Nina Turner Rips Biden

Sanders Campaign Co-Chair Nina Turner Rips Biden: Choosing Between Him and Trump is Like Eating From a ‘Bowl of Sh*t’

By Rudy TakalaJul 27th, 2020, 4:30 pm

Nina Turner, the co-chair of Sen. Bernie Sanders’ (I-VT) 2020 presidential campaign, slammed former Vice President Joe Biden in an interview published Monday.

“It’s like saying to somebody, ‘You have a bowl of shit in front of you, and all you’ve got to do is eat half of it instead of the whole thing,” Turner said of the choice between voting for Biden and President Donald Trump in the 2020 presidential election. “It’s still sh*t.”

Turner made the comment for an interview with The Atlantic exploring several factors working in Trump’s favor in the 2020 election. Those factors include polls potentially overestimating the number of Biden voters who will show up at the polls as a result of underwhelming enthusiasm for his candidacy. The column similarly quoted Harvard professor Cornel West, who also supported Sanders, slamming the former vice president: “We have to be true to ourselves and acknowledge that Biden is a mediocre, milquetoast, neoliberal centrist that we’ve been fighting against in the Democratic establishment,” West said.

Sanders should denounce both Turner and West.

[RandySF]

1. Nina who?

[soothsayer]

7. And what does Ike think?

[robbob]

27. Lol!

😂

[cojoel]

39. I guess they would have to have a seance

he has been gone a while

[trueblue2007]

28. she is an Ass-hole and I can't stand her. She did nothing but LIE about Hillary

[NurseJackie]

75. She's gone full-on Sarandon... plus some Kanye West stupid-crazy... and then some.

[secondwind]

2. These people really take their third party business seriously!!

Fuck you, Nina Turner... I said that seriously, too.

[Dream Girl]

3. What on earth did Sanders promise her.

She is beyond bitter that whatever it is she ain’t getting it

[empedocles]

4. cornel west seems bitter that JB is a big winner - in contrast to west's losers

[ProudMNDemocrat]

5. What is Nina pissed about now?

That Bernie Sanders, her candidate, realized he was not going to win the Nomination and is working with Joe Biden to bring about a more progressive agenda?

Sour grapes only go so far. Nina Turner has a lot to offer is she can get over her disappointment.

[Jedi Guy]

56. About all she can offer me that I care about is her absence. Can't stand her. N/T

[ace3csusm]

6. Well Nina this has worked out great for you these last four years ...

Im sure this is the same you thought of Hilary , Your candidate loss again sore loser...

[oasis]

8. So called Democrats like Turner and Cornel West were a stumbling block

in our efforts to defeat Trump in 2016.

They're at it again.

[BlueMTexpat]

16. So-called Dems like them

have been a major bane in the party since at least 2000!

[oasis]

23. West spent the last decade trashing President Obama. Hillary's

2016 Convention should have never let him participate in the Dem Platform Comittee

BTW, West walked out on the committee in a huff.

[BlueMTexpat]

67. Hillary was much

too gracious!

[uponit7771]

42. +1, West said Obama Nword-ized the White House ... West and Turner are assholes

[zonemaster]

9. If the choice is between a bowl of sh*t and a bowl of Plutonium (a.k.a. Trump)...

By all means, give me a heaping second helping of sh*t!

[Cha]

10. nina turner is a "Bowl of Sh*t'".. she's just showing off how Stupid

she is.

[mcar]

11. Stein voter says what?

[soothsayer]

12. Rumi: Sit, be still, and listen, because you're drunk and we're at the edge of the roof.

[Blue_true]

44. No, on the edge of the roof of the skyscraper. nt

[soothsayer]

57. Maybe a drumpf tower

[Blue_true]

61. Hopefully not. People wouldn't even get to the edge of that before the roof collapses, sort

of like a Bruce Willis movie, people hanging on the edge by their fingers and pieces of former construction fly by them on their way down forty stories to the street below.

[no_hypocrisy]

13. In NJ-9, we have a similar purist.

Criticizing our progressive democratic representative, Bill Pascrell, like she's a Republican. He won the primary and she won't let up. I thought that candidates coalesced and supported the nominee. Not in this case or in Nina Turner's case.

[GulfCoast66]

14. More help for Biden.

The more independents and even non-religious nut republicans see Biden as a steady choice the better he will do.

Any on the left who will not vote for Biden in November made that decision in April. Or December.

