PDPGuy: Its actually the no hope candidates that are helping to ruin the legacies of Obama. I will now see how they will turn around to say Obamas/Democrats policies are good, when they were the ones who openly criticized it in public When we say Dems are clueless this just proves it 11 Likes 3 Shares |

PDPGuy: ...so far...just like what happened during the crowded republican presidential debates in 2015...i just don't see any of these democrats candidates as presidential...which is rather unfortunate for the democratic party... |

The corrupt lunatic dems are up to their shenanigans again. They have wiped the records of Kamala Harris arrest records as attorney general of California. There's no doubt she is one of the chosen candidates of the corrupt establishment to enthrone their curroptocracy in the US https://freebeacon.com/politics/california-removes-arrest-reports-from-kamala-years/ 9 Likes 1 Share

raumdeuter:And when one of either Harris, Warren, or Sanders clinches the nomination, Trump would waste no time in using the attacks from the no-hopers on his campaign ads. He would say “If they openly attack their former president and his policies, then why should you vote for them”. Yes, some Republican candidates attacked the legacy of George Bush 43, but those attacks were, at best tepid, or limited to the Iraq war quagmire. None of them went on a broadside on his entire legacy as president. |

Trump has withdrawn the nomination of Rep Ratcliffe for Director of National Intelligence... His next pick would likely be Rep Devin Nunes, who has served on the House Intel committee for the last two years. Plausibly, Nunes has significantly more experience with intel issues than Ratcliffe. |

I don't think a politician had ever pulled these sizes of Trump Rally crowds in the history of US. Democrats can win this election only by rigging, so Repubs and Trump Campaign had better beware as many on the left are on a do or die mission to evict Trump from the White House. 11 Likes 2 Shares |

PDPGuy: I love a fair contest and it pains me to see the Dems in this type of clueless disarray Try to give Trump a fair fight. Let me tell you With Socialist Sanders and Warren, Trump wont even need to campaign. He will simply ask the voters, Do you want to be a Socialist/Communist country like Eastern Europe Venezuela, Cuba Russia? Harris is a joke. Biden is the only worthy opponent, If dems start trashing Obama well good luck in 2024 as they can forget 2020 5 Likes 3 Shares |

raumdeuter: You can’t be too sure whether the key Midwest/Rust belt voters wouldnt be receptive to the progressive policies of Medicare-For-All, and the elimination (or significant reduction) of student loan debt. People in those areas are not big fans of the current sick-care system and the high burden that student loans are putting on millennials (and some Gen Xers). Last week, I read a story about a man, in the US, who was presented with a hospital bill of $500,000 for treatment of his coma. Now, how would that man pay off that huge cost? It’s impossible! But with a Medicare-For-All system, which will be paid for by a slight increase in taxes, nobody would ever go bankrupt due to massive healthcare costs. With regard to Biden, most of his support comes from elderly voters within the party, with those under 40 mostly supporting either Warren, Sanders or Harris. If the Dems want to turn out their liberal base (which largely stayed home in the swing states in 2016), they would need as many under 40 voters as they can muster by offering them a true progressive roadmap for the country. And I don’t see Biden as the guy who would motivate the liberal base to turn out enmasse in 2020. |

Per the Washington Examiner, the candidates have qualified for the September 12 (and possibly 13th) debate: Sanders, Biden, Harris, Warren, Booker, Buttigieg, Klobuchar, and O’Rourke. The likes of Castro, Yang, and Tulsi Gabbard, are 1,1, and 3 polls away, respectively, from qualifying for the debate. |

That ASAP or whatever he's called should thank Kanye West first, then go ahead and thank President Trump. He'd have remained in that Prison room while his fans keep masquerading the whole place with #FreeASAP or #FreeRocky...... Tho his Ego won't allow him to publicly acknowledge the protagonist behind his temporary release but he should do so privately. Them 4 show am pepper! 11 Likes 2 Shares |

Temple1288: Trump had zero influence in the release of ASAP. Trump tried to intervene in the matter, but the Swedish PM warned him that Sweden’s judiciary is completely independent. The decision to free Rocky ASAP was made solely by a Swedish judge. |

Blues00: They showed up in 2016! But the people who outnumbered them were people who forgot about voting for a very long time, they're called THE SILENT MAJORITY.. Those SILENT MAJORITY are also around the Democrats, They're in Hollywood, they're in the inner cities (they know Trump is working hard) but out of fear of being treated like they don't exist they'd prefer to stay silent and most times identify as Democrats.. If someone who's been in Government for so long talks about problems that the country's been facing (which they helped create) , I think the person should be ashamed.. You'd be surprised that in 2020 Trump might even win in New York.. 11 Likes 2 Shares |

