New poll shows Bernie winning big time

.

If people can actually vote for Bernie and he loses it will be obvious that the democrats stole it from him and then there will be hell to pay. Right?

Someone finally talks about how democrats only use blacks for votes and then they ignore them until needed again.

“I dont want empathy, I dont want folk hugging me, I want policy policy policy”

Now if more people would be honest about Obama's presidency we might get them to wake up and see that electing Biden will just be like Obama never left office and nothing will change if Biden wins or if Trump does.

Who told the media to stop talking about this?

Twitter flags video retweeted by President Trump as ‘manipulated media’

Twitter applied its new “manipulated media” label for the first time on Sunday to a deceptively edited video of former vice president Joe Biden. The video was shared by White House social media director Dan Scavino and retweeted by President Trump.

The video was the first test of a new policy the social media company implemented on March 5 to label tweets that contain manipulated or synthetic media, ranging from edited videos to more sophisticated examples known as “deepfakes” that can fabricate events that never happened.

In this case, the altered video of Biden -- who has surged to the front of the Democratic race to oust Trump in November -- is based on a speech he gave in Kansas City, Mo., on Saturday. It was then shared on Twitter by Scavino, only edited to make it appear as if Biden inadvertently endorsed Trump for reelection.

The version of the video shared by Scavino showed Biden stumbling on a line during a speech, then saying, “Excuse me. We can only re-elect Donald Trump.”

But the edited video deleted the second part of the former vice president’s sentence. The whole thing said: “Excuse me. We can only reelect Donald Trump if in fact we get engaged in this circular firing squad here. It’s gotta be a positive campaign.”

The PTB are pulling out all the stops to make ByeDone look coherent and not a babbling brook.

ByeDone's arrogance sure comes across here and in other videos I've seen on him from the past. I bet he used the power he had as senator as a cudgel. This is in regards to the crime bill that he wrote and got passed. I want him nowhere near the WH!

Biden was still very confused. His wording was all over the place. That's even more evident in the whole extended clip. That's the point. Yea, it was editted by Trumpists. And they will do even worse if Biden is the nominee.

MSM does just as bad and worse when it comes to their coverage of Bernie.

How about how the MSM made it look like there was a Nazi supporter of Bernie flying a Nazi flag at a Bernie rally with Bernie flashing a Seig Heil salute? Executions in Central Park, celebrating Soviet communism, etc., etc., etc. How about the deluge of propaganda from MSM directed against Bernie?

and mixing up his words so much that I couldn't understand what he was actually saying. But the key to my comment is that Twitter is saying that the video was altered when it was not.

BTW here's Hillary spouting off crap again. She talks about how Joe is putting together a coalition.... when hers kinda failed epidemically.

Hillary Clinton accidentally reveals why Joe Biden might lose. "He is doing the work that I mostly did until it dragged on too long..."
Oh look she got her dig in at Bernie. Hey Hills, YOU LOST.

@snoopydawg … And a thought occurred to me that no one has mentioned. At one point, the commentators point to the Mar. 15th debate as kind of "Bernie's last hurrah," but what if the debate doesn't take place? Say Bernie loses Mich. badly, as one recent poll suggests, and throws in the towel. That leaves us with just two candidates, Biden and Tulsi, and we know the DNC has already cut Tulsi out of the debate. And, of course, it would probably be worse to have Biden have to stand up there and talk for an hour on his own -- maybe even worse than having to go one-on-one with Bernie. The problem is, when it comes to the Fall and he has to go one-on-one with Trump, does anyone expect he'll be up to the task? After all, the fewer candidates, more speaking time for each, and the more Biden speaks, the more likely it is that … (yes, you all can finish the sentence)

Twitter is saying that this video was edited to make it look like something different from what Biden said. It wasn't. You can watch the background and see that it flowed smoothly the whole time.

But what we are seeing is that the media is not going to talk about Biden's mental difficulties. People are saying it's Russia manipulating the election again. It is mean Bernie bros attacking Joe and lots of other excuses for how he is not the sharpest knife in the knife rack.

@snoopydawg

But I the video stops in the middle of a sentence, completely changing its meaning.
I find this deceptive- it comes from the Trump camp.

As I said before, there is so much wrong in this speech (and in St. Louis speech a day earlier), that we don't need to fake . In case you missed my earlier comment-

the clip was taken just past 10:00.
the video posted above cuts off the last of Biden's "sentence" and misrepresents what he said.

there is plenty to point to here-

my fave occurs at 18:20 when Joe leaves a black firefighter's hand hanging

the whole speech is just stupid and would sound stupid read by Olivier

More video of the one of him saying we are getting Trump reelected. It's Hillary's health and her emails rolled into one all over again.

But remember folks, there are always tapes. Always.

Speaking of tapes there was one of Corey Booker questions Biden's facalties and then he endorsed ole Joe today. Funny how no one is calling out that or that Kamala ripped Joe for his segregationist views, but now says he is the one we need.

I was looking at the Biden footage above (I don't recall seeing any of the "old" him, I don't remember hearing much about him at all before Obama made him running-mate) and thinking "well I can forgive that, I could see myself talking like that". I mean, I've always been more like Edward Scissorhands than Joe Biden, but how is one to know? Am I just doing what Jon Stewart dubbed "Bullshit of Infinite Possibilities" here?

