Progressives (Liberals)

They just feel that his continuing to campaign as a Democrat after he's shown weakness at the polls jeopardizes our chance to defeat Trump in November.

I don't see any sign that people "hate" Sanders.

In 1981, Sanders made an independent bid for mayor of Burlington as a self-described socialist. He won by 10 votes over the city's Democratic mayor and two other independents, and went on to win three more terms.

"The fact that someone lists themselves as an official independent, not even as a Democrat, except to run for the office of president, and then lists himself as a socialist — that doesn't fly," Biden said on CNN in the run-up to the South Carolina primary, which Biden ended up winning decisively.

"I am not now, nor have I ever been, a liberal Democrat," Sanders said in a 1985 New England Monthly profile, according to Politico.

Sanders continued to clash with the party locally, and his "goal was to destroy Democrats," Maurice Mahoney, the head of Burlington's Democratic Party in the 1980s, told Politico.

After his victory in the Nevada caucuses, Sanders tweeted, "I've got news for the Republican establishment. I've got news for the Democratic establishment. They can't stop us."

At this point, if he decided to go independent, he would have to petition each state to appear on the ballot. That means collecting signatures, paying fees, etc. He might be able to pull that off, he does have some time. Most states allow until July or August to submit the petitions

Which government was prepared?

I thought we were supposed to be the one country that people around the world could look up to, where they'd find inspiration. But it turns out that the "shine" emanating from that "city on the hill" is just the flickering flame of a dumpster fire.

You should be directing that question at McGentrix, not me. He's the one who's saying we're just as bad as everyone else.

I don't recall seeing Gent call the USA a "dumpster fire," eh?

We lead the world with confirmed cases!

We lead the world in "confirmed" cases, because we have now surpassed S. Korea, the supposed "gold standard," and now lead the world in testing for it.

You’re not really this stupid, are you?

We’re almost seven times their population. You’re not really this stupid, are you?

I didn’t say or suggest anything like the US is the worst country. That’s just a deflection from your stupid math.

You’re a drain. And I’m through for this week.
