“Despite what’s being posted here”? Honestly, I fear for the children of tomorrow when the Republicans of today have reading comprehension like yours. Because I’m a Democrat - a real one, not a MoDeRaTe - and I’m the one who has twice posted “Nader, Nader, Sanders/Stein.” You know why? Because I understand that a spoiler doesn’t need to be huge in order to destroy progress. Too many people are way too stupid and will vote for Literally Any Corpse (R). To prevent fascism, to prevent the destruction of life as we know it, to prevent wars, we can’t afford to peel off votes for what is an obvious Kanye-for-President level BS gambit from the GOP.
Your hyperbole is getting tiresome. Time to take a chill pill and work toward achievable solutions rather than name calling, which is off-putting to those moderates and independents who the Dems need. I mean, you slam Dems because you think they aren’t true Dems or Dem enough. Keep it up though if you want people to vote 3rd party.
Voting no labels is voting for trump. Stop treating posters like fools.
They’re not dumb like they’re trying to pretend. They just have to troll that hard to try to hide their love for the GOP and all their sick policies.
Yes, yes, anyone who expresses a concern is a traitor.
I mean, why express concern when we are so fortunate to have a likely rematch of the two greatest presidential candidates in American history?
Whine and cry to all the voters that can't be bothered to vote in a primary. The solution is not billionaires coming in to try to manipulate things to their liking with third party stunt.
The solution certainly isn't hoping either party, one of them entirely lost to extremists and the other making alarming concessions to its own extremists, suddenly decides to correct its course and actually represent more moderate views. Many people are politically homeless. Deal with that instead of trying to browbeat anyone who dares question your Revolution. If Democrats need to hold onto my vote then return to moderate policies.
Vote for trump or vote for no labels. The effect is the same.
Maybe No Labels can ultimately throw its weight behind Democrats if Democrats can re-commit to being sensible rather than Revolutionary? Because if you keep doing what you're doing and simply insulting anyone who disagrees with you, you will also be voting for Trump because too many moderates can't endorse some of your policies.
No labels would only throw it's little weight to a Dem if that would help trump. What are you not understanding about no labels?
There is a real need for representation for moderates. No Labels has explanations other than dividing the vote.
Look how dogmatic you are... are you really prepared to work with people who want to consider things more carefully?
Narrator: it is a bunch of right wingers, funded by right wing billionaires, pretending to be moderate.
Let's not fall for it.
Yes, we can consider things more carefully, and in considering "no labels" - it is sham meant to split votes away from the Democrats in order to secure right wing fascism, so just own it for what it is.
No Labels has been around for a while. It looks to consist of a mix of disaffected DLC Democrats who have banded together with some Never Trumpers more recently. If you do not like the billionaires you assert without evidence are funding No Labels, then work at the grass roots level to find another candidate to replace Biden at the top of the ticket. The No Labels folks have agreed to go away if that happens.
Did you just show up to this long thread? There’s a ton of evidence throughout it and the links in it.
Since you apparently have spent time reviewing this thread, please provide one link with evidence showing that billionaires are behind No Labels and trying to elect Trump. Thanks in advance.
Plus, Crow, notwithstanding that he is apparently personal friends with a Supreme Court Justice appointed by a Republican, has made it clear that he is looking for a third party candidate not to reelect Trump:
In a statement to The New Republic, Crow said he supports No Labels because he believes that both parties have become too extreme. “America is in trouble if we keep going down the path of letting the two extremes dictate our politics,” Crow said in the statement. “I support No Labels because our government should be about what’s best for America, not what’s best for either political party. That’s also why I’ve supported candidates from both sides of the aisle who are willing to engage in civil discussions to move our country forward.”
The $130,000 is to a No Labels affiliated group that is disclosing its donors, but the actual No Labels is not and has hundreds of millions in dark money.
I have the list of donors and I've met with Nancy Jacobson. There are SEVERAL Trump donors on the list. Not just Crow. You cannot convince me that they would donate for any reason other than to get Trump elected. If it was just Crow, I would believe the story, but it isn't.
