As this writer earlier reported, what is called Super Tuesday in American politics, would either make or break the race to determine the Democratic Party’s presidential candidate to square off against President Donald Trump in November. The results from Super Tuesday are now in, they’re a mixed bag of much to worry about, regardless of whom the eventual nominee ends up being, whether it’s Joe Biden or Bernie Sanders. It is now a two man race, literally. Everyone else who once mattered, if they ever truly mattered at all, have now all dropped out.
The obvious winner on Super Tuesday was Joe Biden, he can thank this stretch of the campaign for resurrecting him. He can also genuinely thank Bernie Sanders, who placed second, because outright fear of Sanders and his agenda has played a “yuuuuuuge” part, as Trump would say, in Biden’s victory. Put another way, Biden sweep wasn’t due to most Americans suddenly falling in love with him or thinking he’s the greatest thing since sliced bread. Instead, this is the perfect storm, Biden is the ultimate “compromise” candidate, this is also his and the Democratic Party’s greatest liability.
Most Americans do not want compromise, they understandably want and are demanding instead, what they were promised by both ironically Biden, and his Big Boss during two terms in the White House, Barack Obama. Remember these simplistic but effective slogans Obama ran on: “Change we can believe in,” and “Yes We Can.” These proved to be more chump change, than real change.
Obama failed to deliver on these two ‘promises,’ there is no credible evidence he ever intended to. These slogans worked however, they fooled countless millions of people, spurred in no small part by a severe economic crisis that hit the USA especially hard, thanks to both the Democrats and Republicans empowering mortgage fraud through cooking the books and being in cahoots with corrupt private bankers. Remember when Obama and Biden promised the world, literally, that they would hold “Wall Street accountable,” to use their words?
As was predictable, not a single banker nor financial criminal spent a single day in jail. Where penalties were imposed, Obama had his sock puppet, Attorney General Eric Holder, agree to allow “settlements,” which was political speak for fines being imposed that these companies, who made billions illegally, could easily pay. Often, if anyone dared to criticize Obama, even when he earned it and was easily proven wrong, the race card would be played.
The results from Super Tuesday should not have been surprising to anyone who genuinely understands the dynamics of this 2020 presidential election. Had voters and the Democratic Party Elites (DPEs) not lined up behind Biden to stop Sanders now, it would have been too late. In fact their ‘job’ isn’t finished yet, it’s premature for them to start patting themselves on their backs yet. On March 10th, six more states will hold their primaries, including the important state of Washington. Washington, unless polls reverse themselves, is projected to go overwhelmingly for Sanders. If Biden takes most of the states in this next round, he would have to stumble badly to not get the nomination. Biden always stumbles, it’s only a question of how often and to what degree. Today he also fumbles and often can’t string coherent sentences together. If you don’t believe this, just search on YouTube. Try key words such as “Biden gaffes” and like George W Bush and his “Bushisms,” things go downhill from there.
Yet here is Biden, on his way to either winning or singlehandedly losing his own party’s nomination, and in unique Joe Biden ‘style,’ here’s why the Democratic Party and its DPEs now have an even bigger problem than they did in 2016, when they conspired to cheat against Sanders and stack the nomination favoring Hillary Clinton.
Let’s assume that the DPEs get their way, Biden becomes the nominee. What happens now to not only the millions, but the tens of millions of Bernie Sanders supporters? No sane political party nor sane politician can afford to just ignore these huge numbers of voters pretending as if they do not exist. For they certainly do exist, they are a very real and powerful movement when united and focused, one strong enough to have forced the current dynamics on the DPEs, they didn’t seek this fight.
This is because career politicians and “progressives” like Nancy Pelosi want everyone to wrongly believe that everything is just fine in an America run and controlled by Democrats. Pelosi and her ilk even hold up the state of California as a “model example.” In California the Democrats have their super duper majority and still can’t stop more people from moving out of this once Golden State than are now moving to it. This has been true for almost 10 years. No other political party is responsible for this exodus. The Democrats own this economic debacle. Only it’s not just in California. Democrat controlled New Jersey, Washington and New York are also seeing the same patterns. Millions of Americans are moving away from what the Democratic Party elites cynically call paradise and proper governance.
Trump also sells the same schtick, only it is the Republicans who can do everything right, specifically him, in his as Trump himself described it, “In my great and unmatched wisdom.” Yes, oh Great One.
The Democratic Party is historically infamous from snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. To be blunt, the greatest political loser in American politics is Hillary Clinton. No one had ever received so many millions of more votes and still lost the White House than she did. Hillary and the DPEs lost not only the White House, they lost everything even by cheating, once again it was against Bernie Sanders.
If there was any ‘revenge’ factor, Sanders’ followers executed it in the best way possible — cold. Some 12 percent of them ended up voting for Trump. This margin was the difference. Had they voted for Hillary instead, Trump would today not be in the White House. Your move, DPEs.
