I live in Miami now.  There are an incredible amount of outrageously hot women here.  In fact, there are more beautiful women here than any other city I have ever seen.

The only problem is that after seeing these girls every day and not being able to have sex with them, after awhile, you begin to lose your mind.

Don't get me wrong, I hook up a decent amount (defined as: at least make out with a new girl every six to eight weeks and have sex with a steady girl at least once a week), but it seems like there is a sea of tits here, and I am drinking in tiny droplets.  I want to dive into the whole god damn ocean.

The waves keep pounding you every night on South Beach, and the more luscious the surf, and the more dry you are, the more insanity sets in.

On Friday night, I talked to approximately eleven different women at a new club on the beach.  Most of them were unfairly beautiful. And I must admit I was fairly charming.  Some even indicated I was cute, but alas, no results.   The madness grows.

There are two problems, which I will get into greater detail on later.  But for now, suffice it to say, they are: 1. Too many semi-professional whores in Miami. 2. The genes that God gave women.

1. In other places in the US, when I tell girls that I quit law to become a talk show host, they get excited, because it indicates I might actually be an interesting person that has done something unusual, and hence cool, thing with his life.

In Miami, it is seen as a clear decrease in earning potential, and is heavily frowned upon.  I have never seen girls get so turned off as when I tell a Miami girl I no longer practice law.  This reaction is sickening, in its depraved, whorish blatantness.

This happened again on Friday night when I told what seemed to a sweet 5th grade teacher my story.  She lost all interest, quickly lost her sweet smile, and literally switched seats so as not to sit next to the man that threw away such good future earning potential.

2. Obviously, the genes of women are flawed.  They are poorly designed creatures who do not want to have sex nearly as often as needed for the human race to get along peaceably and fruitfully.

Cenk Uygur is a great man and we need more people like him in our government.

Cenk 2020!

He's an idiot for a) moving to a place with such low-end human beings as Miami, and b) trying to use his job to pick up women. B only works on low-rent women in sh**tholes like Miami or LA. It's much better to brag about being a rich kid who got money from your parents. (obviously, you need some money to pull this off for more than one night, but you can pretend your money is from your parents) First of all, nobody ever perceives you as a threat that way (not just in his piggish and amateurish attempts at picking up women, but in business and life in general), and they let their guard down, and rich girls love spending money, so you don't have to bankrupt yourself spending money on stupid sh**t as a wannabe talk show host trying to stay in her pants. And trying to hook up with a teacher at a club?! JFC how pathetic.

Hopefully he's learned something in the 20 years since.

While I really dislike Cenk, he has apologized for this and his prior views on the Armenian Genocide so I thinks it’s unfair to use that past against him as he has apologized for it

We can and should attack him for the terrible views he espouses now days and their are plenty of them .  TYT as a whole is awful and we should attack him for all the terrible things they have said

That was forever ago, before 9/11 I believe. He's married with kids now. He's changed a lot, apologized, and even though it got him kicked out of Justice Democrats, he still supports them because he understands why they did it.

You got me SO CLOSE to praising you and liking your post until you attacked TYT. Obviously you're entitled to your opinion. Thank you for being reasonable. It seems like a lot to ask from blue avatars around here.

No Ro Khanna and Jayapall also joined it and AOC was a justice Dem candidate and repeatedly went on TYT during her campaign.

I live in Miami now.  There are an incredible amount of outrageously hot women here.  In fact, there are more beautiful women here than any other city I have ever seen.

The only problem is that after seeing these girls every day and not being able to have sex with them, after awhile, you begin to lose your mind.

Don't get me wrong, I hook up a decent amount (defined as: at least make out with a new girl every six to eight weeks and have sex with a steady girl at least once a week), but it seems like there is a sea of tits here, and I am drinking in tiny droplets.  I want to dive into the whole god damn ocean.

The waves keep pounding you every night on South Beach, and the more luscious the surf, and the more dry you are, the more insanity sets in.

On Friday night, I talked to approximately eleven different women at a new club on the beach.  Most of them were unfairly beautiful. And I must admit I was fairly charming.  Some even indicated I was cute, but alas, no results.   The madness grows.

There are two problems, which I will get into greater detail on later.  But for now, suffice it to say, they are: 1. Too many semi-professional whores in Miami. 2. The genes that God gave women.

1. In other places in the US, when I tell girls that I quit law to become a talk show host, they get excited, because it indicates I might actually be an interesting person that has done something unusual, and hence cool, thing with his life.

In Miami, it is seen as a clear decrease in earning potential, and is heavily frowned upon.  I have never seen girls get so turned off as when I tell a Miami girl I no longer practice law.  This reaction is sickening, in its depraved, whorish blatantness.

This happened again on Friday night when I told what seemed to a sweet 5th grade teacher my story.  She lost all interest, quickly lost her sweet smile, and literally switched seats so as not to sit next to the man that threw away such good future earning potential.

