    I'd say I had more proof than did Adam Schiff for when he guaranteed he had proof of collusion between Trump and Russia for two hole years.

    From projection to deflection in two posts. Thats about the size of it from what i can see.

    I'm as surprised as Captain Louis was to find there was gambling going on in Rick's establishment.

    Just use commons sense, man. If the democrats are hopping the coronavirus will hurt trump politically it only comes to reason they are hoping the virus will spread in the US. That IS the only way it will hurt Trump.

    That's not common sense that's ranting and raving.

    Only Trump could make a potential pandemic all about him.

    Absolute dotard.

    lol. Liberals are in no position to be suggesting the Trump is either not taking the coronavirus serious enough or making it all about him, sure only four weeks ago the left were whinging about how white the coronavirus task force was ffs:

    Could it be Mayor Pete for a VP position? The rumours were that it was Stacey Abrams to lose.

    He would be the absolute opposite to the current one.

    Sure they are both from Indiana. In other respects would agree with you.

    I thought Buttigieg would stick it out until after the Super Tuesday results. Probably the realization that he would soon be running out of money and there were already too many other center-left candidates in the race (Biden, Bloomberg, and Klobuchar). Looks like the viable democrats are now whittled down to three… Sanders, Biden, and Bloomberg. But really only two because the democrats will most probably not allow Sanders to be their nominee as he could cause other democrats in tight House and Senate races to lose.

    You can ignorantly accuse me of "whataboutism," but what it really is involves identifying similar scenarios in order to see if it holds up when the shoe is on the other foot!

    Buttigieg was just dipping his toe.

    It was a miracle he did as well as he did.

    His goal was recognition, which he got more than he bargained for.

    Fair play him, I imagine it's upwards and on wards for him and maybe a crack again in the future.

    Have to say this was a little surprising, Sanders is the next most popular candidate among Pete's voters (after Buttigieg himself), with Biden and Warren tied after that.
    Twenty-one percent of Buttigieg supporters who participated in the poll, which saw a total of 13,428 Democratic primary voters surveyed, said they would go for Sanders as a second choice.

    However, the other top candidates in the Democratic race did not fall far behind in claiming support from the Buttigieg base.

    Nineteen percent of Buttigieg supporters said they would they would support former Vice President Joe Biden, while the same share said they would throw their weight behind Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren, if the former mayor were to drop out of the race.

    Seventeen percent said they would back former New York City Mayor Mike Bloomberg.

    Probably bodes well for Buttigiegs viability in future elections, in terms of how ideologically diverse (in terms of the democrat spectrum) his voter base appears.

    But what will he do to keep his image in out in the forefront going into the future? Dropping out early would probably have guaranteed him an administration post (like UN ambassador), but only if a democrat candidate wins the general election… which ain’t happening. A spot with the DNC wouldn't be enough. I guess he could always run for congress or the senate when the spots came up, but he'd most probably be fighting an incumbent.

    Did you know how loyal Outlaw Pete is to Trump? Very loyal, so loyal, the most loyal. Just look at his posts. Those are the posts of unquestioning loyalty, so don't go thinking you can trick him into answering questions that might lead to anything other than unadulterated adoration for and loyalty to the leader.

    I know each of these words in isolation but have no idea what they're meant to mean in combination.

    I think Joe Biden actually believes his fabrications. It’s an age thing where the mind is starting to forget things. He mixes parts of something that actually happens with what his mind makes up and it becomes his new reality. Please, will the family of Joe convince him to end this and put us all out of our misery.

    Do you think dotard believes his fabrications or are his thousands of lies on purpose?

    Sleepy Joe was very excited yesterday, you'd almost think he genuinely believes he has a chance.

    If sleepy Joe and comrade Bernie are the best the Dems have to offer Trump can rest easy knowing he has 4 more years in office.

    Klobuchar’s left the building! That leaves four standing on the Dem ticket. Sanders (I-Socialist), Biden (D-State of Confusion), Bloomberg (I-Billionaire), and Warren (D-1/1024th Native American).

    Warren will probably be next to leave... after she secures the VP slot with one of the candidates.
