StillVotingYang trends on Twitter as Andrew Yang supporters refuse to back Democrat rivals

On 2/15/20 at 9:54 AM ESTPeople have expressed their support online for Andrew Yang in the 2020 Democratic candidate race, despite him pulling out of the election several days ago.

Many tweeted using the hashtag to say they still believe his policies are what the U.S. needs now, while others remained unconvinced by the platforms offered by the remaining Democrats. "His democracy dollars policy is the only policy that brings the power of money in politics back to the people," tweeted Leony Marks.

I watched the Nevada debate with a close eye and an open heart to see if anyone could earn my vote, and I’m StillVotingYang AndrewYang. My heart, my vote. 🧢

That's the most idiotic thing I've heard all day. Those who don't learn from history are doomed to repeat it. VoteTrumpOut2020

I understand they are bitter and they have many reasons to be angry. But it they stay away in November then anything Yang advocated will be crushed by Trump's re-election. Republicans will back a monster no matter what. Democrats want total purity and that is why they will loose

StillVotingYang now and in November BernieYang2020 because... Health is a Human thing

Like Romney's vote it does matter Media & DNC Blackout well documented BarackObama wrong ppl dying out here YES we DO want a revolution Viable 3rd party ChristianYangDemocrats proved by Pete's pander to ChristianDemocrats

Rachel_McRea That’s how you lose elections.

The biggest problem the Dems face is that their party is split between the radical leftists and the regular leftists. Getting Bernie supporters to support the eventual more moderate nominee is their key to success and that just may be a bridge too far.

No ! That will help Trump! Andrew does not want that

DNC is the biggest racist

amjoyshow posted this and it was really jarring to see so many Yang supporters refusing to consider anyone else

As a conservative, you should be glad that I’m stillvotingyang Yang has brought a lot of people who are independents, libertarians, conservatives, and non voters who weren’t democrats. We aren’t voting Dem because we are Dem, we are voting Dem because of Yang.

BryArsenal *Democratic.

That’s the way to give it away.

Buffalo3701 So many ignorants !👎🏻!

MarianRosin That would be “democratic” rivals! Newsweek is now using repug language!?

Stupidity at it's finest

I hate this crap!

Yang was probably the stupidest candidate with the stupidest ideas of all of them.

Trump is going to win reelection because of liberal purist.

The DNC doesn’t get it. They learned too little in 2016. marwilliamson had it right. Makes me wonder though, is their agenda something different!

ZachandMattShow Democracy doesn't work if you vote out of fear of losing. Vote for what you believe in & it's never a wasted vote. If the DNC and media doesn't want people refusing to vote then maybe they should run a fair primary. It's almost like they... Don't really care about normal people

StillVotingYang = BernieBros Can we please act mature adults? AndrewYang

I blame this mentality on the candidates.

It's exactly morons like these that would rather waste their vote on a hopeless cause than help oust a wannabe dictator, that will give Trump four more years. That's four more years this country will not survive, that democracy will not survive.

Oh yeah YangGang we made News Week. We StillVotingYang because AMERICANEEDSYANG and that's the Only Humane thing to do

Who do you all believe in more? In any state; Trump get 3.2 million votes, Dem nom gets 3 million, Yang gets 700k. Congrats! You just helped re-elect Donald Trump.

So let me get this straight...an economic policy means more to you then 1) Fighting climate change 2) Medicare for All - which is almost like a UBI 3) Ending the corporate PAC corruption? I'm not saying UBI doesn't have value, just that there are more issues at stake.

Is StillVotingYang the new BernieOrBust ? Please don’t, AndrewYang wants his supporters to stay in the arena and choose from among the remaining Democrats!

Cutting off their noses to spite their faces.

YangGang forever! StillVotingForYang

williamlegate Then they were never really Democrat’s 🤷🏼‍♂️

williamlegate 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

williamlegate

williamlegate Bravo 👏 👏 👏

williamlegate This is stupid. He’s no longer a candidate. This is how Jill Stein elected tRump.

williamlegate So does that mean they are not accepting Yang's MATH (Make America Think Harder)?

williamlegate AndrewYang needs to address this

williamlegate

Just endorse Bernie already

williamlegate So the StillVotingYang gang are essentially bent on helping Trump's reelection. Talk about monumental selfishness: 'I can't have the candidate I want, so I'd rather screw over the rule of law, women, immigrants, workers, ethnic minorities...'

