    Remember when Biden was a consistent
    3rd tier candidate in the early primaries?

    What changed that made him the winner?

    The percent of the Black population in Biden won
    States in later primaries was about the same as in early
    States although a concentrated Black vote
    is often credited for Biden victories.

    What happened?
    Promises? Deals?

    It's called voter fraud. Biden did worse with all minorities than Hillary and only saw a small increase in white voters. Biden cheated. It's sad the left is ok with that.

    I assume Bernie got too scared of the virus and more or less gave up. Really, however, Biden went from loser to presumptive nominee in the MSM once he won South Carolina. Something behind the scenes was going on for that to happen. Just don't now what.

    No one felt "the Bern" in '20 as in '16.

    In '16 I was impressed by his large, mixed crowds.

    What would you hypothesize?

    I hadn't considered the DNC's role.


    Thanks.

    He ran against trump
    Had Republicans had put forth even a halfway decent person they would have easily won.
    But y’all pushed the embodiment of the seven deadly sins and the evangelicals continued to show their lust for power over goodness.

    Apologies if #1 upload was unclear.

    ------------------------------------------------------------

    This is about Biden's rise to acquire the nomination.

    I think from our experience in '16
    @Spooky has a point.
    Biden was the DNC anointed before our voting.
    Believable considering the DNC officers are pretty much the same as '16
    Politically the same as Obama and Hillary. Republican-lite

    James Cliburn's endorsement, for one, but mostly it was Trump Fatigue. Americans got tired of the constant drama, the nasty tweets, and so forth.

    Biden didn't need to cheat. The fact that Trump supporters won't acknowledge is that most voters are centrists, and Biden is a centrist. Cliburn's endorsement put him over the top in the primaries, and we the voters did the rest.

    I'm fully aware of how it feels to be on the losing side. It's your turn.

    That is a gross insult to the tens of millions of people who voted, often under very difficult circumstances, in long lines, waiting for hours in bad weather.

    It's a gross insult to the thousands of poll workers and ballot counters all over the country, working in multi-party pairs and groups and taking great pains to ensure that all votes were counted.

    It's a gross insult to the Republican election officials, especially in the swing states, who, in spite of political pressure from the Trump campaign, did the right thing and certified the vote in their districts, counties, and states.

    Are you going to keep whining about this forever? Or will you man up and face reality: Trump lost because he's an incompetent con man who finally managed to get in over his head, and we the people had had enough of his crap.

    The DNC did not choose Biden, the voters did. Bernie did not have the votes, same as last time.

    Yeah, that Biden, he's a criminal mastermind, almost as good as Hillary at getting away with it, right?

    James Cliburn's endorsement. It really isn't a mystery at all.

    You're looking too deeply for conspiracies. I know, I know. That is the current fad among right wingers and the RNC. But the answer is far simpler. We don't have instant runoff voting ("ranked choice voting"), so the primary vote was too dispersed and diluted between the many candidates. Realize that if you have 5 candidates, the one who wins could do so with just 21% of the vote, theoretically.

    Right!

    Are you familiar with Delaware politics?


    Also his son's job with Ukraine oil is absurd

    turning a blind eye to corruption
    yet no body notices.

    Conspiracy? Certainly.

    @Kode

    Yes / No
    Was there a conspiracy in the DNC supporting
    the Hillary nomination?
    Thank you.

    Yes!

    I just now searched who he is.


    As you find relevancy there,
    would you outline what I missed?

    Gracias
