Re: International media reticence-- I think that’s pretty heavily linked to some of the potentially problematic stuff Reade published which makes a potential ratfuck seem way, way more plausible than it did for say the Ford accusation. 

When was this time? 

So...you’re hoping someone else re-enters the race or the DNC gives the nomination to someone who didn’t run? 

I mean I’m not a “timing” person but....he was a candidate for and then VP in 2008-2009, that’s not exactly a low stakes position.

So... At some point maybe you guys should look at how responsible you (the online left collectively, I have no delusions that the desiccated shell of the Gawker vertical tilted the primary) are for Biden being the nominee due to tearing down every single other alternative acceptable to the vast majority of the…

Who knows, clearly Sanders can’t appeal to more than 40% of Dems which makes him a non starter, Biden benefited from much the same effect that kept Sanders slightly competitive in 2016- the rest of primary voters rallying around them to avoid voting for their opponent. 

If it weren’t for the coma part I’d assume he’s talking about Harvey Weinstein- I could see them hanging out.

Supposedly 1K a day, in the 80s, during trading hours..... 

It doesn’t help that he and/or his wife apparently have a thing for the help- buying a Miami pool boy a hostel and their Virginia personal trainer his own gym (given the rumored photos of Mrs. Falwell it appears to be a swinger/cuckold thing).

Sure bro, you’re a “great friend of the Queen”

Cool, cool. Thankfully the motherfucker puts his name on everything so the “going into hiding” stage of regime change won't last too long

And yet, he was clearly the most attractive candidate to voters of those running in the Democratic Primary. 

This. They're memory-holing the inconveniet fact that Bernie and Biden had a 1v1 debate less than a month ago. 

So your argument is that the DNC should have ignored the will of the people, disenfranchised millions of largely minority voters and rigged the primary for Bernie Sanders, the man who received millions of fewer votes than his major opponent? 

If by “the people wanted Bernie” you mean a lot of people but millions less than wanted Clinton, then sure but I don’t see your point- Clinton acknowledged this by giving Bernie supporters a substantial role in drafting the 2016 platform and the DNC in term gave the Sanders camp seats at the table in the 2017 reform…

Wait... Please explain why the DNC would rig a state that virtually everyone conceded Biden would win for weeks? 

Fair, so clearly Biden shouldn't use the failed Clinton/Sanders strategies-- I know what if he uses Obama’s strategy-- which given that Biden has done better in turnout than any non-Obama Dem has ever done seems like a winner

If Rape accusations are so devastating then why is Trump president? 

If Biden is doubling down on Clinton's failed 2016 strategy what is Sanders doing other than doubling down in his own failed 2016 strategy? 

Or...or....and hear me out here- the guy whose base from the moment he entered the race was African-American voters didn't perform as well as other candidates in states where there were disproportionately fewer African-Americans?