The ONLY reasonably sane Dem candidate. Of course he can't keep traction in the party.

williamlegate Which proves half his support was from republicans trying to create chaos the entire time. Democrats were never going to get those votes anyways

williamlegate Get thanks Yang voters. This will help re-elect Trump & will hurt all of America plus our democracy.

williamlegate It turns out the gang doesn’t actually understand Math.

That's right, StillVotingYang because he's the only candidate that can move our country forward.

Can’t believe that Andrew wants you to forgo voting for another Dem. Always sorry to see voters act like sore losers. Hope they reconsider. It’s like saying I’ll never fall in love again—not realistic. AndrewYang please speak up for the process.

People vote on what their values and the policies of the candidate that they align with. Sadly the existing candidates will be no different from Trump. Plus DNC reminded me how they push for candidates and not what is best for US.

Andrew! This is where YOU need to step up & talk sense to your supporters. This IS ridiculous. What exactly is their malfunction? So whenever things don’t go your way THIS is how you handle it? Grow the f**k up!

So proud of the YangGang!!! Keep refusing to back the corrupt Dem candidates....they treated Yang very unfairly!!

Well that’s frustrating...then they are aiding in Trump’s re-election.

AnyoneButTrump if your CANIDATE loses we all lose if you don't put Country B4 Party... I would vote for Bush at this point over Trump

Whatever. Just look at this picture every single time you get veklempt about any Democratic candidate.

😂 that’s sad

Yup 👍

GET BACK IN!

Bernie 2.0

Democratic nominee vs. Trump, you got plenty to lose by staying home. Wakeup

How stupid is it that these people are acting so childish about the Andew Yang situation? Isn't it more important to get the guy doing irreparable damage to our country out of the Oval Office first?

🤷🏻‍♀️ It's not the general, right? Let 'em do what they want.

That's why Democrats will not win even if Yang leads

Maybe if it had been a fair fight YangGang would be a bit more receptive but seeing as to how practically every MSM silenced our vote- why does our vote matter now? And Yang had crossover appeal. More unity could’ve been had, but that’s not what MSM is after, now is it?😉

And so the Dems are doomed

He's going to be involved in Bernie's cabinet in some capacity

StillVotingYang trends on Twitter as Andrew Yang supporters don’t see a good alternative in the primaries

I don't begrudge anyone writing him in for the Primaries, but as long as they are voting blue in the General its all good.

Hope they change their mind, but we can't chase them on policy, particularly since a good chunk of them are antagonistic toward Sanders' proposals. UBI is feasible under Sanders, but not during the primary. HOWEVER, Bernie would sign a UBI bill on his desk, guaranteed.

This is how you’ll get Trump re-elected

More and more Americans are waking up to the fact that our political struggles aren't Democrat vs Republican, they're Establishment vs non-establishment. We are committed to voting for real leadership in Washington, and Andrew Yang is just the candidate for that job.

Why should Americans’ votes be “shaped” by the two states that first voted? They’re no leaders and are no better than the rest of the other 48 states that have NOT voted. I’m StillVotingYang! 🧢🗳🇺🇸

Because that worked out so well last time.... Come on people! The idea is to vote the conniving orange idiot out. NOT help him get re-elected!

Spiffy

Wasting your vote

Well that’s just silly!

This is meant as a curious question of positive intent: Can he technically become president if enough people write him in rather than voting for other candidates?

MyLifeIsMunitz Clowns 🤡

StillVotingForYang

I'm pretty sure Russian bots got that trending

All 450 of them?

Idiots.

It's 'DemocratIC' do you not have editors to make sure your grammar is correct?

Then they dont support Yang because I'm pretty sure every candidate understands the goal is to remove 45. It's the same as a 45 cult. Its not about what's better for the nation but just what's good for pride purposes

kavethought VAT gets the gains from moving toward automated labor. Amazon buys robots for their warehouse 10% VAT. McDonald’s buys self serve kiosks 10% VAT. Trucking companies buy self driving trucks 10% VAT. Without the VAT, we’re not getting a slice of that automation switch.

