However Trump led Buttigieg 51% to 49, Trump led Warren 52% to 48% and Harris and Trump were tied 50% to 50%

26% of Sanders voters say they would vote for Trump over Warren and 21% would vote for Trump over Buttigieg but 100% of Buttigieg supporters would vote for Sanders over Trump.
Only 51% of Sanders voters voted for Hillary in 2016, 23% voted for a third party candidate, 19% did not vote and 7% voted for Trump

Sanders going on Fox also shows he is not afraid to enter conservative territory
Butigieg is 13.5 on the presidential market right now, which looks superior to the 6.6 available for Dem nominee.
I think shortly we'll start to get the "Harris isn't making enough ground" articles.
I've changed my mind on Buttigieg at 13.5 anyhow, it no longer looks too short.
A lesson for the Jezza brigade here in UK?

Does make me think that the Brexit Party will end up topping the poll.

People who are hostile to zionism generally (but not always) are talking about the latter - being opposed to expansion and colonisation is not seen as being against Jewish people. People who say anti-zionism equals anti-semitism generally (but not always) are talking about the former. It's best to avoid the term because of this minefield, but one can't unsay things said in a different context 10-20 years ago. One should probably give the benefit of any doubt to anyone who used to say they were anti-zionist, but nowadays it's unwise, and if repeatedly used without explanation it's something to challenge.
Mayor Pete is gay, but the sort of gay that is sufficiently low key to not frighten the horses, and also a middle American boy next door and military vet. I think we may be surprised how unbothered swing state voters are by his gayness.
I think his biggest issue is lack of experience, but he clearly has the big mo behind him.
He really wants it, doesn't he? And he'll espouse any view he thinks will help him get it.

Lol, never ever gonna happen!
I just don't think she has the sizzle.

But many in the American left seem to conflate the two because they don't just look at phenotypes and ancestry but also if there has been systematic oppression of a certain group within the USA to the extent it justifies it's own classification.
So Kamala Harris is simply called black instead of half Indian half black because that's how she chooses to identify and because there has been in the past a "one drop rule".
So the way we would characterize race is very different from Americans.
Yes, it would - but there again if you want to boast about your education best not to make such basic mistakes.
Look how often some drunk political staffer has inadvertently put something on Twitter from their MP or party account, when it clearly should have come from their own personal account.
It used to be that these mistakes could be quickly rectified, but nowadays there’s journalists and opponents following everyone religiously, so there will be a hundred screenshots of the mistake out there within minutes.
I these protests might actually do more harm than good. Certainly Thompson flying in from the States will have thoroughly annoyed many people and will reduce the guilt factor for those jetting of to the Costas for their summer holidays.
It's also meaningless without knowing class of honours and awarding body.
“Buttplug” would just be crass and insulting and I don’t think it would stick / be effective as a name
Perhaps if they didn't spend days lying down in a road they might to able to? And if they get their way, we will face massive increases in taxes, so even less people will be able to afford such things.
Making that future a reality will, among other things, require a lot of batteries: batteries to charge our electric cars; batteries to store solar power collected while the sun’s up and wind power harnessed when it’s gusty out. And as a new report by researchers at the University of Technology Sydney warns, that’s likely to drive demand for the metals used to build green batteries—as well as wind turbines and solar panels—through the roof.
In other words the clean tech boom is, at least in the short term, likely to fuel a mining boom.

It's perfectly true that electric cars are expensive at the moment.
In any case this sort of argument is spurious because only governments can make the changes necessary to combat the worst effects of Climate Change and to put in place the tax laws and incentives that will help the rest of us fight climate change in our individual ways.
The least they can do is live by their own rules.
