Support NeoGAF

[MThanded]

This guy on CNN is making me mad.

Democrats are dividing people by talking about real issues? GTFO

This is infuriating. I hate when people say they are colorblind.

 

[Mr. RPG]

He is doing amazing if you simply want him to remain in the field, he isn't if you want him to win.

Bernie does better than Hillary in many of the states that vote later in March. The election isn't over.

 

[Raxus]

Watching CNN it is a wonder just how some Republicans can get their heads sooooooo far up their own asses.

 

[Cagey]

Trump supporter.

Thanks. I turned to CNN mid fight. Anyone of importance or just a pundit supporter?

Edit: never mind they finally flashed his name.

 

[Yaboosh]

What did I just miss on CNN?

An impassioned argument.

 

[Einchy]

tl;dw for CNN right now.

Guy A: Trump needs to stop saying racist and horrible shit
Guy B: It's just like a Liberal to divide

 

[ahoyhoy]

Rubio looks like he just finished crying and his mouth is dry.

As far as I'm concerned the dude's political career ended the night he needed several drinks of water to finish a short rebuttal to the State of the Union. Everything I've seen of him thus far has lived up to that standard he set all those years ago.

 

[cpp_is_king]

Man VT is brutally close between Trump and Kasich. Does anyone know if VT is a winner take all state?

 

[RoKKeR]

The spin from that Trump supporter was disgusting. Mad respect Van Jones for going after him, fuck that dude.

 

[Steel]

What did I just miss on CNN?

A dude who really needs to be punched in the face not getting punched in the face.

 

[SecretDan]

Fuck this old white man.

 

[Black Republican]

Van Jones holy shit

 

[GK86]

I bet he has an #alllivesmatter bumper sticker.

 

[User 463088]

Nah, they are just being optimistic about the possibility of him winning Colorado and Minne.

With a close loss in MA and 4 wins, not a bad night for Sanders.

just 7% reporting in CO

But, it's not like you get 1 point for winning a state or something. It's all proportional.

Bernie won Vermont, he will gain 10 (or probably 16) more delegates than Hillary.
Bernie won Oklahoma, he will gain 6 delegates more than Hillary.
Hillary won Texas, at the moment, she's netted 78 delegates more than Bernie.
Hillary won Alabama by 60 points, she's netted 29 more delegates than Bernie did.
Hillary won Georgia by a big enough margin that she's netting 38 delegates.
Hillary won Tennessee by a big enough margin to net 24 delegates.
Hillary won Virginia by enough to net 26 delegates over Bernie.

Bernie's delegate gains are wiped out by Hillary's win in Alabama alone.

 

[Fine Ham Abounds]

I'm seriously considering unsubbing.

Guess I've gotta scratch off more former new atheist resources I patronized back in the day. This has been a weird 5 years or so for me.

 

[royalan]

"This is what liberals do, they separate people."

"Democrats/KKK murdered black people in the 50's to push the progressive agenda."

This guy is seriously ignoring the party flip.

WHY is this guy on my TV. How could he so completely ignore how the Democratic party flipped half a century ago? This was a middle school position he took and I'm frankly surprised Van had the patience. But I'm glad he did.

 

[RustyNails]

Fuck Anderson, why did you let that go on for so long?

Why not?

 

[Ghost is Bad]

too late liberalism is all about racism u heard it first on cnn

 

[LiK]

Fuck, I wanna watch CNN alright now.

 

[Dominican Power]

This is why I despise conservatives.

 

[A Human Becoming]

I'm so glad you're watching too. He's great tonight lol

He's the most honest Republican I've seen. Saying it not running strong conservatives wasn't why they lost in 2008 and 2012 and how they've fucked themselves with Latinos.

But, it's not like you get 1 point for winning a state or something. It's all proportional.

Bernie won Vermont, he will gain 10 (or probably 16) more delegates than Hillary.
Bernie won Oklahoma, he will gain 6 delegates more than Hillary.
Hillary won Texas, at the moment, she's netted 78 delegates more than Bernie.
Hillary won Alabama by 60 points, she's netted 29 more delegates than Bernie did.
Hillary won Georgia by a big enough margin that she's netting 38 delegates.
Hillary won Tennessee by a big enough margin to net 24 delegates.
Hillary won Virginia by enough to net 26 delegates over Bernie.

Bernie's delegate gains are wiped out by Hillary's win in Alabama alone.

Bernie can't make up how badly he loses with African Americans. His campaign failed to narrow the gap.

 

[Massive Duck. C.M.]

Don't be coy. Explain the difference as it pertains to his comparison. I don't mind being educated.

1) black people aren't hooked up to some main unit that tells us how to vote
2) Sanders' addressing of BLM and other black issues has not been satisfactory for a lot of people
3) Clinton has much higher recognition, especially among older black people
4) many people don't really believe in the idea of "revolution" after having been burned several times.

Thus, being told that we're too stupid to know what's best for us because all black people didn't fall in line for Sanders is fucking stupid. We had people suggesting eugenics in the primary/caucus thread.

The poor people/Republican thing is played out, but it's largely connected to single-issue voting over things like immigration, gay marriage etc despite the fact that Repubs bend over for business at the expense of lower and middle class citizens. But, there are poor black, Asian, Lation, LGBT people too. The biggest proponents of the poor people/Republican thing are mostly ivory tower liberals.

All this was googleable by the way.

 

[kingslunk]

That bit on CNN was fucking hilarious.

 

[Miles X]

Man VT is brutally close between Trump and Kasich. Does anyone know if VT is a winner take all state?

50% winner takes all, so it'll be proportionate.

 

[UraMallas]

Damn it. I watch CNN all night and miss the biggest moment of the night. I need a link to the exchange.

