Not everyone enjoys being mocked and ridiculed like I do89ute said:A lot of Dems are not going to show up to vote. Mainly, the Biden Dems. Iowa turnout was lackluster. I think Biden's base (centrist, older school Dems) gave up many months ago when they saw their candidate was a fucking senile drooler. I also think these people will not swing over to Bernie. They'd rather see Trump and their will vote will be a no vote. Helps Trump.
Bernie's got the most active, vocal, energized base. Not nearly enough in my opinion. Plus, some, possibly many of the flakey fucks won't actually vote.
Furthermore, I think there are a hell of a lot silent Trump voters.
IRL there are a few PMs I work with that are for Trump and we huddle away from everyone speaking in hushed tones about the race so we don't get sent to the camps

I will agree there are lots of silent Trump voters. No way are people like @YellowSnow and I wearing MAGA hats but come election time it's pretty clear we aren't voting for socialismo.

People laughed at Trump getting the nomination because they thought he personally was a joke not because they thought that people didn't support the policies he was promoting. There are a number of policies being promoted by Bernie that large numbers of people do not support.Doogles said:
I don't know about all that or pretend to be a political guru, just my average Joe millennial take that was right before.SFGbob said:
Great, and there will be a shit ton of 40-60 something's who will be inspired to vote against Bernie. Bernie has come out against fracking. Do you think that helps him in Pennsylvania? Do you think that Unionized auto workers want to give up their private health insurance in order to go on some government form of healthcare?Doogles said:
I get that, but I think you're under estimating how many 20-30 something's would be inspired to vote for Bernie. I see it on my feed every day. A lot of smart kids sitting on 100k of student loan debt upset at the world trying to be woke.SFGbob said:
Every professional liberal who has made a few bucks and would like to keep some of them isn't going to vote for Bernie. They may not vote for Trump but they certainly aren't going to vote for Bernie and his "free" shit for everyone party.Doogles said:
In my little average Joe bubble that sniffed out a Trump win back in 2015 in spite what my media was telling me, I have the same instinct Bernie would be a real problem.RaceBannon said:
I think this is true simply because his voters seem to give a shit and will show upDoogles said:The irony is Bernie gives them their best shot.
They would show up, plus the 'anyone but Trump' sentiment is strong enough to pull the middle left.
I think Trump and Bernie are different sides of the same anti establishment coin. Go back and watch the YouTube videos of everyone laughing at the notion Trump would get the nomination let alone the presidency.
You sound a lot like they did. I think there is something there. -
I won't vote for the Dem nominee and I'm through with progressives until the the needles, poop, tents and RVs are gone from my neighborhood.UW_Doog_Bot said:I will agree there are lots of silent Trump voters.

Whether I go 2 silver dollar libertariantard or Trump will depend on the State of the Union in Nov 2020. -
Bernie isn't going to turn out the black vote either. Yeah they'll vote for him because he has a D after his name but there isn't going to be energetic support for him coming from blacks.89ute said:A lot of Dems are not going to show up to vote.

Pretty much where I'm at. My best guess is I'll be voting Libertarian again but it's really meaningless which I choose in the Sipp.YellowSnow said:
