‘Trump can absolutely kill him’: Wall Street shrugs off Sanders

The finance world is treating the prospect of a President Sanders much like it generally dismissed a possible President Trump in 2016.

An avowed democratic socialist narrowly won the New Hampshire primary, propelled by promises to jack up taxes on the rich, nationalize health care and take a sledgehammer to the nation’s banking behemoths.

Wall Street has so far reacted to the rise of Sen. Bernie Sanders with a massive yawn — because few in the industry think the Vermont senator has a real shot at becoming president.

If Bernie were to win the big race, I would do all I can to get our state to leave the union.

Biden's chips are all in on South Carolina. If he doesn't win, he's in trouble. If he finishes 3rd or worse, he's done.

 

[madinsomniac]

So If tgey go Bloomberg they pretty much sacrifice the black vote... Right... i mean he can win back some of the dems who jumped on economics, but he loses minorities who either jump ship or go apathetic.... his crime policies are worse than the Clintons for them...

Mayor Pete same deal... he can get some back but has a hideous minority record

Biden can possibly garner the black vote but has the charisma of an ancient loaf of bread

Warren is too far left to get the middle back

Sanders is an outright communist

You cannot tell me this is the best the dems have... the issue is tge Dems that theoretically could challenge trump would have to run on old dem policies like border security and tariffs, and bringing labor jobs back... and well that means saying Trump was occasionally right... and they won’t do that...

Yep, they've completely painted themselves into a corner.

All they're focused on is trying to remove him from office. That's the sum of them for 3+ years. That's all they have. The country is doing well and they have a bunch of nitwit commies out front and center. They're probably the worst bunch of candidates I've ever seen. It's kinda comical.

That's why the all of the eggs are in the "get Trump " basket.

At some point the democratic party has to take a very long look at itself and determine precisely WHO they represent.

They have chased minority politics and edge votes for so long, they simply don't have a base. And the party itself is so fractured regarding where they should be going there's virtually no hope for them to galvanize and collectively face an opponent.
The truth is, the ONLY think even remotely holding the democratic party together right now is Trump and their universal opposition to him.

Trump is the most effective democrat the party has seen in decades.

It's embarrassing to hear black "experts" talk about how none of the current candidates is good enough for them. Unless they hear reparations and basically letting criminals out of jail "just because they are black" they don't even consider them "democrat enough". And to hear EVERY single candidate just stoop lower and lower about how racist a country we are sucking up in attempts to get that vote is just vile and evil.

Race issues have just gotten to a point on the left that it is eating their own young.

I just don't know how the message blacks want to hear works at getting ANYONE else to vote for them as well. There is just this small portion of blacks that have gone all-in on "racists everywhere" and demand punishment that it will kill their party.

No wonder just normal black folk without "black studies degrees" are leaving the party in droves and considering voting for Trump. They've gone literally crazy.

Bloomberg's playbook to buy the election

Let’s start with endorsements. Background: Bloomberg was a GOP mayor & Rudy Giuliani ally, whose police stopped innocent black men so often his tactics were ruled unconstitutional. So how did he possibly get key Democratic endorsements in NYC?

In 2018, Mike spent $110 million to boost 24 candidates now in Congress. Turns out, giving people $2 million can be the start of a beautiful friendship. Then there are mayors: Want a grant from Bloomberg for new programs in your city...?

You may also see “community groups” back Mike's candidacy. As mayor, non-profits supported him when he reversed a voter referendum on term limits & made a backroom deal to help himself get a 3rd term. How’d that happen, you ask? He applied himself.��

You may also see fewer critics bash Mike's candidacy than you’d expect. After changing parties from GOP to Independent in 2007 as mayor, the local GOP rarely attacked anything he did. How'd he pull that off? I’ll give you a million guesses...

Boomberg got dwarf slapped...

"Mini Mike Bloomberg is a LOSER who has money but can’t debate and has zero presence, you will see. He reminds me of a tiny version of Jeb 'Low Energy' Bush, but Jeb has more political skill and has treated the Black community much better than Mini!" Trump said.

 

[xjx]

Bloomberg has evaded debates effectively thus far. His strategy is to not debate anyone. His advertisements don't go into specifics. That's his strategy. Show presence but offer nothing substantial. Just buy his way in.

Pete Buttigieg's San Francisco fundraiser interrupted by 'Queers Against Pete' protesters

Democratic presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg held a private fundraiser Friday morning at San Francisco’s National LGBTQ Center for the Arts, where a group of protesters gathered outside. Many held signs reading, "Queers Against Pete," the name of an activist group that has emerged in response to the South Bend mayor's moderate policies.

It will be interesting to see if all the dems band together against Trump or if the moderates swallow the bitter pill and vote strickly on policiy basis.

 

[Djfan]

Trump has already won over the moderate Dems. Bloomberg's move with HIllary is to garnish some of those votes back, and to lock down the feminazi vote.
