That's incorrect. I do not have a blond pompadour. Although I have thought about getting a golden retriever. Which I will start a GoFundMe page for.

And the winner of tonight's Democratic Candidates Debate was ... Donald Trump! :D

While I think voters in general are distressed at the situation at the border and do not like the image of America that “the wall” projects I don’t think they want the same benefits and rights for illegal immigrants that citizens receive. Here in NY we had a true blue wave last November, the Dems swept the state legislature in formally rock solid republican suburban long island. The democrats passed new law allowing illegal immigrants to get divers licenses. The Long Island democrat state legislatures voted unanimously vote against the law because they knew their constituents won’t go for it. Reparations was briefly mentioned once in the debate but that will backfire on them if they nominate a candidate that supports it.

That is why Biden emerged as the early front runner, it is not because voters love him or think he would be good president. He is or was the true anti Trump and anti woke candidate. But he is flailing, unsure of how to be or unable to be both the candidate of bringing back “normalcy” and not seem hopelessly retrograde.

Some interesting history. I wonder if Kamala Harris is the only presidential candidate now running with ancestors who owned slaves.

Slave Registers from London Name The Slaves Kamala Harris’ Ancestor Owned

Democrat presidential candidate Kamala Harris is descended from Irish slave owner Hamilton Brown, the namesake of Brown’s Town in Jamaica, who recruited massive numbers of Irish migrants to Jamaica to work on his sugar plantations after the British empire abolished slavery.

First one to go? The party leadership must be desperate to thin out the herd at this point.


Hickenlooper campaign in shambles
Senior staffers asked the former Colorado governor to drop out of the presidential race and run for Senate.

Former Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper’s senior team urged him last month to withdraw from the presidential race gracefully and run for Colorado’s Senate seat or pursue other opportunities, a source familiar with the situation told POLITICO.

The source said that the campaign only has about 13,000 donors, making it almost impossible to qualify for the next round of presidential debates in the fall. The campaign also only raised just over $1 million in the second quarter — about what he raised in the first 48 hours of his candidacy — and will likely run out of money completely in about a month.

Doesn't seem all that desperate, since Hickenlooper had no business running anyways, they're right he'd be better off running for senate. Also there are like 20 candidates so there's still plenty left even without him.

White. Male. Businessperson. Isn't enough of a leftist because he only wants "somewhat" bigger government and he failed to get a huge tax increase past the Colorado voters. He never stood a chance in the democratic party. Perhaps if he redefined himself.

Trade gap widened last month despite tariffs..

and the globalist FAAG sided with the protectionist Trump earlier.. that means consumer sentiment in china might start to slowly shift away on us brands in general.



"The biggest threat to America right now is not government spending, huge deficits, foreign ownership of our debt, world terrorism, two wars, potential epidemics or nuts with nukes. The biggest long-term threat is that people everywhere are becoming and have become disheartened, that this condition is reaching critical mass, and that it afflicts most broadly and deeply those members of the American leadership class who are not in Washington, most especially those in business."

Billionaire Tom Steyer to join crowded 2020 presidential race

Billionaire environmentalist Tom Steyer is planning to launch his campaign for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination, a report said Sunday.

The 62-year-old Steyer — who toyed with the idea of running in the past — held a private conference call last week to tell people close to him that he was planning to run, according to Politico.

I want to see Clinton vs Trump again.


Me too!! !! ! I just want to see how debates would go. I really want to see if any of the following would come up:

Trump: See, I was right, I won the election 4 years ago, like I told you I would
Hillary: But look at all those horrible things you were doing as a president

Quite frankly, I am confused why it sounds like Hillary chose not to run. I really hope she reconsiders.

I don't want her to run; the fact that she lost to Trump tells me that she's not a viable candidate.

This is very cynical: but should the Democratic candidate be Hispanic----or his/her running mate be Hispanic----there's a better chance that the Democrats will carry Florida. Carrying Florida, in my view, will give the Democrats a much better chance in 2020.

And if the Democrats carry the "usually blue" states that the Republicans carried in 2016, then it's a done deal for the Democrats.

One in, one out.


Eric Swalwell becomes first 2020 Democrat to drop out

Eric Swalwell is abandoning his presidential bid, becoming the first of 25 Democratic presidential hopefuls to exit the race.

Swalwell, 38, a California congressman known for his frequent cable television appearances, is due to hold an afternoon press conference to announce his decision, according to the Los Angeles Times.

CNN, which is hosting the next round of democratic debates in Detroit on July 30 and 31, has informed the various campaigns that, “There will be no show of hands or one-word, down-the-line questions.”

Huh, why would CNN want to remove some of the most interesting and revealing elements from their upcoming events?

That's because those questions instantly generated a flood of embarrassing memes all over the net. :D

Replace the word "communists" with "neoliberals" and you've got yourself a meme. Are their people on the right who actually believe this s**t? "Communists?" f****n' hell, they're not even liberals! Ha!

the amount of people who don't know what communism is is quite staggering
