Girlfriend! HA! Brown was married at the time. That makes her his mistress. Or worse.

The only chance the Dims have at beating Trump (and it’s a very very small chance) is to nominate one of the “moderates” of their party i.e. Clinton or Biden. If they go hard left (which they probably will) they’re going to get clobbered.

I know the electorate has changed since 1972 when Nixon won 49 states and in 1984 when Reagan won 49 states, but even today there’s no way a socialist is going to be elected president. Even Obama had to run to the center to get elected the first time.

I believe the 20+ Dems running are not about winning, but are about starting a campaign, doing gofundme or other money raising schemes, putting their families on the payroll and keeping as much money as they can when they loose.

Also gives them plenty of publicity and virtual signalling opportunities like the New Green Deal.

Hmm. So she didn’t do the “Capistrano” apparently? Or, maybe “lack” of talent?

Don’t know why you put quotes around “disrespect” because that word is nowhere in the article. When I saw the word “shade” in the title I knew that some people might see it as racist, but it’s a perfectly good word and I don’t have a problem with it.

"...speaking ghetto / throwing shade..."


Excellent post, yldstrk.
I thought the very same thing while reading the headline moments ago.
No need to emulate speech and phrases favored by morons.

It’s stupid, it’s a stupid use of the word and the “shade” means “disrespect” which is also a horse manure word and we are not required to “respect” everyone and everything. Respect is earned. Period.

Exactly!

I had to look it up. All these "hip" writers (I have no idea what the current 'hip term is for 'hip') are too inexperienced to realize that most 'hip' terminology has a limited shelf life.

In point of fact, he was separated, and I have no understanding of people who make such a huge deal out of a financial arrangement, which is what a government marriage license confers.

No chance with Clinton but Biden might have a shot.

Don’t forget Bloomberg. He’s not getting a whole lot of attention, but I’m sure his formally entering the race would get a lot of dems excited.

Brown is 100% correct. There is not one Democrat that can presently beat POTUS, Donald J. Trump in the upcoming 2020 POTUS election.

Warren, Booker, Harris, Biden, Clinton, Klobuchar, etc., etc., are all toast, from the starting gate, no...sorry, they are all burnt toast from the starting gate, no....they are melted burnt toast from the starting gate, morons & buffoons, one and all.

Side bar to folks from Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, and beyond....get your butts over to El Paso, Texas, Monday evening, February 11, 2019 to attend “The Trump Political Rally” being held there and support our great POTUS, Donald J. Trump. Let’s turn out by the tens of thousands and help POTUS, Trump MAGA (Make America Great Again) Be there, folks!!! The current Democrat Party needs to be completely politically destroyed...Amen!!!

I agree, just look at the general mockery that greeted the "Green New Deal" trial balloon. These hard leftists are literally insane. Yes, they really do want to ban air travel, cars and kill cows that fart too much.

I think Biden is going to be the nominee. He's the only one of the bunch I'm tracking that actually has a shot of beating Trump. I know that among us, Biden is a laughingstock but he's the candidate that I fear the most.

You are certainly entitle to your opinion. I choose to not get offended by it, in this case anyway. Isn’t it valid jargon? Writers use jargon all the time.
