    The whole close-minded thing is funny too. The supporters of other candidates are the ones out here telling bernie supporters his ideas are too idealistic and will never happen.

    but hey, the close minded ones are the people who aren't exactly supportive of candidates who won't do s*** for the working class. got it

    So it's an opinion but youre out here trying to peddle it as a fact. gotcha.

    I feel like by nature that is inherently an opinion, don't see how it could ever be a fact to ever call someone/a group a******s without it being an opinion lol.

    Then why are you trying to make it seem like a fact lol? "Trump supporters of the left" "close minded"

    you can say its an opinion but what youre really doing is generalizing some 5 million people lmao

    Aye fam, I actually totally feel you on that. I support Bernie and will be voting for him, but by far and away the thing I dislike most about him are his supporters. Vast majority of them are insanely closed-minded and just straight up a******s to anyone who doesn't agree with them lol. Basically the left version of Trump supporters. But I've just realized you need to separate his supporters from him and his policies. (Not sure if that all came off as sarcastic, but it wasn't lol)

    That being said, I'm also extremely realistic. In 2016 it was just Bernie and Hillary, so it was a very different situation. Voting for Bernie then didn't mean you were preventing another left candidate who had a better chance of winning the nomination from stopping Hillary from getting the nomination.

    Oh i know im not the guy vote based off emotion like that but there are plenty of Yang supporters who might be. I like bernie but ive maybe had one convo with one of his supporters that wasnt just calling me ignorant cuz i like yang lmao.

    I think the time is really ticking on Yang's campaign to see if he even has a long shot at this point but the movement he has isnt pointless because there's gonna be an election in 2024. If trump wins this time, that next election is wide open and Yang will be in a similar spot bernie is in now except he actually has age on his side.

    That's my view

    Also, main reason I say that is because most Bernie supporters will not take a second to consider anyone other than Bernie, and have no desire to compromise on policies whatsoever. That is exactly like Trump supporters. But I am totally open to being proven wrong if that's not true.

    The DNC is corrupt af. They are doing Yang the same way they did Bernie last time around. I'm surprised they aren't f***ing up Bernie's campaign again.

    At this point I consider myself fully a Yang supporter but it doesn't change the fact that there isn't a single thing I dislike about Bernie. Bernie is the more realistic option ofc

    Why should any other candidates be considered lmao? should we be looking at amy kloubacher or something?

    the compromising on policy thing is stupid as f*** too. people have been talking about compromise in politics for a long time, and where has that gotten us? massive income inequality, a corrupt health care system, and huge racial and gender disparities. f*** that.

    Everyone already has their mind made up on trump by now i dont think money can change that, itll be close but i think its all about who's the nominee for the dems he can def be defeated

    Well in 2016 a lot of Republicans didn't vote for him because they didn't trust his experience. Those Republicans have warmed up to him by now and it's far more likely they will vote for him than a Democrat any day unless Biden gets nominated. He could probably win a few neocons and independents over but all the young "woke" Dems won't vote for him. I can't see any of the Democratic candidates uniting all of the Democratic base like Obama did.

    trump supporters - dont want to compromise from building a racist border wall

    bernie supporters - dont want to compromise from giving everyone healthcare and the chance to go to college

    you, the enlightened political commentator; "these are the same thing"

    Bruh....you're just proving what I was saying in the post I was making.

    I didn't ask for you to explain why you're right in feeling that way. All I said is that Bernie supporters are closed minded lmao.

    I mean ok but I don’t see what that has to do with what I said
    You were saying ultra liberals/leftists won’t vote for biden right? To get trump out of office I believe they will in greater numbers than Never Trump conservatives

    You are correct. Way more people will vote against Trump this time around from the liberals/left than did last time
