here we go—-krystal ball saying she will “leave it blank” in November. What an absolute hack.

She seems quite proud of herself to reassure everyone that she won't vote for Trump, but at the same time... she won't help the Democrats defeat him. It must be nice to live in such privilege and wealth that she doesn't have to worry about the same things that the most vulnerable among us do. She's a regular Susan Sarandon, isn't she? And Cenk Uygur (the bestiality defender, look it up!) is right there egging her on and agreeing with her.

What delicate flowers they both are. Spoiled brats having a crybaby temper-tantrum.

1. How incredibly foolish.

[TheBlackAdder]

37. She's sosmug when she talks--like she's bestowing some form of cosmic enlightenment on everyone.

.

She definitely likes to hear herself talk.

SMUG. Reminds me of this South Park scene.

.

[ThisIsNotPossible]

2. Obviously a hardcore Trump supporter

She almost certainly voted for him in 2016, and will, I suspect, do so again.

[Tweedy]

30. No, she is not

Magnanimity should be practiced by the victor.

The loss is not yet official and it is still raw.

[BGBD]

41. false

if you aren't work iui ng against Trump, you are working for him.

There isn't an equivalency between Biden and Trump. One wants to provide universal healthcare in a different way than Bernie Sanders, and one empowers Nazis.

[Tweedy]

72. Nudge

Nudging people works. Threatening folks may work with the GOP, but it won't work for most of us.

That said, both Biden and Sanders are infinitely preferable to the unindicted co-conspirator we have now.

Why? Because neither man is a sadist and the president we have now is.

[Aquaria]

77. Oh for crying out loud

BS supporters are threatening not to vote for a D because they can't get their way--which are the threats of spoiled brat bullies, but it's the rest of us who have to be conciliatory to those crybaby tantrum throwers?

Really?

What planet are you living on where we the grownups have to accommodate puerile crybabies throwing tantrums when they don't get their way, or they'll take their toys and go home?

They need to grow the hell up and deal with the real world, for once in their over-privileged, pampered lives.

[Tweedy]

78. Wow

I do not believe Joe Biden agrees with you on this.

That sounded quite a lot like a sore winner.

Our kids have gotten shafted in more ways than I can count; although, Senator Sanders losing this would not constitute a new shafting.

Our kids are not spoiled brats. They are struggling to make things work burdened by enormous debt, an economy that keeps crashing on them and scam artists, like for profit colleges, sitting like vultures waiting to rob their wallets.

The best way for our kids to reverse this trend is for them to vote.

The best way for us to nudge them to the polls is to recognize their problems and propose solutions. We won't get a single kid (who may be working 3 jobs in the "gig" economy) to vote Democratic by calling them whiners.

Shall we leave the insults to the GOP, please?

[hlthe2b]

66. She may as well be; the result is the same.

[HarlanPepper]

3. Dead enders gonna dead end.

At least she knows Bernie is toast. Someone should get that memo to Bernie.

[IronLionZion]

5. Millennial voters would put some avocado on that toast

[HarlanPepper]

7. That would require them to show up in the kitchen.

[IronLionZion]

8. it would be wise for people to learn some kitchen skills

as we all end up self quarantining for a while

[HarlanPepper]

9. Without a doubt.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

4. Krystal can fuck right off.

[NurseJackie]

6. Hey Krystal! Hey Cenk!

Hey Krystal! Hey Cenk!

[George II]

10. Ballot or mind?

[NurseJackie]

12. That's an excellent question! (Both?)

[NurseJackie]

15. Is she still under-contract with MSNBC (or any other network)? She should be fired.

This is just some STUPID shit right there.

[George II]

16. She does a podcast that appears on The Hill, and that video was on TYT. Revealing.

[NurseJackie]

60. Aw.

[CanonRay]

11. Then I have absolutely no use for her.

[Happy Hoosier]

13. Even Cenk calls out that bullshit. NT

[Cha]

18. Oh yeah.. what did he say? TY, HH

[IADEMO2004]

14. Been there done that. BAD PLAN!! Not again Please.

[Cha]

17. I knew it!.. Krystal Ball doesn't give a shite about our Country

or our Planet.

[radius777]

19. Sore losers. Biden was a dead man

without money until Clyburn saved him. If you can't beat a dead man, it shows you have no ability to expand your base and are a weak candidate hoping to beat a divided field.

Dem voters (who are overwhelmingly center-left Obama/Clinton Dems) ultimately rushed out to support Biden because they rejected what Sanders and the far-left was selling, don't like the Bernie Bros, etc.

[Todd79]

20. I'm Sure She has a nice trust fund set up by mommy and daddy

[mcar]

21. This makes me so angry

[NurseJackie]

23. Basically she's encouraging others to do the same...

... she's giving "permission" and otherwise providing justification for such treachery.

This is much the same thing that Jane did on ELECTION DAY last time... she tweeted a message to her followers letting them know that it really didn't matter who you voted for, as long as you voted. Again, giving permission to vote third party... because, "it didn't matter".

What horse shit! I'm sick of this. Fact of the matter is, it DOES matter. Why are people like this indulging the vanities and egos of bubbleheads?

It's insane.

[NurseJackie]

62. I chose that word quite deliberately. I know what it means. I meant what I said.

I chose that word quite deliberately. I know what it means. I meant what I said.

