Nothing is bringing down Biden.

...Trump is safe then.

 

[Florida Man]

Sample size of 5000 registered voters for a national poll is pretty small though?

Yeah in my view Trump best shot of winning is against Biden(Not to forget that Biden will be basically republican light if he wins). Truth is large parts of the Dem base have just awful politics.
Long way to go but at the moment Gore Vidal comes to mind - ''There is no left in the United States, there is only reactionaries and conservatives''

Biden is much further right than Obama.
And yes. he will simply bend over to the Republicans.

Medicare for All is huge for the Democratic base.
Most other candidates want to claim some form of attachment to M4A.
Biden is dead against it.

Its the leading issue with Democrats. Though Climate Change should be. New Green Deal.

The Rally Saturday should be pretty interesting.

Morning Consult has consistently had Biden higher than other poll. Their last one was Biden+12 so he actually dropped in this one.

These two come across like a bad SNL sketch

Is it ? Its been a while since I checked the polling but I remember posting some polls showing that republican voters understand more about Medicare for All than democrats. Plus national polling is somewhat similar in that it depends completely on how you frame Medicare for All. Certain framings have americans loving it others have them against it.

And if Medicare for All is huge for the Democratic base why is Biden still 10 points a head ?

These two come across like a bad SNL sketch

There are good ones ?

 

[InfiniteBoredom]

Biden isn’t 10 points ahead, nor is Trump’s approval in the 50s.

Always go off averages.

Hey! I'm a member of the British Labour Party, picking one off polls is the only thing I've got left.

Luckily I'm Irish so I can always jump off. Although there's a certain comfort and charm about living in quickly decaying society like Britain, which I'm sure I would miss if I left. Yes the life boats on the titanic were all dry and secure but boy did that sinking ship have one hell of a violin band.

this guy is a chameleon who has planned and executed his adult life into a speed-run for high office. biden and his dementia are far more endearing; i hope beto destroys him in the battle of awful one-liners; i hope tom steyer uses all his cash to specifically attack pete.

It does seem like there’s something going on with her, she’s getting a lot of positive attention from right wing bots on social media.

I just don’t think it’s the Russians though as it’s not a great tactic to keep Trump in as it’s the right wing echo chamber that’s getting full visibility and it’s more likely if she ran as an independent that it will be the moderate Republicans that she steals from Trump rather than the independents that she steals from a Democrat.

It’s much more likely it’s Israel backing her IMO.

Will you recant your words and embrace Hillary Clinton in your heart if Tulsi Gabbard does run a third-party candidate?

Hillary Clinton has been my friend for over a decade

 

[Red Dreams]

Hillary probably thinks.
"Heck. I cannot lose to Trump this time? He is committing crimes in the open?"

She’s a fake friend and a clout chaser.

 

[Raoul]

No doubt Tulski will be fundraising off of this.

On the surface it doesn't seem smart for the Dems to yet again play the holier than thou with Gabbard. I know it shouldn't be a factor but I think she would be a massive force for the Republicans if they ever convince her to switch sides.

 

[sport2793]

Can't stand Clinton but she may not be entirely wrong. If I was Putin I would encourage it. A win-win scenario imo for them.

 

[Eboue]

Its absurd and she has presented zero evidence for it. People who will vote gabbard third party aren't going to vote for klobuchar or buttchug in any scenario you can come up with it.

gabbard sucks and no one really likes her so why is the previous nominee attacking her on the one area that she is sort of okay in? its almost hard to imagine how democrats lose elections

She’s likely not wrong but it may not have anything to do with Tulsi’s intent and everything to do with her strange positions, which gives Russian troll campaigns a perfect staging point for their usual divide and conquer tactics. Stein and Gabbard are just useful idiots in this regard.

Thank God Hilary didnt win

 

[Redplane]

Gabbard is not doing herself many favors with that tweet. I dislike Hillary with a passion but with the tweet Gabbard made she seems to add to the suspicion, not dispel it.

Thank God Hilary didnt win

Thank god for Trump!
