Oh yeah and the rest.... Kolbuchur & Steyer. They are done.


(democrats should have invited Bloomberg)
Mayor Pete has potential. But if you listen to his actual policies they’re pretty far left. I wouldn’t call him a moderate.

They are essentially the same as Biden.

I could go on and on.
25% of their population is foreign born, and their borders are literally open, since they are part of the schengen area. Population size is irrelevant.

The lack of understanding of what "per capita" means is truly mind-boggling.

So closed to all but valid EU passport holders or anyone having passed EU border controls.

That's like saying that Tennessee has open borders with North Carolina.

You guys are so disingenuous it's hilarious.

This goes with something I posted before. The new moderate is really a liberal. The democrat party has shifted so far to the left, the people now considered moderate would have been called super far left wing just a few years ago. The dems have embraced socialism, global climate activism, abortion almost anytime/anywhere with taxpayer funds, taxpayer funded college tuition, minimum wage hikes to promote living wages, open borders and blanket amnesty for illegal immigrants.

This might make Amy look centered in a super left surrounding, but she isn't and neither is Tulsi. They are both just slightly less nuts in a field full of liberal whack jobs. The dems have changed their party to the point it is unrecognizable, and I doubt they will ever return it to center. If there is ever a new third party that comes into mainstream, I think it will be dems who left the asylum to find a new home.

The Democrats can’t win without teachers unions and big education. Yang supported school choice so he had to go.

Damn, isn’t this like the 50th debate, or does it just feel like it. I wonder if ABC will just turn it into a sitcom.

Much like Georgia and Florida border. There is no passport control on their borders.