2. Obviously, the genes of women are flawed.  They are poorly designed creatures who do not want to have sex nearly as often as needed for the human race to get along peaceably and fruitfully.

While I really dislike Cenk, he has apologized for this and his prior views on the Armenian Genocide so I thinks it’s unfair to use that past against him as he has apologized for it

We can and should attack him for the terrible views he espouses now days and their are plenty of them .  TYT as a whole is awful and we should attack him for all the terrible things they have said
You got me SO CLOSE to praising you and liking your post until you attacked TYT. Obviously you're entitled to your opinion. Thank you for being reasonable. It seems like a lot to ask from blue avatars around here.


Cenk and TYT foisted AOC , Omar and Tlaib on this country and is a huge reason why The Dems have rocketed to the far left as well

You give Uygur way too much credit. I highly doubt most primary voters in these districts have ever heard of him or his show.

Cenk founded the Justice Democrats and these people ran as part of Justice Democrats . The squad is basically the TYT caucus in the House

I mean, sure, but are "Justice Democrats" actually a force to be reckoned with in any way? My impression was that they were somewhere between a bogeyman and a joke, and that AOC et al's involvement with them was relatively incidental to their political projects.

No Ro Khanna and Jayapall also joined it and AOC was a justice Dem candidate and repeatedly went on TYT during her campaign.

Huh. I'm only vaguely aware of who does and doesn't go on TYT so I must have missed that.

JusticeDems are not a serious force to be reckoned with.  They will never have any real impact on policy.

However, they are powerful enough to ratf**k a small handful of primaries every year.  They divebomb into primaries and drop oodles of cash and negative advertising, run a massive smear campaign against the Democratic incumbent, and try to either take him down or tank his favorabilities so he can be weakened for the next cycle.

AOC is just one example, they did this in about a dozen races.  For instance, they tried to boost Paula Jean Swearengin against Joe Manchin.



By the way, you should go to TYT's channel on YouTube and sort by "Most Popular."  Their #1 most popular video is "Woman orgasms 300 times a day" from 2010.  Their second is "World's largest penis record holder" from 2012.  Hot Teacher In Trouble For Being Too Hot.  Real Life Anime Girl.  Their channel was basically the equivalent of those clickbait ads you see at the bottom of lousy websites.

So this sexist, trashy attitude Cenk had in 1999?  It wasn't some thing he did 20 years ago and stopped.  This is how he rose to fame.  This is how his channel got popular.  He did a bait-and-switch where after he already got famous and wealthy as a purveyor of trashy clickbait, he switched to trying to push his trashy political views on everyone.

Endorsed! Alan Grayson on steroids, I can't wait!

The difference is that Grayson came from an Orlando district that was in transition, but still had a number of conservative voters, whereas Uygur is running in liberal California.

I don't know what kind of Congressman Ugyur will be.  My view on Grayson was that he was a guy willing to be undiplomatic to tell the truth on healthcare.  I would vote for him regardless of his sometimes unappetizing persona, and despite deep disagreements with him on other issues because he had the guts to call out people over what the issue of being uninsured and its impact on such people is all about.







While I certainly don't support impeachment, and while I am (at this moment) likely to vote for Trump as a protest to this impeachment process, which I consider to be something that undermines our very system of being a Constitutional Republic, I do think that Trump's record on healthcare is awful.  I had hoped he would be the President to fix Obamacare (which, I believe, will collapse of its own weight due to the gutting of its provisions by the SCOTUS), and he could have, but he's now firmly allied with the Jim Jordans of Congress, whose plan is to repeal Obamacare, period.

I would not want a whole Congress of Alan Graysons (or Alan Graysons on steroids, for that matter), but there's a place for a few.  I suppose an argument such as this could be made for The Squad.  They serve a purpose, I suppose.  A majority of that type of person in Congress, or even in the Democratic caucus, would be an utter disaster for America.  If Ugyur gets elected and carries the Grayson message on healthcare, that would make him useful.

The problem with Cenk isn't that he's too far left.

The problem is that he believes, or at least pretends to believe, that literally every politician except Bernie Sanders is 100% unforgivably corrupt.

All their views and positions can be ignored.  All their promises are lies.  They are corrupt and only Cenk knows what they're really thinking.

On top of that, he pushes all these crazy conspiracies about a DNC deep state that is manipulating everything behind the scenes, telling all the sheeple what to think, manipulating the media and the polls and everything.  Cenk is the only one who sees the truth.  The rest of us are all sheeple being hoodwinked by the establishment.

As if those weren't enough, he uses his platform to enable even crazies conspiracy kooks, like Jimmy Dore, who push 9/11, PizzaGate, Seth Rich, all that kind of stuff.