[Blue_true]

45. I agree. People like Turner and West were never going to vote for Biden, even

if he promised to give them everything they want they would still find a reason why he is unsuitable to them.

[DFW]

15. If Nina Turner thinks Joe Biden is a "bowl of shit,"

I'd say she should inform us exactly who the Democratic Party REALLY preferred, and be quick about pointing this out to us.

Barring that, I don't see where anything she has to say about our choice of nominee should be of any interest whatsoever to Democrats. She is not one, and obviously hates our guts. In that, she has more in common with Tom Cotton, Tucker Carlson and Mitch McConnell than she does with us.

[Blue_true]

49. She did an interview for the Atlantic.

How many working class people of any ethnic group read the Atlantic? She is preaching her captured choir, so is Cornell West.

We need to speak to and for everyday Black people that have to shower after a work day, because the work was demanding and the pay not enough.

[Budi]

17. Nina nd Cenk too...

Link to tweet

From: Off the Rails

[StevieM]

55. In late 2016 Cenk went through a phase where he actually wanted Nina Turner to be considered

for DNC chair.

Ultimately, the left united behind Keith Ellison. But that made a lot more sense than picking someone who didn't even support the ticket in 2016.

[Budi]

64. Cenk is another who conveniently became a Democrat in 2016.

What a group. Cenk, Rogan, Sirota, Nina, Sarandon, & that guy who referred to a young boy's teacher as an "old bitch" who gave him cancer as an adult..


'Old bitch'
'Bowl of shit'

& the filthy mysoginistic words of Cenk.

Thank God for respectful mature people leading the Democratic Party.
(There's a reason Cenk & Nina's irrational foul mouths got obliterated & soundly rejected in the Primary)

Enough is enough. To be given a public voice as they have & then resort to foul gutter speak is just too much.

Gross

[SharonClark]

18. If she's still on Sanders' payroll then he needs to

fire her. I can’t imagine the hatred both of them will have for Biden’s veep selection.

[trueblue2007]

33. Sanders will NEVER fire Nina. He loves her and everything that comes out of her mouth

I can't stand either one. Sorry but they aren't Dems.

[Maru Kitteh]

19. Nina and her fellow clowns need to take their act to a new circus, and get TF

away from the grownups who have real work to do.

POOR JUDGEMENT, anyone who hires them.

[hlthe2b]

20. She should know about a "bowl of shit"...

This "person" is without defense. She will say ANYTHING to get a moment of attention.

and Cornell West, who thought he should attack the first black President at every turn, lost any respect any of us SHOULD have for him a long time ago.

[still_one]

21. That alone should ban her from the Democratic Convention, and Sanders' needs to disavow her

I am getting so tired of these same voices, going out of their way to bash the Democratic Party, and our nominee

No surprise. The same thing applies to David Sirota, and other jack asses who did the same thing to undermine the Democratic nominee in 2016

[FloridaBlues]

48. I doubt either one will be a delegate to convention

[Budi]

22. Hey Cornel West, you left out 'Wall Street'

Cornel West, who also supported Sanders, slamming the former vice president: “We have to be true to ourselves and acknowledge that Biden is a mediocre, milquetoast, neoliberal centrist that we’ve been fighting against in the Democratic establishment,[/b]”

[still_one]

25. The slurs that Cornell West hurled at President Obama highlight just what kind of a person he is

Neither Turner or West should be allowed at the Democratic Convention, either virtually or in person

[Budi]

36. They need to be rejected by the people & Party they represent,

...so this foul mouthed bs is representative of who they are?

This is certainly not the Democratic Party.
Our Revolution is Nina's baby, maybe its time they form their own Party & drop the D they stick behind their name.

Do not come here & disgrace the Democratic Party.
GTFO

[still_one]

41. +++

[Blue_true]

52. You make a good point. The only time that they are ever on the same side as

us is when they are trying to take over our party in primaries. They oppose us in General elections. We don’t need them and they won’t help us if we give them a platform. Joe should thoroughly ignore them.

[calguy]

24. If it's a bowl of sh*t,

Nina Turner is the substance in that bowl.

[sheshe2]

26. West and Turner voted Stein 2016.

Talk about half bowls of shit.

[Blue_true]

53. They have voted against progress in the General since at least 2000, at least West

has, Turner called herself a democrat a little while longer. We simply have no reason to care about what they say.

