This is a beautiful reaction to MSNBC’s atrocious coverage of Bernie Sanders. :lol:

 
Would you cheer the same "logic" for a Trump voter? If someone said that they voted for Trump because of MSNBC's negative coverage of Trump I doubt you would say that was a "beautiful reaction".

It's basically further confirmation of what I've been saying earlier concerning the attacks against him, and what should be all the more apparent every time a devastating backlash occurs against the people who try to take Sanders down:

I believe that, though the pummeling will very much be in the opposite direction.

It seems like nothing can stop him thus far, and the more people seem to disparage Sanders, the stronger he gets; though Teflon Don's ability to avoid lasting consequences from attacks may be impressive, it is nothing compared to a candidate who is like some kind of political Hulk in that he is not only impervious to attacks and smears, but just becomes more powerful for them.

If Bernie takes Iowa and NH, the powers that be better start preparing to either Epstein the man or rob him at a probable brokered DNC convention, as that's probably the only way he can be stopped; Bernie will eat Trump's lunch at the rust belt, which is where this election will be won or lost.

While the fascist regime of trump turns this nation further into a Reich-Wing dictatorship, one day at a time, supporters of the far-left socialist sanders further divide the only way to beat trump, a unified Democratic Party.

Keep in mind that it’s been SOME of sanders’s supporters — SS — that start this **** each and every new day, just like they did in 2016. Also keep in mind that this SS is afraid or ‘unwilling’ to attack trump.

There’s no question that ‘some’ of these SS members are actually trump supporters.

We know the video is worthless because it is apparently pro-Sanders, but is so worthless even you won't comment on it and you started this thread with it.

You were a Ron Paul supporter, weren't you? My guess is most Sanders white male followers were.

Ron Paulites now are Sander's internet trolls. As I predicted, they (you) will increasingly flood the Internet with "Watch THIS video!" and "read the cut and paste" in escalating trolling, spamming and bots. The result is most Republicans came to fully despise Ron Paul just as most Democrats will come to despise Bernie Sanders for his army of internet trolls.
 
The woman's a true idiot, voting because she is retaliating against MSNCB. The video should be titled "old white woman shouts at the sky." :roll:
 
The blogger claims Sanders is the most winnable candidate because he attracts young white men. Being from the whitest state in the USA, with less than 0.5% black population I'm certain white guys like the Sander's white male staffer who made the video supports Sander's "Make America Pure White Again" campaign. :lamo
 
Seems there are a lot of people voting for spite, revenge, hatred, and humor.

Idiots like this is why we have idiots in office. Voting to spite the other side, in revenge for the other side, hatred for the other side and because it would be funny to see reactions from the other side should result in voting privileges being taken away. If you can't vote based on the actual issues then you shouldn't be voting.

She actually seems like a very informed voter, and was pondering several candidates. It was the MSNBC coverage that tipped the scales in Sanders’ favour.

Fine, lets unify. What’s your plan? Which candidate? Should we unify around a progressive of a moderate (center-right) agenda? Specifically what should Bernie and his supporters do?

What the hell are you talking about? Who is afraid of attacking Trump?

Informed or not, she made her decision based on the actions of TV network rather than anything else. Voting to punish a TV show is stupid.

What if the "other" sides bad outweighs the good on your side?

I have to be honest I was channel surfing between fox, cnn, & msnbc after the debate and i was taken aback by the harshness of chris mattews toward Bernie. It was brutal.

I was watching CNN a little bit last night for NH primary coverage, and I couldn’t believe the anti Bernie sentiment. They totally fail at being neutral. They should actually do news coverage and research on why candidates like Trump and Bernie appeal to so many Americans, instead, they are just pissed off that they are lossing control of the system.

I understand why some people vote red for Trump, but I think most of his supporters are dumb for believing his lies, for believing Trump will drain the swamp, for believing Trump will protect their SSN and Medicare, and for believing Trump cares about America and isn’t trying to obtain power for the benefit of himself.

For years, I have criticized MSM and Fox. Fox simply enables everything a republican does, and they fail at holding Republicans accountable until it’s too late. The MSM and donor class are one in the same. The MSM doesn’t cover, research, nor educate the public or themselves on kitchen table issues and provide a constructive forum for policy development and discussion. Both sides of the media are compete failures in their own way, and both largely ignore average citizens. The entire media enables horrible leaders, the donor class system, and the status quo.

The MSM offers entertainment (which they pretend is "infotainment"), mainly in the form of confirmation bias, in exchange for advertising revenue. The NYT says it best with their motto "All the news that's fit to print" - who, exactly, is deciding what is fit to print (present), much less why, is never disclosed.

Most media bias is accomplished by simple omission - since not investigating/reporting something has zero cost and is very effective since it wastes no bandwidth which is then used to serve up confirmation bias and "news analysis".
 
Can Sanders REALLY play the victim-card all the way to the nomination?

Pity the 78 year old white millionaire socialist from a tiny state with a population that is 99.6% not black and who owns 3 houses and a $150,000 10 cylinder performance car? Seriously? Feel sorry for that ranting old white guy?

He's just another Democratic Party official ranting "DO WHAT I SAY, NOT WHAT I DO!!!" Why would anyone believe him? Because of his words? It's not like he's actually DONE anything consistent with his words OTHER than he loves Communist dictators in travels and personal evaluations.

Isnt it reasonable to vote against someone that you believe will do grave harm to the nation by voting for someone else that you might not necessarily support but think the country will be left in better condition than the alternative choice?

What does that have to do with my post? Nevermind it. Great point. You nailed it. :roll:

I think the MSM and Fox are both trying to maintain power in society. Their donors, lobbyists, and advertisers is who they really care about. Fox News viewers are not informed either. I also believe if a Democrat were in office, abusing power like Trump, I believe the MSM would be more likely to turn on that Democrat and so would the party’s base. Fox News is difference, because they cheerlead Republicans no matter what.

It’s a sign of how divisive society is now.

We have elites fighting against themselves, and regular people fighting against each other. There is way too much corruption in the power and elite class, and both media’s ignore it

There does seem to be a large overlap between Trump and Sanders supporters. I think that's because of them both being populists. They connect with the discontent and resentments of their supporters.

They do much more than ignore it - they encourage it and profit from it.
