And Trump wins PA. I will be asking everybody who voted for him how they felt about voting for a man with no experience holding public office, and why experience means nothing to them, then I'll probably corner them into stating they will never consider experience a factor in any election ever again, then I'll chug a beer, then I'll ask them about his numerous failed business ventures, then I'll chug a beer, then I'll make a belligerent comment about his daughter and wife.

majority of millennials view capitalism unfavorably. Sanders has changed the entire conversation in liberal America and he will continue to pull the Democratic Party to the left. As I've said before, he's not a moron, do you think he didn't honestly know his chances at winning were slim? It's a longer game than that, which is kind of the entire theory behind "bee sting" candidates. The more he fights, the longer he stays in, the stronger he makes the Democrats overall. The percentage of his supporters who won't vote Clinton likely would not have voted anyway, or would have given their vote to a far more irrelevant person like Jill Stein. Clinton is a far stronger candidate today than she was a few months ago, and that is largely because of competition with Sanders.
The only serious downside to him not throwing in the towel at this point is that she's spending money to fend him off. Regardless, she would probably beat Trump with no advertising whatsoever. He will be the weakest presidential candidate in modern history. |

Most Americans actually do want a form of socialism when you break it down for them.
They want the rich to pay more in taxes, they want universal healthcare, they want more funding for education, they want an increasing minimum wage and a decreasing wealth gap These things are just blocked by the largely bought out Congress |

The country as a whole is much further to the left than is represented by our government we just have a ridiculous form of representation that gives a lot of power to places with small isolated 100 years behind the times populations
In addition to that, people pay less than zero shits about local elections making it super super easy to basically purchase seats. The candidate who raises more money will pretty much always win a state or local election. |

That pictures awesome. It's only a matter of time before the powers that be censor the internet. Hillary's already alluded to doing that in subtle ways.

I do not generally offer anecdotal evidence when we are talking about something quantitative, but I would happy to remind you of the fact that a majority of people want Citizens United overturned, want universal background checks on guns, want an increased federal minimum wage, want immigration reform, etc. yet these things are not reflected in the political breakdown of Congress. The Founders went out of their way to give disproportionate voice to smaller, more rural communities out of fear of "tyranny of the majority." Again, maybe you should have paid more attention in high school government. |

-Everyone at the beginning said: "Trumps a joke and he's just there for some publicity and at least he'll help the debate ratings"- Then he surged and everyone said "well, people really like him, but they're not actually gonna vote for him"- Trump does really well in the primaries then it's: "ahh he's just a fad, he's gonna fizzle out and everyone will come to their senses. Trump then ends up being the clear front-runner and people say "well he's not gonna get enough deligates, he'll lose at a convention". And after sweeping 5 victories at this past "super Tuesday" it looks like Trumps well on his way to being the nominee. Voting in the Republican party has been up 70% since the last voting cycle and the Democratic voting has been down 30%. Trumps leading a pretty incredible political movement here and the medias been quick to dismiss him at every turn. This idea that Hillary Clinton is going to have a walk in the park against him just isn't the case. Yes, she's clearly the favorite to win, but it's definitely not an outcome set in stone. |

Well all of the polling showed that Trump had no shot at being the nominee. How'd that turn out?

I think it's interesting to point out that a lot of people who were dead-set on electing an outsider in Sanders are likely more willing to switch over to Trump than Hillary.

Experience? You mean like the glorified JC prof currently in office? Hand-picked CIA operative with a made up history and family and you took the bait hook, line and sinker. No worries, for a time I thought the Bush family were american patriots and all. This was before I learned about all their drug running, war profiteering, election rigging, false-flagging and worse. Them and the Clintons are tied up in all sorts of rackets. It's why she's not in jail right now and the establishment needs her in to keep their criminal empire going. Trump isn't under the Rothchilds thumb as well and even the Koch brothers can't stand him. Those are big plusses in my book. But that's a nuanced position, not some kneejerk b.s. I doubt you'd get it, lest you stop looking at the facade and try to discern what's really going on. |

![]() At least the Republicans en masse had enough sense to throw Jeb under the bus early on. I suspect the Dems did as well against the Clintons, but the election rigging on the Dem side has been too much to overcome. |