Isn't it possible that these so-called Trump donors have broken with him due to 1/6, multiple impeachments, his countless statements that have offended people, etc., and are looking for another candidate?
Yes, of course this is possible. The fact that No labels has no candidate in the race at this point makes all of this conversation completely speculative. If No Labels put forth a well known candidate that has appeal to both moderate R & D voters, they'd have a chance to build momentum quickly but time is running out for that if it hasn't already. The bottom line- a majority of both R and D voters would like an alternative to Trump and Biden more so than in any election in modern history so the opportunity for a successful 3rd party candidate is in place more so than ever before. Without an announced candidate in place, we can only speculate on the intent of No Labels donors and whether or not their potential candidate would pull more votes from Trump or Biden.
it is really not difficult to figure this out. Trump has a snowball's chance in hell without shenanigans so shenanigans is what we will get. No labels will intend to pull votes from Biden.
I wish Trump had a snowballs chance in hell but polling data strongly suggests otherwise and we're in 2016 pre-election lala land if seriously thinking that is the case. No way to know how a strong 3rd party candidate would influence the race until there actually is a strong 3rd party candidate. As of now with the presumed choice being Trump or Biden, it's a toss up.
Totally disagree. They one hundred percent will choose the candidate they think will best influence the race for trump. They have zero intention of trying to win anything other than trump in the white house.
What is your evidence?
History. Nader, Nader, Sanders/Stein. And I guess if you want to get real in the weeds, Perot. Without Perot Clinton wouldn’t have won.

I mostly agree with you, except it’s a myth that Perot won the election for Clinton. Perot had 20% of the vote which was split equally between people who would have voted for Bush and people who would have voted for Clinton had he not been on the ballot. It’s actually a myth, started by Republicans who couldn’t believe they lost after twelve years, to blame the victory Clinton would have had without Perot on Perot.

No one thought that Donald Trump could win either but he did once. Trump was covered on the entertainment pages well into the 2016 campaign by a respected news organization. Why exactly do you think it is impossible for No Labels to win? Especially since other posters are convinced that they have hundreds of millions in the bank, which would help getting on the ballot and in communications, etc.
Why dot you explain where these electoral college votes are going to materialize? Let's see that list.
You are missing the point. At this time during the 2016 cycle, (Oct. 2015), no one thought that Trump had a snowball's chance yet he won comfortably. Pollster Kellyann Conway was mocked even a week or so before the election when she explained Trump's numerous paths to victory. It is possible to change the electoral map.
You are missing the point. Do your best Kellyann and explain the no labels "path to victory".

I have not seen any polling. Keep in mind that we are more than a year out from the election. There are serious people from both major political parties attached to No Labels. If the major parties insist on running Biden and Trump, there will be a viable alternative.

The Republican and Democratic parties don't favor democracy. They favor staying in power and preservation of power is behind everything they do. No one is suggesting that Biden is a "great" candidate. He is far from it obviously but still a much better option than Trump. Let's stop running from truths.

Because I’m a Democrat - a real one, not a MoDeRaTe - and I’m the one who has twice posted “Nader, Nader, Sanders/Stein.” You know why? Because I understand that a spoiler doesn’t need to be huge in order to destroy progress. Too many people are way too stupid and will vote for Literally Any Corpse (R). To prevent fascism, to prevent the destruction of life as we know it, to prevent wars, we can’t afford to peel off votes for what is an obvious Kanye-for-President level BS gambit from the GOP.
Your hyperbole is getting tiresome. Time to take a chill pill and work toward achievable solutions rather than name calling, which is off-putting to those moderates and independents who the Dems need. I mean, you slam Dems because you think they aren’t true Dems or Dem enough. Keep it up though if you want people to vote 3rd party.
Voting no labels is voting for trump. Stop treating posters like fools.
They’re not dumb like they’re trying to pretend. They just have to troll that hard to try to hide their love for the GOP and all their sick policies.
Yes, yes, anyone who expresses a concern is a traitor.
I mean, why express concern when we are so fortunate to have a likely rematch of the two greatest presidential candidates in American history?
Whine and cry to all the voters that can't be bothered to vote in a primary. The solution is not billionaires coming in to try to manipulate things to their liking with third party stunt.
