Joe Biden 2020 campaign megathread v3 (pg 45 - mass-dropout aftermath)

[Rookie Yinzer]

Stop. Y’all know that man is not putting a Republican on the ticket.

I do think it’s hella annoying how Democrats are always asked these stupid ass questions though.

You're right, but Biden's also the one who chose to give that particular answer, further proving he's unfit for office.

That’s a reach. I could easily see Warren and Sanders saying something similar and the people on Twitter would have been just fine with it. Yes, Biden is naive as hell when it comes to the GOP but he would not put them on the ticket. He was just saying something to get them out of his face. Democrats aren’t allowed to come across as craven and hyper-partisan like the media allows the GOP to be.

I suspect that Bernie would give a curt no if asked if he'd consider picking a Republican as his running mate.

He hates the Democratic Party and constantly coddles Trump voters. I beg to differ.

This is going to drive people to the polls for Biden in the primary whether folks want to believe it or not.

The message is "Anyone but Trump," I don't see how it makes Biden stand out.

The #1 answer I got canvassing and phone banking for Harris & Warren in SC when I asked what issue was important was getting Trump out of office. Biden is giving primary voters what they want.

Biden starts his attacks on Bernie. It was only a matter of time, and to be honest I'm surprised it took this long.

Defending himself from Bernie's misinformation campaign is an attack on Bernie? K.

Ironic how you're the one condescending to me when you take my post completely out of context. I actually watched Biden's video. He clearly wasn't serious. I believed him because a mocking explanation is very much in character for him. The video wasn't altered, but it was clearly taken out of context. He fought to keep Social Security intact for 8 years, and I trust he'll do it again for another 4 if he gets elected.

If you're getting offended over me saying "Biden's attacking Bernie and I'm surprised it took him this long to do it," then you're as thin-skinned as the candidate support.

Not offended at all. Glad we both agree that Biden wasn’t serious.

[Rookie Yinzer]

lol at RFKFan stanning Biden just because he now is the "black supporters' candidate"

shouldn't you have stuck with Warren on principle? Come on!

I always said I would stop dragging Biden if it was apparent he was going to be the nominee. My vote is not based on emotion. Sanders will be a disaster as the nominee and my vote is strategic. If Warren can snuff him out in Iowa and New Hampshire, then my vote will go to her. 31 contests will occur before I vote anyway.

You’ll be alright.

Joe is not playing nice with Bernie’s disingenuous, fraudulent ass. This ain’t 2016 Bros.

Black voters in places like Lancaster, SC don't care about any of this mess and will be selecting Joseph R. Biden on February 29.

Even if Biden wouldn't cut Social Security in the 2020s, it is another sign that he has poor judgement that he did seriously try to in the past, and shows he wouldn't stand up for progressive priorities as strongly as other contenders (in particular, Bernie).

The Senate controls the agenda which is why I've largely cooled off on my Biden hate. He will sign whatever the Democratic Senate sends him and unless he wants his party to be slaughtered in the midterm he will not cooperate with a McConnell-led Senate to cut Social Security. Some of the loudest critics are overreacting because it's the 4th quarter and Biden is still not down the way so many (including myself) hoped he would be. The attack is disingenuous and reeks of desperation.

So what? SC won't matter if Bernie wins IA/NH/NV.

Sure Jan.

[Rookie Yinzer]

So endorsements from minor elected officials were signs of his support in that community, but one of those same elected officials retracting her endorsements is not a sign of problems? I guess you just don't care to listen to women of color.

No. His massive leads with black voters both nationally and in South Carolina were signs of support in the black community, and considering SC's black population is more rural than most other states, Biden's support here is probably understated. If I remember correctly Hillary over performed her polling average by 15, while Bernie under performed by 5.

[Rookie Yinzer]

otherwise Tom Steyer will run against her in 2022 and probably beat her

Sure Jan.

Kamala will be endorsing if Biden rolls through the first three. Maybe even as a part of a CBC push to block Bernie Sanders who has touted the support of a known racist pig.

