  1. The desperation is real. This Russia BS right before the Nevada primary is just the latest tactic to try to scare voters. Don’t allow them to, consider all candidates, give them all a good look and then vote for the one you agree with the most. Screw the media.

  2. “Those presidential candidates are low on cash “…let this sentence sink in for a minute. The US is pretending to be the strongest democracy on Earth but it’s in fact an oligarchy. Most Americans don’t know that because they wrongly assume that all the other developed countries have a similar system in place.

    1. Your so right. The money involved in USA politics would be called corruption here (New Zealand) and the politiions who took the money would be in gaol.

    2. @T Mit For foreigners who don’t understand the Electoral College: Yes, it’s controversial now, and it seems “undemocratic” at first glance, but the United States is nothing like your little republics. The Electoral College artificially privileges rural votes over urban ones, so that a vote in say Wyoming (a big empty plain) is worth more than one in New York City. This is by design. Because our country is so huge and has highly concentrated cities plus enormous sparsely populated regions, if you used a pure popular vote then a President could win by ONLY campaigning in New York, L.A., Houston, Chicago, etc., while ignoring two thirds of the States and all the countryside. We’re a federal system. Each state has its own laws, its own culture, its own individual government—and the U.S. Federal Government ignores those differences at great peril, as our Civil War (1861-65) showed. I’m no fan of the Electoral College today because the urban/rural split has transformed into an unfair benefit to a single party, the Republicans, now that they have a lock on most of the rural vote. But it actually made sense in the beginning, as a way to maintain trust in government across a country the WIDTH OF A CONTINENT. Europeans don’t understand how big we are; you have no concept of it.

    3. @ceruchi
      1-In almost all democracies there’s a limit of money a presidential candidate can spend (in the US the sky is the limit)
      2-Only real people can donate to a campaign with a limited amount (in the US big corporations can donate whatever they want in legal briberies)
      3-adds are strictly regulated and every candidate has the exact same time in the medias in order to explain their program (in the US nothing is regulated)
      money is in the heart of American politics

  3. Yes he is – just like he was in 2016 before the DNC shot themselves in the foot and elected Trump. feel the Bern!

    1. @Crimdor no they want trump to win, they are trying to muddy the waters and throw confusion. Most importantly did you see Bernie’s response to it?

    2. gibriel mbowe – no, they want people to become partisan. believing that they’re favoring one candidate over the other is exactly what they want out of you.

  4. Bloomberg is not a wolf in sheeps clothing, hes just a wolf trying to convince the sheep that hes vegetarian! Until the sheep fall asleep at night, and kills them all!!!
    Bernie 2020!!!!! Let’s go America!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 register to vote if you’re not already, and vote bernie for primaries!!!!!

    1. @tha Real Mike Zee thats exactly right! People need to realize theres two different kinds of “communists” and they need to remember we all ready have a couple in place right now. It’s the big pharmaceutical companies are screwing with everything.

  5. The DNC is run by big corporate donors and Wall Street. That is why the DNC is rigging the primaries against Bernie. The DNC is corrupt.

    1. NOOOOOOO people it’s Putin and Thrump causing the havoc. Get a freaking clue! Stop being against one another Democrats!!!!!!!! Don Thrump does enough of that crap!!!

    2. well then why is Bernie running as a Democrat? If he doesn’t want to taint himself with all that corruption he should have run as an independent instead of co-opting the party for his own personal gain

  6. It’s not unfair that the other candidates don’t have the money to spend. They don’t have the backers like Bernie. And they aren’t buying their way in like Bloomberg, which is even worse than not having the backers. #bernie2020

    1. @Vote him Out Ohhhh you want me to read from CNN…. the most trusted name in news…..They wanted Michael Avenatti to run for President and you want me to trust them…..WOW….wake up Avenatti is in jail for extortion dummy!!!!

    2. @Joel Vance Not at all….Hillary paid for it and and whoever said in this tread that it wasn’t Russian is a fool….it was Russian disinformation…. even the N.Y. Times admitted that…..We now know it’s ok for Hillary to collude and Adam Schiff also…..you all are hypocrites…..weak and pathetic ones.

    1. 1ronin -Some not so secret ones. You just wont hear about them on MSM. Neolibs and MSM are losing power. They are really worried. They should be. We are engaged in a hostile takeover of the DNC, on behalf of the American Working Class.

