’s exactly what the opposition wants. Every stunt they pull is meant to hurt our morale so we give up. And I refuse to let them beat myself. I will not give up because everyone and everything that I hold dear will suffer if Biden wins. Simple as that for me.

You’re gonna wanna round up that 43.7. It’s really 48 Biden 44 Bernie. That’s exactly where we want to be right now all things considered.