The Senate will be writing and proposing policy not some random on Biden's campaign.

[Rookie Yinzer]

TBH, I don't think Biden is even close to winning IA. There have been polls showing him ahead, but I just don't see it at this point. He may have a chance in NV, but after losing IA and NH the dynamics will have changed.

Clinton didn’t win IA or NH and look at him....

The overwhelmingly white media is VASTLY OVERESTIMATING the effect of winning IA/NH on what voters in diverse states will do. Obama was tied and/or beating Hillary with black voters before IA. Bernie is down by 30-40 points. Nothing is going to fundamentally reverse this.

The fundamentals for Biden remain strong in huge states like TX and FL. He just needs to stay focused and on message so we can send the Berners to the dustbin of history.

[Rookie Yinzer]

Love how Biden's the only candidate who can have a senile freakout at a voter and the media doesn't care. The establishment media is so in the bag for Biden it's hysterical. A benefit of Trump winning is that the influence of traditional media has been greatly reduced, so nobody cares what the talking heads on CNN have to say anymore. This candidate is so unfit for office, and really he's unfit to speak with American voters.

Bernie had a damn heart attack, lied about it, and the media said nothing. Get off your cross.

[Rookie Yinzer]

If Biden’s donors abandon him then Bloomberg is going to be in a one on one against Sanders. Never saw that coming.

[Rookie Yinzer]

If Biden ends up being a paper tiger and rational Dems have to rely on Bloomberg to save us from breadline praising Bernard Sanders..... SDFJGHKSHAKALFJDLA

[Rookie Yinzer]

Biden will not win the nomination. He's no Hillary Clinton, much less a Barack Obama.

That part. Just DEAD at the Biden stans on this forum who swore he was better than Hillary. In a scenario where she sits out 2016 and Biden runs and loses, she would be leading this field convincingly at this point. Biden could never.

[Rookie Yinzer]

One group of people that are probably really angry now are all the candidates that got no traction because Biden was there, people like Cory Booker, its kind of funny how Biden arguably blocked stronger candidates from gaining any ground only to basically collapse at the end himself.

Kamala Harris should still be in this race. It's disgusting.

[Rookie Yinzer]

He only has one staffer in North Carolina, a pivotal state not only in the primary but in the general with a Governor's race and Senate race on the line. He's broke and will not be able to keep up with Bernie down the stretch.

If he doesn't win SC he needs to drop out.

[Rookie Yinzer]

Damning article on Biden today in Slate. I can't disagree with their analysis though. The establishment hitched its cart to the wrong horse this time around.

This is what pisses me off about him. He kept a lot of good people from surging or running altogether and now he’s not even going to close the deal. It’s infuriating.

[Rookie Yinzer]

Biden making some last-minute ad spending in California:

https://twitter.com/MediumBuying/status/1234480192585977857

We'll see on Tuesday if this will be enough to make an impact.

They have NO Ground Game. They're outstaffed as CNN noted. You cannot win States like CA purely relying on Surrogates. It's insane people think Biden will do well tomorrow. Even Biden Campaign Aides telling the Media Bernie will have a Delegate lead after tomorrow. That's very telling!

Also, the Map looks very unfavorable for Biden:
On March 10th Idaho, North Dakota (Caucus), Michigan, Washington State and Mississippi are voting. Safe for MS the other 4 States will go to Sanders.

And the next week Biden will steam roll Bernie in Florida and do the same in Georgia the next week.

We haven't even gotten to the extremely friendly Biden states along the ACELA corridor in April. This thing is not over. Especially if Bloomberg drops out and runs a shadow campaign for Biden.

[Rookie Yinzer]

I’m rolling with Joe. The alternative is a self avowed socialist who praises communists but has all the energy in the world to trash Democrats he will need to not only vote for him but vote for his agenda. I’m good.

Kamala endorsement?

I will be f-cking S H O O K

[Rookie Yinzer]

Anyway.... Beto took Biden to What-A-Burger
