Ok but let’s use actual evidence

The fight is between Biden and Warren (Bernie could come back but it's unlikely)

Warren will get more support from the more progressive side of the Party

Biden will get the moderates

What’s your theory of the case for Biden

Maybe a month ago, but polls don’t support that narrative right now

I was just stating the worst case scenario for anyone who wants Trump out of office

Which would (in my opinion) be Biden winning over Bernie or Warren

Sure

But it doesn’t make a ton of sense that that’s true AND Dems would shoot themselves in the foot

Oh, one tweet I loved from Yang. Paraphrasing a bit but it goes "if you portray your Presidential elections as a Reality TV show, don't be shocked that a Reality TV star became President"

Yeah that’s a fun line but like, so?

The reality is, buzzwords and brash decisions are preferred by the news than actual policies

And Biden sure isn’t the reality tv choice

I'm talking about Trump winning

He did well because he said the most idiotic things you can think of. Calling Mexicans "criminals", saying he'll bomb Muslim families in Syria

I disagree

I agree that the polls point to Biden not being the nominee. But isn't the DNC process for actually voting on one kind of weird?

There’s very little evidence to show that helped

No, how is it weird?

All those issues were relitigated in 2018 with disastrous consequences for trump

I mean midterms usually favour the opposition party

That’s not accurate

The party's presidential nominee is chosen primarily by pledged delegates, which are in turn selected through a series of individual state caucuses and primary elections. Superdelegates, delegates whose votes are not bound to the outcome of a state's caucus or primary, may also influence the nomination.

The size of delegations to the Democratic National Convention, for each state, territory, or other political subdivision, are described in the party's quadrennial Call for the Democratic National Convention.

Idk that seems pretty obtuse to me

Midterms usually favor conservatives

Who have higher turnout

And not indicative of polls which basically deal with it like it's a popular vote

Well hold up

First of all, superdelegates only get to vote on late ballots

Basically tie breakers

In many states you have to physically show up to some convention to "vote"

Yes, those are caucuses

Primaries aren't a thing in the UK

Secondly, the superdelegates represent the party

Definitely unique from my perspective

They’re the actual party, they keep the process from getting hijacked

They’re all elected

Or they were all elected at some point, some are legacy

Like Obama, Clinton and Carter get to vote

But that’s a tiny number of them

Yeah I'm just saying that a (popular) poll showing Biden behind doesn't necessarily translate to how many delegates will pick who
