Trumpworld Anxiety Grows Over a Rising Elizabeth Warren

If she gets the nom, wait for
the political ads. The majority
of voters don't yet know she
faked being a Native American.
It will be blasted at them non
stop for months. She'll be an
even worse candidate than
Hillary was.

I hope you are correct. I consider her the only Democrat candidate worse than her for the country is Sanders. Harris is close.

I've always thought Harris was being overrated as the potential nominee. I figured Biden would be about where he is. But I underestimated Warren.

But who cares what you think about her? You’re a Republican. She’s not trying to appeal to you.

If the choice is Warren v. Donald in 2020 and all the anti-Trump Republicans want to blame the Dems for them having to grudgingly vote for Donald or some no-chance 3rd party candidate, I am politely requesting they STFU in advance. You don’t get to pick the Dem candidate. Your party nominated Donald effing Trump, the most unqualified idiot of all time to be Pres. Reflect on that and get your own house in order.

What Warren has said about comparison to Bernie.

Quote:

Bernie has to speak to what Democratic Socialism is," replied Warren, who represents Massachusetts in the Senate.
"
And you are not one?" Giridharadas asked.

"I am not. And the centrists have to speak to whatever they are doing. What I can speak is to is how I am doing," Warren said.

She continued: "All I can tell you is what I believe. And that is there is an enormous amount to be gained from markets. That markets create opportunities."
"Markets have to have rules. They have to have a cop on the beat," she said, adding that "markets without rules are theft."

But it was the millions of Democrats that voted for Trump that put him over the top. Not this Republican who didn't vote for him.
My point is I'm hoping the Democrats nominate an electable candidate who is not a disaster for the country. Out of the choices I have now I'd say Biden and Klobuchar seem to be ones who realize that Republican = evil is not so. That the makers are important, or else the takers have no one to take from.

Polls disagree with me, but I see Warren as another weak candidate. That once the focus is on her, her warts will show even brighter. But since the polls show any Democrat will trounce Trump now, I'm hoping for the most centrist one they can find.

Exactly my point! It was the Democrats that voted for Trump that pushed him over the edge. Remember, it was only a few hundred thousand votes in the 'battleground' states that made the difference between Mr. President and Madam President.
