    That’s actually a good point re: Joe Rogan but I also think you’re underestimating how much anything even tangentially related to communism still scares some people. I can’t say how many of those people would be swing voters vs. people who are diehard dems/republicans however.

    But I also just looked it up and Rogan’s numbers are insane. Fox averages 2.4 mil viewers, Joe has more than twice that many subscribers on YouTube alone and that doesn’t account for people who listen on the podcast app, Spotify, etc. Of course that doesn’t mean 6 mil+ people are listening each ep but that’s a crazy reach nonetheless. Couldn’t find anything on his average number of listeners for each ep but I know really popular ones like the Elon Musk interview have like 25 million views on YouTube alone.

    Still no results?
    They are really embarassing themselves tbh, everybody interprets this as "oh my god what do we do how can biden be 3rd or 4th do we falsify the results or what"

    This is what happens when Bernie-led changes get implemented to already f----- up systems.

    Every single time Bernie is smeared and fuckery is going on by the dnc and media...his donations go up and more people support him. So please, keep up the smears and shady behavior. Bernie is going to win and you can’t stop the movement.

    Lol mayor Pete’s campaign invested money in the company they hired to develop the app...which I’m not saying means he rigged it but it’s just sketchy and a strange decision (unless all the viable candidates put up money but I haven’t seen anything about that)

    Caucuses are legit kinda fun but they’re also an extremely stupid and dated way to do things. I’m glad Washington became a primary state (though I’m not registered there anymore). I think it’s just Iowa, Wyoming and one or two more that still do caucuses now.

    We should not be relying on the math skills of regular citizens lol.

    I mean...rich people are powerful and want to stay rich and the dems don’t want someone who isn’t a democrat running on their ticket. I don’t think having a healthy dose of skepticism is conspiratorial.

    @Papa Alpha Andy out of curiosity why are you so certain Bernie can’t win against trump?

    Status quo defenders like you who think they’re the smartest ones in the room will get Trump re-elected.

    Gotta love those mature centrists. They really know how s--- works!

    not me.

    good lord lol. a caucus in iowa implementing tech for the first time bc PEOPLE LIKE YOU keep whining about bernie being 'mistreated' is hardly the same thing as russia and trump. this is local dems overextending to appear fair when they rly shouldnt have to...... NOT a huge "looking glass" edgelord moment. this is why ppl make comparisons bw trumps base and bernies, a kind of grand delusion where your own personal pref and instincts are above reproach bc it must be the syyyyyssssstemmmmm thats at fault.

    edit: sorry i just cant believe the implication here is jim crow disenfranchising millions of black voters is on par with a bunch of white (affluent) entitled iowans not IMMEDIATELY being able to crown bernie king. yikes.


    oh hey @Head Bussa is making perfunctory points with random Tweets again - fun!

    They ensure they’re handling the app issues with the highest integrity. Grow up and be a mature big boy like papa Andy. You lefties are something else.

    explain that to me...how is what’s happening right now related to alleged “DNC election rigging” in any way?
