Joe Biden said on three separate occasions recently that he had had 'the great honour of being arrested ... on the streets of Soweto trying to get to see Nelson Mandela on Robbens Island'. His campaign managers have admitted this never happened.

Was he waiting in Soweto to get onto the Robben Island ferry?

Out of interest, what do the Trump fans here on MyBB think of coronavirus? I see that Rush Limbaugh compares it to the common cold and says it's being misused as a weapon against Trump.

As a Trump supporter I see covid19 as a world threat and this might end up being the catalyst for the next financial crisis.

Democratic Leaders Willing to Risk Party Damage to Stop Bernie Sanders

WASHINGTON — House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senator Chuck Schumer, the minority leader, hear constant warnings from allies about congressional losses in November if the party nominates Bernie Sanders for president. Democratic House members share their Sanders fears on text-messaging chains. Bill Clinton, in calls with old friends, vents about the party getting wiped out in the general election.

And officials in the national and state parties are increasingly anxious about splintered primaries on Super Tuesday and beyond, where the liberal Mr. Sanders edges out moderate candidates who collectively win more votes.

Dozens of interviews with Democratic establishment leaders this week show that they are not just worried about Mr. Sanders’s candidacy, but are also willing to risk intraparty damage to stop his nomination at the national convention in July if they get the chance. Since Mr. Sanders’s victory in Nevada’s caucuses on Saturday, The Times has interviewed 93 party officials — all of them superdelegates, who could have a say on the nominee at the convention — and found overwhelming opposition to handing the Vermont senator the nomination if he arrived with the most delegates but fell short of a majority.

Such a situation may result in a brokered convention, a messy political battle the likes of which Democrats have not seen since 1952, when the nominee was Adlai Stevenson.

From California to the Carolinas, and North Dakota to Ohio, the party leaders say they worry that Mr. Sanders, a democratic socialist with passionate but limited support so far, will lose to President Trump, and drag down moderate House and Senate candidates in swing states with his left-wing agenda of “Medicare for all” and free four-year public college.

Mr. Sanders and his advisers insist that the opposite is true — that his ideas will generate huge excitement among young and working-class voters, and lead to record turnout. Such hopes have yet to be borne out in nominating contests so far.

Jay Jacobs, the New York State Democratic Party chairman and a superdelegate, echoing many others interviewed, said that superdelegates should choose a nominee they believed had the best chance of defeating Mr. Trump if no candidate wins a majority of delegates during the primaries. Mr. Sanders argued that he should become the nominee at the convention with a plurality of delegates, to reflect the will of voters, and that denying him the nomination would enrage his supporters and split the party for years to come.

“Bernie wants to redefine the rules and just say he just needs a plurality,” Mr. Jacobs said. “I don’t think we buy that. I don’t think the mainstream of the Democratic Party buys that. If he doesn’t have a majority, it stands to reason that he may not become the nominee.”

The fight in Milwaukee is going to be brutal! Is it going to be as bad as 1968?

What the heck is Turkey doing in Syria anyway. How would Erdogan like it if Syrian troops moved into his country....
And the Kurds can set up a base in Syria, it has nothing to do with Turkey.

That is already highly illegal. Which means that this bill is nothing but a political circle jerk.

Suspended for supporting socialism

Not remotely unusual. By far the most prevalent. You just don't care when it happens. :)

And that suspension was utter BS. Based on a fraud's manipulated account and bending to completely bad faith nonsense from right wing PC. :whistling:
