« Johnny Depp's Ex, Who Accused Him Of Physical Abuse, Admits Having Physically Struck Depp in Hidden-Mic Audio | Main | Democrat Supporter of "Mayor Pete" Shocked to Learn That the Candidate Running On the Brand Identity of "I'm GAY!" Is a Homosexual »
February 04, 2020

Partial Iowa Results Released; Mayor Pete In First Place?! Biden Fourth! Bernie Bros PISSED!

CNN reporting these partial results.

Partial results? Yeah, none of this makes sense. This is an absolute disaster.

62% reporting, per CNN

Pete 26.9

Sanders 25.1

Warren 18.3

Biden 15.6

Sanders leads in the Iowa popular vote.

Buttigieg leads in the Iowa state delegates.

If you remember, a lot of Bernie Supporters were complaining that even though Bernie was soundly defeating Mayor Cheat at the caucuses, he somehow kept getting the same number of caucus votes as Mayor Cheat.

In other votes, the candidates who didn't get enough votes to be "viable" sent their votes to Mayor Cheat to deny Sanders the win.

Can't wait for the Bernie Bros to react.

Meanwhile, Kasie Hunt took to twitter to whine about being on hold while trying to change a flight, and blaming Trump:

Um, was it Trump who made her stay late in DC?

Or was it the Democrats and their impeachment fantasies? Should Trump have resigned from office on Thursday to save mid-level "journalist" Kasie Hunt some hold time?

Or was it, you know, her boss who made her stay late in DC? Or, you know, having to "adult" (as the Millennials annoyingly say) and sometimes work longer hours than you were expecting?

Well, who knows. All I know is that this Brave Firefighter is very upset that she had to wait on a hold line.

Here's some of this Brave Firefighter's recent "journalism:"


You know, I hear that John McCain once had to wait seven years on hold at the Hoa Loa Prison.

And speaking of liberal hacks -- remember Paul Krugman's confident prediction that the markets would never recover from Trump's victory in 2016?

From this, just after Trump's election...

Still, I guess people want an answer: If the question is when markets will recover, a first-pass answer is never.

...

So we are very probably looking at a global recession, with no end in sight. I suppose we could get lucky somehow. But on economics, as on everything else, a terrible thing has just happened.

To this grudging admission last week:

"The economy is doing pretty well at the moment. Do you agree?" Hoover asked.

"Yeah," Krugman admitted. "I mean... there's a lot of stuff that we’re not taking care of that we should be taking care of, but look -- best estimate is that Trump has added about $300 billion at an annual rate to the budget deficit. That's a big stimulus. That's almost as big as the Obama stimulus at its peak. So, sure."

You know, it's funny: Mitt Romney ran on a plan to reduce the deficit by curbing Social Security and Medicaid spending -- those being the two biggest drivers -- and Obama ran against that, and didn't even bother to offer any plan in counter. When one of his finance advisers were asked what Obama's plan was, he said "We don't have a plan." And that they planned to continue not having one.

But now the deficit is a big problem, huh?

...


"So the Trump economy hasn't been all bad?" Hoover pressed.

"No," Krugman replied. "I mean, full employment is good. Those of us who were screaming for more stimulus back in the days when unemployment was nine percent still think that some stimulus is good even now."
