OH, here comes Bernie's insult to Black voters...
I guess he avoided.

Biden has the record on turnout electability, not Bernie. Just because he's infatuated with being a youth leader. their votes are counted one at a time, just like the rest of us
Bernie acts as though voters are given 5 votes for those aged 18-20, 4 for 21-30, 3 for 31-40, 4 for 41-50, and 1 for 51+

It doesn't work that way and his turnout is not what he said it would be.

I want a multiverse where Trump sells Herb-a-Life
@Cajsa
If you are a #StateLegislator or #Governor, now is the time to start planning for how you will make decisions over the next few months - especially since, as a whole, you tend to be on the old side.

/1
We risk the normalization of authoritarian actions by the executives, the mayors, the governors, the health authority directors if legislators do not authorize their actions and appropriate funds in advance.

/2
An example is what just happened in Ohio. Gov. DeWine sensibly wanted to postpone the election but rather than follow the law and convene a special session to get the legislature to do that, he tried to do it through the courts. When that failed, he defied Court via health dept

I always enjoy Ron Reagan's commercials. I am not a lifelong atheist, though I started my road to atheism in second grade when we had a visiting pastor who talked about lying and said we learn to lie at an early age. He told a story
about his infant son who continued to cry despite being fed, burped, and with clean diapers. This, he said, was lying. He had his needs met and continued to cry. So he spanked him. I stood up in church and shouted, "That's not right" and walked right out of church
I have since gotten up and walked out of church three more times. When the pastor said everyone needed to vote for W because Gore supported infanticide. When the pastor said the US must support Israel driving the Palestinians out of Israel so the Rapture would come

.@BernieSanders support from young Latinos is rooted in their youth and his lies. They weren't there in 2007 to hear Bernie explain his 2007 vote against immigration by claiming immigrants take American jobs. So they believe him when they say he was responding to LULAC
But look, the very first time Sanders used that explanation was 2016. This is a search of Sanders and LULAC in the major dailies in order from the oldest to the newest. The oldest is 2016
So what if I go to the news bank that gets granular, looking at state papers, local papers and look in Vermont - 2017

Bernie is absolutely lying

Bernie Sanders declining to do meaningful outreach to black voters and attempting to win the Democratic nomination without them will go down as one of the greatest political blunders of all time.
It’s not controversial to say Sanders neglected to build relationships with the black community. He said just last week that he never even met with Jim Clyburn. His senior staff admitted they hadn’t done outreach to CBC members. And on the ground? latimes.com/politics/story…
Sanders has been transparent about his strategy from the beginning. He intended to win with a plurality of support in a divided field, counting on white working class voters to stick with him and young and independent voters to turn out in high numbers for him.

#Bernie supporters on Reddit are taking the loss well. Calling voters in SC “rodents”, saying black voters in Southern States shouldn’t matter, and calling South Carolinians “uneducated.”

#SouthCarolinaPrimary
#BidenForPresident
#BernieSanders supporters are saying that black voters are “low information” and “voting against their interests” and “out of touch” and “are only voting for Biden because of Obama and not his policies”

#SouthCarolinaPrimary
#BernieSanders supporters:

“years of terrible education in the south due to racism have caused black voters to not get the education necessary to see that only Bernie can help them... it may be necessary mobilize and discourage certain Black voters from turning out.”

Wow. How many people are here for Bernie? 2000+?? Huge turnout.
You could hear the cheers from 100m away outside the stadium.
Cynthia Nixon, Sex&City star and progressive Dem, on stage now. Boos ring out when she says she wanted Clinton to win in 2016. “No,” she interrupts. “We’re not going to do that here.”

THREAD — OBAMA REASSURES THE DONOR CLASS

The Beltway establishment (GOP, corporate Dems, and elite media) are worried about the Too Far Left™ movement sparked by #Bernie.

So here comes Obama going after "certain left-leaning Twitter feeds..."

nymag.com/intelligencer/…
Here's the problem: The GOP is all about white supremacists and plutocrats, while the Democratic Party leadership is all about "let's all get along and make sure Chuck Todd and David Brooks like us."

So where does that leave the rest of America?

Screwed.
If we open our eyes for just a minute, we see a landscape of struggle, suffering, anguish, stress, fear.

We see rampant injustice, inequality, and violence.

HOW LONG WILL WE ACCEPT IT?

HOW LONG WILL WE LET THE ESTABLISHMENT NORMALIZE IT?

Long, thoughtful, fascinating exploration of #Bernie's history. This narrative makes Bernie immensely more accessible and even likeable. His long financial origin story is quintessentially American in its working-class to riches trajectory.

I've written about #Sanders over the years and like most leftists, thought his politics were an essential prod to others in Congress. But there are details of his political history here that #Bernie should be pushing instead of hiding: like that he was a Harvard fellow.

#Sanders is often presented as s spendthrift, but what propelled #Bernie from 3-term mayor of tiny Burlington into the House was his fiscal responsibility. He literally was deemed the Republican Trotskyite while mayor for reeling in spending and building the city's coffers.

Not to mention the only Democrat since Carter to go north of 50 percent in the popular vote....

Carter 1976: 50.1%-48%
Clinton 1992: 43%-374%-18.9%
Clinton 1996: 49.2%-40.7%-8.4%
Gore 2000: 48.4%-47.9%
Obama 2008: 52.9%-45.7%
Obama 2012: 51.1%-47.2%
H. Clinton: 2016: 48.2%-46.1%
Barack Obama won by the most crushing majorities any Democrat had since LBJ: winning by 10 million and 5 million votes in 2008 and 2012 respectively. Next best Dem performer? A woman: Hillary Clinton, who won the popular vote by 3 million votes. Just sayin... #electability
Democrats just don't seem to accept who their base is: 9/10 black voters, 7-8/10 LatinX and API voters, 8-9/10 Native American, Muslim & Jewish voters, close to half of white women voters, most LGBT, maybe 3/10 white male voters, most nonwhite+a plurality of wht college grads.
