Threat to democracy

[Scooby]

You are making yourself into a pretzel. Here, tell us which you disagree:

1. People voted for delegates, or more specifically Biden delegates
2. Delegates voted for harris

Which part you disagree with? And which part was “appointed” rather than “elected”?

Tell me which statement you disagree with:

1) Not a single democrat taking place in either a primary or a caucus voted for Harris.

What democrats did was legal. Had Biden died Kamala would have become president without getting a vote.

Still his stepping down was more about being behind in the polls than concerns over his mental acuity.

It is a bit galling that democrats are the ones lecturing about democracy.

 

[Starcastle]

How does wanting foreign nationals voting in our elections supporting democracy?

You let people into our country and then fight against voter ID. You want them influencing out elections!

I neither know nor care what the democrat party rules are. What happened was completely unprecedented and I suspect they simply made up the rules as they went. That aside, I have stated several times that as a private political party, they can legally do whatever they want, including screwing over their own constituency.

- ok so you don’t know and you don’t care. Yet you opine. Great!

- yes as we have agreed it was unprecedented.

- what you “suspect” is not evidence. If you have any present them.

- your “that aside” is merely your opinion. Thanks for sharing it.

They have every legal right to have a group of about a half dozen people who control the party decide who the nominee is. Just don't be so stupid as to tell us this individual was democratically elected as the nominee.

It was not a group of ten. The delegates overwhelmingly voted for Harris.

It was not dictatorially. Delegates voted. That is the essence of democracy.

Are you suggesting that the electoral college appoints primary candidates without the necessity for public elections?

I am clearly saying that voters pick electors who then vote
Just like how political parties work
Neither is based 9n winn8ng the popular vote duh
God you are stupid

 

[pjmret]

Not by the 15 million people of the democrat party who voted in primaries this past year. Not a single one of those 15 million people voted for her.

Because Biden hadn't dropped out yet
Duh

 

[pjmret]

They have to come up with some lame excuses and weasel excuses for her.

So you are too stupid to understand politics too lol

 

[Scooby]

- ok so you don’t know and you don’t care. Yet you opine. Great!

I neither know nor care what the rules are, I only know what they did. And yes, I have an opinion regarding what they did.

I know you hate the fact that people you disagree with have the right to their opinions, but too bad.

- yes as we have agreed it was unprecedented.

- what you “suspect” is not evidence. If you have any present them.

Whether or not they followed their own rules is not the thesis of my argument, so I have no obligation to present any evidence. I believe they made up the rules as they went. As we both agree, the situation is completed unprecedented so it is perfectly plausible that they didn't have any rules in place to deal with a situation no one could have imagined. Regardless, I really don't care whether or not that is the case.

- your “that aside” is merely your opinion. Thanks for sharing it.

No, it is a fact. You being in denial does nothing to change that.

It was not a group of ten. The delegates overwhelmingly voted for Harris.

The delegates took their marching orders from the small handful of party leaders who told them how to vote.

It was not dictatorially. Delegates voted. That is the essence of democracy.

Like I said.... if we cancelled all general election voting today and appointed Barack, Bill and Nancy to decide the next President, and they chose Kamala, then according to your moronic logic, that is the essence of democracy.

You are humiliating yourself with your denial. You would look infinitely less foolish if you simply said "look, nobody voted for her but I am comfortable with the selection, and I support her over Trump." Instead, you have this peculiar obsession with denying reality.

You nailed it. Anybody who has an issue with it will be called a racist and a Nazi.

 

[Starcastle]

Is this guy a threat to democracy?

He says that men who do not vote for Harris are bigots who hate women and should be lined up and shot.

He is only a college professor.

So please shit bag libturds lecture us.

 

[Scooby]

Is this guy a threat to democracy?

Not anymore. That POS got fired - and desrvedly so.

 

[Randomguy]

I neither know nor care what the rules are, I only know what they did. And yes, I have an opinion regarding what they did.

But you opined that what happened was completely unprecedented. And you said that without knowing what the rules were.

I know you hate the fact that people you disagree with have the right to their opinions, but too bad.

How would you possibly know that?

Whether or not they followed their own rules is not the thesis of my argument, so I have no obligation to present any evidence. I believe they made up the rules as they went.

Again, how would you possibly know that? You don’t know the rules but you know they made up rules as they went. That simply does not follow.

As we both agree, the situation is completed unprecedented so it is perfectly plausible that they didn't have any rules in place to deal with a situation no one could have imagined.

I agree. It is plausible but you did not show that indeed that was the case.

Regardless, I really don't care whether or not that is the case.

Make up your mind. Do you care or know if they had any rules or not?

No, it is a fact. You being in denial does nothing to change that.

The delegates took their marching orders from the small handful of party leaders who told them how to vote.

That is merely your opinion. I have seen no evidence of that.

Like I said.... if we cancelled all general election voting today and appointed Barack, Bill and Nancy to decide the next President, and they chose Kamala, then according to your moronic logic, that is the essence of democracy.

Not appointed. Delegates were elected.

You are humiliating yourself with your denial. You would look infinitely less foolish if you simply said "look, nobody voted for her but I am comfortable with the selection, and I support her over Trump." Instead, you have this peculiar obsession with denying reality.

“look, nobody voted [directly] for her but I am comfortable with the [.]election, and I support her over Trump."

She was elected by delegates.

 

[Scooby]

But you opined that what happened was completely unprecedented.

That's not an opinion, that's a fact. Never before has a candidate won the majority of delegates and withdrawn before the convention.

How would you possibly know that?

Your posts make it clear.

Again, how would you possibly know that?

I didn't say I knew it, I said I believed it. Reading comprehension for the win, my ignorant friend!!

I agree. It is plausible but you did not show that indeed that was the case.

I don't have to because it is not the thesis of my argument. I stated my belief on the matter and don't give a shit whether you agree or disagree. Of course, I can't help but note you keep challenging the statement without actually saying I am wrong....

Make up your mind. Do you care or know if they had any rules or not?

What part of "I neither know nor care" what the rules are did you not understand?

That is merely your opinion. I have seen no evidence of that.

Oh really? So you think 4,000 people just all happened to vote for Kamala on their own? Just 4,000 people in complete lock step without any sort of marching orders from above? Not a single one of them liked Newsom, not a single one of them like Whitmer, not a single one of them liked Buttigieg. All 4,000 went for Kamala completely independent of each other?

With all due respect, anyone who believes that is just a total *****.

She was elected by delegates.

Thank you for agreeing that not a single member of the rank 'n file democrat party voted for her. Or voted for any delegates who would be pledged to her.

So please shit bag libturds lecture us.

Sure he could be
I won't vote for him

 

[Starcastle]

I'm not arguing that Kamala is not a legit candidate or a legal candidate. I just think it takes a lot of hutzpah for dems to keep talking about democracy when they have a candidate who did not get a vote.

Biden was not sidelined by an unexpected stroke or coma. They would have never wanted him to step down if he was ahead in the polls. He was pressured to step down because he was going to lose.

Libtards said that Biden was fine mentally. The corporate media pushed that lie.

F you if you can't handle the truth. This version of Biden is the best Biden ever!

Biden has a photographic memory.

Totally focused and very sharp

He is older that does not mean he is unfit.

They called the idea that Biden is mentally unfit a "Russian misinformation" tactic.
