Democratic candidates (past and present) as #TheBachelor contestants:
Bernie Sanders: Demi. Good heart, kinda crazy, hardcore stans
Elizabeth Warren: Hannah Brown. Here for the reasons and doing the most.
Julian Castro: Grocery Store Joe. Under appreciated during his run, but will find love within the franchise.
Amy Klobuchar: Chad. Mildly entertaining but also terrifying with abuse allegations.
Pete Buttigieg: Ben Higgins. Promising with lots of buzz but ultimately disappointing. Too republican for my liking.
Michael Bloomberg: Arie. Widely disliked but still here for some reason.
Beto O’Rourke: Kaitlyn Bristowe. An early favorite but the tide has turned. Again, hoping he finds love not in the “franchise” but franchise-adjacent
Cory Booker: Mike Johnson. The candidate we didn’t deserve. Cheesy but heart is in the right place.
Andrew Yang: Kendall Long. Wackadoodle ideas but harmless.
Joe Biden: Colton Underwood. Boring. White. Mass appeal I guess.
Kamala Harris: Rachel Lindsey. Made history, tough, and good with the one-liners.
SUBMISSION:
Michelle Obama: Tyler Cameron. Loves healthy living and active lifestyles. Wish she was our candidate but she’s too busy living her best life.
@jessmccarron @CapitolWilhite
Tom Steyer: Blake. Please stop dancing.
Marianne Williamson: Dean’s dad. Spiritual? Yes. Sinister? Also yes.

Elizabeth #Warren has just proven she cannot unify the Democratic party.

For those not aware, she attacked Senator #Sanders directly today by reviving smears from the 2016 primary and recast herself in the performative victim role of Hillary Clinton that we all found so

(1/16)
very endearing. This is the first time either Warren or Sanders attacked each other directly and given the desperation one might expect with her declining numbers, it was Warren who launched the grenade. She used an unverified and heavily disputed report of a lower level

volunteer canvassing script that distinguished her GE electoral coalition as "affluent and highly educated" to claim that Bernie was sending volunteers to "trash" her. Quite a stretch. She then launched into a nervously delivered pathetic 2-minute long monologue

“Any intersectional candidate would be better than the old white man. That’s why we’re supporting Ben Carson.” Said no liberal ever. Which suggests they get WHY their “intersectionality” analysis is bullshit, they just don’t care.
This isn’t hard to grasp. There are millions of people along these lines of intersectionality that need help. People who fall along those lines aren’t necessarily the best to engage in that help, especially in a system that holds down anyone who isn’t a “model minority.”
I’m trans. There are millions of trans people who need better treatment and protection. Do I assume a wealthy trans person who has made the compromises necessary to have political power in spite of their transness is inherently the best to make these changes? Fuck no.

New: Bernie Sanders has not yet criticized progressive presidential rival Elizabeth Warren. But his aides are "drawing contrasts." My look at the gradual fraying of the non-aggression pact: huffpost.com/entry/bernie-s…
In the waning hours of Sunday, and early Monday, @briebriejoy put out a series of policy critiques directed at Warren.

When I followed up, the campaign stuck by it.

“Primary campaigns are about drawing contrasts between candidates so that voters can make an informed choice..."
@briebriejoy I've laid out four areas where Sanders aides or surrogates are trying to "draw contrasts":

1) Rent control
2) Medicare for All
3) Warren's Republican past
4) Electability

“Legal but rare” abortion became a sellout position, given that any woman had a right to partial-birth abortion and even infanticide if she so chose.
A dream of a 50 percent income-tax rate on top incomes went to talk of 70 percent then to 90 percent and then to a wealth tax as just deserts. To enlarge the electorate, illegal aliens should vote first in local elections, but then why not everywhere?
Sixteen-years olds could too, and so why not ex-felons as well? About a $1.5 trillion in student debt should be forgiven — but then tuition should be free for all (as should Medicare).
