I don’t think a decision to bring a vote to impeach anyone should be based on how it impacts their re-election bid. I understand why you say/think that. I get it. I still don’t like it. It's Machiavellian, for sure. The times call for that IMO. I wouldn't say it in a world where, even if I disagreed vehemently with the POTUS on policy, he was not actually assaulting most of the underpinnings of our society and place in the world order.

The Evil Genius Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 6 minutes ago, Momma There Goes That Man said: I'm all in on Warren. She looks great for 70 as well and I think the "America's mom looking out for us" type of image is going to play well in the general to coincide with all of fantastic policies. I'd be happy with Warren although she's not my first or second choice. I just wonder if she can really get the people out to vote. Or will the growing anti-Trump movement do that for her? Strategically, a Warren/Tim Ryan ticket would be interesting as it would force the GOP to heavily campaign in Ohio. Edit..the same could be said for Castro and Texas...although the Dems have a better shot at Ohio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Momma There Goes That Man Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Castro is a fraud imo. He's not some hugely popular candidate even in Texas and ran away from statewide elections to protect his resume. And I'm not sure what remains of Tim Ryan's ashes after Al Qaeda got him will make for a good running mate. A Warren/Harris ticket would be strong though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not too worried about him though because he polling at 2% but people should look at his HUD record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ohio probably remains Trump but they can at least scare Trump into spending needed money in Texas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She seems too friendly to him and is prepping for a VP spot. He has some things he is going to have to answer for in his past in addition to his border policy which is already being quoted directly as an open border policy.

Half eaten, moldy, potato! I really want Bernie, Biden might be more popular, but I don't want another centrist democrat. As a black man, I'm proud of Obama, he was a good president, but he tried to please and convalesce the GOP, they straight up refused to even talk to him. Right then, Obama should've tried to steamroll them into oblivion and do whatever he wanted policy wise. I think Bernie is the only "dem" who understands this and won't waste his time on negotiating with an opposing party. 13 minutes ago, twa said: I still think Kamala and some whitebread tbd later.....Pete seems to be struggling , I had hopes he would be it He dissed single payer health care and stumbled on racism.

visionary Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Something to keep in mind, just because a candidate supports or proposes something now, does not mean it will get through Congress in that form or survive judicial scrutiny. I wouldn’t worry too much about some of the more left ideas right now. The Democrats have enough trouble coming together against Trump. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's time to beat Trump, and going Left will NOT do that because the middle will plug their nose and vote for him again or stay home. And if they stay home then the Right wins because the Right actually shows up to vote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
