i recall that debate about healthcare he had with Cruz

2018-12-04 12:25:12 UTC  

He talks nothing but policy policy policy

2018-12-04 12:25:13 UTC  

Bernie was shit on it

2018-12-04 12:25:18 UTC  

Which is good

2018-12-04 12:25:40 UTC  

Umm I watched that debate Bernie did fine?

2018-12-04 12:25:47 UTC  

He hammered his usual points

2018-12-04 12:26:19 UTC  

yes he retreated to his "we must take on the 1%" level of arguments

2018-12-04 12:26:22 UTC  

The only points of contention where Bernie would be weak is immigration

2018-12-04 12:26:37 UTC  

Bernie is too nice for it

2018-12-04 12:26:37 UTC  

Is Bernie not right on that issue though?

2018-12-04 12:26:50 UTC  

depends on what factors you wanna go on

2018-12-04 12:27:29 UTC  

the 1% isn't like Scrooge McDuck where they just shove all their money into a big bunker and swim around in it,

the money of the 1% is whats swirling through the economy

2018-12-04 12:27:54 UTC  

I think if Bernie emphasised strong borders and small government only for small businesses and lower to middle class people

2018-12-04 12:28:00 UTC  

He'd be bulletproof

2018-12-04 12:28:15 UTC  

Nah, that Seattle incident shows he's too "nice"

2018-12-04 12:28:26 UTC  

he'd just step back in silence

2018-12-04 12:28:29 UTC  

I agree tbh but still

2018-12-04 12:28:51 UTC  

That alone doesn't discredit everything he's standing for

2018-12-04 12:29:05 UTC  

Its worrying for sure

2018-12-04 12:29:23 UTC  

But conflating confidence with competence doesn't end well

2018-12-04 12:29:23 UTC  

It doesn't discredit him,

But it makes him a stepping stone, meaning any of his "good sounding policies" would just be pushes aside by the democratic party that would've backed him

2018-12-04 12:29:37 UTC  

Im certain he wasnt confident in dealing with that situation

2018-12-04 12:29:44 UTC  

Not to mention, many flyover states are simply die-hard republicans

Bernie would have a hard time winning them over

2018-12-04 12:30:12 UTC  

But he's damn sure far more competent and sticks to his values harder than any other politician I've seen

2018-12-04 12:30:55 UTC  

He got a standing ovation from Trump supporters before and its not uncommon either

I think he has a great shot

2018-12-04 12:31:21 UTC  

He might've in 2016,

but Trump has proven himself to be one of the better presidents in modern history, if not THE best

2018-12-04 12:31:55 UTC  

Nah big disagree

2018-12-04 12:32:03 UTC  

Im not saying

2018-12-04 12:32:10 UTC  

He hasnt done anything good

2018-12-04 12:32:37 UTC  

But policy wise he falls short of the standard, though his random aberrations got North Korea on the table

2018-12-04 12:33:17 UTC  

I definitely give him credit on North Korea because it takes a certain type of personality to get them on the table with the south

2018-12-04 12:33:32 UTC  

As well as strong confidence in the economy for sure

2018-12-04 12:33:37 UTC  

domestic policy he might be lacking a bit yeah,

But other fields he's great at

2018-12-04 12:33:44 UTC  

But almost everything he promised on the campaign

2018-12-04 12:33:52 UTC  

He has consistently lied about

2018-12-04 12:34:04 UTC  

@MysticEyes💕 Beto spent an absurd amount of money and still lost.

2018-12-04 12:34:04 UTC  

What happened to leaving Iraq and Afghanistan?

2018-12-04 12:34:26 UTC  

Yeah Beto is the 2nd weakest of the candidates I mentioned

2018-12-04 12:34:32 UTC  

Tax cuts,
Renegotiated NAFTA,
Brought jobs back,
Halted illegal immigration (to an extent)

2018-12-04 12:34:34 UTC  

Weakest being Warren

2018-12-04 12:34:46 UTC  

weakest is Hillary
