Eh, you’ve wasting your time with most of Bernie’s supporters. In addition to all the other magical things they believe he can do, they’re convinced that he’s solved the problem of human mortality and that being almost 80 by 2020 wouldn’t pose any kind of significant risk to his being able to not dying or becoming…

To Bernie’s credit, the guy is not comfortable being deceptive or cagey with words.  So he is going to be blunt and honest.  Unfortunately the blunt truth is not a positive development for his campaign.  It is what it is.  At least he managed to make it to 78 without a heart attack or major health issue, which is…

Considering how many Splinter writers have “editor” in their title, it’s truly surprising how little editing they actually do. 

They’re counting on him to be healthy for at least 1-5 years.

It was not a well thought out statement. I’m a fan, but even I’m shaking my head at this. Dude, you just told us that you can’t handle the job.

“We were doing, you know, in some cases five or six meetings a day, three or four rallies and town meetings and meeting with groups of people,” Sanders said. “I don’t think I’m going to do that. But I certainly intend to be actively campaigning.”

Imagine being a “woke” “progressive” who hates Hilary Clinton because they swallowed 25 years of Republican propaganda about her being “corrupt” and blames her for her husband’s actions. 

Well seeing as how it took massive interference for her to lose by 77,000 votes I doubt that. Oh and Splinter’s “daddy” Bernie would get fucked up by Mondale sized margin also. All of you fake progressives fuck off and die

So that’s Splinters take.

Biden isn’t my guy but how does “completely fictional” gain the gloss of “largely unfounded?” There is no substance to the Trump/Ghouliani claims.  None at all...

I suspect it’s a case of “don’t interrupt your opponent when they are busy screwing up”.

George W. Bush was absolutely one of the single worst presidents in American history. No question. But the gap between Bush and Trump is incredibly vast, so if Ellen DeGeneres wants to demonstrate a little good will towards a former president—even a gross one—in order to signal what the modicum of acceptability is,…

The CIA’s general counsel and the White House National Security Council’s chief lawyer referred the Ukraine call to the DOJ for criminal referral, and it’s only after the DOJ squashed that referral that the whistleblower complaint was filed. The whistleblower is bringing a crime to light, but his or her credibility…

@DailyKos has reporting that he got illegal campaign contributions, along with Gardner and Tillis.

I honestly like Joe Biden and think he’s done a lot of hard, good work for this country. Obviously he’s made some mistaken that were EXTREMELY costly, but he isn’t a bad dude.

The potential for violence in the American system has always existed. We’ve seen it demonstrated repeatedly throughout history.

Pssshhh....if HamNo believed 10% of this he’d be stockpiling firearms and be calling for like minded individuals to arm themselves in preparation for the violence he describes as inevitable.

I take a little comfort in that there are more than us than them. So shelter in place. Have a shotgun if they break in your home. You should be okay.

Damn Ham! I really don’t know what to think now. I have always been of the mind that the rule of law and common sense would win, but you are addressing that itch in the back of my brain that knows how BASE his base really is. Now that you have scared me, how about writing a survival guide.

So what is your solution? What is a relatively sane person supposed to do to prevent this from happening?
