What Kind of Democrat Can Beat Trump in 2020?
The New York Times ^ | November 2, 2018 | Frank Bruni

Posted on 11/03/2018 2:17:04 AM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

Corey Lewandowski managed Donald Trump’s presidential campaign for a year, co-wrote a book about it and keeps in close touch with Trump, as we were reminded last month, when The Times reported on a physical altercation between him and John Kelly, the White House chief of staff, just outside the Oval Office.

So I figured that his thoughts about the best Democrat to take on Trump in 2020 were as germane as anybody’s.

He told me that Mike Bloomberg worried him, because Bloomberg’s personal wealth would spare him the distraction of fund-raising, and that Joe Biden had the right instinct when he said that if he and Trump had gone to high school together, he would have “beat the hell out of him.”

He noted that Beto O’Rourke, the Senate candidate in Texas, had impressively crossed the threshold of celebrity. Andrew Gillum, the candidate for governor in Florida, had caught lightning, too....

I never heard of the reverse image search before. It’s a good resource.

Now having posted many memes on FR — and those memes are indexed on Google Search, I could not find those images using that method.

So apparently Google’s machine learning in this case doesn’t go too deep. If I had supplied a hint like “poconopundit” they would have found it.

An honest one who loves America. And doesn’t pander to lunatic fringes like homos, cross-dressers, urban ferals, muslimes, and man-hating womyn. And who rides a flying unicorn ... because that’s a myth too.

That’s the same image of Stalin I used, but smaller. Am I missing something?

Cost of Being Mayor? $650 Million, if He’s Rich

An analysis by The New York Times shows that Mr. Bloomberg has doled out at least $650 million on a wide variety of perks and bonuses, political campaigns and advocacy work, charitable giving and social causes, not to mention travel and lodging, connected to his time and role as mayor. (His estimated tab for a multiday trip to China, with aides and security in tow: $500,000.)

In the process, he has entirely upended the financial dynamics surrounding New York’s top job.

In the past, the city paid its mayor; Mr. Bloomberg paid to be the city’s mayor.

https://www.nytimes.com/2013/12/30/nyregion/cost-of-being-mayor-650-million-if-hes-rich.html

With $46 Billion in the bank, this guy can REALLY spend A LOT of money on any presidential campaign. Sucker spent over $650 million just to be mayor. Even spending $5 Billion may not be beyond him for a presidential campaign. That can literally buy a lot of votes.

Hmmmm....

When I posted, your photo link had a 404 error and did not appear in your post.

Now your photo appears in your post.

I’ll blame it on OwlGore & Zuckerberg for creating & controlling the net.

Easy. They need an appropriate “vessel” like Obama that they can run a liberal cabal behind.

Possibly your connection timed out and so the 404? But yes they are to blame - especially Suckerberg and his wife’s mainland Chinese family and allies in the Politburo.

Barron should stay where he is it is a great school and has a very good high school. Don’t move him if not necessary.

No, actually she’s likely drunk, seizing and on the floor screeching (at any given moment).
