Tale of two stories!

Democratic megadonor urges Pelosi and Schumer to pick a candidate in a bid to stop Bernie Sanders
Democratic megadonor Bernard Schwartz has started reaching out to party leaders, particularly House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, to encourage them to back a candidate for president in order to stop the surge of Sen. Bernie Sanders
“We should know who is the best person to beat Donald Trump, and with all due respect, Bernie Sanders cannot beat Trump,” he explained, describing the message he has relayed to the two Democratic leaders.
Pelosi says she'd be comfortable with Sanders at top of ticket
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) on Wednesday said she would be comfortable with Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) as the Democratic presidential nominee in November.
The congresswoman was asked the question as she was leaving a closed-door meeting in the House basement Wednesday morning. She replied with one word: "Yes."

This, of course is the dilemma for the Democrats. They do not want Bernie Sanders as their candidate (that much is obvious) but they also do not want to go full throttle "against" Bernie, in case he wins the nomination. This is very similar to what was taking place during the 2016 Republican primary season. It ended up tearing the Party apart into two (albeit one very small and one very large) segments of the Party. In fact, one could argue that the nomination of Trump turned certain Republicans into Democrats.

We'll see what happens if Bernie gets the nod. One thing is for certain, and that is that there will be some Democrats (and plenty of Independents) who will simply not want to vote for someone who is an open socialist and pushes the far left policies that Bernie stands for. Trump may have been a lot of things, but he is still pretty much GOP mainstream as it pertains to policy.

Obama's legacy is a socialist democrat party. All the moderates are trumpocrats.

the only gripe i would have with your post is this -

In fact, one could argue that the nomination of Trump turned certain Republicans into Democrats.

these folks were never republicans in the truest sense. they're what WFB called "well fed republicans." basically RINO grifters who were quite content appearing on MSDNC and the like as the token conservative/republican (kristol, schmidt, goldberg, hayes, rubin, wilson, french, sykes, et. al.) and who loved cashing checks written by liberals who allowed them to maintain their charade.

trump exposes all these fucking assholes for the con men that they are.

i personally know of no republican who became a democrat because of trump, but i know of several democrats who will vote for trump in 2020.

"The New York Times reported Thursday that in interviews with 93 superdelegates, only nine said that Mr Sanders arriving at the convention with a plurality was reason enough to support him as nominee. "

The whole sordid story how Mike Pence cost many lives in indiana's HIV epidemic......Eat shit and die goat fucker...you useless pile of dog shit.!!!!!! But its' just a big yawn for the unemployed dolts.....BWAAAAAAAAA!!!!

Vice President Pence spoke about the federal efforts to contain the coronavirus during a speech Feb. 27 at the Conservative Political Action Conference. (The Washington Post)
When President Trump announced that Vice President Pence would lead federal efforts against the spread of the coronavirus, he said Pence was the right person for the task because of his experience.
“He’s got a certain talent for this,” Trump said at a White House briefing about the virus, which has infected nearly five dozen people in the United States so far.
The announcement has cast light on Pence’s record as a lawmaker and his handling of a major public health crisis during his time as governor of Indiana. The worst HIV outbreak in the state’s history happened on his watch in 2015, which critics blamed on Pence’s belated response and his opposition to authorizing a needle-exchange program.
In 2011, as a member of Congress, he voted to cut funding for Planned Parenthood. Two years later, a Planned Parenthood clinic that had been the only HIV-testing center in Scott County, Ind., closed after public health spending cuts, HuffPost reported.

Trump downplays fears of coronavirus spread in news conference

Two months passed from the start of the outbreak in 2015 before Pence declared a public state of emergency.

The spread of the disease was attributed to people injecting Opana, an addictive painkiller, with shared needles. But Pence didn’t agree with federal health experts that distributing clean needles was a good idea.
“I don’t believe effective anti-drug policy involves handing out drug paraphernalia,” he told the Indianapolis Star at the time. Despite assurances from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention that it is an effective way to halt the spread of infections and diseases such as HIV and hepatitis B and C, Pence said if state lawmakers tried to send him a bill for a needle-exchange program, he would veto it.
As cases spiked, Pence reportedly turned to prayer.
After 75 people were confirmed to be HIV-positive, Pence announced he would allow a 30-day needle exchange.

Nothing but wild accusations and conspiracy theory tying of events to form a narrative.

Let's start with the central fact that there is absolutely no evidence that needle exchanges reduces the rate of HIV infection or any other infection for that matter and we have a good deal of data on that courtesy of Denmark where needle exchanges were legal for years.

Seems the key fact for HIV infection is engaging in risky behavior and the availability of needle exchanges doesn't reduce it. In fact, (the unintended consequences, no surprise there) it actually increases risky behavior because the needle exchange gives them a false sense of security.

Fox Nation is running a series called an unauthorized history of Socilisim.

It's a series that unflinchingly outlines the soul killing destruction of freedom as well as the economic depravity of this ideology.

Kudos to Fox for doing it. Unfortunately the people who need to see it are the fools who don't watch Fox.

Pence stated, “The president also directed me to reach out. I spoke to Speaker Pelosi. I spoke to Sen. Schumer. … They were good conversations.”

Vice President Mike Pence was tapped to lead the government's response to coronavirus because President Donald Trump said he didn't "have anything else to do," the New York Times reported.

The Trump administration's approach to coronavirus so far has faced bipartisan criticism in Washington, and Democrats have slammed Trump's decision to put Pence in charge.

Pence continues to face criticism over a bungled response to an HIV outbreak in Indiana while he was the state's governor.

President Donald Trump told people he put Vice President Mike Pence in charge of the government's response to coronavirus because he didn't "have anything else to do," the New York Times reported, per people familiar with the president's comments.

The Trump administration has faced bipartisan condemnation over its approach to the coronavirus so far, as public health experts excoriate the president for contradicting warnings from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Amid apparent concerns over the impact panic over coronavirus will have on the stock market, the White House is attempting to tighten control over information government health officials and scientists make public, the Times reported. They're reportedly being directed to coordinate all statements and public appearances through Pence.

The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Insider.
