I told y'all if bring it in before Super Tuesday results started pouring in. And now that the Democratic field has dropped exponentially in the last couple of weeks, hell, days, we're starting to get a clearer yet still muddled look at what November will be like. RULES: ANYONE WHO INCESSANTLY BREAKS THESE SIMPLE RULES WILL BE PERMABANNED. This thread is open for debate amongst the masses, but certain lines need drawn before we even begin. 1. No fighting. Debates are welcome, but there is a difference. 2. No harassment. 3. No trolling. 4. No goading/baiting. 5. No spamming. 6. No putting words in people's mouths. 7. Keep your cool. 8. Know when to pick your battles. 9. Know when to back down. This might all seem trivial, but you'd be surprised what just a small amount of decorum can do for political talks. At any time, myself and ~*Young $ Money*~ reserve the right to locking this up as needed. We're gonna try to not make it permanent, but we all know someone's gonna jump off the deep end and cause the thread to have to be cleaned up. If we ask you to chill on something, and you don't, you're just gonna get permabanned. In the grand scheme of things, Ant and I aren't asking for all that much, especially considering how hot button this is going to be. But for what we ask, just please abide by to the best of your abilities. Nivro™ and I disagree on just about every major political stance one could have. Nivro and I still talk civilly, and only hate each other on election day. Be like Niv and myself.

Surprised to see the 3 dropouts this weekend. Mayor Pete had some momentum. NY's 3 term Mayor the major flip-flopper Bloomberg is still in it. Lost respect after he told Rudy that he couldn't run for a 3rd term when everyone dubbed Rudy Americas Mayor, and he does it, and switching party allegiances every-time he saw fit to do. Should really be an interesting few months until the election.

Trump is going to absolutely destroy Biden.

Trump is going to absolutely destroy Biden. Don't tell the DNC that, or they'll push him further into the spotlight. They care for their pockets, not popular opinion.

I hope we get a president who is not a disgrace. Not saying I disagree, but those types of things are not helpful.

I don’t want to be overconfident and say that this’ll be a Trump landslide, but I don’t see Trump losing come November. Bernie’s adoration for actual dictators or Biden’s constant gaffes (150 million gun deaths since 2007!?) will be Trump’s main point of attack if they become the nominee, and he hits pretty hard when he does attack. I don’t see Pocahontas getting the nominee. She’s extremely unlikeable and has a habit of playing the race and gender card anytime she can. Bloomberg just seems to be there for a lol rather than a serious interest in becoming president. When he doesn’t get the nominee, it’ll be interesting to see if the winner will accept his money if he chooses to donate.
Has Bernie given a price tag yet of how much his policies will cost? It’s obviously going to cost trillions, tens of trillions. Even if the democrats take the house and senate later this year, I don’t see them allocating that much money. He’s basically campaigning on ideas that aren’t achievable.
Quick note, let’s keep this civil everyone. It is possible to disagree with someone without having a go at them.

I saw a friend post this yesterday and it rang true
I'm interested to see how things play out today. I made a huge mistake in not voting in 2016 because I wasn't thrilled with the choices. This year, I'm all in on Bernie but I'll vote for anyone over Trump.

I'm glad that I live in a state that gets to vote before the DNC initiates their quadrennial self-destruct sequence. I'm also glad that I live in a state that gives me the option to register as "none of the above" while allowing me to decide which primary I'll vote in, come primary day. It must feel like absolute sh*t to have voted early in a Super Tuesday state for a candidate who decided to drop out to satiate the machine in the interim. I'm glad that even though my first choice dropped out prior to my state's primary, my backup had the decency to have stuck around 'til after the polls closed, knowing that he'd already gone through the effort to get on the ballot.

What qualifies as a disgrace? I know Trump isn't bright but having a smart war criminal isn't better than having a dumb war criminal. All Presidents are bad and I'm not sure who the last good one was but it's been a very long time. It's literally a lesser of two evils. Do we want a person who aspires to be a war criminal or someone who is already a war criminal? I think it's like Trump vs Bloomberg. Bloomberg hides everything Trump is behind a facade so people like him better but they are virtually the same.