I somehow sent myself somewhere else while I was in there. I get uncomfortable with being closed in (it's not extreme enough that I'd call it claustrophobia), so I just did a sort of mental thing I often did on the D.C. subway when it was *really* crowded.

The problem is people being able to cast votes, and having those votes counted as they were cast. I can think of no way to insure either of those things happening.

Regarding Biden's cognitive troubles, I don't know that they can keep it hidden. He speaks in public. People have heard the goofs, in person, and during the debates. Isn't that the sort of thing people talk about, gossip about? We'll see.

It's his cognitive functioning, which is rapidly devolving to the level of a toddler. I'm not trying to be snarky. That is what dementia does.

The fact that Biden is suffering from this, and that he is deteriorating rapidly, absolutely needs to be brought to the public's attention. He is not just an ordinary citizen, in which case his cognitive functioning would be no one's business but his family's. No one is saying Biden is bad or shameful for having dementia. We are saying that the POTUS, the "leader of the free world", should not be someone with dementia.

@Centaurea @Centaurea @Centaurea (edited grammar mistakes)
of its own failing mental functions, something I would say is what a lay person would call the onset of dementia, is just not simply age related. I am surrounded by four people all in their late seventies and early eighties. I would say only one of them has the onset of dementia, the other three have not, although they are physically more 'fragile and handicapped' than the one I consider having an onset of dementia. I still haven't understood how extreme stress related conditions mingled up the condition of a dementia. Mental paralyzation through Post Traumatic Stress that happened 7 to 22 years ago vs. memory loss through dementia? Have difficulties to understand what is what.

For example, how can a person have no physical impediments, can play sudoko, read books and be very witty in responding quickly in a way that could make you laugh, showing a quick mind, but at the same time can not realize that, when talking about a subject, that is not related to current times, but happened twenty years ago.

Or that a person walks to ktichen to get a coffee, makes the coffee and then forgets that there is the coffee ready to drink directly afterwards. Forgetting things from one moment to the next is baffling me. Asking someone if she/he wants to eat, getting the answer 'no, I am not hungry' and then one minute afterwards saying 'I think I want to ead something now'.

I am supposedly better off being a couple of years younger than them, but there are people at least 12 years older than me, who seem to have a better memory. Though I realize they all have difficulties to realize when a new situation has evolved surrounding their daily routines in their lives. They keep being stuck in the situations that were once upon a time correctly seen, but can't make the switch to recognize the changes that happened. I could make examples but don't want to talk about them, because the persons involved are still living.

That situation is incompatible with dementia. Other aberrant mental processes are at work.

And the dementia is likely to get worse in the next few months. What kind of condition will he be in at the July convention four months from now, let alone for the fall campaign? Dementia patients don't get better.

It's about the fact that it's a really REALLY bad idea to have someone in that office who is not mentally competent. We already went through that once with Reagan in his second term, and Biden looks worse to me than that now. At least Reagan, for part of that time, knew that he was running for President and then that he was President. Well, he seemed to.

It has nothing to do with how old somebody is; it has to do with whether they've suffered that particular scourge or not.

But at this point I don't care if Liz doesn't endorse Bernie. If she goes with Biden or stays neutral it just shows more of how she wasn't who she was pretending to be. This is going to be a costly mistake for her when she is up for reelection again. People barely gave her a pass for sitting on the fence last time. They will not forget what she is doing now.

played by some crazed conductors

even entered the race, but was leader in the polls.

Manufacturing consent.

This is what I feel is hard still. They are rigging it right in front of us.

That's the worst one. Though not being able to remember the most famous quotation from the Declaration of Independence is also really bad. As is not being able to remember Obama's name.

But the fact that he said he was running for the Senate should be all that's necessary. And yes, we should be scrupulous as to fact simply because the shitheads at the DNC and the media will call into question every other instance of cognitive decline if they can credibly cast doubt on any of them. That's the way this shitpile called corporate legacy media works: at about the level of middle-school gossip.

Calling up an Oprah Winfrey for the fem/color role.
Bit too late for the Condoleezza Rice routine.
Maybe too early for the Michelle Obama retinue.

@QMS

In the NYT article where it talked about all the super delegates not voting for Bernie if he wins the primary Harris and Michelle were floated as the dream team to go up against Trump.

If Michelle is on the ballot thought that will bring every Trump voter out even if they no longer support him because many of the think that she is actually a HE named Michael. Oh yeah I wish I was kidding. But they have thought that since Obama first started running.

Saagar says that too many people here cannot go back to an Obama era with Biden because of how much the country was hallowed out during their tenure. I agree with this wholeheartedly because Obama let the middle class try to find a piece of wood after their boat sank while sending the coast guard to bail out the upper class. Wealth inequality went up to levels not seen since the great depression during Joe and MyBoss' crime spree administration.

This is why Bernie is getting so many people out to listen to his message and why they are not being allowed to vote in a fair election. I think there will be hell to pay if there is enough evidence it was rigged. Good luck democrats keeping the house or getting the senate ever again because people will have finally given up.
