Bannon: Democrats May Need To Recruit Bloomberg, Michelle Obama, Or Hillary To Beat Trump In 2020
RealClearPolitics ^ | August 11, 2019 | Tim Haines

Posted on 08/14/2019 7:58:08 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

Former Trump campaign manager Steve Bannon told FNC's Maria Bartiromo in an interview on "Sunday Morning Futures" that he doesn't think any of the declared Democratic candidates have the ability to beat President Trump in the 2020 election. Bannon suggests that Democrats may have to recruit Hillary Clinton, Michelle Obama, or Michael Bloomberg to stop Trump from being re-elected.

STEVE BANNON: I said this last week, Maria, I don't see anybody on that stage right now that can take President Trump one on one. I pride myself, he's called me his star pupil, his top pupil, I've been studying this thoroughly and I don't care what the polls say on Biden. Joe Biden is not going to be able to stand up to Donald Trump. He's weak on China, you've seen what he's said the last couple of days. If the Democratic Party thinks that Joe Biden is going to be able to go one-on-one with Donald Trump in the general election campaign they've got another thing coming. He will run the tables on Biden.

Now the second-tier candidates or the other candidates, like Kamala Harris or Elizabeth Warren -- I just haven't seen it on that stage and I certainly haven't seen it in Iowa, where I think they are taking a very unsophisticated approach to China. I just haven't seen it.

The whole world wishes the Clintons would just go away, yet somehow they never do.

Aw, lookie here! Someone wants to bring the clintons back to life...
= = = = = = = =
‘Scary Scenario’:

‘they’ push Chelsea into the Senate and she will be eligible for Pres in 2026.

Maybe that is why she been spitting out all them kids...I originally thought the ‘Clinton Foundation’ had some kind of deal tied in with how many she spits out.

Not really a laugh, remember they tried to prime Caroline K for something but the intelligence side of the gene pool didn’t stretch that far..

It’s scary. America does have enough asinine libtarded and wishy washy middle of the road women and millennitard soy boy voters to pull something off. They vote on emotion and by the last thing they heard on the View,local news or the cesspool of the internet.

> Michelle oZero has ZERO chance of coming even close to beating Trump.

Wrong, Mrs. Obama would easily take down Trump by the fifth round, she has a longer reach and huge biceps.

Nah, I just recognize that the most addictive drug to some of humankind is raw unfettered power over one’s fellows.

Hillary is an addict jonesin’ for just one more fix, she’s more desperate for it than she is for life itself.

As long as she can draw a breath, even if that requires a ventilator, she will be lusting for just one more scrap of control.

Bannon is right—the Dems need a new face and name—Bet they wish they had a Kennedy in the wings. Hillary just is too old—Michelle doesn’t want it. Maybe Kerry could be asked to do the job? Maybe Rommey? Maybe Richardson?

“Bringing someone it at the convention stage is a non-starter.”

yep. that would be the ultimate insider “rigging”, and probably would P.O. legions of die-hard supporters of the various losers who DID go through the primary process, particularly the top 2-3 ... actually, i don’t think it would even be possible because i don’t see how such a last-minute outsider could win enough votes at the convention ...

“The Hollywood elites and the big money donors are done dumping money into a two time loser.”

definitely. that’s actually the main reason that hillary couldn’t win the general election, even if she could win the primary, which isn’t possible without big bucks either ...

“What I do know is this, None of the Current Candidates will be the Nominee.”

Agree, once their hands went up on free healthcare for Illegals, it was over for them, all of them.

But ONE MORE THING must happen - the field must be split going into the Democrat National Convention, for if anyone gets more than 50% of the delegates on the first ballot, they WILL BE the nominee, and Plan B (really Plan A now), will never get a chance to be executed.

So the above CANNOT be allowed to happen. And how is this outcome being prevented? Easy - we all know that the Clintons, and probably others (Obamas, etc.) have HUGE DIRT on every candidate - so they dribble it out once a particular candidate starts to show some life - or they have their friends in the media highlight real-time mistakes and gaffes, which is how they just popped Biden’s balloon.

So, expect more of it. For example, if Camille does start to pull away a bit, we’ll soon be hearing a lot more details about her career as Willie Brown’s mistress. Things like that.

...also, of the three names, he mentions, Skunk Cabbage, Bloomberg, and Michelle, it’s hard to see any of them getting a majority of delegates.

Michelle may be ‘loved’, but without ever accomplishing anything on her own, showing any leadership in anything, and never being on a ballot, they know she’s hopeless.

Bloomberg, I think, will get killed by the hard-left because he kicked ass when it came to making NYC even safer than Rudy made it (in other words, he sent a lot of felons to jail).

And Skunk Cabbage brings back too many bad memories of 2016. She may envision herself riding into the Democrat Convention naked, on a White Stallion, to a heroes welcome, to save the day - but she past the first layer of security if she tried.

So...who then? The names I think of are two has-beens, Algore and John Kerry, and possibly Joe Manchin, who’s already said he’s sick of being in the Senate. But they have a lot more to choose from...people with nowhere near the baggage of the declared candidates or the 3 that Bannon names.

Maybe the idea is to get more Democrats in the race to divide the money pool and the voter base. I say bring them all on. It would be funny to see, after they set rules for the debates about how much money raised and how many individuals contributed. Then the DNC would let new people in the debates, and the race. I could even see a case were the Super delegates at the convention override the regular delegates vote. All hell would break lose from the left.

“Gov. JEB Bush or Gov. Kasich could switch parties and win the Democrat ‘20 nomination. I am not kidding.”

Maybe in the Democrat Party of 50 years ago - but not with these flaming Communists.

As to either or both of them running third party to help the Dems...that’s a whole ‘nother story.

Yup. And she’s ruthless like a honey badger and determined as a hyena.

When she softened her style or had cosmetic work done @Jan. ‘16, I predicted she is planning to run for President within 4 years. She’s a lot like HRC in ambition. And temper. And has a chip on those big shoulders she proudly dispays. I don’t know if she’s a transman or transwoman, but a soft lily she will never be.She made schoolchildren eat miserable lunches their own good because she said so! Not a nice person.