Ok, guys........vote for Yang if you want to. Count those votes for a guy WHO WILL NOT get elected. Might as well for the republican.

Their prerogative.

Your god damn right none of the other candidates are worth it if yang is bernie vp I will vote for him other than that I'll vote for trump or write in yang

UBI is essential to save capitalism from this cruel winner-take-all social upheaval. Mankiw, Musk, Zuckerburg, Kurzweil, Ng, Chris Hughes, Sam Altman, MLK…all supporters. But no Presidential candidates. Inhumane to me.

And that’s what’s up. yanggang StillVotingYang check my tweets for why.

Yang4Life or die!

Yup!! StillVotingYang 💯🧢🖖

What? All ten of them 🤭 jk

They aren't Democrats they are communist.🤔🤷‍♀️

AndrewYang Speak out to them NOW or we get another 4 of Trump and an end to US as we know it.

By not voting 4 other candidates is a vote for Trump. Just like the previous presidential election. Yang needs to stop this immediately. Sanders' followers (many) did the same thing with Clinton. They were booing and disruptive in Nevada regarding other candidates. We got Trump!

Never give up the fight for change. YangGangLove HumanityFirst 🌪️

I am also disappointed AndrewYang is no longer running for president but StillVotingYang we need to support the most similar moderate candidate

I loved getting criticized by yang gang for being blindly loyal to my candidate and causing trump to get elected by not supporting Hillary.

Hopefully Yang can change their minds. He should fundraise and put out ads for the one he believes should win. I'm sure he will be voting for someone other than himself in the upcoming elections!

I'm StillVotingYang

ImWithFakeYang

ZachandMattShow Ez choice. StillVoteYang StillVotingYang

Hell none wont go. StillVotingYang

This needs to stop . These are lost votes VoteBlueNoMatterWho2020 he can run again!!!

Theres's a word for that. Mywayorthehighwayism.

Well guess they like trump

And that’s a key reason why Trump won and will sadly win again. Looking at you Bernie Bros.

If yang endorses one of the other democratas would they all still be voting the same way?

Write in Yang!

Give them time

Good. Making Trump’s landslide bigger one day at a time.

ZachandMattShow I’m definitely StillVotingYang 🇺🇸🧢🇺🇸

YangVets Simply no one else appeals to me. At least StillVotingForYang can express the policies that I believe in.

What in the world... Yang what are you doing?

StillVotingYang StillVoteYang

StillVotingYang

A long of YangGang weren't Dems to begin with. Why would they owe the party support, when their support is for the only candidate they think has a chance at unifying the country as a whole, regardless of party?

Moderates and media types just mad because they know they fake as a tofu burger.

3 times in your article you say AndrewYang is not running Please correct your misleading article Suspended Campaign does not mean not running.Under election law, the phrase suspending a campaign has no formal meaning. AndrewYang is just as applicable StillVotingYang Yang2020

'Suspends' is still not the same as 'dropping out'. And I'll vote my conscious in the primary, regardless. StillVotingForYang StillVoteYang StillVotingYang.

People criticizing YangGang and StillVotingYang don't realize YangGang feels DNC TheDemocrats were instrumental in silencing AndrewYang. Proof of the disrespect is expectation that after that DISS, supporters will fall in line. Hard to help ppl who tanked your candidate.

Yang Gang 4 life! StillVotingYang

ZachandMattShow I voted for Andrew Yang in the NH primary

StillVotingForYang

YangGang2024 - TeamTrump2020 BernieBrosForTrump too, if the DNC does what the DNC does. Screw Bloomberg, Memers Unite.

So in otherwords, yang supporters want another 4 years of trump. Good to know if I ever meet one. Fools. If you don’t VoteBlueNoMatterWho - then you’re essentially voting for trump.

You’re goddamn right StillVotingYang

If they feel so strongly they need to put their 💵 where their vote is. Send him money to keep campaigning.

StillVoteYang

It's almost like they want to KeepAmericaGreat

I hope he encourages them to change their minds

Good way to get Trump re-elected

My state has closed primaries. So I changed my party status from independent to democrat just for Yang. If he's still on the ballot, I will vote for him. Once the general election comes, I shall vote for whom ever stands in opposition to the tyrant that is donald trump.

