Bill De Blasio Says Biden Better Than Trump But Lacks Vision For Change | Morning Joe | MSNBC
Yeah, Bernie is extreme because he wants to make the life of the average american much better. Smfh.
@Margaret Nicol i dont know. Why should he? What is the point youre getting at? That its expensive? So. Each branch can order a variation instead of a separate plane altogether. Wasnt that the point? What is your point?
It took me all of 30 seconds to find this https://www.forbes.com/sites/lorenthompson/2019/10/29/pentagon-and-lockheed-martin-agree-to-big-cost-reduction-on-f-35-fighters/
@Raptango_NA Fighter jets are out. Drones are in.
—- > I don’t think Biden is better than Trump. Trump and BIden both sold out to wall-street and corporate interests. I suspect Biden’s endorsements came from candidates and government officials with the same billionaire donors that are backing him. Biden is also accepting money from Mike Bloomberg. If he manages to win the presidency, he won’t be able to sign a piece of legislation without getting permission from Bloomberg and his 60 other billionaire donors. That’s who he is working for now.

—-> Trump and Bloomberg both buy politicians.
Trump’s been paying politicians for years. Now, he’s playing the voters

Biden taking Bloomberg’s money should tell you what kind of president he would be. Vote Bernie Sanders.

Look at how Biden treats these veterans – then vote for Bernie. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wZQO0KeMiRU&t=2s
“There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that ‘my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.”
― Issac Asimov
@Jeffrey Hagelin I’m part of the American public. Ironically, it’s your foolish opinions about wealth in this country that doesn’t appeal to the average American or accurately illustrate their lives.
And you ARE ignorant and stupid, only you’re too dumb to realize it. Evidenced by your reliance on ad hominems instead of proving or disproving points. And apparently I’m not the only one who’s identified your lack of grasp.
@Jeffrey Hagelin I’m still waiting for you to actually address some of the points you made that have been clearly disproven; the fact that the Koch brothers think tank projected the savings of Bernie’s healthcare plan, not just Bernie himself. Are you going to dispute this with facts, admit you are wrong, or continue to call me and others juvenile names to demonstrate your inability to actually defend your statements? If I was a betting man, I’d say the latter.
And here’s a link about some economists’ take on Medicare for all.

So. . .time to man up or shut up; accept your error, and maybe apologize to the people you’re claiming are liars in this thread about the savings from Medicare for all being his own partisan estimations.
Oh Joe… Your bias is painfully obvious.
De Blasio has his own take that Joe doesn’t want to hear 🤪
MSNBC’s bias is showing. I am disappointed in Joe and his show’s shills for a corporate media supporting a corporate gov’t. Bill was strong and wouldn’t let himself be bamboozled by quick talking jerks.
Joe needs to calm down. His bias is showing. Probably scared about having to pay higher taxes.
@Zorak0515 yup. It’s called setting us up for failure, whether he would win the presidency or not.
Joe is expressing his opinion. That’s what this show is. It’s not about straight news reporting. It’s an opinion show.
Too bad MSNBC is COLLAPSING!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E1LcDyLMy1c
Centrism represents mediocracy. Centrism represents halfway in the wrong direction.
When Trump beats the Democrat it will be because Sulking cry baby Sanders’ supporters stayed home and let him win… remember that.
@Ancel Rick Yeah Biden doesn’t need to earn votes you’re just supposed to vote for him because *D.*
@MoppyPuppy Yup. #dumpTrump

I can see where Joe S is coming from. He just wants things to go back to normal. But the thing is, things *cannot* go back to normal. They can *never* go back to normal after Trump. Things have seriously *got* to change. Corporate Money in politics has got to end. Voter rights have got to be secured. Gerrymandering has got to end. The stranglehold of the Electoral College has got to end. The safeguards against illegal actions of a corrupt President have got to be strengthened.
If there is one positive to take from the Trump Presidency, it’s the hope that it has slapped the complacency off of America’s face. Because if a dumb-as-SH#, know-nothing political opportunist like Donald F#ng Trump can win the White House and do this much damage in his first term, imagine the devastation of a true Machiavellian genius, and genuinely intelligent criminal mastermind could do.
@n. p. Fucc normalcy we need Change. Status Quo Joe , Hillary 2.0 with Dementia, or what ever you want to call him as the nominee is a Trump landslide victory.
That’s the thing going back to normal whatever that means will inevitably lead to same bs that got trump elected. it’s clear the institutions the parties have failed to protect democracy and this can easily slide into a phony republic like in Russia if the course isn’t corrected soon
Joe, stop interrupting Mika. It’s very overbearing male who thinks women are secondary. Also, DeBlasio is correct.
Mika has shown that she is very capable of reining in the “boys” on the set, when she chooses to. Part of the dynamic of the show is their bickering, Joe the bombastic ex-politician pundit, Willie asks questions that advance the topics and Mika is the matriarch of the set, keeping everyone in line when needed, while also showing the example of a powerful and knowledgeable woman who has been raised in the political theater. None of the men on that set show contempt for women, but they do from time to time show where there is room for improvement.
I think the same, I don’t like men interrupting women like that but then again, i didn’t marry him, she did and if she is cool with that ….i am out, just don’t interrupt me or the romance is over 🙂
I agree-ish.. but i think stage descriptions have her at co-host… some interruptions may be pushing to later segments for time. If he used 40 extra seconds….
I always hated the way she just sat there a look at him as if doesn’t have a voice. When she tries to say something he doesn’t acknowledge that she is or can speak. I hate to watch that subdue woman on the show. They have other women on the show who gets to voice their opinion, but not her. The only time that she gets to speak, is when he is not on the show. Speak up Mika!!
Too bad MSNBC is COLLAPSING!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E1LcDyLMy1c
Even MSNBCannibals are soon expecting Biden to come out on stage wearing his underwear over his pants
Joe is at it again. Talk, talk, talk. Let the guest speak, dash it.
What Joe doesn’t seem to understand is it is exactly that “normalcy” that caused Trump to win in the first place. That “normalcy” suppressed the progressive left and enraged the progressive right. There are enough progressives engaged in the Sander’s movement that are happy enough to either switch sides or stay at home to put pressure on the Democratic Establishment to stop selling out the working class.
You heard it here Biden’s campaign slogan is let’s wish for a return to the conditions that allowed Trump to rise through our political and social system !
Go Bernie 2020 !!!
Joe Biden is like an old man fulfilling his last wishlist of running for presidency… Then lose.
DeBlasio did well against Joe’s talking points.
LISTEN UP JOE . IT AIN`T THE GUN IT`S THE DESPAIR AND HOPELESSNESS CAUSED BY THE RICH CAPITALIST LIKE YOU.
I surrender…29 candidates, and we end up with Biden, so after 4 years of attempting to return to the 50’s, we are going to leap forward to 12 years ago, and call it what, a return to progress, literally WTF.
Joe loves to hear himself talk but rarely lets somebody else speak.
Gosh, Joe is biased. He kept on inappropriately cutting his guest.
Remedios Santos Because he had a valid point. Why had the black community not supported him in two election cycles and why had he not made it his business to get that make or break vote!
Oh there is no change coming with Biden. Back to square one!🤦♂️
MSNBC backs Biden 👍🏿 but Bernie got the Energy and vision for a NEW DAWN. It’s not over yet.
