oh, and Bernie's tours are just to promote himself for 2020, while O'Malley's are actually to help win elections for Dems. So. I'll take that every day of the week.

 

Alright Reddy, your trolling knows no bounds. Just stop it man, you sound like a bitter ridiculous hater. Bernie is one of the most liked politicians out there, that is an irrefutable fact. No matter how much you try to discredit him, that will not change. He is working for the people who elected him and some.

 

Bernie is a beast.

The thing is, if Dems decided to be remotely as awful as the GOP they could turn around and say "Roy Moore and the RNC want to rape your child out of the womb"

Democrats not realizing that "playing nice" and ~decorum~ don't matter, at least at this point, is going to result in them continuing to get their asses kicked.

 

Jones gets it.

What policies does Martin O'Malley even back? I have nothing really against him, it's just what does he even stand for?

All sorts of good stuff. And he's very anti-DNC after last year. He's a great middle ground pick that all sides of the Democratic Party should have no problem with.

I have no problem being called a "hater". I pretty much ignore the opinion of anyone who uses that phrase. :lol:

Sanders' moment has passed, largely due to age and the fact that foreign policy issues are going to be even more and more critical with the way Trump is running the country (and that's Bernie's biggest weak point).

 

That said, he's right up there in the "Holy Trinity" with Biden and the Obamas, with Elizabeth Warren arguably #4 in terms of national star power on the Democratic side. Biden also has more symbolic power...as soon as he starts to run an actual campaign, he manages to upset more and more with his "foot in mouth" moments.

 

There needs to be new blood to contrast with Trump's physical/deterioration. Looking at the numbers, another woman makes sense, but right now the choice is far from clear. Still have at least 2 years for someone to emerge...whether the opponent is Trump, Pence or Ryan.

 

It's most certainly NOT going to be Martin O'Malley or Tim Kaine.

George Soros' nefarious operatives are descending on Alabama in droves in the final week...guess we had to check the "anti-(bad) Jew" box this week.

 

How many times have we heard that conspiracy theory repeated in the last decade or so?

 

Just wait until they find out that Kushner and Soros were business partners.

A Breitbart story in September about a “George Soros-backed organization attacking Roy Moore.” The story was actually about the Campaign Legal Center, a nonpartisan legal group that’s received funding from Soros’ son, filing a complaint against Moore’s foundation for violating laws relating to charities.

 

Just last week, Breitbart, a conservative website that serves as a platform for white nationalists, posted a story titled “Soros Army in Alabama to Register Convicted Felons to Vote Against Roy Moore.” In reality, the story was just about the American Civil Liberties Union helping register felons to vote in Alabama. Felons in the state recently regained a legal right to vote.

 

The conspiracies are clearly affecting Moore’s supporters, some of whom told HuffPost last week that they think Soros is paying women to accuse Moore of sexual misconduct.

This is a real touchy subject for Jewish people. I don't know him personally, but this probably has nothing to do with political teams.

 

For thousands of years the Jewish people have tried to get back control of the Old Temple, it's an entire faith system built on this very specific goal.

 

I'm not going to weigh on on what is right or wrong, or who has the better claim, but I can understand why Schumer would support this.

 

I personally think this is a political stunt and that it's not leading to the annexation of East Jerusalem, so what is the point of creating a mess for symbolism.

Trump Has Privately Decided the Sexual-Assault Allegations Against Roy Moore Are Bunk

 

Rapists gotta stand together

 

President Donald Trump has privately told confidants over the past week that he firmly believes Roy Moore’s innocence and feels no hesitation at all about endorsing the embattled Alabama Senate candidate, three sources close to the president tell The Daily Beast.

 

Trump’s conviction sets him apart from other Republicans—including some Moore supporters —who have said they trust the accounts of the numerous women who have accused the former chief justice of the state Supreme Court of preying on them sexually when they were teenagers.

 

“This is not something he’s struggling with,” one senior White House official told The Daily Beast of Trump.

 

The president has even begun adopting some of Moore’s more outlandish lines of defense to push back against accusations that the candidate’s guilt is beyond question.

 

Two of the sources, one working in the Trump administration and the other a friend of the president, noted that in recent conversations Trump has begun to stress that the “Roy Moore, D.A.” signature in the yearbook of a woman who publicly accused the candidate of sexual assault, is a likely forgery. The president has found the signature suspicious, according to these sources. Moore has stressed this, too. Experts, for their part, disagree.

Well, time for Franken to go. Too much at this point to only be something weird with Roger Stone involved.

 

He should been ousted weeks ago. Of course he'll stay and fight it most likely proving once again politicians are hypocrites.
