Perhaps really soon. I honestly can't picture D'ump going quietly after being voted out. I was a little surprised he didn't try to void the election in November.

Normally i would assume you meant antifa. They seem to be the primary source of violence these days. Who did you have in mind?

Berzerker is in heaven. He believes a "true but misleading" statement by her on a forgotten form from decades ago somehow outweighs the 8,000 lies made by Trump in the last two years.
Maybe someday he'll choose to discuss her history and proposals for consumer protections...y'know something that may actually affect American lives.

This must be the dumbest comment I've seen yet and I've seen you post some really bad comments.

Warning: Bald faced lie. The majority of politically motivated violence in the US over the past several years has in fact been perpetrated by right wing hate groups.
I know that most people knew that this post was a lie using other cues, but I think a formal warning system is appropriate since we have no way to prevent the forum being used to spread this kind of outright falsehood.

Good, you have a perfectly good choice in the primaries this time around as well then. Not that it helped last time but even Americans should learn eventually.

I never said she lied more than Trump. It was recently reported she signed a Texas bar registration as American Indian. Sounds like cultural appropriation and gaming affirmative action.
She needs other progressives to drop quickly to have a chance against the centrist candidate. The independent guy from Starbucks may run if the Dems go too far left. I dont know Klobuchar's politics much but I did learn she was a prosecutor, I'm not impressed by people who are paid to lie about others.

Shultz? The “I’m actually just a person of means” Schultz. The “I’m self-made. I grew up in the projects in Brooklyn, New York. I am the American dream. You’re going to criticize me for being successful?” Shultz? He brew all that coffee by himself, did he? Delusional wanker. He should be no threat to Warren but maybe to Trump. The same nerdy and childishly wishful fanboys base.

If he's a threat to Trump Democrats wouldn't be attacking him

I have no sympathy for Dems. The DNC can go suck a lemon. I care about the ever growing critical mass progressives in the US. The fact only billionaires can reliably run on an independent outside the big parties says a lot about the state of the US democracy. It needs to change fast.

Democrats are attacking him because he's running a political campaign against the idea of raising taxes on very rich people. He's not a threat to Democrats because he's likely to draw voters from their candidate. He most definitely is far more aligned ideologically with people who are more likely to vote for Trump. But it's clear the only thing he cares about is his taxes staying low.

The Democrats dont want him to run because he takes votes away from Trump?
“Don’t help elect Trump, you egotistical billionaire... (cuss word deleted)"
Those were the words of a heckler at a Manhattan book store, the heckler has been praised by the left and I've heard numerous Democrats criticizing Schultz for splitting the anti-Trump vote if he runs.

Hmmm, not necessarily. I've seen worse tyrants than Trump forced out of office at the ballot box, including in the country I inhabit. Don't give up hope.

Schultz is running to discredit the idea of raising rich peoples' taxes. He's not taking anyone's votes away, he's just a vain rich asswipe using his money to run a campaign against his taxes going up.

"In his speech, Schultz also touched on the threat posed by the nation’s $22 trillion debt and the need to reduce health care costs. “Neither side has developed -- let alone offered -- a credible plan to reduce costs by increasing competition,” he said."
Great, so now he's pivoting to running against Medicare for All. He went from being a vain rich asswipe running against his taxes going up, to a vain rich asswipe who thinks "competition" will lower health care costs. At least the first stance made logical sense, despite its moral turpitude. This is just garbage.
Of course, if you believe that a President Schultz would push to raise taxes on the wealthy, you just might be a colossal moron.