YangGang needs to get on the Trump Train

stillvotingyang sorry ? 🤷🏻‍♂️

StillVotingYang

Yep. StillVoteYang

scottsantens ImStillVotingYang StillVotingYang WriteInYang UBI Yang2024 Graumann2024 Santens2024 ChappelleWuTang2024

It’s Like when Hillary was running in 2016 Bernie supporters refused to back HillaryClinton

We’ll settle when the primary’s over. But for now it’s a coin flip between Tulsi and writing in Andrew Yang.

MacaulayKong

A great way to guarantee a Trump victory.

I trust that Yang will canvas for whomever becomes the Dem candidate and move his supporters to vote for that person.

It won’t hurt in the primary as long as one is ok w/ front runners. We deserve to vote for the candidate who inspired us to vote, become politically active and/or donate for the 1st time OR switch parties to vote for him. I will vote blue in Pres election. StillVotingForYang

Well I figure this way, if they want Trump in 4 more years don’t vote Democratic, & don’t gripe .

What a lot of people don’t get is if he’s out of the election, than voting for him doesn’t make any difference. It’s a mistake Bernie supporters made last election. They wrote him in but it didn’t count because only pre- approved candidates can be successfully written in.

It took him quitting for me to take a closer look at Yang and now I kind of wish he was still in the race...regardless, I will support the Dem nominee but Yang was fresh, a la Bernie 2016

Assholes

Whatever. Just as despicable as Bernie Brats.

scottsantens StillVoteYang because SuspendedNotEnded

So I'm going to hold my breath & kick my gert until I get my way.

AndrewYang you must speak out against this to the cult you've created. If you really care about the country you can't let your 'gang' throw their votes away to Trump- I've heard many say they plan to do exactly that in Nov. This is NOT just about primaries. StillVotingYang

I have no desire to vote for anyone other than AndrewYang. That is where my heart is, so that is where my vote is. Hello Democracy! StillVotingYang

It's the old thing of the 4 year olds throwing a tantrum when they don't get exactly the lollipop they want. It's been the same immaturity that brought us Trump and will ultimately bring down democracy in the US.

StillVotingYang

No one else has earned my vote. Dnc should not take votes for granted

Yeah, sure. They'll vote for whoever wins.

I'm not refusing to back his rivals, I'm refusing to blindly back a party that tampers with elections and refuses to speak up about the blatant media blackout of candidates. StillVotingYang YangMediaBlackout

To those being outraged about StillVotingYang,they dont get that the Yanggang arent just made up of democrats. And also, they’re referring to votes in the primaries,not the general. Thats an important distinction.And lastly,once another candidate comes out for UBI truly, then...

StillVotingYang. I like how that sounds

StillVotingYang

Voting for a Democratic candidate who has suspended their campaign, is voting for Trump. You know that right? And staying home on election day is voting for Trump too. Additionally, refusing to accept the fact that your favorite candidatisn't a strong option, is helping Trump.

As long as they vote against Trumpy in the general election

It’s not job to earn clicks from anyone. It’s their job to report news, that is all.

Vote for John Connor!....I mean Andrew Yang!

I hope both of them are happy and ready for camp.

Yang Gangers are the kind of people who keep putting out food for their dog weeks after it died.

StillVotingYang in CA ❤

The hate for Trump and wanting our government to function normally should be enough for everyone. 🤷🏿‍♂️ I love Yang however, I'm not going to waste my vote like the Bernie Bros did in 2016 either. I want Trump out!! VoteBlueNoMatterWho

Ask them in October 🤣

🧢

It’s a good thing he got out now. The response of his cult members tells me all I need to know about him.

StillVotingYang

Loving this. StillVotingYang might give AndrewYang the biggest exposure he never got whilst running that he deserved! Newsweek has actually been fair to Yang whilst rest have shown the middle finger. Will sub then for this instance.

still in the game StillVotingYang StillVotingForYang

StillVotingForYang folks are giving Trump another four years!

