Pay attention

Greg Sargent is one of the best reporters around, and if he’s telling you it’s important, it is:

One thought on “Pay attention

  1. Trump is a goner in nine months because, to turn a phrase, nobody likes him.

    He’s not what the Democrats should be worrying about.
    What the Neo-liberal, Establishment wing of the Democratic Party is up to is what Democrats should be worried about.

    Bernie, Warren and Buttigieg received 70+% of the Iowa vote between them.
    Biden and Klobuchar received the other 30%.

    Both Bernie and Warren support Medicare For All, while Buttigieg supports “Medicare For All Who Want It.”
    Buttigieg is the brand new, shiny object and an anomaly who will quickly fade.

    Yesterday on MSNBC the 75 year old, Neo-liberal James Carville, went on a rant about Bernie and how his front-runner status was bad for the Democratic Party.
    How the big money donors and corporate sponsors would be keeping their hands in their pockets from here on out. (Good)

    But, Carville said, that if Bernie was the nominee “I’ll vote for him.” It’s either that or vote for Trump.

    Then the rant got interesting when Carville went on to say that Bloomberg is running a unique campaign that we should all watch.

    Yesterday the Democratic Governor of Rhode Island, Gina Raimondo, who is the Chair of the Democratic Governors Association, threw her support behind Bloomberg’s campaign.

    The Democratic Neo-liberal, Establishment seems to be freaking out because Bernie or Warren, if elected, might bring us a “radical Socialist health care system” (as Trump reminded us last night), more environmental regulations, and a tax increase on the rich.

    Sanders and Warren are the candidates best positioned to win the Democratic nomination because of their policies and then go on to beat Trump in November.

    Bloomberg is a wealthy, corrupt oligarch and huckster just like Trump.