[sheshe2]

54. So true, Blue.

[Skittles]

29. not really sure why I should care what she thinks

seriously

[still_one]

30. What a vulgar and classless person

[Deb]

31. Something only a shitty cook would know.

By the sounds of it, she's probably crappy at baking anything sweet too.

[pamdb]

32. Never cared for Cornell West and can't STAND Nina Turner.

She needs to STFU and just go away. And take Cornell West with her. If you can't say anything good about someone, don't say anything at all. Maybe
Bernie can give a call and tell her to STFU, she isn't helping anything. She and Cornell are so narrow minded that all they can think about is THEIR agenda.
I might, might, be more progressive than Biden, but the most important thing
is to get rid of trump. That is number one and most people with a brain in their head realize that. Unfortunately, these two do not.

[trueblue2007]

34. they are BOTH full of hared. I think Evil is boiling over them.

[Hortensis]

70. You're many times more progressive than those phonies.

Using government to make progress happen? Examine the actions, and turns out attacking Democrats IS the agenda.

[sweetloukillbot]

35. Wasn't she being touted as the right VP choice a couple weeks ago? NT

[Budi]

37. God help us. VP Nina 🤮🤬👎

[comradebillyboy]

65. Not by any sane folks. Maybe some DSA types who weren't going to support

our nominee under any circumstances.

[ismnotwasm]

38. Well well

Not surprised

[Blue_true]

40. Any Black person that listens to either Turner or West in 2020 is a damned fool.

The issue comes down to do Black people vote for a person that is going to advance their interests, even if it is not all of them, or vote for a person who has damaged those interests in a first term and would have zero constraints on him in the event he gets a second term.

[we can do it]

43. Fucking ignore her.

[crickets]

46. There's no excuse for any media to willingly give a megaphone

to this divisive crap. There can be no horse race this time. Get over it and be responsible enough to let it go.

[FloridaBlues]

47. Why interview them they are nobody in regards to this election

Has Bernie spoken out yet?

[betsuni]

50. Nutty.

[winstars]

51. So I guess she won't his VP pick now? LOL!!! Go away Nina, go very far away...

[Thekaspervote]

58. A big FU Turner...talk about a bowl of shit

[BigDemVoter]

59. Fuck her.

[Vinca]

60. Nina's really gone batsh*t the last few years.

I remember when she was a state representative and seemed like she had a big future ahead of her. Now she's kind of an overgrown baby who is in a continual snit if the world doesn't turn 100% in her direction.

[SouthernCal_Dem]

62. LOL. She's really wants Trump to win

Too bad for her it isn't gonna happen.

[TomSlick]

63. I have resisted adoption of the expression but

I am out of fucks to give about what Nina Turner thinks or says.

[highplainsdem]

66. Nina may be an expert on eating shit, considering what she vomits up. But she's a complete idiot

when it comes to comparing Biden and Trump.

[treestar]

68. Even Bernie himself has gotten past it long ago

Some people are just insane.

[Baltimike]

69. Let that Stein supporter fuck right off...I've no time for ANY of her shit. nt

[Demonaut]

71. it fits her personality, hers is truly shit

[la-trucker]

72. I agree.

Bernie should show character and denounce these people forcefully. He is the one who gave them the spotlight and so he should clean it up.

[NurseJackie]

73. What does Bernie Sanders see in her?

[oasis]

78. Nina defected early from Hillary's 2016 campaign and joined Bernie.

My reading of the early period of the 2016 primaries is that Bernie felt the need to elevate the diversity profile of his staff after his "awkward" encounters with BLM. During that period, Bernie also employed the services of Symone Sanders.

[NurseJackie]

79. Nina Turner is an absolute trainwreck. Is she manic?

Listening to her speak is such a challenge for me. She runs her mouth at a mile-a-minute! Babble-babble-babble! Barely stopping to breathe and always (ALWAYS!) at the same volume used by schoolteachers so that they can be heard above rowdy kids. Almost shouting/screaming... but definitely loud and in-your-face. (As if sue uses sheer VOLUME to make up for actual meaningful content or intelligence.)

I've never seen her give thoughtful consideration or analysis to any question that's been asked of her. Instead, she just searches the file-folder in her brain for the pre-written and very-scripted Green-party position. She's clearly more "revenge" oriented (against the Democratic party) and wants to help Trump as a way to say "I told you so". --- This, by the way, is something that she stole from the Michael Moore playbook: she'll do her best to kneecap and sabotage our party and our candidate, only for the personal pleasure, gratification and satisfaction she'll receive from being able to say "told you so".