The solution certainly isn't hoping either party, one of them entirely lost to extremists and the other making alarming concessions to its own extremists, suddenly decides to correct its course and actually represent more moderate views. Many people are politically homeless. Deal with that instead of trying to browbeat anyone who dares question your Revolution. If Democrats need to hold onto my vote then return to moderate policies.
Vote for trump or vote for no labels. The effect is the same.
Maybe No Labels can ultimately throw its weight behind Democrats if Democrats can re-commit to being sensible rather than Revolutionary? Because if you keep doing what you're doing and simply insulting anyone who disagrees with you, you will also be voting for Trump because too many moderates can't endorse some of your policies.
No labels would only throw it's little weight to a Dem if that would help trump. What are you not understanding about no labels?
There is a real need for representation for moderates. No Labels has explanations other than dividing the vote.
Look how dogmatic you are... are you really prepared to work with people who want to consider things more carefully?
Narrator: it is a bunch of right wingers, funded by right wing billionaires, pretending to be moderate.
Let's not fall for it.
Yes, we can consider things more carefully, and in considering "no labels" - it is sham meant to split votes away from the Democrats in order to secure right wing fascism, so just own it for what it is.
No Labels has been around for a while. It looks to consist of a mix of disaffected DLC Democrats who have banded together with some Never Trumpers more recently. If you do not like the billionaires you assert without evidence are funding No Labels, then work at the grass roots level to find another candidate to replace Biden at the top of the ticket. The No Labels folks have agreed to go away if that happens.
Did you just show up to this long thread? There’s a ton of evidence throughout it and the links in it.
Since you apparently have spent time reviewing this thread, please provide one link with evidence showing that billionaires are behind No Labels and trying to elect Trump. Thanks in advance.
Plus, Crow, notwithstanding that he is apparently personal friends with a Supreme Court Justice appointed by a Republican, has made it clear that he is looking for a third party candidate not to reelect Trump:
In a statement to The New Republic, Crow said he supports No Labels because he believes that both parties have become too extreme. “America is in trouble if we keep going down the path of letting the two extremes dictate our politics,” Crow said in the statement. “I support No Labels because our government should be about what’s best for America, not what’s best for either political party. That’s also why I’ve supported candidates from both sides of the aisle who are willing to engage in civil discussions to move our country forward.”
The $130,000 is to a No Labels affiliated group that is disclosing its donors, but the actual No Labels is not and has hundreds of millions in dark money.
I have the list of donors and I've met with Nancy Jacobson. There are SEVERAL Trump donors on the list. Not just Crow. You cannot convince me that they would donate for any reason other than to get Trump elected. If it was just Crow, I would believe the story, but it isn't.
Isn't it possible that these so-called Trump donors have broken with him due to 1/6, multiple impeachments, his countless statements that have offended people, etc., and are looking for another candidate?
Yes, of course this is possible. The fact that No labels has no candidate in the race at this point makes all of this conversation completely speculative. If No Labels put forth a well known candidate that has appeal to both moderate R & D voters, they'd have a chance to build momentum quickly but time is running out for that if it hasn't already. The bottom line- a majority of both R and D voters would like an alternative to Trump and Biden more so than in any election in modern history so the opportunity for a successful 3rd party candidate is in place more so than ever before. Without an announced candidate in place, we can only speculate on the intent of No Labels donors and whether or not their potential candidate would pull more votes from Trump or Biden.
it is really not difficult to figure this out. Trump has a snowball's chance in hell without shenanigans so shenanigans is what we will get. No labels will intend to pull votes from Biden.
I wish Trump had a snowballs chance in hell but polling data strongly suggests otherwise and we're in 2016 pre-election lala land if seriously thinking that is the case. No way to know how a strong 3rd party candidate would influence the race until there actually is a strong 3rd party candidate. As of now with the presumed choice being Trump or Biden, it's a toss up.
Totally disagree. They one hundred percent will choose the candidate they think will best influence the race for trump. They have zero intention of trying to win anything other than trump in the white house.
What is your evidence?
