Biden looked weak. And Sanders was lying out his ass - like a
socialist Trump would do. It was not about taxes. Bloomberg was quite right. His programs were lies - not practical - did not address the actual problem. Sanders, for example, would guarantee a Trump victory. That was not in doubt.
Facts about Sanders are accurate and damning. His proposal after proposal is only based in political beliefs - rather then based in reality and actual problems. I have not a clue why anyone would vote for someone who has magic solutions without bothering to first identify a problem. And whose solutions do not solve anything.
That is not an honest man. That is someone only campaigning for support from the emotional - and not from people who learn facts before making a conclusion. Bernie would guarantee Trump's reelection. So Bloomberg (too late but he had to try) entered the race to provide moderates with an intelligent option.
The Economist accurately defined Sanders - who is and acts on the cover so similar to The Don. When Biden was tanking, we desperately needed someone who represents patriotic Americans - the moderates. Biden, getting his act together at the last minute, made Bloomberg unnecessary.
What just happened in the past 48 hours is one for the history books. We have never seen so much political change so fast.
Next question. Can Biden (so well known for being a nice guy) match or deflect insults by a master anti-American, Putin loving, presidential liar and crook? (I am being kinds to that scumbag.)
I was also surprised to learn some Warren proposals also were not based in addressing a problem. She proposed solutions solved only by raising taxes. As if money solves problems. (Only business school graduates make that claim.) I thought she was better than that.
I paid no attention to any of them until after Iowa. Everything before Iowa was irrelevant. After Iowa I was shocked, by learning the problems and reading facts, how bad Sanders was.
