Well, I voted HRC, and I'd vote for Newsom over Trump or Pence, but if the Rs had someone decent I'd really have to consider voting R if he was the candidate.

I'm not won over by looks in a candidate, be they good or bad. Yes, Trump is hideous looking, but if he was a nice guy or at least a competent one, I would have voted for him.

His declining sanity is the biggest threat to Trump. I agree with you... so far, there are no real threats to him outside his own mind.

When lawful people see so much unlawfulness going on, it won't matter what the personality of the candidate is. Question is: "Does the Democratic party have someone who is not communist leaning that agrees with upholding the laws already on the books in this country on immigration, protecting our citizens from foreign threats, having citizens who are responsible for themselves, fair competition in business, and freedom of religion?"

If they don't, they better start looking because the Democratic platform is not acceptable by decent voters.

Calling a genius insane has really become an embarrassment to the Democrats. Just because you are not smart enough to understand his way of thinking doesn't make HIM insane. It is really saying more about your lack of understanding.

Kamala Harris especially. She's meeting with the Clinton donors

She seems like the front runner right now, but the election is a long way off. She checks all the boxes. Female, Black, ultra liberal/progressive. Chuck Schumer, and Cuomo may make a go of it.

He's one of the loons on the far left. Too liberal for me.

Another one I wouldn't vote for.

They better find someone more moderate are they're going to screw themselves out of another election.

Do you really expect anyone but Earl Landgrebe Republicans (Don't confuse me with the facts!) and Alt-Right cultists to have any respect for this president?

Respect is earned, not given. He is a disgrace to the office and is viewed as such outside of the hard core 1 out of 3 voters that support him.

Hell, I didn't think he'd be the nominee in 2016, because I didn't realize how screwed up the party was. But, here we are.
It's going to be Hillary again in 2020. She's not allowing any candidate to "show up" and threaten her clear path back to the presidential election. She's got the money and the DNC is packed with her friends at this point...anyone trying to take that on is going to get hurt.

However anyone that gets in a debate with her can absolutely fry her by asking how long she's had to prepare for the questions.

P.S. I don't see Trump getting out of the primaries in 2020, if he even chooses to run.

Other than the hardcore blue states (CA, OR, WA, NY, MA) I don't see any dem/lib winning anything outside those states. This past election proves that Americans are sick of those leftist idiots that want to riot, smash car windows, shoot cops, burn stuff, vandalize property, block highways, kneel during the national anthem, etc... If lefties keep it up, they might as well stay home in the 2020 election.

She's a blank slate. A puppet. She barely has a voting record!

That's probably why they want to push her, she doesn't have a record that can be held against her, she can run a campaign on sound bytes.