I hate her. She's a fucking mess.

[oasis]

84. Nina's the second coming of Rep. Jim Traficant when it

comes to being a pain in the ass for Democrats.

[NurseJackie]

87. He was from Ohio, too.

[oasis]

89. "RT" commentator, fmr. Rep. Dennis Kuchinich, also Ohioan.He

was once a high profile Democrat but wasn't a big fan of Obama's presidency.

[NurseJackie]

90. How did I miss hearing about the tractor that rolled over on Traficant?

It happened six years ago, but I just read it today. There must have been something else more important going on in my life at that time.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Traficant#Accident_and_death

Traficant was injured in an accident at his farm on September 23, 2014. A tractor he was driving into a pole barn flipped over and trapped him underneath.

What a way to go. That's kinda grizzly.

[NurseJackie]

91. He was a funny-looking man, wasn't he? I think he was very divisive and he...

He was a funny-looking man, wasn't he? I think he was very divisive and he only helped to weaken the party. Is he still spending his time hanging out at RT? (For those who may not already know, here's some wiki info about RT.)

RT (formerly Russia Today) is a Russian state-controlled international television network.[5][6] It operates pay television channels directed to audiences outside of Russia, as well as providing Internet content in English, Spanish, French, German, Arabic, and Russian.

RT has been described as a propaganda outlet for the Russian government[12] and its foreign policy.[13][14][15][16][17][18] RT has also been accused of spreading disinformation[18][19][20] by news reporters,[21][22] including some former RT reporters.[23][24][25] The UK media regulator, Ofcom, has repeatedly found RT to have breached its rules on impartiality and on one occasion found it had broadcast "materially misleading" content.[26][27][28][29] RT's editor-in-chief compared it with the Russian Army and Defence Ministry and talked about it "waging the information war against the entire Western world."[5] In September 2017, RT America was ordered to register as a "foreign agent" with the United States Department of Justice under the Foreign Agents Registration Act. Under the act, RT is required to disclose financial information to the U.S.[30]

[oasis]

92. Dunno if Dennis remains with RT but the last I

read anything about him, RT was where Dennis was "doing his thing".

[NurseJackie]

74. Can we say anything about her that we want to now? Is she still "protected" here as an "ally"?

[BannonsLiver]

76. Alternate headline

“Has been and never will be barks at clouds.”

[Hortensis]

77. :) Your hateful extremism is showing, Nina. Keep it up!

Voters need to be able to see politicians for who they are in order to guess at their real agendas.

It's impossible for anyone to misinterpret what ol' Nina means this time. I read the article thinking context might lessen the emotional stench of Turner's hostility, but no.

"Right wing extremists hate everyone else. Left wing extremists hate themselves."

Some expert on the psychology of extremism whose name I forgot a long time ago. But I've never forgotten this little summary of a difference (while discussing the many strong similarities) between LW and RW extremists because it explains so much.

[Snake Plissken]

80. Susan Collins ... I mean Sarandon is very concerned.

[GoCubsGo]

81. I wish the people close to her would stage an intervention.

She needs help.

[SpaceNeedle]

82. Oh brother

Nina should just fade away. Why are they giving air/print time to a nobody?

[MrsCoffee]

83. She projects like Trump.

[George II]

85. She did more than just "rip" Biden, she called him half a bowl of shit. Disgusting in many ways!

[rockfordfile]

86. That person sounds like she needs to grow up.

[erpowers]

88. This Is Stupid

This is the stuff that makes me wonder if some people are actually reading the policies of the candidates. To claim that having to choose between Joe Biden and Donald Trump is like being told you only have to eat half a bowl of crap is foolish and false. There are a number of thing that Trump is doing that Biden will not do. There are also a number of things Donald Trump is not doing and will not do that Joe Biden will do. There is a really big difference between Donald Trump and Joe Biden.

People like Nina Turner need to be challenged by reporters. How is Joe Biden similar to Donald Trump? Have you read the policy sections of Joe Biden's website? Please list the policies of Joe Biden you dislike.

[ehrnst]

93. Well, that's helpful. Is she consulting for Trump 2020 now?

Last edited Tue Jul 28, 2020, 05:42 PM - Edit history (1)

One might almost believe she would rather see Biden lose to Trump for "vindication."

[PatSeg]

94. Just when we are finally able to forget about her,

she pops up again and says something offensive. She really needs to find another career, she sucks at politics.

[Sugarcoated]

95. So?
