Biden feels the push to take on Trump in 2020
ABC ^ | 09/03/18 | DES MOINES

Posted on 09/04/2018 3:04:48 AM PDT by ZeroToHero

Shortly after Joe Biden boarded a recent flight from Washington to New York, a string of passengers began stopping at his seat in coach to deliver some version of the same message: Run, Joe, run. "We're with you," one said, according to a Democratic strategist who happened to be on the plane and witnessed the scene. "You've got to do this," said another.

Biden himself is more conflicted — but he is listening keenly to the supporters pushing him to run for the White House in 2020. Biden is convinced he can beat President Donald Trump, friends and advisers say, and he has given himself until January to deliberate and size up potential competition for the Democratic nomination, according to people who have spoken to the former vice president about his decision-making.

Yeah! There’s just a “groundswell” of support for Mr. Fingers. Uh, huh.

Would make it more fun if he chose HILLARY as his running mate, and they had a major invsestigation all through the process.

“Biden is convinced he can beat President Donald Trump..”

Excellent news. Let them nominate another old white guy. It will tear what’s left of the Democrat Party to pieces.

IDIOTS have convinced this foot in mouth assclown that he can beat TRUMP!

I believe Biden would've beaten TRUMP in 2016 since Democrats in PA, MI & WI would've stuck with Biden than take a chance with TRUMP

It won't happen in 2020 though, Democrats have seen the performance of TRUMP, they like what he has done & there is no way they will switch to Biden now

Biden had his chance but he was too gutless to stand up to Hillary, now he has no chance! LOL

True, but I think Joe would rather choose a 6 year-old girl for that role.

Go, slow Joe, GO!!!

Here’s the dream ticket: Slow Jow, Hillary, Feauxcohontas, Bernie the three House owning “justice for all” Sanders and Kamalamamaboomboom in the primaries destroy each other. The 2020 general is Trump vs Hillary round two and President Trump rolls over her with 25 MORE electoral votes than in 2016!!

“Excellent news. Let them nominate another old white guy. It will tear what’s left of the Democrat Party to pieces.”

GMTA - have posted similar to this a couple of times. As others have noted, this could cause a severe popcorn shortage. I don’t see a winning possibility for the donks, at least among the potential candidates the fake news keeps running out as trial balloons, anyway.

As much fun as that would be, (Stand up Chuck, It’s a three letter word, J-O-B-S, He’s articulate, clean.) I don’t think the Democrats will ever nominate another straight white guy again.

It’s too easy to call your opponent a racist, sexist, homophobe, transphobe, than to have a real debate.

"Biden himself is more conflicted...."

Now there's an understatement! That billion dollars of equity the PRC handed your son to manage while you were making a state visit has got "conflict" written all over it.

With your pedo tendencies Joe the chance of your election is somewhere between slim and none.

The left wing of the party won’t go for it.

Joe Biden is perhaps the best possible throw away for 2020. Tump is a shoe in as long as the American Press does not collude against him.

“The left wing of the party won’t go for it.”

Since they openly got rid of the blue collar folks, and with Blacks and others leaving, that left wing has got to comprise about 95% of the party by now.

Such magnificent leaders like Occasional Cortex, Pelosi and let’s not forget Mad Max Maxine Waters are at the reins. So much insanity packed into just three of them.

All the old ‘egos’ that haven’t produced 1% of what Trump did in his first year.

Clintoon, Kerry, Biden et al.

Trump would win in a landslide.
