'You’re about to go on a treacherous journey. You’ve hired an army of knowledgeable experts who know the dangerous twists and turns in the road, who know where the brigands lurk, who have been told for weeks exactly what perils await.

What do you do? In all likelihood, you do not venture out on this journey by tossing out the map of the terrain and wrapping a blindfold around your head.

But that’s what Michael Bloomberg did Wednesday night.'

Trump tweeted:

'Rod Blagojevich did not sell the Senate seat. He served 8 years in prison, with many remaining. He paid a big price. Another Comey and gang deal!'

I particularly enjoyed the part where she rhetorically tore off his arms and beat him around the face and crotch with them.

No one seems to be talking about the most chilling part...only Bernie said that the person with the most votes should get the nomination...the rest of them refused to say that. THE REST OF THEM REFUSED...including Warren FFS!

So only Bernie Sanders actually believes in having a Democracy?

Is it just me or is the DNC angling to not give Bernie the Nom even if he has a plurality?

1968 was not THAT long ago, was it? How people forget.

Jeezus christ...

Honestly, at this point unless Bernie gets the Nomination, you Americans can all resign yourselves to another 4 years of Trump, because apparently even the Democratic candidates vying for pole position would rather the 'devil they know' who helps fill their pockets (Trump), than the one who wants to reign in the rich and make them pay their fair share.

Speculating: no one wants to be seen onside with Bernie. Too polarizing for a significant chunk of the DRP.

So it is very easy for Bernie to say that as he isn't actually a democrat. However if this goes to the convention with out a lock then people are going to be negotiating for positions. Why would you give that up for no reason. That is stupid. Kind of like leaving a trade union with out having a trade deal in place.....

'Why Does Chuck Todd Exist?

Filed to: BECAUSE STUPID CHUCK TODD IS STUPID

[...] No one, not even a monkey that has been trained to smoke meth, is this stupid.

This idiotic question is akin to asking a slave what he could have done to prevent his master from whipping him so much. Aside from the sheer caucasity of the query, insinuating that Obama somehow fueled the documented racial resentment (pdf) disguised as "economic anxiety" contradicts all the available evidence. Obama rescued America from the brink of economic disaster, initiated protections for LGBTQ communities and engendered the adoration of world leaders. Trump has done the opposite. Obama left office with a 59 percent approval rating, a mark Trump has never approached. But here's the stupidest part of Todd's question:

Barack Obama didn't run against Trump.

There is no objective reason, aside from racism or sheer stupidity, why any reasonable person would ask this question. I don't think Chuck Todd is a rabid racist. But even if he is, most racists wouldn't publicly say something this stupid.

[...] I am as proficient at basketball and picking cotton as Chuck Todd is at his cotton-picking political punditry. It's not his fault that he keeps failing up.

[...] Todd is just one example of the entitlements afforded to humdrum mouth-breathers who are born with the spectacular talents of growing beards, speaking in complete sentences and simply not fucking up their privilege. And America is nothing if not a perpetual promotion machine for whiteness.

And that is why Chuck Todd still exists.'

'Trump Goes After First Foreign Best Picture "Parasite"

“And the winner is a movie from South Korea. What the hell was that all about? We’ve got enough problems with South Korea, with trade. On top of it they give them best movie of the year. Was it good? I don't know,” the president told the crowd, adding that he thought the film had won best foreign picture. “Let's get Gone with the Wind. Can we get Gone with the Wind back, please?” [...] Trump also took a quick jab at Brad Pitt, who won Best Supporting Actor this year. “He's a little wise guy”'

'MSNBC's Chris Matthews faces calls to resign after comparing Sanders' Nevada victory to Nazi Germany's defeat of France

[...] "I was reading last night about the fall of France in the summer of 1940 and the general, Reynaud, calls up Churchill and says, 'It's over.' And Churchill says, 'How can that be? You've got the greatest army in Europe. How can it be over?' He said, 'It's over.'"

[...] Sanders is Jewish and had lost relatives during the Holocaust. ["Had lost"? Did he find them?]

"It is absolutely unacceptable that Matthews is making comparisons between Bernie Sanders, whose family was murdered by Nazis, to Nazis. @HardballChris needs to retire. Immediately," Media Matters editor-at-large Parker Molloy wrote.'

I think I heard that Chuck Todd or what ever he's called also compared Bernie supporters to brown shirts. Charming.

It is kind of striking when you consider that he could afford to just "If i am elected, every single American who voted for me gets $1 million dollars." .
