Bloomberg is a Bernie spoiler incase Joe flops yes

Tonight, Joe likely flopped - hard in fact, he wasnt viable in what seems to be a very high # of precincts, and he might even walk away with 0 delegates after its all over.

That would be convenient for Bloomberg to jump in, with the next debate coming up etc. 

BUT now Biden can give his last "I didnt lose yet!" speech, which could prevent Bloomberg from becoming the lead moderate yet.

 

But, I have to ask do you know Michael Bloomberg's history? This man is a literal Republican oligarch who helped put dozens of innocent black people in jail and advocated for legal discrimination via stop and frisk (so just blatant racial profiling), has a history of sexual harassment and deep misogyny, etc. I actually WOULD prefer Biden over him, and I hate Joe Biden :ladyhaha: 

Oof, my phone bugged, sorry for this like double post or w.e :rip: I dont know how this happened

U think that's bad? Try Universal Healthcare Hospital wifi :air:

 

When I was in the hospital for 6 hours (I had seperate appointments and no car cuz my wife was using it and I had the flu so I wasn't gonna chill outside or go to mall etc so I just stayed there waiting bored in the lounge between them)

 

I got so frustrated with each page taking 15-20 seconds to load that I gave up on the hospital wifi and RAPED THE SH*T outta my data :rip:

 

My phone bill was so high that month I coulda just put the money towards an Uber to go home between those 6 hours :air:

I live in a virtual dead zone :sis: 

Part of why I support Bernie trying to make internet access a public good + bringing back Net Neutrality so that private companies cannot ration off and scam people with no internet access :fan:

Caucuses look fun, but totally infeasible for people who have lives. It’s borderline voter suppression unless election days are made national holidays.

@Economy omg you poor thing and @ItsTommyBitch I can’t :ladyhaha:

I referenced that from my days when I used to play that horrible game Power Rangers: Legacy Wars and we used to comment on players that had spotty connections. Walmart Wifi was one of the running jokes. I know we’re way off topic.

It's ok I didn't pay for the appointments (since its universal healthcare) so I got no right to complain about slow free wifi :selena:

 

Considering my data overcharge tho, it would have been cheaper for me to just buy the faster premium wifi for $27 considering my data overuse charges were $40 :sweat:

It blows my mind elections aren't held on holidays or Sundays in the US. I can't imagine how few Greeks would vote if they were held on working days

Funny thing you mention that...there are a lot of folks who believe that Election Day here should be a Federal Holiday.

Honestly, at this point both Bernie people and Pete people are claiming victories :rip: 

No matter who is announced as the winner in the end, its not going to be trusted, the faith in this system is entirely compromised and invalidated.

They should either give the frontrunners (if there is a clear gap between 2nd and 3rd) a proportionate or equal # of delegates, do a re-vote in primary style later on (that would be a mess and so expensive, IK just saying), or scrap these results tbh.

It's the only way going forward that anyone will be able to take this primary as fair and balanced (and we already know theres institutional bias against Bernie, so thats why people are going to be SO sure he won, this is ridiculous)

Bernie definitely is going to take this as a victory. 

 

New Hampshire is looking sharp right now. If he can keep Biden/Warren from being viable (as most recent emerson poll suggests), the muddled Iowa caucus won't matter so much. Bernie will go into NV with either 1 or 2 wins and a delegate lead. It's going to snowball from there and we're going to get the epic bloomberg vs bernie fight we deserve in super tuesday.

It's always on Sunday in Greece. And I think most jobs give election day paid leave if you leave far away from the province you vote (like for islanders)

Trump's approval ratings at 49% and probably will break 50 after his "I was acquitted, what a great day for our country" speech his speechwriter probably wrote last September :rip: 

Democrats... are so, so stupid. We need to burn this **** to the ground :deadbanana:

If we end up with Bloomberg (cause he replaces Joe) thanks to superdelegates because of a potential brokered convention where they take the nom from Bernie to give it to him (or it could still be Joe)

We will literally be running a Republican Oligarch who has a history of harassing and making disparaging sexist comments towards women, who benefitted financially off of profiling black and brown people in New York, and a man who has not released his tax returns but has shady business ties :rip:

We're BEGGING to lose.

Just imagine that scenario - and realize that its very possible... I've been saying this for months, the DNC would rather lose to Trump by running a Republican against him, than decide to back Bernie Sanders :deadbanana:
