      the odds are against us, the odds have always been against us, but in the next few months we have a real chance to elect a democratic socialist president. It seems to me that this is something we should try to dohttps://twitter.com/itsbedtime_/status/1173872543708721154 …

      Or maybe support the candidate who, unlike the socialist, keeps attracting new voters and has just as good proposals and doesn't shout all the time? Just a thought

      Yes! I think its hurting him now and would grate even more if he were elected. Rhetorical style matters in politics even we may wish it didnt

      I think rhetorical style matters, too. Bernie projects visceral anger in a time when anger is the appropriate emotion.

      Only if a majority of voters in states with 270 votes or more agree - and that's dubious

      Trump is a pretty shouty guy whose rallies violated all kinds of norms of middle class decorum. He got 304 electoral college votes.

          But he is entertaining and funny in his sadistic way - and unpredictable. Bernie just comes off as angry and severe, at least to me. Wish we had someone with Obama's style and left politics

          Replying to @mkazin @HeerJeet and

          I think there are a figures who are trying to embrace that combination (Beto, Buttigieg, Harris), but they are struggling. They're not as talented as Obama, and they're respective ties to left politics are weak, but their collective failure to motivate voters is significant