And this is before we even get into the fact that he's a huge f***ing liar, massive douchenozzle, super duper obnoxious, and drunk on delusions of his own self-importance.  I mean this is the guy who famously declared war on the DNC on election night 2016.  THIS IS WAR!  THIS IS WAR!  WE'RE GOING TO TAKE YOU DOWN!  He shouted as normal Americans were crying at the results.

You can also watch the whole video.  It's infuriating to watch Cenk and Jimmy Dore sitting there all nervous at the prospect of a Trump presidency, after they'd just spent the last 18 months pushing every anti-Clinton conspiracy theory under the sun and doing everything in their power to destroy her candidacy.

Nah, Cenk announced he was voting for Hillary despite her many, many flaws and a primary that was at best extremely biased against his preferred candidate. So when that candidate who was undeniably propped up by the DNC and the Democratic establishment lost, he was understandably furious at the DNC that had miscalculated their chances and ran the campaign so dysfunctional that it lost to Trump.

Should Cenk have just shut up and praised the losing campaign? Would anyone with his beliefs, in his situation? Doubtful. We have every right to criticize and expose the negative qualities of candidates running for President, unless you think Cenk should've bowed down to Queen Hillary and pretended she was a flawless candidate and her loss was caused by the Russians. Ridiculous to use this against Cenk. If I lived in this district I'd gladly vote for him.

Cenk claimed to be voting for Hillary but every single time he said it it was like "I'm voting for her, but MAN, she is just the worst" and then Jimmy Dore would chime in with "yeah and what about those kids she raped?"

I think Cenk should try being an honest journalist instead of a hack for the anti-establishment wing of the party.  Whenever there was an attack line pushed against Hillary, he would repeat it without question.  He would never give Hillary the benefit of the doubt, or give any credibility to her side's counter-arguments or defenses.  And then he would bring on a whole bunch of conspiracy theory hacks to say even crazier stuff about her.  It was like Sean Hannity's show for leftists and edgy anti-establishment teenagers.

Fuzzy, the Constitution itself is checks and balances on the President. With no Constitution at all, a President could change America from a democracy to a dictatorship in no time at all. Bearing that in mind, and understanding tbat the impeachment process is literally part of the constitution, your argument seems to be "checks and balances are something that undermines our very system of checks and balances". How does that make any sense?

The Constitution states that the President may be impeached for Treason, Bribery, or other High Crimes and Misdemeanors.  There idea that any of these apply to Trump is, at this point, ridiculous.  Tomorrow may bring other news, but as of today, asserting that Trump has committed any of those things takes more Goalpost Moving than is possible.

So I'm not opposed to the idea of impeachment, but there is not a basis to impeach Trump that the Founders would agree with.  There are reasons to not vote for Trump that have come out of all of this, but I don't see an impeachable offense.  And there is a crowd that was bound and determined to see Trump impeached regardless of the facts.

I would like the blie avatars on here to come out and clearly state where they are drawing their lines on what is "too far" for Trump and what would cause them to turn against him. I've noticed that every time these implied lines are approached and crossed, blue avatars insist "that was not the line and I never explicitly said that was the line", and Trump goes further and further and the majority of blue avatars will refuse to turn against him no matter how far he goes. Based on principles, the line dhould be around around the same spot for any president of either party, but I am POSITIVE tbat Trump has crossed what would be considered the line many times, if Trump was a half-black Democrat. "Party over principles" is a disease that has infected the Republican Party.

I've noticed that every time these implied lines are approached and crossed, blue avatars insist "that was not the line and I never explicitly said that was the line", and Trump goes further and further and the majority of blue avatars will refuse to turn against him no matter how far he goes. Based on principles, the line dhould be around around the same spot for any president of either party, but I am POSITIVE tbat Trump has crossed what would be considered the line many times, if Trump was a half-black Democrat. "Party over principles" is a disease that has infected the Republican Party.

The underlined is not the Constitutional standard for impeachment.  Period.  This is an assertion on my part that, I believe, rises to the level of fact.

Some - actually, the primary - reasoning used for political Americans in determining how they should define "unacceptable" is the Constitution. Therefore, assuming most objective analyses are correct, Trump should probably be impeached. You seem to think you see things clearer than most, and your analysis of the situation is objective and more accurate than most, and yet Fuzzy you WILL NOT condemn Trump despite how many lines he crosses.

I'm not asking you to criticize him, and I'm not asking you to point out all the ways that he is bad. You have done that and I commend you for it. I'm asking you to (publically) draw a line in the sand that Trump CANNOT cross, and if he does cross it, I would like for you to turn your back on him and either vote against him (you won't, abortion) OR publically support his impeachment. I'm asking you to define your limitations of tolerance for Trump, and I'm asking you to be consistent with your words AND actions in this regard without moving goal posts. I ask this not just of you, but of all Republicans.