    2. Sanders has the GOP at Trumps suggestion to support Sanders. Sanders may win and then Trump will eat Sanders lunch, another get another 4 years, if he loses New York is waiting. What happened to the investigation into the Bidens, Trump needed to get rid of that because JB is strong and Sanders is a weak candidate. Trump will eat him for lunch, and who knows what he has promised Sanders. I don’t hear anything about The Biden’s anymore, Trump knows he had to stop VP Biden, he did not want to debate a strong man, so Sanders is the pick. Sanders doesn’t have but two things that he has preached forever, nothing new. Look it up…

  7. Bernie never lost his base. In fact his base is larger then ever! Look how they are trying to stop him! The more they go after Bernie the stronger he gets!

    1. @Vega Nona There is a name for a person that goes on Youtube correcting people’s grammar. I forget what it is. Help me out.

    2. @Vega Nona Your grammar better be spot on from this day forward. I’ll be there to pounce and ridicule you. I’ve copied your post and can’t wait to paste it with satisfaction. I love people that punch down. Especially when you make them eat their words.

    3. @Francis Fulloffrenchpeople Russia did not cause the financial collapse of 2008 forcing 10 million homes to be foreclosed on. Russia did not jack up the price of medications to 10 times that of other countries. Russia did not lock up people in a private prison system for the sole reason of being poor. Russia did not inflate the cost of education so anyone who has one can’t pursue the American dream (nightmare). Russia did not invade other countries with U.S. tax dollars for the sole purpose of stealing their oil. Russia did not bail out Wall St., Big Pharma, The Auto Industry, Big Oil, The Farming Industry, and the MIC while the working class paid for it. You should be afraid of your own establishment governments rather than some country that did (nothing) to the USA. America just spent $20 Trillion tax payer dollars fighting an enemy that has no planes, missiles, or ships to actually attack America. Wake up red scare pony.

    4. Bernie is like the hive In the Movie the day the earth stood still . the more they bomb bernie the bigger and more dangerous he gets

    1. Tyler V.G. Dude, Mathews never say he prefer Trump over Bernie, he is just saying that establishment dems may have no choice but to wait at least 4 years.That’s not endorsing Trump. You are lying by adverb.

    2. @unwishfulthink Im sure anyone else watching thst would agree with me.
      He was clearly saying that maybe people would prefer trump for another 4 years then getva Democrat that we like after that.
      How does that billionaire boot taste that you keep licking.
      Look up Matthews on twitter right now, even some of his colleagues are denouncing him

    1. @Morty Sanchez Let’s try to talk a bit more more realistically. Denmark has 5 million ppl (Boston)
      Sweden has 10 million (LA), you’re comparing USA (327 million) with countries that are no bigger than ONE of our cities.

    1. @C S Who honeymooned in Russia? Bernie! Who admires Venezuela? Bernie Who admires Cuba’s Communist government? Bernie! Who’s Putin’s choice in 2020? Comrade Bernie……..Putin & Bernie….comrades forever.

    1. @Deborah Flagg Donny boy started it! (Name-calling) But I agree Benie makes them all afraid if losing their cush stituations created over the past 70 years. It’s political pollution & it’s time we cleaned it up.

    2. @Art In The Dark Only major ( after primaries) candidates get secret service protection within 120 days of a general election, unless they are receiving a load of death threats.

    1. Feel like I am in a time machine…..THE RUSSIANS ARE COMING ..THE RUSSIANS ARE COMING. Remember the spread of communism in se asia …vietnam…..we have to stop it before it gets over here…..terrorism….we have to stop it over there……hard to believe people fall for this old gag over and over.

    2. @K J Rather pay for war, Wall St, Big Pharma, Auto Industry, Industrial Farming, and Bank bailouts? Socialism works just fine for them.

    3. @Anthony Egidio The Mueller report was garbage you saw that didn’t you? “Not in my purview” LOL. The guy didn’t even know what was in his own report. LOL he was worse than Wilbur Ross.

    4. @tstandri The US spent $60 Trillion on Wall St, Big Pharma, Industrial Farm, Auto Industry, Boeing, MIC, and Big Oil bailouts and subsidies. Socialism seams to be working great for them.

  8. MSM talking points are getting old: “not electable” “ceiling” “bernie bros” “not a democrat” “polarizer”…Try harder guys…

    1. Fox only has the Dems to bash…No Repub dares the challenge Trump for the nomination.
      He’s all they got.
      Now we need a plan.

    1. @jeck jeckoff! BREADLINE BERNIE is to old to get on his knees, he’ll have to get in the missionary position like you. BERNIE & PUTIN……2020

  9. The corporate shill: “It’s not like we’re getting together for backroom meetings to figure out how to defeat Bernie”.
    Its exactly what you snakes are doing.
