    The Beavis look alike just may be correct. Bernie sure does point his finger a lot. Bernie is unelectable except for the very poor and illegals used to his brand of socialism/communism.

    Our economy is way too good for anyone to unseat Trump for the next four years. 56% of Americans have 401(k)'s. They have seen their retirement accounts grow by leaps and bounds since the 2016 election. Mine has... If Sanders is the nominee, Trump will wipe the floor with him.

    Bloomberg should drop out now, before he really embarrasses himself. What a whiny hypocrite, pointing fingers at everyone else as losers of the debate...

    In ignorance, I thought he'd be okay. Why I left common sense out of that decision, I don't know. I guess I thought that a bank balance made a good POTUS. Obviously not...on both sides.

    So....me....down here......is up for someone else.

    Bloomers is an awful candidate. He is in the correct party for that.

    Yes, he did point fingers at everyone. Not "everyone else". Or did you already forget that he was a part of the debates also? He's putting himself down just as much in that comment of his.

    Four more years of 1 or 2 trillion deficits each year is going to make 401 (k)'s.

    All those 401k will be a good use for toilet paper after increasing our debt 50%.

    Of course, billionaires don't care because all their money is in real estate and untaxed long term investments that don't even pay enough on their taxes to match the taxes a warehouses forklift driver has to pay.

    Republicans have utterly flipped over all of the worthwhile goals Republicans used to have!

    Amazing!

    Bernie is a true believer in his rhetoric. Which is at least as important as the rhetoric itself. Thats a lot of what got Trump elected: sincerity. Bernie has it, Bloomberg doesn't. Neither does Warren or Buttigiregigiegeig either. Biden is basically just running on 'I'll do whatever the establishment wants.'

    Bernie is dangerous. But its because he actually means what he says, and that resonates with folks. And scares the **** out of the political elites. They're gonna do everything they can to tank him. But as we learned with Trump- they can't tank a landslide.

    Bernie is to Dems in 2020 what Trump was to the GOP in 2016.

    If the GOP gets over-confident, they could fall into the same trap that the Dems did in '16.

    this makes me think that you have never, ever, looked at a billionaires tax return.

    you should do that, it might open your eyes.

    Not even close. Bernie has enthusiasm, but not even party wide. The number of never Trumpers is way less than capitalists in the Democrat party. You folks are seeing what you want to see, not what's actually there. Even your own hyper-lib pundits don't want Bernie on the ticket...

    They are caught up in primary fever.

    It's basically batting practice when they hit HR after HR. Then the game stars, the opposing pitcher throws real pitches and everything falls back into reality.

    I can tell you if Sanders won I'd take all my money out of the stock market, probably move it into real estate.

    is Bloomberg's out yet? he released them as mayor if old ones will help.

    I'll bet big money that Bloomberg paid more in personal taxes than any random fork lift operator. actually he probably paid more in property tax alone than a random forklift operator made in income.

    And people were doing a lot better in 2016, than they were going in 2012. Unemployment fell from 8% to 4.5%.

    Yeah, that doesn't look petty to the average adult, right? I like Trump's reply. If that is what Bloomberg's platform looks like he's screwed.

    He's just a little outta touch. He shows his ignorance about people in a multitude of ways. The shame of it all is that he just squanders all that money on garbage with little to no results.

    Peanuts compared to what comrade Bernie has in mind for you.

    All told, Sanders’s current plans would cost as much as $97.5 trillion over the next decade, and total government spending at all levels would surge to as high as 70 percent of gross domestic product. Approximately half of the American workforce would be employed by the government. The ten-year budget deficit would approach $90 trillion, with average annual deficits exceeding 30 percent of GDP.

    Sounds like a joke and it is but there are some really stupid people out there 'hoping' Bernie's promises will come true if they just wish hard enough.

    Like Amazon did in 2018 and 2019? $0.00

    I wish I could but since that is the direction this forum has been taken by the redhats and allowed I must go with the flow... thanks for the suggestion though — feel free to keep them to yourself.
