TopicBernie Sanders leaves door open to 2024 White House run.

The idea that Bernie Sanders is the reason Clinton lost is nonsense. Clinton lost because of Clinton.

First off, the 08 primary was WAY more of a slugfest and Obama did not mince words slandering Clinton himself. There was a lot of bad blood during this between Obama supporters and Clinton supporters. Obama went on to win the election in a blowout against a more well-liked Republican.

Secondly, Clinton won the election by three million votes. But somehow in the US you can finish that many votes behind(or more) but somehow still win.

Third, Sanders pretty much gave her the biggest gift ever by overperforming and beating her in states like michigan, wisconsin, etc. That made it clear right there that she could have an issue there and that she might want to spend a little more effort shoring up those states. She opted not to while Trump went hard in that region knowing those states were his main route to victory.

Even more, Clinton and the Democrats straight up wanted Trump to win the Republican primary as they saw him as an easy tin can to beat. They still promote ultra-right candidates and even donate to them because they find them easier to run against. I'm not even saying it's a bad strategy, but if you keep going to that well, those candidates are eventually going to win.

Don't support him running again but if picking between him and a complete embarrassment of a human being like Kamala Harris it's Sanders every time. He really needs to try to find a successor to help elevate to his current position more than anything

There was nothing filler about it..it's major plot development setting up Gene to be Saul again and sowing the seeds for his downfall. I mean if you didn't like it you didn't like it but it's the opposite of filler when they've been building up the Gene timeline since the very start of the show.

Only time will tell. I think even if he's running things from the shadows not having his control freak nature constantly around can only be a positive. So I'll say marginally better in the short term and unknown for long term. Wrestling will still have a big overexposure problem.

Easy because even if he works hard none of his needs or anything are at risk. No matter what he does he's not going to not have a home, food/water, or anything like that. He could retire pretty much at any moment if he actually wanted to, never have to work or do anything he didn't want to again.

So yeah, easy.

Im seeing professional clinics actually saying that rare complications can actually make your eyesight worst and that people with my eyesight are often better off not taking the risk.

That sucks, but it could be worse.

That's true for any eye operation. So always suggested that you try to adapt to your vision before choosing surgery only opt for surgery when the situation is unbearable.

I had two relatives who had eye operations not lasik but cataracts and corneal. For one of them it turned her from legally blind to 20/20 vision. The other one had complications and the situation got worse. Same surgeon and everything.

If the average person can even consider retirement like 3 decades from now it'll mean we pretty much solved all these problems anyway. And if we haven't? I'd rather just die.

Wait so if the feature is already there then you already paid for its components. Or is BMW eliminating the initial price of features they install only to charge with microtransations? Something doesn't seem legal about this.

Honestly if this becomes a trend I'll drive nothing but old cars for the rest of my life. Probably will anyway, fuck car payments

"Well don't you see? It's about choice! Now if you don't want those extra features you don't have to pay for them. Nevermind that the car costs just as much if not more than it ever did"
