According to Bernie, Trump is qualified but Hillary and Obama aren't

[geek tragedy]

He cited four things that determine if someone is qualified to be President.

http://www.mediaite.com/tv/sanders-hits-back-at-hillary-by-listing-reasons-shes-not-qualified-to-be-president/

1. Have a Super PAC

Trump passes this part of the Bernie test, Clinton and Obama both fail

2. Supported Panama trade deal

Trump passes, Clinton half-fails (opposed in Congress, implemented under Obama), Obama fails

3. Supports US trade policies

Trump passes, Clinton fails, Obama fails

4. Didn't vote for Iraq war.

Trump and Obama pass, Clinton fails.

So, under the Bernie test, Trump is more qualified than both Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama.

Great 'Democrat.'

1. Just shows the sad state our political system is in.

Its a corrupting system.

[geek tragedy]

5. No, it shows how dumb his comments are.

No one smarter than a box of rocks thinks Trump is more qualified than Obama and Clinton.

2. Niiiiice!

Good luck with that Bernie.

3. Would you like some beer and mustard with your pretzel, buddy?

4. 55,000 + posts and haven't

said a thing that made sense in any of them. Congrats.

6. I honestly don't expect much from Bernie anymore.

He is not what I thought he was.

[Dem2]

7. Unfortunate choice of words on his part

It has been reported than his staff reacted to the anonymous report of Jeff Zeleny on CNN Tues evening. I would say "overreacted". I guarantee this language will be toned down after tonight's fiasco.

[geek tragedy]

8. I dunno. He seems to be determined to be as negative as possible

Taking after the Don.

9. According to Hillary she and John McCain are ready for that 3 AM phone call, Obama isn't.

Shows how little she knows.

10. Good point, Hillary really sucks if Trump recognizes these issues and she doesn't. nt

[geek tragedy]

13. So you voting trump if Hillary is the nominee? nt

[Joob]

16. No, I don't fall in line because I agree with "some issues"

I'll look to third parties though,the Democratic Party won't hold my Values at that point, that's for sure.

11. You just qualified

To be on my ignore list!

Well Trump fails Iraq since he was for it at the start, although it was lukewarm in passing he never got a follow up until after the fact.
Trump floundered a bit on deal too I thought.

Tump fired back: “Excuse me, we will either renegotiate it or we will break it. Because, you know, every agreement has an end.”

Pelley said Trump can’t just break the law.

“Excuse me, every agreement has an end. Every agreement has to be fair,” Trump reiterated. “Every agreement has a defraud clause. We’re being defrauded by all these countries.”

Pelley told Trump that “free trade” is the “plank” of the Republican Party.

“Scott, we need fair trade. Not free trade,” Trump clarified. “We need fair trade. It’s got to be fair.”

Also Trump has a pack but perhaps it was not his choice, since they can support any one they want. http://www.nytimes.com/politics/first-draft/2016/04/06/super-pac-emerges-to-support-donald-trump-who-criticizes-such-groups/

Just say'n I don't think he does, also Bernie did say Trump was possibly a sociopath at best based on the definition so I think that would also be a non-starter.

14. Bernie also said he wouldn't run a negative campaign with personal attacks.

Bernie lied.

[northernsouthern]

20. Really?

I posted links, backed up all I said and you just reply with Bernie lied? Give me some substance, back that statement up! Let's get all political up in this forum. We need to raise our level of discussion to the sky. So high the gods of Olympus will feel the need to join in.

Also what does

Bernie lied

have to do with the thread?

Edit: Actually... peace, I am out of this thread, no need to go down the Rabbit Hole more than I have.

15. Wow

So stupid.

[ThePhilosopher04]

17. I assume you were/are for the Iraq War? Super Pacs? Panama Trade Deal? US Trade policies?

[Skwmom]

19. Remind us what Bill Clinton said about the "awful legacy of the last eight years" and the

various comments and sly innuendos about Obama that occur now and then because Camp Clinton can't hold it in. The anger over Obama beating Clinton, the so called "qualified" constantly bubbles up. While Bernie will disagree with Obama he's never made such an inference.
