While they will never, ever admit this, I think they already know they're going to lose, big time, no matter which one of these chuckleheads they pick. Given that, losing with Biden keeps their existing old boy graft network in place, while losing with Sanders means that they're out on their ears, replaced by a bunch of dull-witted Portland baristas and AOC clones.
So, yeah, I think they'd prefer Biden.

"The Fed" has been the problem for 35 years, or 106 years. But currently easing (or at least pausing any raises) will "help". But they time the markets and it may have been wise to let the selling wave go, then come in to save the day, rather than fight the "Pandemic Fear" pushed by the crazed ones.
Druckenmiller says fed would be political if they act just so they don't look like they are being bullied by Trump. idk what is next, "they" might want to tank markets ... anything to stop Trump. But the monetary bubble is a real thang ... we need to get past the election though, before we can deal with it, cuz people vote for Santa Claus promises.
this (YouTube link) is from a month ago ... but Druckenmiller notes the tough position Powell is in ... "Yellen said she was going to hike four times, but she did not hike until after Trump's election".
True ... Fed tried to help Hillary ... hikes started right after the election 2016, and probably influenced the 2018 election. But all we hear is "Russia influenced our elections". (not to mention the 24/7 smear campaign against Trump by MSM and Hollywood, etc.)

Just to see how many are left standing, probably.
I think Klobuchar is gone after Super Tuesday. Unless Fauxcahontas pulls a surprise upset, she's also gone, as is Gabbard.
Bloomberg is in it till the end unless he runs out of money (which won't happen). Biden has been revitalized. If he wins a couple of states on Super Tuesday, he'll stay in. If Buttigieg wins a couple of states, he'll stay in. Sanders is like that mystery dead rodent stench you smell in your beach house the first time you go there in the summer. He'll never go away.

OBJECTION! Assumes facts not in evidence.
There is no proof that the Fed has any idea how to build a stable economy, much less cleverly manipulate one.
The Fed's raising interest rates came as a response to rising wages, which were interpreted as "inflation." This was because the Fed assume that real wages would never rise again.
But they did, because Trump's border controls and on-shoring actually caused the labor market to tighten.
This used to be normal, but since the Fed has taken it as a given that it's *impossible* for blue-collar wages to ever increase, it had to have been inflation, and therefore needed to be swiftly crushed.
There's also the issue of unwinding all the paper they bought under Obama to juice stocks. So that will also cause a selloff.

They literally have no idea how they work.
Thus, tried and tested tools sat and rusted while the working classes were told globalism is inevitable.
Trump and his team knew that was bullshit, but all the money men disagreed. Now they're helplessly watches as Trump's policies do things we've been told needed a magic wand:
Rising real wages for blue collar workers
Full employment for same
Skilled labor wages outpacing useless office drones
Surges in American manufacturing
Next up: Rising birth rate as booming pay scales make families more attractive and the American Dream is once more something people believe in.

Sadly, you never know who these people are. Most cases will look like a cold or mild flu and ignored. I went to an auction (relatively crowded event) where people were talking about this and acting as if a corona virus patient would have the mark of Cain. The reality was that nobody in that room had the slightest idea of who the people next to them or the row in front of them had been with or if they had traveled to Japan or Venice or Korea. None at all. The people sort of knew each other from other similar events, but probably couldn't tell you last names, occupations, or hometowns of the others.
The idea that anyone's circle of acquaintances has no people who could be in harm's way is probably not reasonable. Kids and grandkids might get mild cases and no one will be any the wiser til great grandpa gets it.
I'm not doing any more than extra handwashing and spraying a few doorknobs with disinfectant.

The Dems had been whipped to a fever pitch, so it was going to be tough no matter what Ryan did.
I think a more significant outcome was learning that the "fiscal conservatives" were complete and utter frauds. Ryan's "Roadmap" was b.s. from top to bottom. Romney's cut from the same cloth. These guys would not only be fine approving bloated deficits, but happy to boost spending for Planned Parenthood in the bargain because "that's not the hill to die on," or some other nonsense.

Ryan was one of the biggest con jobs the GOP ever inflicted on the base. I still remember a 2010 interview Hugh Hewitt had with him, after the Tea Party driven election results put the GOP in charge, and for once that windbag Hewitt was doing the right thing, hectoring Eddie Munster to follow through on promises to make deep cuts. You could tell that Paulie Peanuts was really uncomfortable which gave me a heads up on what really lay ahead. It was downhill from there. Thank God the voters rejected him and Mutt Rombley.

