Considering the only voting block that has a majority support for socialism in the US is millennials, and millenials have the lowest voter participation rate, by a fair margin, it seems unlikely. Besides, sooner or later they grow up to realize socialism is a failure.

He is currently leading most of the Dem field in battleground states, and impeachment has actually been a positive for him in the polls. There is good reason to expect this impeachment will turn out like the last one, in 1998, with the President still in office and the party pushing impeachment getting clobbered in the election. Especially if the GOP turns impeachment in the Senate into a highly televised expose of Biden and/or it coincides with Durham's investigation handing out indictments against former Obama administration personnel. So, no, your fantasy seems unlikely. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything in the first paragraph can easily be confirmed using the search engine of your choice, as can the first two sentences of the second - and those have both been reported on CNN. For the 3rd sentence, prior to suddenly changing her mind, even Pelosi was worried impeachment would turn out as in 1998 - which is why she put it off so long, and is likely (along with the poll results) why she is suddenly unwilling to send impeachment to the Senate. The last sentence contains 2 scenarios which are not at all far-fetched, given the first has already been threatened by multiple Republicans and, in the second case, it has been widely reported (including on CNN) that Durham's investigation is now a criminal investigation, and in light of what he said in response to the Horowitz report, and given the expected timing of the release of his own report and the slow walk to a Senate trial. Just because the facts don't fit your fantasy doesn't make them wrong. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Biden took votes from Bernie Sanders in Vermont - Bernie's home state. And Joe Biden took Massachusetts - Elizabeth Warren's home state and which Bernie Sanders won last time Joe Biden will be the Democratic candidate for President. The Democratic Party, because of the pressure from Sanders, Warren and from the new younger members like AOC, will continue to move back to the international centre-left position from the international centre-right position where it was under Bill Clinton / Tony Blair / etc. This move back has been a long slow journey and will continue to be long and slow.

No most people just thought it was a stupid thread and ignored it until it died by inanition (which apparently spell check doesn't recognize as a word). Then someone necroposted it and now no doubt we'll get a new flurry of inanity. Lucky us - it's the zombiepostapocalypse. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
