The Bern has burned out, and the Crazy is closer to being the Democrat nominee
Biden’s ‘Joe-mentum’ grows as Dem front-runner sweeps Midwest contests, eyes Sanders knockout
History didn’t repeat itself in Michigan for Bernie Sanders.
And because of that, the populist U.S. senator from Vermont had an extremely disappointing evening on “Super Tuesday II” — and now faces daunting delegate math that leaves him slipping swiftly out of reach of the Democratic presidential nomination.
Just four years ago, it was in Michigan where Sanders pulled off a historic upset over eventual nominee Hillary Clinton. At the time, the victory kept his White House bid alive.
Fast forward four years later and Sanders – down in the public opinion polls by double digits once again in the Great Lake State – was convincingly defeated by former Vice President Joe Biden.
Four years ago Sanders nearly topped Clinton in Missouri. This time around he lost the state by a nearly 2-to-1 margin to Biden. And the former vice president trounced Sanders in Mississippi and won in Idaho as well.
All in all, Comrade Bernie did not do well. There’s no doubt that the gaffe machine (who also seems to be getting senile) is the clear front runner, and Comrade Bernie’s chances are extremely low at this point. The problem for Bernie? For all the excitement for his candidacy, his actual constituency is small. He never expanded out. He’s primarily motivated the 30 and under crowd, who cannot win a primary for a candidate, and tend to not show up that much, as happened yesterday. Marxist’s like AOC can have a sad all they want, but, they can’t create a big enough coalition.
So, here’s the kind of thing you should look forward to with Joe in command

Yeah, King is a Bernie Bro, but, he’s not wrong. Threatening to slap an American citizen is not OK. Imagine Trump doing this. Imagine the media freakout. Imagine Democrats taking to the House and Senate floors. Instead, the media is loving Joe Biden’s rants about taking ….. AR-14’s? What the heck is that? …. and slapping people.
Good luck running on “I’m going to confiscate your guns”, Joe.
BTW, the person he was shushing was one of his own aides, who was surely attempting to keep Joe out of being a fool. Tough job. Hope she gets paid well.
The Don on Ebola…
In the summer and fall of 2014, Trump posted close to 100 tweets criticizing and, for lack of a better word, weaponizing, the Obama administration’s response to the Ebola crisis. Trump’s tweets included the observation “I know for sure that our leaders are incompetent.” He called Obama “stupid” and suggested that he “personally embrace all people in the US who contract Ebola!” He also callously tweeted that an American medical worker who had contracted Ebola while abroad shouldn’t be allowed back home, arguing that the person should instead “suffer the consequences!”
Democratic turnout in the PRIMARIES was through the roof!