What Ryan did was much worse than just slow walking legislation - he chose to join up with 40 of his never trumper allies in the house and deliberately tanked the 2018 elections so that Nancy could take over. I can't think of any Speaker of the House in American History that has ever betrayed his voters and the Country more deeply than Ryan did. And they all announced they were quitting too late for viable replacements to be found, so it was deliberate.

I'm also curious to see if this virus can stand the AZ weather. We had 75 yesterday, will have 78 today, and it'll be in the triple digits by April or May.

It's also likely you didn't get diversity points to encourage "women of color" to participate in science. I'm betting AOC did, and was celebrated as a pioneer in the field, a role-models for others.
I see that stuff in our local schools, where we have to pretend that women and minorities in student government are brave pioneers, rather than the norm for the last 25 years. When my eldest was in schools I saw an article in the school paper celebrating this nonsense and was moved to dust off my old yearbook.
Yep. Not a single white male elected in 1990. All female except for one black guy. Nobody cared back then.
What pisses me off about this "diversity" garbage is that they act like it's Selma 1964.

I saw a Chinese kid yesterday wearing a black mask. The man with him (father?) didn't have one. It could have been a warming mask because the win chill was pretty ferocious and with the massive influx of Chinese students masks like that aren't uncommon.
Some of the apartments that cater to students have signs in Mandarin out front.

Raising rates will generally hurt stocks ... whether it is the right thing or not ... they did that right after Trump was elected after helping Obama all those years.

Trump was pretty sure the Dems would be hard to work with, but I don't think he could imagine to what depths his own party would sink to try and sabotage everything he attempted.

Well, when employers get tired of having half their office get the 'flu (themselves included), they'll go back to the old system.
Fixed sick leave and vacation come with tradeoffs, but there's a reason it became common practice. Yes, both will tend to get maxed out, but the alternative is a constant bug circulating in your office.

The degree to which Trump was opposed by his own party is unprecedented in modern politics. Remember, Ryan actually tried to force Trump to drop out and throw the race to Hillary. I don't think that's ever happened before.
And then there was the coup, which also is pretty unique. For all the people wanting Trump to fire everybody, there was simply too much going on. It has taken all this time to find people who are actually trustworthy, since a lot of folks jumped on the Trump Train only to betray him.

Yes, that's true. However, Andrew Carnegie was not an "Orthodox" believer and didn't go to church for years, but he still saw the value in religion for helping to make communities and individuals better.

Loretta Lynn has talked a lot about had bad it has become. Country music went to shit starting in the 80s.

Hey now!! There was no need for that...oh wait, we did put Lindsey Graham in the Senate, so I guess you have a point. (Although to be fair, some of us voted for the other guy.)

ALL commercially promoted music went to shit starting in the 80's. My theory is that all of the actual musicians were driven out of the business by the accountants and marketing managers, and they were replaced by dancers and prancers and lip synchers and "performers", none of whom have a single ounce of true creativity in them.

Removing religion from regular lifestyles was one of the left's more pernicious victories, because it put everyone in a community. The Episcopal Church turning into a social justice enclave drove me away, probably by design.

Are there any languages that are "phoneme complete"? I doubt that's the proper word for it, but i mean a case where every possible valid combination of phonemes up to a certain count yields a valid word in the language.
Maybe some kind of polynesian related language?

she waited too long to do anything about the extremists
therefore, she was swallowed by their ideology
the establishment has made the same mistake
on the bright side for them is the fact that this will probably cure the donks of their extremists, somewhat
wont be rid of them but they will be sidelined

Yup, all those "crossover" artists like Jusin Beiber making Country songs.
Yeah, Allan Jackson has a song about that.
Loretta Lyn recently declared Country is dead.

With digital music and streaming services, if you can't find anything to listen to you're not looking hard enough. Plus things like Bandcamp have pretty much destroyed the dogshit gatekeepers at the big labels.

I use a lot of stamps because I send out cards-signed by our congregation if they feel that their loves ones wouldn't mind-to let the know we are thinking of them and praying for them. It's the ministry of little notes-an idea given to my by a lovely elderly congregation members years ago who has since gone to be with the Lord because she sent cards to people for everything.
