For Democrats not named Bernie Sanders, the stakes could not have been higher at the South Carolina debate on Tuesday night.
Bernie has either won or maybe won (thanks Iowa) each of the first three states. He will virtually clinch the nomination if he wins South Carolina on Saturday and carries that momentum into Super Tuesday.
The other candidates like Pete Buttigieg or Joe Biden should have focused on taking down Bernie. Instead, the debate spiraled into chaos, as the moderators lost control. The candidates exceeded their speaking time, talking over each other, and often veering off-topic.
That isn’t to say there weren’t any attacks on Sanders, as he was called out for his costly and unrealistic Medicare-for-All proposal and his commitment to democratic socialism. But these attacks were likely lost in the broader chaos and uncertainty of the night.
Elizabeth Warren’s favorite part of the night was the fact Michael Bloomberg participated again. Instead of attacking Bernie, whose voters she should be aiming for, Warren continues to score easy hits on Bloomberg, who slipped up and almost said he “bought” the House for Democrats in 2018.
We’ll see whether or not this debate will impact voters in South Carolina on Saturday, which may be the last day that other candidates have to stop Sanders. It is crucial for Biden's campaign that he win South Carolina with a comfortable margin, as it will be the last opportunity to breathe hope into the bellies of the “establishment” Democrats, whom he’ll need to show up in large numbers on Super Tuesday if he is to stop a socialist from clinching the nomination.
Quite a show, isn’t it? Regardless of who wins, they will have to get by President Trump in November to take the White House. Good luck!
It’s such a pity that the other candidates are too scared to criticize Bernie’s past comments about the brutal murderer and dictator Fidel Castro. Their silence on the issue was deafening; either they are conceding to the ideology or they are too scared to alienate his radical supporters. I suspect it’s a combination of both. After all, there is no “moderate” Democrat running for President.
But what exactly makes Sanders’ past comments so terrible? According to Fox News, Sanders argues, “We're very opposed to the authoritarian nature of Cuba but you know, it’s unfair to simply say everything is bad. You know? When Fidel Castro came into office, you know what he did? He had a massive literacy program. Is that a bad thing? Even though Fidel Castro did it?”
No, Bernie, we don’t know. These comments are a great disservice to the tens of thousands of people Castro’s regime killed. Moreover, weren’t these programs just a form of youth indoctrination?
Unlike Bernie, President Trump has been tough on Cuba exerting a “maximum pressure” policy to rid the world of Cuba's communist regime.
In November, voters may have the chance to decide between Bernie and his love for dictators or President Trump and his love for freedom.
We are super excited for CPAC, which runs this Wednesday through Saturday at the Gaylord National Resort and Convention Center in Maryland. CPAC brings together many of the biggest names in conservative politics, including President Trump, Vice President Pence, Sen. Ted Cruz, Rep. Jim Jordan, Mark Meadows, Andy Biggs, the Great One Mark Levin and many other courageous conservative voices.
Hopefully, many of you get the chance to attend and learn from this incredible collection of speakers. Tweet us your favorite CPAC moment @TPPatriots.
Let’s end with a few things we wish people would stop doing that drive us crazy.
- Comparing President Trump and Bernie. One is revitalizing our economy and keeping America safe, while the other wants to completely transform our society, raise taxes, and make everyone dependent on the government. Enough said.
- Ignoring the primaries because November is so far away. You need to go vote in your state's primary and support conservative candidates who believe in the Constitution and limited government.
- Being pessimistic about America. We live in the greatest country in the world, and that is not going to change anytime soon!
Join us today, and pledge to support our President and help him keep fighting for all Americans!
The views are polar opposite – one supports American farmers, the other belittles them. Which will you choose?
