1/ So some Dems want us to think we should nominate a racist billionaire w/history of misogyny who endorsed W, rather than Bernie bc he's too "out there" for people? So, u think Americans prefer rich, sexually predatory bigots to people who support health care as a right? Hmmm...
If u think that about this country, why would u love it? Or ever question the degree to which the left loves America? Shit, the Bernie supporters frankly are more optimistic about people than that...If America needs Bloomberg to save it from Sanders, America deserves to fall..
by the same token, if America needs Bloomberg to save it from Trump, it deserves to fall, utterly and completely. Surly we are better than a choice between two billionaires, both misogynistic, both racist AF...

1/ If Bernie gets the nom, any1who cares about this country must vote for him. But if he gets it and loses, those who promised the youth would save us with massive “revolutionary” turnout must be politically smashed for all time. That left, if he loses, should b discredited 4ever
2/ Likewise, if some more establishment friendly Dem gets the nomination and loses, so too should that centrist “outreach” to so called swing voters shit be discredited forever. No more James Carville on TV in that case. Clean out the DNC....
3/ Whichever side prevails in the primary, if they lose this eminently winnable election in November, they all deserve to be ignored forever afterwards...

1/ Only cult members view criticism or questioning of their leader as apostasy or evidence of being an enemy. Rational people view it as critical thinking and vetting and just being normal. Trump devotees obviously misunderstand this but so do others...
2/ I've been critical of every major Dem candidate and find all of them flawed in some important ways. But that doesn't mean I wouldn't vote for them or that I hate them or am an enemy of them/their supporters. Yet ONLY Bernie supporters have attacked me for those criticisms..
3/ ONLY these folks seem hell bent on attacking the least bit of criticism or questioning, especially from others on the left. They seek to impugn our integrity & commitment to progressivism, rather than just acknowledging good people can disagree...

Re: Trump/Russia: folks want 2 make it about his $$ & protecting investments. It's simpler. He thinks Russian interference detracts from his 'earning' his victory. It's all ego. He knows he never earned anything. His daddy handed him $400m. It's all imposter syndrome.
the strategy to destroy him is to mock him for being a phony, an imposter, someone who had his wealth handed to him and doesn't know how regular people live because he isn't one...who ignores their pain just to praise his own economy (despite the inequities of it)
it is NOT to nominate a billionaire who thinks he "earned" his $, bc no one EARNS more than the bottom 120m Americans...only an asshole or someone who's on the bad crack could think any1 could be that much more valuable than 120m people...time to reject massive inequity al2gether

If you count the number of voters, #Bernie walked away with #Iowa… It’s not a matter whether you're for or against Sanders, it’s whether you're for or against democracy: gregpalast.com/election-crime… #BernieSanders #Bernie2020
It's F.O.B. Fear of #Bernie. There's a panic at the national Democratic party. And as happened in 2016, it's California where the DNC leadership is going to try to block Sanders. History is about to repeat itself. gregpalast.com/bernie-won-cal… #BernieSanders #Bernie2020
Be warned: If you want to vote in California's Democratic primary, make your life easy, sign up as Democrat. Register or check your registration right now! gregpalast.com/stealing-calif…

Stealing California from #Bernie — again? gregpalast.com/stealing-calif… #BernieSanders #Bernie2020 #BernieSanders2020 #CAprimary
I saw what happened to #Bernie in 2016. People were improperly registered, not registered. There were three quarters of a million ballots which were cast provisionally or on the wrong ballot, which were thrown out. gregpalast.com/stealing-calif… #BernieSanders #Bernie2020
It was mostly #Bernie votes that were thrown out. We know that from the Roper Poll. #BernieSanders won California in June, 2016, if you counted all the votes… gregpalast.com/bernie-won-cal…

1/8 My favorite #quote by #JosephStalin, which explains the scientific, #DialecticalMaterialist explanation of true freedom in material reality, not just as an abstract ideal. #StalinIsBack #StalinLives #JVStalin #Stalin #StalinQuote #StalinQuotes #Truth #MELS #MarxismLeninism
2/8 Having an #objective, #rational, #ScientificSocialist, #Dialectical, & #Materialist viewpoint allows us to accurately see & evaluate & analyze #Truth & #Reality as they truly materially exist in this universe.
3/8 An idealistic, dogmatic viewpoint, which capitalists have, however, makes one irrational enough to 'see' freedom where freedom stays trapped on a piece of paper while people are oppressed in their actual lived lives.

⁉️WHAT⁉️

@GOP donor Steven Alembik, who gave >$20,000 to @RonDeSantisFL & lined up a speech for him at Mar-a-Lago, tweeted “F*** THE MUSLIM N—-” about Obama recently.🤬

He claims he wrote the tweet in anger, and he’s “absolutely not” a #racist.🙄

politi.co/2QKDydO
Lest you think that this #racist pile of steaming dung made only one PUBLIC slip of the tongue (or tweet), check out his shocking interview with the reporter, where he DOUBLED DOWN on his #racism‼️🤬
DeSantis recently said “monkey this up” about @AndrewGillum, yet denied he had any racial intent.🙄

This latest disgusting rant is the FIFTH #racist issue for DeSantis, his campaign or supporters in just a few months.🤬

VOTE #GillumForGovernor‼️
