Yuuup. -- nm - znufrii Feb 22, 07:28
This would be my interpretation, yes. -- nm - Reagen Feb 22, 07:25 17
- but they want him as the nom, believing that'll give them donnie as fakeprez again -- nm - mud Feb 22, 07:32 16
  - No they want maximum chaos and an American people at each other’s throats. Trump v Sanders does that. - spamlet Feb 22, 07:47 8
    - They should both drop out, then. -- nm - znufrii Feb 22, 08:00 2
      - Ok done. -- nm - spamlet Feb 22, 08:09
      - (I mean I'd take that deal in a millisecond) -- nm - Reagen Feb 22, 08:01
    - I think people should just honestly chose their intentions without worrying about other people's ulterior motives - Reagen Feb 22, 07:53 4
      - I agree but the analysis that they want Sanders because they want Trump isn’t true is what I was trying to point out. - spamlet Feb 22, 08:10 3
        
        It’s sort of a besides the point waste of time point to make— do you disagree that they want Trump to win? -- nm - JackDawson Feb 22, 09:02 2
        
        I don’t think they honestly care as long as it divides us. - spamlet Feb 22, 09:15 1
        
        The evidence is to the contrary. Hilary was clearly also divisive. They’ll take divisive but the icing on the cake is someone to weaken our foreign - JackDawson Feb 22, 09:40
  - Maybe .. we should stop jumping at our shadows because someone else *might* want the same thing for a weird reason. -- nm* - Reagen Feb 22, 07:41
  - Yes, like Bloomberg said. They either get Trump or a socialist. -- nm - Strongbad Feb 22, 07:35 5
    - But, see, if Sen. Sanders is elected President, the Democratic leadership will rein him in and keep him in check. - ReluctantCynic Feb 22, 08:12 2
      - eh. no one knows how to lose the win like Democrats, so probably. -- nm - Reagen Feb 22, 08:21 1
        
        At moments like this, I wish Bruno Gianelli was an actual (not fictional) political strategist. -- nm - ReluctantCynic Feb 22, 08:28
    - I won't name the tool who said it but the quote is "I'd rather have a socialist than a dictator". I'm in the neither camp but if it came down to it, - zunk lake county Feb 22, 08:05
    - Mike is like a broken squirrel .. or a blind clock, or something -- nm - mud Feb 22, 08:05
