In the initial start of the Democrats race for the nomination, I thought it was Biden was/is still the DNC Establishment choice.
But he is taking a beating, and his remaining viability is very much in question at this point.
I thought Warren was looking to be the most likely candidate to win (least DNC Establishment interference). Now, she is looking weaker and weaker and falling behind.
Despite the MSM effort to ignore, marginalize, and or dismiss him, Sanders has real support, both in terms of voters and monies.
Buttigige, I have no idea why his voters find him appealing or the MSM. He is Clinton in a tie. I saw someone say that he will do anything to win. And that is why I dont like him. He reminds me of Clinton. Due to that, I think the DNC Establishment would back him, especially if it came down to Buttigige or Sanders.
I think the DNC Establishment loves Bloomberg for two reasons: He is Wall St. personified. They like that, money and power. And he has bags full of his own money he can spend against Trump. Money they dont have.
IF Sanders were to win, I think it would irrecoverably split the Democratic party. Sanders supporters would take seats in the DNC committees, and drive out the DNC Establishment. I am ok with that. It is the equivalent of driving a wooden stake into the hart of The Establishment vampire. Having said that, those in Congress, the non-progressive Democrats (aka Establishment) I think would fight against their own “Democrat” WH to maintain the status quo. Even if that means siding with the GOP to sideline/stop some of Sanders waayyyy out there ideas. The question is, who would his running mate be?
The only ones I like is Yang, Gabbard, just because they are by their own admission, outsiders. The DNC Establishment does not like that.
I like Klobachar, as she seems genuine to me.
Regardless, unless the Democrats can get their crap together behind one nominee, we will have another 4 years of Trump.
2024 . . . now that could be real interesting.
