Washington Gov. Jay Inslee announces 2020 presidential bid
CNN ^ | March 1, 2019 | Dan Merica

Posted on 03/01/2019 6:42:56 AM PST by Trump20162020

Washington state Gov. Jay Inslee announced Friday that he is running for President, launching a bid in which he intends to make combating climate change the central rationale for his campaign.

Inslee announced the bid in a video made public on Friday. He is slated to hold a news conference in Seattle at a solar panel installer to expand upon his presidential announcement. He will be surrounded by friends, family and business owners who the campaign says have benefited from his climate policies in the state.

"I'm Jay Inslee and I'm running for president because I am the only candidate who will make defeating climate change our nation's number one priority," the governor says in a more-than-a-minute-long video that highlights his decades-long focus on climate change and compares tackling the issue to President John F. Kennedy's focus on going to the moon.

The second largest stadium in the world and biggest in the US is Michigan Stadium seating 107,601. Will that be big enough to hold all of the democrat candidates come election time?

Just an excuse to put his hat out, accepting donations. It sorta legalizes your graft.

Clearly the Democrats are all trying to out-left each other! Ordinary American's are already shaking their heads in disbelief!

Man, I’m liking this! One more idiot added to the “I’m the best communist” show. Keep ‘em coming; the circular firing squad is going to be entertaining.

I’m sure we’ll get to see just how big AOC’s ego really is. Will she or won’t she?

Pushing Global Warming? Yeah, because if he can sell the country on Solar Panels and Wind Mills, he will make a lot of MONEY. It is the old story about “following the money”. That is what Global Warming is all about.

Hahahaha....

Well, it is the state of Washington with all those fruits and nuts?

One more idiot who thinks he has something which will shine on the national stage. Do these goofy folks actually get out and talk to working people once in a while? Didn't think so.

She won't. You have to be 35 to be President.

What am I thinking? By election time every Democrat will be running. And to the surprise of no one there will be millions of more people on the ballot than candidates.

My cousins live in Seattle. They just got 20 inches of snow. That is probably more than all the snow they have seen since moving there in 1969.

The governor should maybe fix that area first before he tackles tougher places like here in Minnesota where it has been below zero forever.

The first debate should take place in a recently-reopened Insane Asylum!