History. Nader, Nader, Sanders/Stein. And I guess if you want to get real in the weeds, Perot. Without Perot Clinton wouldn’t have won.
I can’t tell if you faux hopeful people are really this dumb or if you’re just Republicans fully committed to getting a fascist dictatorship installed.
Just kidding. You’re obviously Republicans.
I was asking for evidence backing up the above statement as well as the additional assertion. None was provided.
The Democratic Party should favor democracy. If Biden is such a great candidate, he would still prevail regardless of the number of alternatives. Presently he is running unopposed in the primaries despite historically low favorability ratings. Gavin Newsome would be a compelling center-left alternative but he has been dissuaded from running apparently. Where is Elizabeth Warren? Nowhere to be found.
The Republican and Democratic parties don't favor democracy. They favor staying in power and preservation of power is behind everything they do. No one is suggesting that Biden is a "great" candidate. He is far from it obviously but still a much better option than Trump. Let's stop running from truths.
I don’t know if you need to head back to the third grade and do a review on what “opinion” and “fact” mean, but I’m happy to vote for Biden. Literally everything that Republicans whine about about him is usually as much the fault of the Republican congress’s.
The GOP wants fascism, christo-fascism. While their voters may mumble some words about Trump not being who they want, they’ll toe the cowardly line and vote for him, the GOP’s attempted coup long enough ago to let them “forget.”
Anyone who supports “No Labels,” a naked attempt by the GOP to seize power by diluting Democratic votes, is a Republican and comfortable with everything the GOP wants to do to America.

No one thought that Donald Trump could win either but he did once. Trump was covered on the entertainment pages well into the 2016 campaign by a respected news organization. Why exactly do you think it is impossible for No Labels to win? Especially since other posters are convinced that they have hundreds of millions in the bank, which would help getting on the ballot and in communications, etc.
Why dot you explain where these electoral college votes are going to materialize? Let's see that list.
You are missing the point. At this time during the 2016 cycle, (Oct. 2015), no one thought that Trump had a snowball's chance yet he won comfortably. Pollster Kellyann Conway was mocked even a week or so before the election when she explained Trump's numerous paths to victory. It is possible to change the electoral map.
You are missing the point. Do your best Kellyann and explain the no labels "path to victory".
I have not seen any polling. Keep in mind that we are more than a year out from the election. There are serious people from both major political parties attached to No Labels. If the major parties insist on running Biden and Trump, there will be a viable alternative.
Really? A viable alternative has a path to victory. What states are going to have no labels win the electoral college? A hypothetical "path to victory" will suffice. What is it?

Whine and cry to all the voters that can't be bothered to vote in a primary. The solution is not billionaires coming in to try to manipulate things to their liking with third party stunt.
The solution certainly isn't hoping either party, one of them entirely lost to extremists and the other making alarming concessions to its own extremists, suddenly decides to correct its course and actually represent more moderate views. Many people are politically homeless. Deal with that instead of trying to browbeat anyone who dares question your Revolution. If Democrats need to hold onto my vote then return to moderate policies.
Vote for trump or vote for no labels. The effect is the same.
Maybe No Labels can ultimately throw its weight behind Democrats if Democrats can re-commit to being sensible rather than Revolutionary? Because if you keep doing what you're doing and simply insulting anyone who disagrees with you, you will also be voting for Trump because too many moderates can't endorse some of your policies.
No labels would only throw it's little weight to a Dem if that would help trump. What are you not understanding about no labels?
There is a real need for representation for moderates. No Labels has explanations other than dividing the vote.
Look how dogmatic you are... are you really prepared to work with people who want to consider things more carefully?
Narrator: it is a bunch of right wingers, funded by right wing billionaires, pretending to be moderate.
Let's not fall for it.
Yes, we can consider things more carefully, and in considering "no labels" - it is sham meant to split votes away from the Democrats in order to secure right wing fascism, so just own it for what it is.
No Labels has been around for a while. It looks to consist of a mix of disaffected DLC Democrats who have banded together with some Never Trumpers more recently. If you do not like the billionaires you assert without evidence are funding No Labels, then work at the grass roots level to find another candidate to replace Biden at the top of the ticket. The No Labels folks have agreed to go away if that happens.
