2020 Presidential Election

Apocalipstic · 07-17-2019, 05:19 PM

I need to read this entire thread...but till I do, a couple of thoughts.

1. A shit house rat would be better than the Cheeto.

2. My current favorite is Elizabeth Warren

3. All of the Democratic Presidents I remember were centrist. I dream of a Socialist Utopia, or at least the programs that LBJ put in place, healthcare and education for everyone and no children in cages.

4. I will vote for whomever the Dems run for President

5. I think Kamala Harris is very elegant and poised...don't see the classless/unstatespersonish angle

6. What the hell is it going to take to get Trump out of there, though, I am not sure Pence would be any better

7. I have heard whisperings that Trump is going to drop Pence for 2020 and run ....Ivanka as VP...

Pence is as much of a right-wing zealot as Trump, maybe worse. Ivanka for VP, unbelievable?! Though, not much can shock me now. Maybe the secret meetings Trump had with Putin were about how to turn a regime into a Plutocracy or Aristocracy. Just kidding roflol.

Socialist utopia? Socialism is no utopia, no government is. They all need much work to succeed, yes?

I agree about Pence, he creeps me out. Who knows what the hell goes on in the secret meetings. I have long suspected they want to be Bond villains and are planning their secret island...but I think we can agree Trump wants to be King.

Utopia is a dream...not possible I agree. Yes, government is a lot of work. It seems that Capitalism, pure Socialism and even Capitalism look good on paper, but you put people in the mix and they are a disaster. A mixture might work, but that puts us back with the Centrists. As a kid I wanted to Communist until I realized they served the same food at every restaurant...on the other hand, I want everyone to have food and shelter and healthcare and education. The US is so huge and diverse it presents problems that smaller populations don't.

Unless Trump switches horses in midstream and picks Ivanka for VP, I think she can kiss any aspirations for public office goodbye at this point!

OMG, I hope so! She has always creeped me out, but her Lotita on the Prarie thing at the G-whatever, flirting with her dad made me sick.

Is she even smart enough to know she's being snubbed I wonder?

How the Hell did a greasy fat-fingured ignorant buffoon come to a position where he can murder tens of millions of people with the wave of his hand.
Americans, as a whole, are responsible for this mess.

Fix this please and stop complaining about "others" opining on the damage that the Government and its policies are inflicting. You're a "world power" and the damage and the incredibly ignorant polices affect us all. This is not just an "American" planet.
