    So says the guy who can't admit he loves Trump simply because he'll support anyone with an R next to his name. Not sure any of the Dems really care to appeal to you.

    I would support anyone with an R next to his name, but that's not why I love Trump

    So from all of that, assuming that if this comes down to a convention first and all the moderates will ultimately pledge their delegates to the anti-Bernie and Warren will pledge hers to Bernie, then we ended up at Moderates 21, Bernies 20.

    I love the force of nature that is the Trump presidency, kicking ass on all fronts, owning the libs, and having fun doing it

    Pete is like a crappy programmed version of Obama phoniness

    case in point

    So your point is that you hate the Oscars and agree with Trump?

    And why does this matter to anyone?

    On point with the humor, as usual. Respect.

    I really loved Yang and Klobuchar. In some parallel universe, one of them is winning the nom and winning the presidency.

    pretty sure "dweeb" is a reference to Mayor Pete Dukakis:

    Now, I am admittedly a Sanders supporter. Representation matters, and I think it is high time we have somebody in the White House who looks like me (i.e., a weird, ungainly Jew, who talks with his hands and whose spouse has to tell him to keep his voice down in restaurants). I am not, perhaps, as devoted as his most ardent backers. In other words, I’m precisely the kind of wobbly voter that they are warning you about. I feel more warmly than most Sanders’ supporters toward Elizabeth Warren, even after her unnecessary and ill-considered attempt to smear him as a sexist, and I think I could vote for her with mild regret, knowing that the system can’t be defeated at the ballot box and hoping that she has enough Gorbachev in her to steer us through a Soviet-style collapse.

    I might even be persuaded to vote for Amy Klobuchar if she were the nominee. If nothing else, she has proven she’d be willing to channel Lyndon Johnson and bully members of the Senate in increasingly florid ways. The rest of them? I suspect I’d probably stay home. Never have I seen such a collection of weirdos, billionaires and careerist dweebs without the slightest indication of a core moral code or a common sense of humanity.​

    Never too early to swiftboat a Dem. Lucky for Tulsi she's not winning any delegates!

    He has the ideal personality (calm, moderate, intellectual) that I’m looking for.

    No surprise you dislike him, given your affinity for Trump, who has the opposite personality. I do think it’s funny that you would consider Buttigieg phony while Trump is somehow authentic.
