Dumbfuck in Charge isn't concerned with those who disagree with him.
Yet, he whines and bitches about those who disagree with him - multiple times a day.
The most frightening thing to me is either Trump doesn't know he's severely mentally unstable or he does know he's severely mentally unstable and is really enjoying f*cking with people to the point that one day he will undoubtedly do something so drastic that he and the country/world will be majorly fucked beyond repair - and he'll get off on it.
I wish I was confident that those who are legitimately frightened by him and realize that he is a dangerous man who is very capable of doing something drastic beyond repair - will make sure that never happens.

The 2020 election will be interesting.

How many conservative voters will think of it as “not make the same mistake twice,” and how many will think of it as “still better than Cankles.”

And how will the dems screw it up?

I think Sanders is the only one of the major Dem options that I would label a potential screw up pick.

Warren was a Republican until 1996. She would have been ~47 years old.

I like Warren. Her advocating for income equality appeals to me.

What doesn’t appeal to me is that she, like too many of the candidates, is old as shit.

I dont know enough about her platform to be worried about her yet. I'll dig in more starting around the Iowa primary in early February of next year. My primary isnt until May 12th so that gives me plenty of time. No need to do research into 20 people right now.

I’ve listened to one of Warren’s books (the kind Presidential candidates put out). I’m impressed.

I dont see how that's relevant. I don't vote for anyone based on their current or previous party affiliation. I don't personally think she is the right candidate.

I will say she is solidly in the "maybe too much" lane for me. From what I have heard, she isn't very far away from Sanders end of the left end of the spectrum. I just dont know yet. Plenty of time to let them battle each other, sort out their stances and get their act together. I think the volume of folks and the duration of time left will have whoever comes out on the Dem ticket pretty battle hardened and ready to take on Trump.

I just dont look forward to all his lurking and blabbering and all the ugly attempts at witty insults between now and then.

Shit. I didn't even realize she was 70.

Even worse, I'm older than Kamala Harris.