You need help. Or a dictionary. Or a course in American history.

I have not personally attacked you. Why do you believe that you have the right to personally attack and insult me? I've done nothing to deserve that treatment from you.

[ehrnst]

67. Perhaps you need....

[wyldwolf]

22. Petulance

[Codeine]

24. And so it begins. nt

[vercetti2021]

25. Who cares about this has been?

She can be a borderline moron for all I care but nobody's going to take her serious

[Funtatlaguy]

26. So pretty on the outside and ugly on the inside.

[still_one]

27. Then I would say any show of support for Ms. Ball is identical to not supporting the Democratic

nominee

[Just_Vote_Dem]

28. Basically they're Repubs pretending to be liberals/left wing

I don't care how many hours they're on the air supposedly supporting left wing causes. No liberal or progressive would not vote against the Orange Monster if they had a chance

[dansolo]

63. Also Cenk and Tulsi

I don't believe that either one of them are really progressives.

[Docreed2003]

29. Wow...the privilege is just astounding from her

[samnsara]

31. ill takei bet a lot of GOP Congre blank. I think a LOT of former trump* voters will leave it blank..

...I bet a lot of the GOP Congress will leave it blank. He has no way of knowing how they vote..

[Mister Ed]

32. That space between her ears has been left blank. n/t

[IluvPitties]

33. She's a Trump supporter then.

[onenote]

34. She has a lot in common with Bernie: when she ran for Congress she topped out at 34 percent.

[Gothmog]

35. I do not like or pay attention to either Ball or Cenk

[Squinch]

36. What a maroon. What an ignoranimus.

[blm]

38. What's her income? Her husband's? No issues with Supreme Court cases?

No lives matter.

Krystal Ball is the founding member of No Lives Matter.

[NurseJackie]

39. She and Susan Sarandon

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

40. To admit that you're not going to vote for the Democratic nominee

Is to admit you have a tremendous privilege

https://www.democraticunderground.com/1287657165

[NYMinute]

42. Stupid woman.

[rockfordfile]

43. She's a pos hack

[Peacetrain]

44. Sad thing is, we all knew this..

[William769]

45. hell hath no fury like a Sanders supporter scorned

[The Revolution]

46. We always talk about republicans voting against their own interests

But some on the left are apparently just as willing to do so. I get being disappointed if your preferred candidate doesn't get the nomination. But how is another term of trump going to help the progressive policies you claim to support?

They seem to think, "this will show Democratic voters that they have to vote for our candidate", so that next time they'll get a more progressive nominee.

In the mean time, Republicans will continue to gain a stranglehold on the judicial branch. Further restrictions of voting rights will be upheld. Rollbacks of environmental laws, consumer protection laws, civil rights laws will follow. We'll just vote them out, you say? Sorry the election was cancelled...can't have "human scum" messing up all these great changes can we? That's illegal, you say? Trump's court says it's fine.

Am I exaggerating? Maybe a little, but it's true that all evil needs to succeed is for you to do nothing to stop it.

[MineralMan]

47. Well, then, I'm going to hold my breath until I turn blue!

So, there! I'll show you!

[BootinUp]

48. "Hack" cant be the best ya got, lol. Sorry but

stronger stuff wants to come out. She is angling to be the next Bern I guess.

[highplainsdem]

49. If she does that she's betraying both the party she used to support, and the country.

[Sugarcoated]

50. Spite.

That's just a sore loser.

[RandySF]

51. I envy her privilege.

[PupCamo]

52. I never knew she was a talking head

every time I heard the name, I thought it was one of RuPaul's drag queens

who names their kid Krystal Ball?

[MustLoveBeagles]

53. What a spoiled brat

[NurseJackie]

73. Exactly. Yes. Thank you.

[MustLoveBeagles]

74. I used to like her but she gone off the deep end in recent years

We don't have time for her tantrums. The future of our country is at stake.

[lapucelle]

56. Her master plan failed!

[Vivienne235729]

57. She might as wel embrace her true colors and stump for trump.

[Cha]

59. Kos: Anyone who says they're not voting for Biden is also saying.

[MrsCoffee]

61. Just like her brain apparently.

Sick of the idiocracy.

[NurseJackie]

65. ... and those who defend it, and make excuses for it.

Anyone defending Krystal Ball's decision to "leave it blank" is equally treacherous.

[Renew Deal]

64. Trump supporter Krystal Ball...

[Blue_Tires]

68. We all knew a whole lot of fake-assed liberals

were going to unmask themselves once it became clear that Sanders wasn't going to win...

I'm grateful for this because I need to know up front who I can and can't trust moving forward.

But I am disappointed in her... Scary to think that once upon a time long ago I was planning to make her 'Mrs.' Tires...

[Denis Enko]

69. Krystal Ball IS a Blank

Just like everybody else at The Hill!

[Goodheart]

70. Here's the deal, Shit Ball

In our unyielding two party system the only chance to win votes to your level of progressivism occurs in the Democratic primaries. If you can't win there it's because the country is not yet ready for it, and the changes you seek must be incremental rather than immediate. You ultimately get NOTHING when you refuse the incrementalism.

[grossproffit]

71. So her ballot will match her brain.

[BeyondGeography]

75. She's horrendous

[Aquaria]

76. Traitor

Let's face it. That's what anyone who pulls such a stunt is.
