The 2020 Democratic Primary Will Be A ‘Woke-Off’
20th February 2019
On today’s show we get deeper into the 2020 Democratic field as crazy Uncle Bernie tosses his hat in the ring. To celebrate, video of a 1985 interview with Bernie has resurfaced in which he celebrates communism and bread lines while complaining about then-President Ronald Reagan. Sen. Elizabeth Warren wants to make child care a right, and Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand wants the government to create a new third gender. It’s a woke-off.
The conventional wisdom about political campaigns is that the candidate runs to one side to get the nomination and then runs back toward the middle to do as well as possible in the election. It will be interesting to see, in a field that starts practically on the edge of the world already, how any eventual candidate is going to make it back to the fringe, much less the center.
I don’t think Trump will have anything to worry about, should he choose to run for re-election. Mike Pence could beat any of this crowd.
