If you think Sanders supporters are nasty

...then it is interesting to imagine what would happen if there were no other focus than Trump at which to direct it.

1. We're better than that

As Elijah Cummings would say "We're better than this". Part of what the left is running on is to restore is civility.

2. As the saying goes, nice guys finish last.

Running on the civility card will not help us achieve our goals. The Rethugs have mastered the art of running rings around the Democrats because they can convince way too many people to vote against their own self interest.

3. If you really believe that

please help me understand how you support Joe Biden. He is the nicest nominee in our group of fine nominees.

[avebury]

4. I support Joe because he is competent and he can

undue a lot of the damage Trump has caused internationally. He is the polar opposite of Trump. I would prefer not to reach across the isle because McConnell, if left in office, would stonewall a Democratic President for the entire term of office. Instead I would prefer to see Joe kill them with kindness. Perception is everything and giving the appearance of playing nice can end up making the Rethugs look like fools and incompetent. Nancy Pelosi uses that tactic all the time - successfully.

It is all about learning how to play the came better then your opponent. The Rethugs have been masterful at it to the utter disbelief of rational people.

5. Because Sanders numbers vs Trump in swing states suck while Biden does the best. We're being

... warned by data RIGHT NOW that Sanders swing state numbers vs Trump are horrible

6. I wont argue with YOUR statement, but it had nothing to do with the question.

7. Wake me when they start to focus on Trump...
