Condoleeza Rice as president would own the Libs more than Trump in 2024

I don't know what you mean by "own". I think a lot of Democrats would support her. Even the very liberal would like her more than Trump.

You know that would stick in their crawl

Condoleeza Rice is too moderate and too intelligent for today's Republicans.

Wrong President. This is how people treat God likes. Nobody cried when Trump won or loss. We just defend a person that had to put up with a lot of b.s. from all sides that NO President had to put up with. If Obama had to deal with what Trump dealt with, this would be call a KKK nation.

He could end up being another Ross Perot. The question is this. How many Republicans will vote for Condoleeza Rice vs vote for Trump? This is something many people don't think about.

there is NOTHING moderate about Rice's failed foreign policy. Why you call her foreign policy and being against gay marriage moderate it's beyond me.


If you are a NEO CON, you would vote for Rice but the base of the party turned the page and independents in the general are not buying that even if she wears a skirt, has a tan and is an elitist snob. She is a Hillary with a tan.

being part of the Bush mess of a foreign policy and being against gay marriage is too moderate and too intelligent? thanks for the laugh.

Democrats defending McCain, Romney, Liz Cheney and now Rice, you can't make this up. What's next, name a street after Rumsfeld in D.C. and name a school after Dick Cheney in Chicago next to Obama's library.

If the anti-Trump Republicans follow through on their threat to start a third party, Condi could be their candidate.

That didn't work out with Gary Johnson and Bill Weld who were 2 governors (Rice has never been elected even to a dog catcher, she has never been in a ballot)


Funny, how Democrats wish there could be a 3rd party to divide the GOP and think that is going to avoid a Red Wave in 2022.

Funny also about Rice, Rice gave a speech at the 2000 GOP convention saying "... America's armed forces are not a global police force. They are not the world's 911. She is a liar and incompetent.. Any opponent all has to do is play that video over and over and they don't even have to debate her.


A moderate? LOL you Democrats and anti-Trumsters take the joke too far.

Didn't Obama went to Cuba and sat with a dictator to watch a baseball game and wanted to lift the embargo? that isn't sucking up to a dictator? Didn't Biden bent the knee to Communist China who's economy makes Russia into a 3rd world country joke? didn't Bill Clinton sucked up to North Korea by giving them 4 billion dollars in aid?

Thanks for the laugh.
Trump couldn't even end the wars in the Middle East so your argument is flawed

I voted for Gary Johnson in 2016, and Jo Jorgensen in 2020. I could be persuaded to vote 3rd party once more, if Condoleezza Rice was the candidate.

ending and starting/expanding are 2 different things.


When Trump decided to bring troops home from Afghanistan and Germany, Pelosi and Democrats in the house with Liz Cheney passed resolutions to stop him and throw a wrench in financing his budget if he didn't backed down.

That's a better move that Trump's needs more votes in Congress than doubling down on the wars and say we need to be there forever like Rice keeps selling. But Trump is the extremist and Rice the moderate. Try again because you keep grasping at straws.
