Don’t 100% worry, @ggreenwald. It’s really too little, too late. Just prepare for a convention fight.
@ggreenwald While #AmyKlobuchar and #PeteToBiden efforts are DNC being DNC, it really is too little too late barring some big surprises, which I explained here this morning.

But... one more thing...
peoplespunditdaily.com/news/elections…
@ggreenwald Yes, the Democratic Establishment are dirty liars trying to screw over Bernie Sanders.

But his supporters should know something, to include obvious Blue Check supporters in media.

Bernie lied to DNCe, is two-faced and a convention fight would be a demon of his own design.

1/ “Even if a new president proposes sweeping reforms, Congress would block or severely #weaken them. In #foreignpolicy, however, a new president could reshape the world with a few strokes of the pen. @StephenKinzer
@stephenkinzer 2/ “A president could bring the U.S. back into the Iran nuclear deal; lift sanctions on Venezuela; offer to begin peace talks with Russia & China; pull American troops out of the ME; stop promoting the overthrow of foreign governments @StephenKinzer
@stephenkinzer 3/ 3 candidates are fully wedded to the paradigm of #conflict & #confrontation that shapes American #foreignpolicy: #JoeBiden, #AmyKlobuchar, & #PeteButtigieg.

With this speech, Bernie burnt up any chance of good relations between India and US in a potential Bernie Presidency.

1. During the temporary restrictions period in Kashmir, Indian Govt took extra care that the Valley had all the medicines that were needed and ppl received care.
2. Temporary restrictions on phone services was to stop Pakistan's stone-pelting gangs from organizing. It was meant to save lives, and save lives it did.

Violence came drastically down. Only deaths were from terrorists killing apple farm workers transporters, not by sec forces.
Moreover #Article370Abrogation was India's internal matter, which was undertaken by a democracy in a constitutional manner.

So Bernie was essentially just parroting Pakistan's talking points about "oh the Kashmiri Muslim suffering" obviously ignoring ethnic cleansing of K Hindus

1/15 This race reminds me of the rule in boxing, a split decision goes to the champ. That's how Biden has stayed on top, plus he's authentic both in screw ups and in sincere moments such as talking about the loss of his wife/kids. #ABCDemDebate #joebiden beta.washingtonpost.com/politics/biden…
2/ Elizabeth Warren's strength is her wonky, thoughtful "I'm not a typical Washington politician" and "I have a plan for that". Dodging the tax question makes her a typical Washington politician. #ewarren #ABCDemDebate #taxes theatlantic.com/politics/archi…
3/ Sanders seems incapable of modulating his speech beyond shouting and haranguing. It was interesting, however, that he finally was willing to abandon Venezuelan President Maduro. #berniesanders #venezuela #ABCDemDebate cbsnews.com/news/bernie-sa…

As documented by @TheAtlantic's always-excellent @JamesFallows, one of the underappreciated factors in 2016 election is the failure of #journalism to do its job (one Jim story-- he has many others).
...My thoughts on how to prevent repeat in 2020: <thread>
theatlantic.com/notes/2017/09/…
In 2016, MSM obsessively covered @HillaryClinton emails, while ignoring the far-more-important story of #FBI investigation of the Trump campaign. This failure had a major impact on the election's outcome. My analysis is shaped by experience in both in #journalism and politics:
We're seeing exactly the same dynamic in the 2020 campaign that we saw in 2016: MSM is focusing on horserace issues & GOP talking points, rather than delving into SUBSTANTIVE differences between the candidates. This could determine outcome of Dem primaries-- & general election.
