Good post.

In regards to #2, the city suffered horribly on 9/11 and he says something stupid like that? Democrats have warped brains. But we already knew that.

What if....just WHAT IF....

....they don’t end up having one?????????????

They don’t have a viable candidate today. If PDJT continues like he has, who is going to WANT TO TRY????? You know he’ll troll you, you’d need to be an incredibly strong candidate. Everyone so far, any established politician, has lost to him. He has a 100% win record.

If they do have a candidate I can’t imagine it’d be anything more than a show - I can’t see “wild support” for whomever it might be. Plus, it’ll HAVE TO BE some FAR FAR LEFT candidate, that is all that is left of the democratic party.

“If O’Rourke wins (unlikely), they man nominate him.”

If Beto pulls it off I could see that happening. What other Hispanic candidates are there who happen to be Irish?

Unfortunately I think Cruz just might manage to lose the election, as challenging as this would be. I’m counting on Trump to pull Cruz over the finish line in spite of himself.

Whoever it is, the ramp-up to the election will be the greatest ever for political advertisements. Showing politicians, in their own voices, abandoning any semblance of due process or justice to enact their own political ends.

Nah. White males need not apply from this point on.

Well, only self-flagellating, self-hating, perpetually apologizing, groveling-in-the-dirt white males, who promise to be a rubber stamp for the leftist genocidal agenda.

Yep. The “black” card still has quite of bit of playability in it in certain quarters.

I know who they WON’T nominate: a white straight male. So that puts a lot of people out of the picture.

All the harpies who have ever tried to assail Trump have been promptly and unceremoniously dispatched by him as if he were brushing lint off his lapel. Harpies, dismissed! (e.g., pocahontas, kamala, hilary, gillibrand, ocasio)

That leaves the “reluctant” oprah. She will stay aside until the last possible moment. This will happen just before the other candidates eviscerate each other; but soros will forbid that and prevent it at all “CO$T$”.

Oprah it will be.

I would strongly urge the Democrat party to nominate Hillary Clinton

Agreed. She has a lot of experience running for president. She must be getting good at it by now.

Would the Dems nominate an old white man? I’m betting on Warren.

I think it will be “President Kamala.” I already call her that because that is how she sees herself. That isn’t how Willie Brown sees her, though. He just sees scalp.

Scary thing is, as idiotic as she is, she could gather all the votes of the Gullibles and Lefties both. Educating Americans on actual truths of life and Trump’s true accomplishments would be the ONLY way to beat someone like Kamala. You would need a strong media platform that they would actually see.

My bet is Kamala Harris. She will have the CA Delegation and she is a vicious conniving politician. The Republicans would be smart to fear her and work to head her off early in the process.

Ditto

I think most of the Dem strategists who matter are holding out for another 0bama, a relatively unknown figure (hence without a background he or she can be held accountable for) who makes one single breakout speech and is vaulted by the efforts of the media to a position of political prominence. The problem is that as the author points out, time is running out for that. Whoever does run will be running against Trump and incumbency, and that's an uphill battle.

Maybe a sacrificial lamb such as Dole or McCain was for the Republicans? That has a problem too, because Trump isn't an establishment figure, and hasn't been coerced into becoming one, and the advantage for the 0bama/McCain ticket was that the Dems won either way. Such a figure could, however, form a core around which an updated Dem party might be built, to be later discarded in favor of someone a little shinier. I'd place Cuomo in that category at the moment, perhaps even Bloomberg, who helps solve the funding issues that put the DNC into Hillary's pocket in '16. Harris is an outside possibility (all of them are, to be candid) who isn't viewed as a "uniter", meaning unity of everyone covered under the current version of identity politics that's shackling the Democrat party to the radicals. Shriekers, yes, union rank and file, no. And so there we have the third problem: nearly all the current possible candidates have been caught by the Dems' lurch toward the left and away from the working class. Of all of those only Bernie has a track record of making the right noises, and despite him being an old white male who once again isn't actually a Democrat, he still has a chance and some political legitimacy. That will tell you how weak the bench really is.

At the moment it will be up to the most influential wing of the Democrat party to decide: the media. That's who to watch.