 

[Nipo]

I don't care about that. What I want is to wake up tomorrow knowing that Rubio didn't win a god damn thing today. I want Trump to snatch this dude's soul in a bottle like Link catching a fairy.

If you want Trump to get the nomination you should want Rubio to win MN. Cruz's call for Rubio to drop out will be laughed at if he wins a state.

 

[BFIB]

Tom Delay on MSNBC pretty much saying Trump wants to be king, and the party is going to devour itself.

Plus the meltdown on CNN.

Itshappeningisntit.gif

 

[Rubenov]

Rubio spewing crap on NBC

he thinks he's going to convention

He's only regurgitating what his GOP handlers are telling him

 

[Syder]

Holy shit, Van Jones is fucking slaying this Trump supporter. I love this guy.

I kinda feel like slaying Trump supporters is easy for anyone with half a brain. Hilary is going to go after all this shit Trump has been saying at rallies and in the end that's what's going to cost him the race. GOP must be tearing their fucking hair out right now.

 

[eyeball_kid]

Home state battle
ARKANSAS: Pretty good presumptive win for Hillary, with 68%.
TEXAS: Cruz with only 41% so far. Pretty sad showing for a Texas senator. Put another way, if this was only a Cruz-Trump battle, Cruz might not even win
VERMONT: Sanders currently at 86%, his home state definitely feels the Bern.

 

[Oriel]

Called the current Democratic Party the party of the KKK.

Maybe 50 years ago, not today which would align closer with the GOP. Crazy stuff, I couldn't believe the shit he was spouting.

 

[OpinionatedCyborg]

Man VT is brutally close between Trump and Kasich. Does anyone know if VT is a winner take all state?

proportional

 

[BreezyLimbo]

Fuck, I wanna watch CNN alright now.

all I've got is this shitty CBS stream.

I tried watching the CNN stream but it was like 'SIGN IN TO YOUR TV PROVIDER' man fuck off with that noise it's 2016 stream your damn news netwroks

 

[giga]

NYT: Sanders Campaign Will Travel On, but Path to Victory Is All but Blocked

 

[GK86]

Fox News ‏@FoxNews

.@marcorubio: "We're on the verge of turning the conservative movement over to a con artist."

 

[BowieZ]

Clinton double-digit: SC, TX, TN, GA, VA, AL, AR (The South!)
Clinton narrow: NV, MA
Basically tied: IA
Sanders narrow:
Sanders double-digit: NH, VT, OK, MN, CO*

35 states to go. Yeah of course delegates are heavier in the South so far, but if he can pick up momentum in the next 2 weeks it's not impossible. Unlikely, but not impossible.

 

[Madrin]

What I'm wondering is why you want to convince yourself that Trump is a moderate when you have candidates on the Dem side which are that way without the apparent personality disorder.

Oh I don't support Trump at all. I was just adding to FF Seraphim's point that Trump is the least insane candidate in the GOP.

 

[Emarv]

Even CNN knew better than to cut away from that.

Man. Now I'm all worked up.

 

[Already Torn]

Maybe 50 years ago, not today which would align closer with the GOP. Crazy stuff, I couldn't believe the shit he was spouting.

If that was 50 years ago, how do you explain Woodrow Wilson?

^That happened

 

[DirtyManos]

You gotta love that everyone else on that CNN panel is not calling out the bullshit that there wasn't a political realignment in the South due to the southern strategy's focus on fanning racism.

In their piece of shit weak-willed way, they frame it like both sides were valid in that bullshit exchange.

 

[excelsiorlef]

People confuse projected wins with what the candidate actually needed to do.

Hillary out performed what she *needed* to do today. All this 'but Sanders was X, Y and Z in the polls a week ago' doesn't mean anything.

It'll be interesting if somehow Sanders sticks in but falls just short.

He gave up entirely on the Southern States. It'd be interesting if of everything that costed him

 

[royalan]

HE FUCKING SAID "COLORBLIND"

WHO SAYS THAT IN 2016???

Why is this man being paid to be on my television.

I thought Amanda was going to be CNN's Dumbass of the Day (as per usual), but this dude came out of nowhere with the steal.

 

[plagiarize]

uh uh. 48% Sanders to 50% Clinton now. RESURGENCE!

You're just looking at votes coming in. I'm looking at projections based on *where* those votes came from, which way those demographics were voting and where has yet to report in.

And I'm telling you MN and CO are going to Sanders.

http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/...rat-delegate-estimates.html#g-state-anchor-MA

 

[boiled goose]

uh uh. 48% Sanders to 50% Clinton now. RESURGENCE!

Damn. looking at the precincts left... Sander has a shot. There are a few that will favor Clinton, but many of the ones with 0% reporting will likely go heavily Sanders. MA still not over...

 

[DontBeThatGuy]

Van Jones should busted out that Lee Atwater quote, and the mic would've been dropped. "Democrats divide by race". Fucking hell.

 

[Indicate]

That bit on CNN was fucking hilarious.

I was doing my work when suddenly I looked at the CNN feed and saw Van arguing at the trump supporter so I turned up the volume and ended up laughing the entire time.

 

[Bishman]

What is going on CNN? Is it on YouTube yet?

 

[Nipo]

1) black people aren't hooked up to some main unit that tells us how to vote

Yeah that whole narrative is really annoying. It is like when smug liberals tell working class voters they are stupid for voting Republican. It is paternalistic and condescending.

 

[Leona Lewis]

Van Jones with that history lesson. Dropping truth bombs left and right, yet old dude wasn't having any of it.

His Vitamin D-ficient bullshit seeped out into my room, Smell-O-Vision style.

 

[RoKKeR]

Wait, Rubio is going to win a state? Fuuuuuuuuuuuck

I needed the loser narrative to continue.