I've been disengaged in politics all my adult life. I'm now 42. The reason for my present political engagement is because of Andrew Yang's policies. The other candidates need to start adopting Yang's policies or they can get this 🖕 StillVotingYang

Silly people, Andrew Yang is a nice man with a future in politics but he is finished as a 2020 candidate. Accept reality and find another candidate you like.

We will not be vote shamed into supporting other candidates. StillVotingYang

This was expected. We know they won't vote for no one else.

As a Yang supporter I get this for the primary for some people but for the 2020 election? Really?

So it isn’t a referendum on Trump for them? Just another “I’ll show you” move.

I am StillVotingYang unless I decide to vote Trump. Trump winning means Yang gets a shot at the presidency sooner.

Facts Please! MATH. sus·pend /səˈspend/ past tense: suspended; past participle: suspended 1. temporarily prevent from continuing or being in force or effect. StillVoteYang

I’m with Bernie but miss AndrewYang already! Thanks for all you did to drag UBI into the light.

You got that right! StillVotingYang

Thank you Newsweek! Cancelled WashingtonPost and subscribed to you a few days ago. You seem to be the among the very few news outlets left who are covering actual news with objectivity.

Can we trend something nice about Newsweek? Why on earth would anybody give hard earned cash to NYT given their treatment of Andrew? CancelNYT

So we get trump. Way to go team!

Directly empower the people by putting money directly into the hands of the people. Period. Yang is right, even if his campaign is suspended.

kathrynacullen The thing I hate about AndrewYang is that he keeps feeding me all the delicious policies and great ideas. Now I can't go back to these clowns trying to give me 💩 . So yeah you bet I'ma be StillVotingForYang

The Bernie Ego redo—Version 2020.

YangVets StillVotingYang

Face it. There are a whole bunch of ignorent, spiteful Democrats out there, too. Republicans do not hold this monopoly.

It’s a very tiny tiny tiny tiny group, mainly in California so meh....they can still vote Yang if it satisfies their poor ignorant brain.

Sad to see dropouts leave Dem primary but whoever comes in first, the winner, must get the dropouts votes! If this doesn't happen, their supporters aren't totally aware what's at stake in the Nov election! TrumpNotFitForOffice TrumpMustGo GOPBetrayedAmerica PutinsPuppets

Good for them.

StillVotingYang i will never vote for communist. math maga

StillVotingYang guys 🤷

Here we go.

This ignorant sort of thinking helped Trump win last time (Bernie supporters voting Trump instead of Hilary?) and it’s the same nonsensical BS that could help him win yet again. Stupid people always ruin everything for everyone else.

This is what got us trump ... come on people ...

Then you’ll re-elect Trump

There are more idiots in this country than I thought 🤦‍♀️

What if he were Secretary of Commerce?

AOC admitted that M4A is dead. They are hoping for a public option at best. BernieSanders campaign is such a mess. Meanwhile, FJG is still a thing... BernieSanders

AndrewYang U need to talk to these folks sir.

This!

Thank you for bringing this out to the public!

DHotwheelz heyyyo they got that tweet f yours on Newsweek brah!!!! 👌👌👍👍

He may be a Vice President candidate on on the cabinet. Please don’t contribute to Trump’s staying in office. Yang should publicly speak out against this.

Ok. More importantly, are they going progressives down the ballot?

Giving Trump 4 more years

Noooooo

I love Amy but I will VoteBlueToEndThisNightmare VoteBlue VoteBlueNoMatterWho2020

There's a five-decade-high-income inequality and people are working harder and more hours for less money. Berni Sanders is the only candidate that seems to understand this cannot continue.

You mean the Republican trolls?

This shit again? Welcome to 4 more years of trump.

Ayye!!

RitaLove70 I'm loving you more and more Newsweek :).

Blah blah blah. Same old same old.

A lot of his supporters are former Bernie supporters, so this does not come as a surprise. Let's never forget these people.

My way or high way. Bernie Bros will be the same. A great win for Trump

People, if there's any other candidate now in the race that would lean towards a universal income, its BernieSanders .

Good idea

Please people vote blue

He was always dead last so your vote probably don't matter

This thinking will get Trump another 4 years.

Thank you NewsWeek. You are the most pro-Yang news and we love it?
