That would certainly invite more people to try to cross our borders.

 

It's interesting to me that the Dem candidates are now, without hesitation, making it clear they are for open borders.

 

Good for them. Embrace your true desires, Dems. America is ready for it. Open borders. Medicare for all. Confiscating guns. Late term abortions. And publicly targeting specific people for massive tax hikes because they have too much money.

 

America overwhelming WANT these things. They just don't know it. And you're just the party to show them what they've been missing.

As I've said before; because Dems like Bloomberg are followed by idiots, they assume everyone is an idiot.

He tried to ban soft drinks larger than  16 ounces in NYC while he was mayor.  It was litigated and the Court of Appeals shot him down.  He's called "Nanny Bloomberg" for good reason.

Note: I split off the parts pertinent to President Trump to his re-election post.

Suburban women could decide 2020: Who are they giving to?
 

</snip>
 

Of the dozen Democratic candidates on October’s debate stage, Sen. Bernie Sanders has raised the most money from women since he announced his presidential campaign, with at least $17.1 million — about 40 percent of his funds — coming from women. This number includes large-dollar contributions and small-dollar contributions itemized through ActBlue.
 

Sen. Elizabeth Warren and Mayor Pete Buttigieg, who along with Sanders are top-tier fundraisers, have both raised more than $15 million from women this year. Sen. Kamala Harris, whose fundraising has fallen in recent months, has also raised at least $15 million from women. Both Harris and Warren are getting more cash from women than men.
 

</snip>
 

Although women donors have increased their political giving during the Democratic primaries, not all candidates are receiving the benefits. Rep. Tulsi Gabbard receives the least money from women, has the smallest number of women donors and the lowest percent of contributions coming from women so far this year. Only 24 percent of her funds come from women. Democratic candidate Andrew Yang similarly has low levels of fundraising support from women.

Well, if he's paying me, he can set the rules.

But as a schmo walking the streets of the City, then it becomes very lame, very quick.

....so Mike is back to wearing the Democrat hat?.....has 'em all on his closet shelf...

 

 

 

Bloomberg served as the 108th Mayor of New York City, holding office for three consecutive terms, beginning his first in 2001. A Democrat before seeking elective office, Bloomberg switched his party registration in 2001 to run for mayor as a Republican. He defeated opponent Mark Green in a close election held just weeks after the September 11 terrorist attacks. He won a second term in 2005, and left the Republican Party two years later. Bloomberg campaigned to change the city's term limits law, and was elected to his third term in 2009 as an Independent on the Republican ballot line.

....but he may come across as a tad more rational than the current "Dirty Dozen Cast"......versus socialism, medicare for all, open borders, student debt elimination, etc.......could be interesting.....

Literally, democrats grasping at any straw now...the irrational desperation and hatred

I’ll sprint to the polls to vote for Bloomberg.

 
Otherwise, it’s Trump.

:lol: This will help her poll better with the black community. 

 

 

 

She's gotta be calling Stacey Abrams on the daily trying to get her to be her VP. Probably Booker too.

Seriously?

 

Barack and Michelle Obama.  Kamala Harris.  Corey Booker.  That's four she personally knows.  Then throw in Al Sharpton, Ta Neshi Coates, Colin Kaepernick, Don Lemon...

 

How the hell is that a hard question?

As a white girl who pretends to be a person of color, she cannot distinguish between black people.

Nice framing from the tweet that Sara quoted: "...the surviving son of a presidential candidate."

I would have gone with: "the druggy who was banging his dead brothers widow."

But to each their own.

Impeachment alone does not doom Democrats in 2020. Their ideas also doom them. Their candidates espouse ideas that not only are contrary to the American experience, but contrary to the American ideals.

The primary anti-American idea Democrats espouse is the confiscation of guns. Both Beto O'Rourke and Eric Swalwell made this a major part of their campaign, with the latter flashing our nuclear capabilities as a warning to anyone who would dare defy such an order.

The Second Amendment enforces the First.

Democrats plan to neutralize the First with a ban on hate speech and Beto's call to tax churches.

Next up is reparations to African-Americans for a slavery that ended 154 years ago. Reparations are a repudiation of Martin Luther King's vision of a colorblind society in which all men are equal.

The purpose of Democrats is to divide our nation based on pigmentation and other superficial genetic differences.

This is followed by the promotion of transgendering elementary school-aged children to the opposite sex. This is part of the Democrat Party's promotion of sexualizing children. Too many powerful Democrats boarded Jeff Epstein's Lolita Express to Pedo Island for it not to reflect on the party itself.

Elizabeth Warren meanwhile wants to confiscate the wealth of "billionaires," which she defines as anyone worth $50 million -- or 1/20th of a billion.

Don't worry. Over time that number will drop to whatever your savings have.

With every candidate supporting the elimination of private health insurance in favor of government control of health care, Bernie Sanders find himself out-flanked on his left and separated from his base.

However, he was able to move even further left.

Fox News reported, "Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., on Thursday released a sweeping immigration plan that would impose a moratorium on deportations, 'break up' existing immigration enforcement agencies, grant full welfare access to illegal immigrants and welcome a minimum of 50,000 'climate migrants' in the first year of a Sanders administration.

"The plan effectively establishes Sanders at the far left of the immigration debate, as he aims to energize a base that helped drive his 2016 primary campaign amid competition from other liberal candidates in the field this time around."

Climate refugees!

That phrase combines the Democrat call for open borders with the voodoo science of global warming.

How clever.

And how stupid.

Americans are not going for this.

I ask the more politically experienced hands in here...............

 

Has there ever been a worse pool of candidates in the Democratic Party for the presidential nomination?

1984 springs to mind.  Though it would've been close.
