2020 Presidential election

You don’t think that trump will have a harder time painting Harris or Biden as a socialist? Or as another member of “the squad?” Because that’s the argument against Warren and sanders. And that’s the argument for Harris and Biden. especially uncle joe Biden, who clearly isn’t all about twitter, free education, health care, etc.

Right?

Just a side note, wouldn’t it actually benefit democrats for the election if the trump administration were to win its lawsuit against the ACA? If the ACA is struck down between now and the election, democrats no longer would need to argue about whether to build on the ACA or going with some version of Medicare.

Ironically, trump winning his suit against the ACA might resolve this health care dispute within the Democratic Party and cost him the election.

What do you think?
As for painting Democrats as socialist, yeah I truly don't think it will matter what the candidates stand for. People willing to trust his word will do so regardless of reality.

I do agree regarding the ACA.

I hope you’re right. I really don’t want Biden. And I think his gaffes, that we all know are coming, could really cost him in the general. Plus, it seems like his own campaign seems a bit slow/reactive. Whereas I feel like both Harris and Warren are running superior campaigns.

I’m just worried that Warren will kill it on the coasts and win the popular vote while lose everything else in the middle. And because of the electoral college, some idiot addicted to Fox News, gets a disproportionate vote because he lives in some dumpster fire in Ohio or Michigan. The EC pisses me off. It literally makes the entire election dependent on the dumbest voters in Florida and a handful of midwestern states

It's an understandable fear. However Warren is a really engaging personality and has a knack for relating with people, which could serve her very well in the Midwest.
 
Also, before anyone calls me an elitist, I want them to read this story. These are the types of voters democrats seem to be chasing while trump already owns. And these types of voters, really bug me:

https://www.nytimes.com/2019/05/27/us/auto-worker-jobs-lost.html

He’s angry that the car factory shut down. But then refuses to move where he can find a job.

Dude, we all have gone through this. We’ve all had to move, get retained, etc. if I could, I’d live in a rural area Moab, Kanab, or kamas too. I’d love to make a decent living off a high school diploma. But that’s not the 21st century.

Am I supposed to feel bad for this guy? And how are democrats supposed to win this guy over when he refuses to move or receive training? He seems to just want to sit on his *** and wait for someone like trump to bring the 1950s back.

Read the article and tell me what you think

I hope so.

I like her a lot.

And personally, I hope trump continues to try and make this a racist fight. It blew up in his face in 2018. Keep alienating everyone who isn’t wearing a white robe, Donald!
 
According to Isidewith.com I agree most with Andrew Yang and Gary Johnson. I dont think either of them have a chance though.
 
I'm not as sure about that. Hillary ran on a pretty moderate platform and wasn't able to get it done. I don't know what qualifies as "hard left" these days, but I think the best strategy is to go after the Obama voters who sat the last election out.

HRC was the absolute worst candidate to choose. The Dems are absolutely brain dead when it comes to winning. Set aside qualifications, her negatives were high, she was status quo in a change year, and her arrogance led to abysmal strategic choices (just like in the Obama election).

So I’d argue that her moderate positions were mostly moot.

PS I held my nose and voted HRC over the racist birther dude.
 
I know Harris had a good debate from what I read but she backtracked on something she said later on? Not a good look.

To me thats a great look. I love a person who has the ability to have thier mind changed. Hate stubborn people who stick to their guns no matter what new info is shown to them and even when they know they are wrong.

Its wierd to me that this is a negative characteristic to a lot of people.

In fact there was something a while back that trump flip flopped on (or a better way to put it, changed his mind about). And the right thing to do was change his stance on it. I actually praised the son of a bitch if you can believe it.

Well, she wasn't my first choice until I saw her talk a few times. I think she's gonna grow on people.

She has the ability to explain, in extraordinary detail, what her plans are, why they are and how she plans to make it happen.

There isn't a candidate in the field more capable of articulating their agenda.

Imagine that.

She should just say that mexico will pay for all of our problems. Thats how you get votes. From idiots anyway. Seriously, the Democratic candidate should just be like, are you Americans sick of high insurance premiums? Well I have the answer and don't worry, it's not socialism or free healthcare. Nothing changes. The prices stay the same. I will just have Mexico pay the premiums for you!
Idiots would go ape **** for that. Who cares that Mexico would of course never agree to that.
I remember when Trump said that Mexico would pay for our 5 billion dollar wall. I laughed and thought no one would believe such a stupid statement. Joke ended up being on me though. Lots of idiots believed Trump. A guy who lies more than just about anyone. And people believed him about such an obvious lie.

So sad that this is a question.

The question should be does the worst piece of **** possible, donald trump, have a chance? And the answer should be no.

Donald is going to have a lot more money than the Democratic candidate. Corporations, Wall Street, the Kochs love the guy. He’s gotten rid of regulations and has given them big time handouts. he’s going to have the full backing of Fox News. And will probably get a lot more ink than the democratic candidate on cnn and The NY Times. and he is KILLING it with republicans/non-college educated whites.

As much as I’d like to see him get wiped out in a blue tidal wave, I just don’t think it’s possible anymore.

Too many dumb and bitter voters in the south and Midwest who equate treating immigrants like humans, gun regulation, and universal health care as communist attacks on their freedumb.

Iran? Was it bombing Iran that you remember? Because I agree,?his backtracking absolutely was the right move. He got some criticism but it absolutely was the right move.

Why does how much money he has matter? To me that is actually a detriment. I would love to see someone who isn't filthy rich lead our country. Kinda sick of out of touch 1%ers making decisions that effect people that they no nothing about and have nothing in common with.

Money is free speech (according to scotus)

I don’t disagree with you. I’m with you on liking to see a non uber rich person win.

But money allows you to buy up ads, hire campaign staff, conduct research, etc. usually, the candidate with the most $, wins.

We could greatly rectify this through publicly financed campaigns. I think sanders once promoted that idea.

That might have been it.
Regardless I find it idiotic that some people see willingness to change your mind as a negative characteristic.

I want my president to have the ability to think one way, investigate their own stance and possibly find new information, and then realize they are wrong and think a totally different, more appropriate way. Apparently this is a negative characteristic though.
Apparently voters praise stubbornness and unwillingness to change or compromise.

Just another sad indicator of how crappy our society has become.

TRUMP AINT OUT OF TOUCH! HES GONNA BRING BACK BIG COAL AND ALL THEM CLOSED FACTORIES. HES THE ONLY PRES WHO THINKS ABOUT THE WORKIN FORGOTTEN MAN.

I think that Asian dude (sorry I can't remember his name right now) that Archie likes proposed something where each American gets 100 democracy dollars to finance a candidate or something like that. I think that's a good idea.

Of course since it's also an out of the box idea and not simply the status quo, no one would like that idea.

People say that want change and that want anti establishment candidates. But they are lying. The moment someone has a new idea they get labeled extremist.
