  • Ah, the air is so much fresher here...
On Tuesday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “All In,” Senator Bernie Sanders (I-VT) stated that, despite winning the Democratic primary, he will run for re-election in 2018 as an Independent.

Bless your heart Bernie.  He must still be really pissed about 2018 and the way the party of Hilary screwed him like a tied up goat.   An Indy run at Pres is his way of getting even!

I really hope Bernie runs as an Independent for President in 2020.   Trump should send him a "Thank You" note if he does.

Just a guess here, but you didn't even read the excerpt, did you?

Why would I.  It's about Bernie.

You took the time to comment.

Poorly.

Like he always does. Run as an independent but continue to caucus and fund the DNC.

That's excellent news for Republicans.  If the crazies vote Bernie, there's not much left ...

Can you put that in a tweet for me?

That's ok.  As long as he Ross Perot's the rats, I'm good with how he spends his cash...lolol.  This will provide a probably much-needed boost for the GOP in 2020, cause who knows what will happen between now and then... :shrug:

NOOOOO!!!!  That would tip poor old not-that-bright-Bernie off.  Trump should just keep his trap shut for a change and chuckle inwardly.

Methinks he'll be pushed to the bench by Kamala and Gavin. Both are from California, and have liberal bona fides. The Northeastern primary vote will be challenged by Fauxcahontas, as well.
