Joey Biden. The guy just talks like an ol' timey politician. Fancy, empty, words conjuring up fanciful, yet meaningless images of non existent paradise that only Joey Biden can lead us to. But it's all lies. Biden is bought and paid for by the big boys. He's never really cared about the American people, and he is not going to start now.
If the militias are that scary…..why didn't ObamaBiden do something about it? They had 8 years. Hard to trust status quo talking heads protecting status quo politicians … maybe if "progressives" hadn't caved for 40 years buying into the "not now, next time" lies fo the Dem Party, and voted in masse for 3 rd party,,,,we wouldn't be here. Don't see how electing a charming neo-liberal fascist is any better than electing a crude neo-con fascist. You end up at the same place, one just slower than the other…..neither of those voting options get you out. Making a 3rd party viable this election, can stop the fascism climb.
The democratic party has gone part of the way to winning. You need the progressive vote to finish the job. Tell Peloci to stay out of the way. Why in the he??? would the democratic party support a republican against a democratic progressive running for office? Black people we need our on party. We will support people that have out best interest included in their ticket. Somebody help me out here.
If you really love the American people, you would support Medicare for All!
you’d do all out to save our country and planet through a real robust fast acting Green new Deal!!!!
Cynicism is reactionary. This thread is full of it, plus ignoramuses and fake leftists. Most of these comments help the neo-fascist Trump.
Take a look at these comments; nobody's fooled by Zogby.
The left coalition may be wider and deeper, but it’s more of a prisoner. The fact is, the right is in control of all the levers of control of the Dem. The Left went to sleep under Obama. They don’t have more influence inside the Party. Bernie has deliberately herded the Left into a Party they can’t change. After 200 years, haven’t the US Left learned a thing? Bernie had the mass base, money and potential to build a mass independent Left Party and blew it. Give me a break!
Well Trump won.
Nope, let it all go to the abyss and then recover. The DNC already hijacked the word "Progressive" for themselves. They will steal anything.
Joe Biden plagiarized that speech from a Democratic Canadian.
TRNN – Please interview the Green Party candidates !!! (instead of these guys)
This guy is a good example of what is wrong with 'progressives' within the DNC, delusional. He even gives examples of small successes but can't see or conclude from them that the progressive mandate of the party membership was always compromised as a result of having to work within the DNC and its lobbyist/funders. There is no way forward until there is a third party. I hope TRNN picks better for their upcoming interviews. And if they were to bring guys like this – please interrogate them, don't give them an easy pass – people want change, not more of the same. BTW there is a third party – the Green Party ! Why doesn't TRNN switch to covering them !!!
Gaslighting.
Typical leftish bourgeois media. Here they are, sheepdogging voters into voting for a corrupt, bloodthirsty, warmongering corporatist. Let me guess, 'lesser of two evils'? "Worst president ever'? "We can't stand another four years of this."? LOL what a load of tired, boring horseshit. How dare you suggest that voters who won't surrender their franchise to shambling death rattle and emblem of a corrupt corporate state are "privileged"!!! Privilege is demanding poor people settle for half a bowl of shit because the full bowl is just too much. FO arrogant, elitist, bourgeois, counter revolutionary leftish posers!
First let me preface by how much I respect this channel
Second, to answer your question about who the hell are they? The answer is no they don't live comfortable lives to the contrary they lost everything
The DNC robbed them of all hope and decency
Your nice Joe and his bosses should have presented a plan instead of singing lullabies to the moderate Republicans
There were war criminals after war criminals speaking to us about decency
WTF is wrong with YOU
Have you become a person who sits behind a fancy desk and theorizes about what it means to be a worker in today America?
Have you forgotten that the fascist president in power today is nothing but the product of 8 years of Obama and the Bush family?
Fix the system before blabbing about what is wrong with us people
Offer a few solutions to give hope and tangible projects that truly heal
If Trump wins and it is looking like he might every day now, that's on you and your rotten party
Fuck broken promises we have a choice between a fucked up insane psycho who is burning the country to the ground and another who is clearly run by dark money and war Lords
It doesn't matter who wins
Both killed hundreds of thousands of innocent lives and they will continue
The invasion of Iraq that continues today after 17 years for no reason other than oil and gas and to give Russia a headache
All while over 50 million Americans are going hungry
Fuck fake democracy at least with Trump it's the real face of the dark money and the ugly truth about how evil a fake democracy could get
The real enemy here is an educated progressive platform bc it would break the Zionist fascist war mongering lobbies who use tax payer money to grow their wealth and everything is game political assassination, invasions, colonization, illegal testing of vaccines on the poor in Africa to name a few dark sides
…… Fuck the DNC
What if trump steals it so he has enough electoral votes? Will Biden roll over like Gore and Clinton did? Remember justice Robert Jackson, who was the lead us prosecutor at Nuremberg said, “The constitution is not a suicide pact!â€
This is a moment for the Progressives. Time for a major shift in the Republican Party.
I want Mr Zogby is right. But I have NO hope that I
He is. This entire process has been to show the democrats would rather lose with Republicans, than win with progressives. Biden offers us NOTHING. No legalization, no single payer, no living wage, no protection from eviction. He even wants send the police MORE money! He's giving us squat, and me he's daring us to NOT vote for him. He's playing chicken with us, thinking we're going to blink. Put down the caviar fork, professor. People are poor, scared, angry. Biden MAY win, but, the next Trump will make this one look pathetic.
ZOGBY: "THERE'S A HEZBOLLAH UNDER EVERY BED…." YEAH, NOW TELL US HOW IRAN IS THE BIGGEST SUPPORTER OF STATE SPONSORED TERRORISM…..
NOTICE THAT EVERY PERSON EXHORTING US TO VOTE BIDEN: WILL NOT BE WITHOUT HEALTHCARE; WILL NOT BE HOUSING INSECURE; WILL NOT GO TO BED HUNGRY; WILL NOT HAVE THEIR FUTURE DESTROYED BY STUDENT OR MEDICAL DEBT; WILL NOT HAVE THEIR RELATIVES TORTURED IN PRISON; ON AND ON….IT IS EASY TO ABOUT WORKING REFORM WHEN SELLING OUT TO THE AGENDA THAT IS DESTROYING THE PLANET…