Cenk saw the light a LONG time ago and has apologized sincerely. For a long time now, he advocates for women and Armenians. No idea what exactly the anti-jew claims and anti-gay claims are, possibly very old or fake, but I know he has apologuzed for anything like that, or Bernie Sanders wouldn't be associating with him. As for Islamophobia... the dude was raised a Turkish muslim and advocates for muslims constantly. Fake news on the islamophobia 1000%.

I hate to use reddit as a source, let alone r/Enough_Sanders_Spam, but they do actually have a pretty good mega post on him, especially some of his old essays he wrote back when he was living in Vermont before his first election.

Now, he's certainly not anti-semitic or homophobic or anything, but he has said some pretty wacky things, including about women. Some highlights:

"People are becoming aware that the function of our schools is not to educate our children but in fact to do the very opposite - to PREVENT education."

"it is better for their children not to go to school at all then for them to attend a normal type of establishment."


- Bernard Sanders
North Montplier

https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/2157401-sanders-destructiveschools.html

"Many women seem to be walking on a tightrope now. Their qualities of love, openness, and gentleness are too deeply emeshed with qualities of dependency, subservience, and masochism."

- Man and Woman, by Bernard Sanders
https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/bernie-sanders-essay/

And finally, this one is too long and I'm too tired to dig up specific quotes in, but here's the essay where he attacked age of consent laws and linked cancer to a lack of orgasms:

https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/2157403-sanders-cancer.html

Regardless of your personal thoughts on Bernie's policies, one has to admit that these writings are super nutty, if not worse (though we obviously don't know if he still believes these things). Certainly however, they should be enough to block mere association with him from being a disqualifier for being sexist/looney/etc imo.

When people write this sort of deplorable stuff, publish it, and then years later try to say "that was a horrible mistake, and it's not who I am today", what you have to ask is, is there any evidence that they've changed?

TYT was created in 2005 and for the first ten years of its existence was essentially a clickbait program.  As I've documented elsewhere in this thread, to this day, the most watched videos on the TYT channel are bizarrely misogynistic.  They struck gold in 2015 when they realized that going full-throated extreme-hack for Bernie would make them politically prominent, and the misogyny got drowned in politispeak.  But it was still a deplorable channel full of deplorable people.  Jordan Chariton was one of their main contributors and they fired him for sexual assault.

My point is, Cenk wrote those essays in 2000, but then continued to be the same misogynistic douchebag for decades afterwards.  Since he became a full-time Bernie Sanders propagandist, half of the internet has turned die-hard apologists for his misogynistic attitudes, and now it's impossible to talk about.  Folks, the guy's most-viewed video of all time is "Woman orgasms 300 times a day."

Cenk's current position was published in an article on his blog that nobody reads, purely so his supporters can pull it out as a shield whenever anyone complains about his genocide denialism.

https://legacy.tyt.com/2016/04/22/rescinding-daily-pennsylvanian-article/

It's basically: "previously I said the Holocaust never happened, but now I realize that I am not an expert on the subject so I will refrain from commenting on whether or not it happened."

Not a change of heart, more just covering his ass with a wink-wink.

Gotta say that watching Cenk suffer this whole embroglio is a pretty vindicating feeling.

For decades he stayed in his little echo chamber of Sanders supporters and alt-right conspiracy theorist Clinton-haters, screaming his head off and being an obnoxious, misogynistic asshole.  And he was raking in cash from ad revenue and venture capitalists, plus running his grifts with WolfPAC and Justice Dems.

He could've stayed in his echo chamber and kept preaching to the choir, getting rich off the grift, and occasionally elevating people like AOC to higher positions.  Instead, he got high off his own supply and believed he really was as popular and righteous as his echo chamber told him he was.

So now he's stepped out into the real world to run for Congress and gotten smacked in the face with cold, hard reality.  He's damaged his reputation and done damage to his lord and savior Bernie Sanders.  Three months to go, buddy.  Maybe time for a little self-reflection?

I don't know if Uygur is any more controversial than some other people that Sanders pals around with. But, it's his choice to endorse or not, I guess. As a presidential candidate in a primary, he knows that he'll need more support than just his base this time. I can't really blame him for doing this.

I just wonder how Uygur will take this now though, could he end up turning on a politician he respects, or is he just going to blame Twitter too?

Sanders is the golden goose, he's the key to Cenk's grift.  Cenk would die before he turned on Sanders.

He'll just blame Twitter and say Sanders' hand was forced by an establishment cabal lying about him.

Cool. Cenk is the kind of guy who will put himself second to his principles. For example, a couple of weeks ago The Young Turks did a story on Michael Moore going on MSNBC and speaking truth. Cenk explained that he has a beef with Moore and didn't necessarily want to praise him, but the bottom line is that credit needs to be given when credit is due.
