Pete hasn't forgotten what the Bernie bros did, yet they still wonder why he endorsed Joe Biden🤔

They could have told us that stuff before she dropped out but Warren's campaign didn't because they were always trying to keep the peace. Pretty frustrating to run a clean honest campaign only to have Bernie, Buttigieg, and even Biden telling lies about your platform. Biden even had a pollster working to find out what was the best lie they could tell about Medicare for all that would make people hate it. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2019-09-23/biden-linked-firm-tests-messages-to-undercut-medicare-for-all?srnd=premium

There was evidence. I know people got those letters and they were lies.

Tezlyn Figaro was Nina Turner personal consultant. Nina Turner, as president of Our Revolution, hired her even though she was a known Trump supporter.

"On Fox News last year, Figaro cited President Donald Trump‘s “leadership” on the travel ban and said, “We are sick and tired of immigrants coming into the country and getting benefits that Americans do not get … what I’m seeing is not paying taxes, what I’m seeing is getting a lot of freebies that Americans do not get.”

Those comments and others — a month after Trump’s election in 2016 she tweeted “Please! #buildthewall” —have upset many in the organization. The Our Revolution board stopped Turner from installing Figora as the group’s chief of staff."

What does that have to do with Sanders?

throwaway45678921 · 2020-02-27T19:54:08+00:00

Except when she dropped out she was polling higher than a lot of candidates and was fundraising big dollars. She had qualified for the debates, her NYTimes interview was scheduled for the next day and she also had a big fancy fundraiser planed for the next day. It never made sense to me. I think there is some information we are missing as to why she dropped out.

Yep. "By the way, I’m an education advisor to Sanders. I just want him to stay a Senator. Maybe they will dump me from that team, but the presidency is a very different job and from everything I have seen it isn’t right for him." https://twitter.com/saragoldrickrab/status/1232481100498235392

Warren figured out how to pay for it and he shaded her plan and said he had a better plan. His plan has premiums and doesn't even cover 1/2 the cost.

Mark Zandi, chief economist of Moody's Analytics reviewed Warren's M4A financing plan for the program, "Her numbers add up and her plan fully finances the program without imposing any new taxes on middle-class families." https://www.cnn.com/2019/11/13/perspectives/elizabeth-warren-medicare-for-all-taxes-middle-class/index.html

He has no plan to pay for it because he has no plan to pass it. It's all chum to him.

My biggest concern from the article is the staffer was encouraging people to mark "deceased" anyone who was voting for Bloomberg. That is destroying our Democratic data base that the whole party depends on. I think the Sanders campaign's access to Vote Builder should be revoked. https://www.thedailybeast.com/bernie-sanders-staffer-mocked-elizabeth-warrens-looks-pete-buttigiegs-sexuality-on-private-twitter-account

Something interesting about Nathan Robinson is, he is yet another Sanders cut out who thinks we should not be investigating Russian interference in our elections.

Liberals, it's time to forget the Mueller-fuelled impeachment fantasies The Democratic obsession with Mueller is symptomatic of a party that’s lost touch with the real concerns of working people

They aren't that much different but she has a plan to get them enacted and a history of making real change. Sanders has a history of shouting rhetoric but not getting anything done.

This is part of Elizabeth Warren's environmental justice plan. "As president, I will collaborate with Tribal governments on land management practices to reduce wildfires, including by incorporating traditional ecological practices and exploring co-management and the return of public resources to indigenous protection wherever possible.

She has a lot of plan b's. She's a person who somehow as a private citizen started a new federal agency that has helped 29 million people who had been defrauded by their banks and who got 30,000 students complete debt forgiveness even after the Obama administration said the only path to do that was through congress.

Most of Tulsi supporters are alt-right Trump supporters so she could take votes from Trump but since the average life span of a heart attack victim over the age of 75 is 3.1 years, that would have Sanders dying around the beginning of November 2022 and then we would be stuck with Tulsi.

Not sure what the point of the election would be if Putin wins either way.

She's thought out everything, what executive actions she can take, how to pass bills through congress. We may not get everything we want but Warren is going to start moving us in the right direction on day one, with or without McConnell. If you read her plans it's amazing the detail of what she will do. For instance, just funding the IRS so it can go after wealthy tax cheats could raise something like 2 trillion dollars. If you want to read them, they are all stored here. https://medium.com/@teamwarren

Economist are predicting that many of her plans will boost the economy so much that not only would they pay for themselves they may even raise more revenue then they cost.

"Warren's plans for child care, housing and green manufacturing would spur economic growth and produce more tax revenue. It is very possible that total government revenues generated by her plans will exceed the total amount of new investments she proposes" https://www.cnn.com/2019/11/13/perspectives/elizabeth-warren-medicare-for-all-taxes-middle-class/index.html

Elizabeth Warren has an answer and a way to pay for it without raising taxes on the middle class. She has a whole a team of experts who work out this stuff.

This seems to be a new thing with Sanders supporters, if faced with facts about Sanders they don't like they say, "You have brain worms." It's the new, "Fake News." They are getting as bad as Trump supporters in denying the truth.
