Bernie Sanders 2020 campaign megathread

[Starbucks Union Thug HokeyPuck]

Today Bernie filed for re-election...in 2024 as an Independent.

He also had a pretty rough time on a black radio show, stumbled a lot on reparations questions and other things.

Bernie didn't merit an passing of introducing renaming post office bills? Very sad!

He also didn't turn over undocumented youth to ICE and then lie about it like your idol Harris. Sad!

Leads Harris in every national and state poll and her supporters have to cherrypick out-of-context blurbs off Donut Twittersphere.  SAD!

I bet a lot of people won't mention the "given a clean bill of health" part.

Nope.  They don’t have much to cling to other than their shrieking about Bernie did this and Bernie said that.  Sad state of affairs, folks.

[Starbucks Union Thug HokeyPuck]

No idea on Harris.

2.400 in Houston and 3.000 in Atlanta were her best AFAIK.

Her announcement had something like 20,000, I beleive. More than Bernie’s

I must have missed the part were Oakland left California. Because that was my point to begin with, that she does draw in comparison mediocre crowds outside her home state. And seriously if Bernie gets 75% of the crowd size she had at her first rally in her home state that wouldn't be something I would brag about if I was a Harris supporter.

They brag about polls where she’s in single digits... what do you expect?  Talk about a personality cult!

Does anyone feel like the number of times they’d been laid breaks the laws of reality and actually gets lower every time they read one of these posts by friendless anti-Bernie teenagers in this thread?  I can’t even fathom being so low energy that Bernie Sanders’ “condescending” nature upsets me.  You must need some kind of multi-layer Safe Space Inception thing to be going on if you ever step out of the house.

Naturally, Bernie is being relentlessly attacked by corporate media hacks even after releasing his taxes, so there’s the proof these babies will never be satisfied unless they get their way.  

[Starbucks Union Thug HokeyPuck]

Bernie really had a amazing day. Owning Fox News on single payer, leading in the Emerson poll, and showing that his taxes were pretty boring.

Wise words, jfern.  Truly a spectacular day in political history.  The anti-Bernie people surely cried themselves to sleep last night.

[Starbucks Union Thug HokeyPuck]

Yeah, the list is pretty great.  Read the descriptions.

Seriously, I can't fathom why Atlas doesn't lap this stuff up. Bernie is like a candidate tailor-made for the demographics of this site and yet Dems on here shun him just to be counter-edgy.

When you have the mindset that these teenagers have where the Democratic Party is their (only) friend it’s easy to see why they hate Bernie.

Back on this, eh?  Utterly sad.  Get some friends and go outside or something.

Quoting a paper that does nothing but run hit pieces on Bernie?  Cool.  Guess this is what you do when your candidate is in utter collapse.

Leave the conspiracy theories to Trump and the Republicans.

Harris being in freefall is a conspiracy?  Must be those dastardly Bernie Bros!

Your crowd is attacking the free press because Your Guy isn't doing that exceptional in a field of more inspired candidates. Washington Post has been the most trusted newspaper for over 45 years and now you want to go after it's existence for questioning a politician? Go after the Fox News and Russia Today's, don't got all fizzle with a news source that has been reporting the truth.

If 5% is "inspired" what is 20%?  Asking for a friend.

Bernie is polling 8% on Democratic Underground poll right now. Not a good look for someone that is running in a extended field and has considerable name recognition.

Still higher than Harris in many actual polls.

But you’re right.  Utterly dire.  Time to pack it in.  Next you’ll tell me he’s underwater over at moveon.org.

Well, if we want to cite random user polls from the Internet, the Q2 poll on Atlas After Dark has Bernie Sanders at 38% (and Harris at 5%). Got 'em.

Harris got votes on that?

Pack it in, fellow Bernie Bros.  Bernie was cranky at dinner.  Talk about an August Surprise!

EDIT: hahahahahahahahaha... the anti-Sanders crowd here is, somehow, vastly more lame than even Twitter.

I posted this to comment on how stupid the commentary on bernie was lol I support bernie still I just thought the article was funny

One must substantiate that in this teeming hive of anti-Sanders fervor.  There are quite a few here who would post that article, tears streaming down their face and Hot Pocket in hand, with the expectation that Bernie 2020 had just been dealt a death blow.

Bernie gotta stop just eliminating the debt of things he dont like

You meant "correcting injustices" ya bootlickin' goober.

[Starbucks Union Thug HokeyPuck]

Congrats, Old Atlas.  Bernie Sanders said poor people in underdeveloped countries should have access to contraception and you are among the 15 people on the planet pearl-clutching over it.

Go outside.

Loser of the night, ladies and gentleman...

Jack Monroe over here has spoken, folks.  Time to put the ol' campaign to bed.
