Donald Trump takes any position that serves him politically. That's why it's not too surprising to see him running ads portraying him as a champion of criminal justice reform. He can and will run to the left, and we need to be ready. currentaffairs.org/2020/02/donald…

Trump's ad promoting "criminal justice reform" is laughable given that he pardoned and celebrated one of the most evil and abusive cops in the history of the country: currentaffairs.org/2017/08/wait-d…

I find it weird that other leftists don't hate contemporary architecture as much as I do, considering that it seems to capture so much that has gone wrong with our times and needs fixing. The meaninglessness, the brutality, the alienation, the inefficient wasteful "efficiency" twitter.com/DKurejsepi/sta…

Bernie Sanders:
1. 50 year track record of fighting for you youtu.be/SYxZfksAyco
2. Bold, inspiring agenda to make world better, will organize & get it done currentaffairs.org/2019/11/why-yo…
3. Would have won in 2016, will kick Trump's ass static.currentaffairs.org/2016/02/unless… currentaffairs.org/2020/01/donald…

Pete Buttigieg... well, don't even get me started currentaffairs.org/2019/03/all-ab…
(but don't discourage his supporters, because in Iowa he's helpful for Bernie and we need him to break 15%)

Elizabeth Warren
1. Would also lose to Trump currentaffairs.org/2019/09/the-pr…
2. Is not reliably progressive theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
3. Is impossible to trust currentaffairs.org/2020/01/the-cr…

Current Affairs Informational Packet For Iowa Voters
Just to remind you before you caucus!
Joe Biden
1. Is a horrible person who will do nothing for the country: currentaffairs.org/2019/03/everyb…
2. Would lose catastrophically to Donald Trump: currentaffairs.org/2020/01/a-bide…

Trump will be HARD to beat. He has $100 million already and all of it will go to stuff like that superbowl ad, trying to sell Americans the total lie that he cares about them and is trying to help them.
We can only counter this phony compassion by showing people the real thing.

You want a TRULY powerful ad about the effects of the criminal punishment system? Watch this 2016 ad for Bernie by the late Erica Garner: youtu.be/Syln8IkOIqc

In order to beat him, you need to be able to expose this as the fraud it is, and to offer a powerful and inspiring alternative that feels REAL. This is why we need Bernie.

Trump will attack Biden over this and Biden will have absolutely no idea what to do, because Trump will be right. This is what Trump did with Hillary and Wall Street/Iraq. Trump poses as a champion of working people and he is very good at it. pic.twitter.com/yQe0ebr3Bf

It's one reason nominating Biden is such a horrible idea: Biden's history on criminal punishment is truly reprehensible, collaborating with white supremacist Strom Thurmond to just mercilessly inflict state violence on black and brown people. pic.twitter.com/iPdtGVWt7N

Nobody should be surprised that Trump ran an ad touting "criminal justice reform" and showing Black women released from prison. One of the things that @curaffairs has noted a lot is that Trump will not hesitate to "run to the left" of the Dem during an election.

Even Warren supporters who hate my argument admit that it's accurate: if Warren gets above 15% in the caucuses, it significantly damages Bernie and makes Biden far more likely to win. They hope that she magically rebounds, more likely is they'll just throw the election to Biden. pic.twitter.com/PSLWOeqniQ

Bernie could clinch the nomination very quickly, and take advantage of Biden’s weak moment. Unfortunately Warren is still splitting the progressive vote, meaning Biden still has a good shot. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

There is not going to be a last-minute miraculous Warren surge. She's not even leading Sanders in donors in all of MASSACHUSETTS. What there could very well be is a split progressive vote, with Buttigieg and Klobuchar tanking and allowing Joe Biden to swipe the nomination. pic.twitter.com/EOBJWwdVza

These campaigns have been running for 1 year. Warren is clearly will not come 1st, she'd have to OVERTAKE Sanders in support and organizing in under a month.
Nobody thinks this will happen. The ONLY thing she can do is cause Biden to win, esp. in Iowa. currentaffairs.org/2020/02/please…
