Joe Biden 2020 campaign megathread v3 (pg 45 - mass-dropout aftermath)

[Bidenworth2020]

Wow.  I'm watching the Biden TX rally right now and it's f#cking horrifying.

Beto just walked out on the stage completely nude and Julian Castro walked past the stage smoking a joint.  Amy Klobuchar seductively removed her shirt in front of the audience.  Then Donald Trump Jr. endorsed Biden before introducing Trump Sr., who walked up to the podium to endorse Biden before removing his toupee.

Then the corpse of John McCain was brought on stage and a man dressed up in surgical gear cut out his brain tumor and gave it to the now-bald Trump, who held it up to the audience.  Then he put the disembodied tumor on the podium and dragged out the corpse of Osama Bin Laden.  Some rock song was playing in the background but now it appears to be turning into Satanic chants.

Meanwhile, AOC has announced that she will be endorsing Biden and Ilhan Omar will be resigning her House seat to work full-time on the Biden campaign.

All of this is being broadcasted on RedTube, too, so that definitely has to be a first.

Just... wow.  And people thought 2016 was weird.

Our disagreements aside, this is absurdly hilarious and one of the funniest things I have read in a while on Atlas.

Biden refers to Super Tuesday as super thursday.

This is not even a f(inks)ing gaffe. He corrected himself immediately. You guys are desperate.

He has done this type of stuff for months(debate stages) and you guys are giving him a free pass on it. He struggles to remember and speak clearly.

I do think a lot of the Biden speech ability criticism is fair game, but this ain't it.

[Bidenworth2020]

Biden practically just lost my vote if he wins the DEM PRIM in the GE after watching his rant including targeting Bernie....

What did he say? Just started watching.

[Bidenworth2020]

This is the type of energy Biden needs to win.

I find it greatly ironic how Biden, who dominated the black vote in South Carolina, is getting endorsements from two candidates who did very poorly with black voters during their runs and have poor relations with the community (Buttigieg and Klobuchar), and from one (O'Rourke), whose radical comments on gun control capped off a disastrous and bungled candidacy. Nevertheless, I'm still not sure what the logic is to the establishment's actions. Biden probably would be a better candidate than Bloomberg, but choosing favorites in this way could alienate parts of the Democratic base and depress turnout in a general election. It feeds into a narrative that goes back to 2016, and the perceptions held by many progressives that the progress was skewed in favor of Clinton (however valid those claims may be).

I know you are a moderate, generally speaking. Would you support him the general?

Kamala endorsement?

I will be f-cking S H O O K

Biden better remember she helped him in his time of need...

[Bidenworth2020]

Oh my god, I just watched the clip from Mayor Pete's endorsement and how Joe Biden compared him to Beau. I'm almost crying because of this. Both of them are have so much character.

Same!! I loved it!

Sh-t. I teared up watching this too:

Pete has a bright future in President Biden’s admin.

I hate myself for having hope, but I really feel like Biden has a shot to win in the general. My head says no, my heart says yes.

[Bidenworth2020]

Would any Biden supporters be open to the idea of Tammy Baldwin as VP?

Abso-freakin'-lutely. Would this be a good pick you think?

My dad, a labor union member who was once on the Bernie train, has jumped onto the Biden bus recently. He cites electability in his decision.

Your dad is a democrat? lmao

Whats so surprising about that

Just surprised you are so different at least one of your parents politically. All the more power to you.

Both of my parents are lifelong democrats. My views were crafted by the internet over a long period of time.

Is that partially why you are so Anti- Trump?

[Bidenworth2020]

I don't trust anyone who has the same political beliefs as their parents.

then who the hell do you trust?

[Bidenworth2020]

then who the hell do you trust?

People whose politics are the complete opposite of the environment in which they were raised; e.g. critical thinkers.
Obviously thinking critically is an asset, and no one should blindly adopt their parents' beliefs, but nonetheless blindly rebelling against the environment you are brought up in does not make you a critical thinker.

[Bidenworth2020]

Watch the first minute of this. Biden has serious memory and speaking issues. Trump will take advantage of these which will be an issue for Biden at the debates.

If this is actually the best y'all are gonna come up with, I am feeling pretty good about our chances.

Pass the torch!

Not those exact words, but Pete talked about that general idea a ton in debates. This is not a gaffe, once again.

Swalwell in the debate addressing Biden: "Time to pass the torch to a new generation of Americans."
Biden: "In the debates about passing the torch to the next generation."
Yeah, that was totally not Swalwell he was thinking about.

I understand Swalwell talked about passing the torch. With that being said, he was taking about generational shifts more broadly.
