Fool. Dementia Joe is in a perpetual state of confusion. He doesn't know what state or city he's in.

Enjoy your loss.

Nice quote. Definitely relevant in this primary.

I can't find it, but I saw someone put together a compilation of Biden "check please" moments in various interviews where he clearly loses his train of thought and goes completely blank while trying to make a very simple point.

Biden has Hillary-esque enthusiasm polling numbers and only a slight lead in key battlegrounds over trump. It is amazing that the Dem establishment is just driving the bus off the cliff this way.

And he’s been trouncing Bernie. What would you have the DNC do?

2) Senator Sanders said he'd make all public universities tuition free. That would have been cost neutral. If all federal government grants to private colleges and private universities were eliminated, it could have been done without one additional penny from U.S. tax payers.

Support? I find it hard to believe that the total amount of government grants to private colleges is equal to the total amount of tuition paid to public universities from students. But I'm willing to be wrong.

I feel federal government gives a lot of grant money to private colleges and private universities. Do not forget subsidized student loans for students to attend private colleges & private universities. We can look at the French model. They have a system for tuition free public colleges and public universities. The only way France was able to achieve their goal of tuition free public universities was by 100% cutting off private colleges and private universities.

Know if Sanders were president and public universities were tuition free, college football and college basketball coaches would no longer earn over one million per year as some do now.

Exactly, the “Dem Establishment” sound bytes are over played and ring completely hollow now.

Biden trounced Sanders, plain and simple.

I feel...

Hey man I'm willing to give you bros a fair shake, but unfortunately this is what I get far too often from your ilk for "support".

No I certainly am doubtful and curious how cutting off government spending on private schools would cover making all public universities tuition-free. That's why I asked for support - ya dig? Because it seems unlikely to me. And your support, to this point, has been "feels".

If you are implying my posts on this thread have made you more apt to vote for Biden or vote for trump, what can I say. You know I have no ability to post all money DoD &/or C.I.A. pump into private colleges/private universities. You want me to find all grants, secret or not secret U.S. federal government pump into private colleges/private universities. I am moving on.

I'd have them stop suppressing the voters and rigging the machines.

I want you to refrain from making definitive statements on how much significant policies will cost the country when the real basis of your figures is your feelings. That is pretty clearly misleading. It is easy to make a candidate sound good when you lie and say that they can give you all these things and it won't cost one penny.

C'mon, man!

And yet Trump is losing to Biden.

Sorry poster. I won't change because you do not like what I stated regarding federal aid to private colleges and private universities will pay for public university tuition. Prove me wrong. If we are going to go back and forth until Biden loses or wins at some time, fine. Prove me wrong. I stated what I stated. You will find it impossible to find all federal grants. You prove me statements incorrect.

The Democrat convention has been pushed from July to August.

Now it's scheduled one week before the Republican convention.

I still don't if it's a good idea to hold it the same way, with people flying in and gathering.

This election may be more about which party adapts better to the changing environment and can still get their message out.

Four more months of Biden dementia free fall ... Yikes.

This is why you bros get a bad reputation. You make an outlandish claim and think the onus is on those who call you out to prove wrong your unsupported statement. How can I place any faith on the estimated costs of Bernie's ideas when his movement has this approach?
