    Does this help or hurt the left for 2020? All we need is Hillary to run again....

    Wonder if he announced this from his 2nd or 3rd home after he pulled up in his $100k car?

    It's a good gig when you can get it - run for office, promise everyone free everything so they'll vote for you and then get paid off when you drop out.

    Hey, the radical left took over California using that principle, so, why not?

    Totally EXPECTED.

    Not even newsworthy (in the least).

    Looks like a thread that was created just to give PF's RW usual suspects a chance to throw repetitive copypasta shade at their Obsessed-Over Bogeyman ("The Big Bad Left").

    What's next?

    A RW-created thread about how the Sun is going to rise tomorrow? :bored:

    That's what I appreciate in the american electoral systeme, at the opposite of some countries (like mine France), you don't see the same loosers again and again. Al Gore didn't tried to be elected again, neither did Mitt Romney or John Mc Cain.

    If you start to get the same loosers again and again, you're wasted.

    The younglings will still vote for him.

    IMO it would help the right if they just let him run again.

    bernie sanders, who has been a senator for 11 years, will never win. this man who has been elected to several offices? the mere idea of him winning an election is absurd. does this man seriously believe that he will be elected as a vermont senator, as he has on three prior occasions? incumbents NEVER win.

    Well we need to make sure he is no colluding with foreigners so Trump should start wiretapping him and sending in FBI informants just to make sure.

    "Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders announced Monday he will seek re-election this year, with a formal kickoff in June as he angles for a third term."

    no. this thread is about a different election.

    He will certainly have a better chance without Hillary and the DNC rigging the election against him.

    He obviously needed some Russian and Macedonian assistance like Dirty Donald had.

    Unlike Chatholic priests politicians of any stripe do not have to swear to a life of poverty. Yes I know it's words only and a joke.

    Hes a socialist, he believes in "fair shares" and even distributions, until it comes to his stuff. Its why my tag line is "Socialism is for the people, not the socialists". Some pigs are more equal than others, and the left always elects them.