Blues00: Medicare for all and elimination of student loans who will pay for it? Maybe add reparations to it. The talking points for the socialist liberals. Is basically for more govt spending, Explain how govt will pay for free these things for all. Maybe those who Biden appeals to are the realistic people not the "woke" people living in nirvana The people who swung the elections for Trump are not the young people in cali and New York, they are the forgotten blue collar workers in the rust belt. Do you think a blue collar worker wants to hear that govt will increase his taxes to make college that he did not go to free or reduced student loan? An education is an investment in yourself and like every investment you need to put money into it. College education is not compulsory for everyone. Why should govt subsidize college education and not the blue collar guy opening a plumbing business or carpenter or the cable guy. 2 friends graduate free high school, one decide to go to college, one decides to be a blue collar, explain why the second one should have his tax dollars used to give his friend an education 6 Likes 1 Share |

raumdeuter: Well, most of the money to be used to wipe out student loan debt/make public college free, and pay for universal healthcare coverage, will come from tax hikes on Wall Street trading and the multi millionaires and billionaires. But I’m sure that if you ask the carpenter to choose between (a) a system that could bankrupt him even if he has private health insurance or (b) a system that wouldn’t bankrupt him, but cost him a little more in taxes: which one do you think he would pick? |

Blues00: Why do Democrats always look to punish success? The wall street billionaire we rail about, went to the same high school as us, only that he studied hard got into ivy league schools, took risks and became a millionaire. So why should he be the one to pay for those of us who couldn't put the hard work he did into his life. This billionaire in wall street, he did not go to free college before becoming a billionaire. so why does he need to pay to make college free for others. This sense of entitlement to another person's hard earned income is what I don't get about liberals America was founded on putting in hard work, taking risks and when you make money keep it for yourself and your family It's been proven that excellence comes when you encourage people to keep their money. Good luck getting the next wall street or silicon valley risk taking guy when you tell them upfront that govt will take the bulk of their income to pay for free college 9 Likes 4 Shares |

raumdeuter: Eliminating most of the loopholes billionaires and multi-millionaires use to pay as little tax as possible, seems fair to me. BTW, tuition-free public college/university would cost an estimated $70 billion/year, which is only 10% of the Pentagon budget for this year. So, money could be moved from the DOD to fund this program without even raising taxes. |

Blues00: Is there anybody anywhere in the world who wouldn't take advantage of beneficial situations? Why should a billionaire pay one cent more than he has to? I think don't you pay more in taxes? The mandatory tax percentages only stipulate the minimum you must pay, if you would like the government to have more of your money you are free to pay above mandated percentages. However, it reeks of jealousy and envy to want to shame and force others to pay more than they are required. Bernie is always shouting about how top earners pay less than they should, yet he's payed ng the minimum and he's a millionaire. Help us ask him why he's not giving government the 70% he's advocating the top 1% pay? Bloody hypocrite 5 Likes 1 Share |

Blues00: They give them those tax breaks because they take risks, create jobs. Those tax breaks are available for you and I too, if we put ourselves through what those wall street guys did to become millionaires All we need to do is study hard instead of partying, get perfect SAT scores, get into ivy league business school, graduate with good grades, get into wall street and you get your own tax break. Don't you pay as little tax as possible? Have you or any of the democratic candidates offered to pay more and IRS rejected the money? So it's reasonable to take money from national security that affects everyone to fund colleges that are optional? You are only able to sit in the comfort of your house and make money, have a family etc because some people are taking care of national security You haven't told me why the welder, truck driver and plumber shouldn't get free money to set up his business too Should we also take 70bn to create free blue collar business or its only people that go to college they count in an economy 4 Likes 1 Share |

raumdeuter: Am not a fan of Trump one bit..I dont like him at all. but I support you on this 100%..I do not like socialism one bit.socialism is evil and people like Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren should be throw into fire..Sanders is always fighting against "rich people" while himself is rich.It isnt their fault that they are rich.. My believe is this,The government should be able to help you so that you can help yourself..Not giving you handouts every now and then..If you want to go to school,you must be able to pay for it yourself and nothing else.If you can't..You get a student loan which you pay back yourself over a cause of years..These things ain't free and you should be able to do it for yourself..
