Bernie came out with yet another massive plan today. We could do better, but this is a nice compromise that no other candidate will even come close to.

 

Some highlights:

-National rent control

-Ending homelessness

-Ending the concept of housing as a speculative investment

 

Be on the lookout for Warren's diet, means-tested version of this plan in a few weeks.

Amigo, there has to be a transition that isn’t strictly Medicare for All, regardless of how the bill is written. I’ve supported Medicare for All for a long time now. I still support it. When speaking

I know some people don't want to hear it, but it's going to be Bernie and if it is, he's gonna win.

His illegal/dirty money was given to Democrats.

 

I guess it's only a problem if it's on the Republican side of things...

 

Rumors about dirty money on the Repub side is more of an issue than it actually happening on the Dem side of things. 

 

Both sides have dirty money. No one is pretending that there aren’t any slime balls who support Dems.

 

But I’m glad you are coming out in support of Elizabeth Warren and her anti-corruption campaign...

Sanders reached the milestone seven months after he announced his candidacy in February, faster than any candidate ever.

 

In July, the Sanders campaign announced it had received one million donations.   

 

According to the campaign, Sanders "continues to be the only Democratic candidate with more individual contributions than Donald Trump." 

The campaign also presented this statistic in its release — "in counties nationwide that flipped from Obama in 2012 to Trump in 2016, Sanders has received more than 81,000 donations, which is three times the next Democratic candidate and more than the next three Democratic candidates combined."

Trump campaign pessimistic about winning Michigan again.  The president's troubles in the Rust Belt state are a potential warning sign for his reelection prospects.

 

MACKINAC ISLAND, Mich. — Donald Trump has long heralded Michigan as the crown jewel of his 2016 victory. But the president's campaign team is increasingly grim about a repeat performance in the traditionally blue Rust Belt state.

 

After a midterm election that decimated the ranks of Michigan Republicans, Trump's campaign is looking to other battlegrounds he lost last time — such as Minnesota and New Hampshire — that it sees as more promising.

 

The assessment illustrates how Trump’s support in the Rust Belt states that propelled him to the presidency has softened, jeopardizing his prospects for a second term. While they say it’s too early to write off Michigan — Trump aides say the campaign still intends to pump resources into the state — a range of public polling has shown Trump in poor shape here.

 

“It’ll be tough,” said Greg McNeilly, a veteran GOP strategist in Michigan. Though the president overcame tough odds in 2016, winning the state by 10,704 votes, or less than 1 point, McNeilly expects Democratic turnout to be stronger in 2020. “Trump is the underdog,” he said,...

A new national survey shows Elizabeth Warren now sitting atop the 2020 Democratic field, further cementing her ascendancy in the party’s presidential primary after a pair of polls showed her leading in the first two primary states.
 

Twenty-seven percent of Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents polled by Quinnipiac Universitysaid they favor Warren, according to a new poll released Wednesday morning. Twenty-five percent said they prefer former Vice President Joe Biden.

 

Although Warren’s edge falls within the survey’s margin of error, Biden’s formidable lead over the rest of the field has crumbled since the last Quinnipiac national poll in August, which showed him with 32 percent support and Warren with 19 percent support.
