That was great, I keep laughing at the other guy too (have seen it a few times now) when he says : "Oh these people are Nazis? So what do they have against us? I mean we're for... I mean we're not..." Like he's had to stop himself from saying something that might not have worked out too well, haha.

Do the Democrats actually have anyone not older than the cryptkeeper to put up as a potential president. FFS Bloomberg is 78 in Feb

Yeah but he's a lizard

You'll be so pissed when your missus sees this and gets you a My Little Pony for Christmas.

Pretty much the same look from the dog fella as from Zelenksy in their photo op.

 

"You are in the deep shit President Beans on Toast Face."

Weirdly I could understand most of that, well the important bits, anyway.

I am pretty sure you know very little about him and you may not have your finger on the pulse of American politics.

 

Just a guess based on your posting past.

 

Moof is an expert on the politics of every country in the world, mate. With an emphasis on the Americas. South, the US, Canada, etc... Guy knows it all.

You don’t have to be an expert to work out that a billionaire who owns a large proportion of that country’s media is not a good guy to run for president, you absolute simpleton. 
 

Knock this embarrassing shit off, please.

AAAAANNNNDDD -- he is back to male.

Ze is a non-binary nederhond. 

 

Old news by the way. Dutch media said it was male when news broke, despite US reports.

Last paragraph in there. 

[cloggypop]

While we are on Dutch dogs, they call a lapdog a kutlikker which literally means a cunt licker. 

[TheHowieLama]

I think it is a LGBT statement.

What's with the insults? I'm complimenting your impressive, unbelievably wide-ranging knowledge of politics. Just in awe that you can form an educated opinion about so many situations and politicians in so many countries.

Cut this shit out soft lad

For what it's worth, I listen to a fair bit of US news, and of the 6 or 7 channels I get, his is the only one that appears unbiased. 

 

And by unbiased, I don't mean the one that caters to my biases, but the one that clearly attempts to look at the current political situation in the US from various viewpoints.

 

Granted, it's a business channel, but it covers, of necessity, the political situation as well.

What that says about him personally is a little difficult to gauge.

 

But he is clearly a person who has accomplished a lot, both as a businessperson and a politician. 

 

If the polls say he has the best chance to beat Trump, he's the one I hope they pick.

Just popping in to say I love Bernie Sanders.

You get the feeling Don McGhan needs to be checking his breaks for the next few days.

I don’t think the polls say that, and I don’t think that’s a sound basis for choosing him over any of the other candidates who have a better record and better political instincts that poll well against trump. 
 

it’s also interesting to me that you find his news network to be “unbiased” - as that’s wildly different to my experience. 
 

my thoughts are that if we end up with a Trump vs Bloomberg election, it would be an absolute disaster for the prospect of democracy in that region and globally. 
 

saw a nice article earlier in the intercept

[TheHowieLama]

I know I have said this before but no Dem candidate is polling well against Trump in the electoral college, which is how the election works.

 

Not sure it makes sense to continue to beat that drum -- the last two Republicans to win the Presidency actually lost the GE.
