politics Elizabeth Warren drops out of Presidential race

[Jordan Miller]

Hey Exhale, I've always seen this forum to be a place that reaches beyond the walls of music. I created a few new forums, including this one: Politics and global news.

2020 is shaping up to be a monumental year. I think it's important we flex our opinions not just around our tastes in music, but our views as well. This is a safe space to share your beliefs.

Senator Elizabeth Warren dropped out of the Presidential race, The NY Times reports. 

Quote

Addressing supporters and the press in front of her house in Cambridge, Ms. Warren said that, from the start, she had been told there were only two true lanes in the 2020 contest: a liberal one dominated by Mr. Sanders, 78, and a moderate one led by Mr. Biden, 77.

“I thought that wasn’t right,” Ms. Warren said, “But evidently I was wrong.”

I was and am a big Buttigieg fan, but he's thrown his support behind Biden. I like Sanders, too. 

Btw here's a pic of me meeting Mayor Pete. Who are you guys interested in?

I want to torment you guys. 

Lol no for real though, I am curious to see if Exhalers would like to expand their thoughts beyond the realm of music. Maybe no one will care or is here for that. Guess we'll see. I for one am curious to hear what you guys also think about other things besides music and Britney. Exhalers feel like very outspoken people

This will turn into an anti-conservative trash fest like everywhere else.

omg Pete is the WORST. Textbook definition of a b****y gay. So glad he dropped out. Same with nitwit warren.

bernie will win unless the dnc and media keep sabotaging him. I like Bernie he’s actually a good person, but idk how realistic his promises are. But oh well presidents rarely do good **** anyway, so I’d rather have a kind ineffective leader than an evil one like joe Biden. 

biden will NEVER be president. Y’all know he’s a **** right? Y’all know he has legit dementia? Gets worse by the day

kinda feels like we’re gonna get four more years of trump

I disagree. This will NOT turn into the dumpster fire like TMZ's comments. 

I think it could enhance the community no?

 your description of Buttigieg. I did not get that impression at all.

My dad is Team Bernie. My dad was a US history teacher and is obsessed with politics. Literally immersed into that realm of news like I am with music. 

Did you just call Biden a ****

You must not use many non mainstream news sources if you haven’t heard about Biden’s love for little girls. There’s a literal compilation of videos of him smelling little girls hair from behind while taking pics with their families. No consent nothing. He does it for his own pleasure. children. Sorry that’s the pathology of a *********.

I’m sure he was friends w Epstein. To be fair so was trump.

If Joe Biden, that disgusting ********* and kiddie-fondler, becomes president... I swear to god.  Obviously not American, but if I were I would vote for Bernie. People are so misinformed and think he's some bolshevik communist, when that couldn't be further from the truth. Americans (sorry for generalising) hear the word 'socialism' and their brains turn off.  The last time I went to the doctor I had to pay 8 euros.

Are your hospitals government owned?  I don't know much about health systems abroad.

There no way Biden will win. Zero chance. Unless the powers that be really pull some stunts. It’s really the DNC that wants to stop Bernie. I think most Americans like him as a person. But yes socialism does scare people.

i was one of the people afraid Bernie was a communist last election, but he’s not! It would be amazing to have free or affordable health care, but I’ve heard that can make it difficult to actually get to see a doctor bc then everyone’s going in to The docs to get something check out. Idk. It’s never gonna be perfect for everybody.

i like Bernie bc he’s not afraid to say f u to the establishment. Which is also why people liked trump.

Well, I was going to comment something relevant in this thread, but since all the comments are the same dumpster fire that all other politics comment sections are...

I honestly couldn't tell you. The main hospital in my city is technically a "PLC" which stands for "Private Limited Company", but I think it's owned by the municipality. I think it depends on the hospital. There's privately owned clinics whose services cost quite a bit (still nothing astronomical; I paid like 25 euros for a derm consultation), but you don't have to wait in line for that long. There's hospitals that are technically owned by the country and then there's ones that are owned by their respective municipalities.

Thanks for breaking that down - I do not trust our country to pay privately owned hospitals enough to stay open, nor do I trust our country to own our hospitals.

I must admit I have been so engulfed in music news that I haven't spent enough time reading about what's going on in the world lately. I'd like to change that and would love for Exhalers to join me in that.

I am not sure what to think about the claims you just made against Biden. I need to do some research

@1:40 is especially telling. Her mom knew what was up and was clearly uncomfortable.