Did you just show up to this long thread? There’s a ton of evidence throughout it and the links in it.
Since you apparently have spent time reviewing this thread, please provide one link with evidence showing that billionaires are behind No Labels and trying to elect Trump. Thanks in advance.
Plus, Crow, notwithstanding that he is apparently personal friends with a Supreme Court Justice appointed by a Republican, has made it clear that he is looking for a third party candidate not to reelect Trump:
In a statement to The New Republic, Crow said he supports No Labels because he believes that both parties have become too extreme. “America is in trouble if we keep going down the path of letting the two extremes dictate our politics,” Crow said in the statement. “I support No Labels because our government should be about what’s best for America, not what’s best for either political party. That’s also why I’ve supported candidates from both sides of the aisle who are willing to engage in civil discussions to move our country forward.”
The $130,000 is to a No Labels affiliated group that is disclosing its donors, but the actual No Labels is not and has hundreds of millions in dark money.
I have the list of donors and I've met with Nancy Jacobson. There are SEVERAL Trump donors on the list. Not just Crow. You cannot convince me that they would donate for any reason other than to get Trump elected. If it was just Crow, I would believe the story, but it isn't.
Isn't it possible that these so-called Trump donors have broken with him due to 1/6, multiple impeachments, his countless statements that have offended people, etc., and are looking for another candidate?
Of course plenty of republicans hate trump. What is not possible is that these folks actually believe that their third party candidate would win a presidential election. That is nonsense and they know it.
No one thought that Donald Trump could win either but he did once. Trump was covered on the entertainment pages well into the 2016 campaign by a respected news organization. Why exactly do you think it is impossible for No Labels to win? Especially since other posters are convinced that they have hundreds of millions in the bank, which would help getting on the ballot and in communications, etc.
Why dot you explain where these electoral college votes are going to materialize? Let's see that list.
You are missing the point. At this time during the 2016 cycle, (Oct. 2015), no one thought that Trump had a snowball's chance yet he won comfortably. Pollster Kellyann Conway was mocked even a week or so before the election when she explained Trump's numerous paths to victory. It is possible to change the electoral map.
You are missing the point. Do your best Kellyann and explain the no labels "path to victory".
I have not seen any polling. Keep in mind that we are more than a year out from the election. There are serious people from both major political parties attached to No Labels. If the major parties insist on running Biden and Trump, there will be a viable alternative.
Really? A viable alternative has a path to victory. What states are going to have no labels win the electoral college? A hypothetical "path to victory" will suffice. What is it?
You Trumpers and Bideners are so funny with all this wasted thought worrying about some entity that might be a political party yet they have never, ever actually had a candidate. Stop worrying; we will have the misfortune of a choice between the two 80 year old candidates and they'll have no competition. Aren't we so lucky!
So there is no actual path. No labels is full of BS and wants to just serve as a spoiler.
Yes, this is the case. They can whine about “both sides” all they want but they’re cheering for no labels solely for being a spoiler.
“Despite what’s being posted here”? Honestly, I fear for the children of tomorrow when the Republicans of today have reading comprehension like yours. Because I’m a Democrat - a real one, not a MoDeRaTe - and I’m the one who has twice posted “Nader, Nader, Sanders/Stein.” You know why? Because I understand that a spoiler doesn’t need to be huge in order to destroy progress. Too many people are way too stupid and will vote for Literally Any Corpse (R). To prevent fascism, to prevent the destruction of life as we know it, to prevent wars, we can’t afford to peel off votes for what is an obvious Kanye-for-President level BS gambit from the GOP.
Your hyperbole is getting tiresome. Time to take a chill pill and work toward achievable solutions rather than name calling, which is off-putting to those moderates and independents who the Dems need. I mean, you slam Dems because you think they aren’t true Dems or Dem enough. Keep it up though if you want people to vote 3rd party.
Voting no labels is voting for trump. Stop treating posters like fools.
They’re not dumb like they’re trying to pretend. They just have to troll that hard to try to hide their love for the GOP and all their sick policies.
