Brant,

She reminds me of a woman I once worked with her would do the deed just to find out a man's particulars. Now I have heard some gay men are like that but I think Kamala is a wing dinger too.

Here's a prediction, just to get it on record.

According to Alex Jones, Biden is already looking for a way to gracefully exit the race and is pissed about both the number of Dem candidates and about how he is being thrown under the bus. He's looking at his legacy being destroyed right before his eyes.Let's see if it pans out. I bet it does.

Say it ain't so, Joe...

I think that it would be good for Trump and his supporters if Biden were the Dem candidate.

The person who worries me is Kamala Harris.

Ellen,

I think she will probably get the nomination, but I'm not worried about her. She's arrogant. Granted, she showed a surprising storytelling ability during the Dem primary debate, making people ask, where did that come from?, but I have a feeling Trump will set her up big time, but make it so she, not him, pulls her own rug from underneath her own feet, then falls on her ass with stars and tweeting birdies circling around her head wondering what the hell just happened.

:) 

I mean, he's done that to an entire ruling class and the mainstream press for over three years running. President Trump knows how to make the heads explode of arrogant people. In that state, they get anger wrong in terms of public perception--instead of coming across as passionately wedded to a vision and pissed off at injustice, they always seem emotionally unstable or Grundies, unprincipled and petty. The truth is, people with exploding heads don't win elections.

:) 

Frankly, to my mind, Harris looks like easy prey for President Trump's killer skill stack. She might surprise him here and there, but I believe she is a prisoner of her own personality and character and will not keep a level head. Since she's normally boring and affected as all hell, bouts of sudden rage or Grundyism will be a stark contrast to that baseline and make her seem bipolar.

:)

Wow, Michael. Kamala? Aren’t you the bold one!

It is 477 days or so until the next Presidential election on November 3, 2020. That’s about 15 to 16 more months. From Real Clear Politics. National Democratic Presidential Nomination Poll: Biden 27.3 Warren 16.3 Sanders 14.8 Harris 14.3 Buttigieg 6.0 O’Rourke 2.5 Yang 1.8. I still think Biden will fade and there are stories today that he is ready to bow out. Biden / Harris? Harris / Butigieg? Any other suggestions, predictions, or prophesies?

President Trump has another year before The Democratic primary on July 13th to July 16th 2020. And that event will cause the President’s focus and The News to shift. The President will be busy slicing and dicing the democratic agenda and candidate after the Primary. And ABC, CBS, NBC News will be slanting the news about the campaigns of both parties in even more cunning ways. I think they have learned since 2016. In contrast Fox News will seem more pro Trump than usual, while also being more neutral than the other major networks.

President Trump has one year to keep or raise economic growth to a 28,000 or higher DOW. Pursuing more Laissez Faire policies, works. He has one year to be a successful President who keeps us out of wars. But who can say if Presidential smarts and an overwhelmingly strong military power can insulate America from an irrational country like Iran? I have no doubt the war colleges and the pentagon are busy creating scenarios and successful resolutions that will displease the Mullahs and the American left.

One worse case is dozens of Iranian scud missiles fired at Israel after a confrontation with America. And then America and Israel flatten the Iranian threat. Perhaps America will urge Israel to stand back and observe as happened with Iraq. But no one knows anything other than intentions. Peter

Peter,

You're right, it's too early. But Dems are very superficial this go around so I'm risking it. I might be wrong, but probably not.

Harris is a woman and part black. Check and check. For the elitists, she went to Haaahvaahd. Check. She also says nonstop bad things about Trump and she lies her ass off, topic no issue. Check and check.

 She is fully prequalified on all Dem fundamentals.

:)

It will be interesting to see Kamala mad, flustered, and her reaction to crowd jeering, gaffs,. misspeaks. and apologies. "I'll select potent potables, Alex." Does she drink or do any drugs now, or in the past? Does she have an expunged juvenile record? Let's see her high school yearbook. Will she do or say anything to get elected? It is time for the President to hire the A-Team. 

President Trump has weathered the worst they have thrown at him. And now he is . . .  not a seasoned veteran because that can imply he is now just A Politician . . . but he has been through the mill as the saying goes. To my surprise, even his TV experience saying, "You're fired!" has aided his righteous cause. I would advise him to get more sleep and about those tweets, Donald? Can I call you Donald? Well the same to you buddy, and I won't let the door hit me in the ass! Peter

I wrote that about my prediction that Kamala Harris will be the Dem nominee.

But there is another person waiting in the wings.

Before anyone laughs, please remember the faces of the guests on the Bill Maher show when Ann Coulter said Donald Trump had the greatest chance of winning the presidency.

I think there is a more than a good chance Hillary Clinton will run again and get the nomination.

I think that Hillary Clinton might try again and could get the nomination, but that if so, the party leadership would have badly underestimated the amount of disgust among middle- and blue-collar-class Dems who feel disregarded and are already inclined to Walk Away.

I agree that it would take a 7.0 quake on the Political Scale to get Hillary back in the saddle.

From Fox News. Newt Gingrich predicted an all-female ticket for Democrats in 2020, telling Sean Hannity the party will nominate Senators Kamala Harris for president and Elizabeth Warren for vice president. Gingrich also criticized the "dishonest" Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez "squad" and key member Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) in an interview with FNC's Hannity on Monday. He said it is a fair question to ask if they dislike America so much, why are they here?

The mention of Old Hickory Clinton brought back memories of when she was running in the primaries against Obama and Rush Limbaugh had a campaign of his own going that supported her. It was berry, berry funny radio. I privately wrote to Rush Limabaugh in 2003. Operation Maximum Chaos. Rush, I only heard the end of your broadcast Tuesday. It’s too soon to pull the plug on your temporary support of Senator Clinton. If she were a shoo-in, then I can understand your operatives supporting Barack, but the Dark Side is too powerful. Obama still leads in delegates and popular votes. Operation Chaos needs to shrink the malignancy. And Hillary needs to STEAL the nomination before or at the convention. The fools need to FEEL Hillary stole it for the maximum Chaos to be achieved. Operation Maximum Chaos. Rush, you are brilliant and always two weeks ahead of time.

Peter,

How's this scenario?

Hillary Clinton does no debates and does not campaign in the primaries.

But the primary candidates are so fractured and weak, and they trash each other so viciously, nobody is a strong winner going into the convention. So with a gaggle of terrified superdelegates and party bosses, they settle on Hillary Clinton in a brokered convention.

That scenario has a lot of merit. Damn. She must be “a wishin’ and a hopin’.” What else might she be up to? More on Rush’s old Machiavellian Operation Chaos. I remember speculating that when McCain ran against Obama he should pick Hillary as his Veep. McCain was already considering one democrat, Senator Joe Lieberman, anyway. So I said, so why not consider someone who, with odds of around 95%, could rob Obama of a victory? McCain has already alienated his conservative base beyond repair, but the conservative base MIGHT still vote for McCain because of the War On Terror and national security. McCain with Hillary as Veep could snare: Conservatives, Militarists, Women and feminists, disaffected democrats, mavericks and moderates. But would Old Hickory Clinton grab at the chance to be Number Two or wipe her hands of the whole affair? Joke.

From the net. A White House meeting on Tuesday between President Trump and Republican congressional leaders was abruptly cancelled.

President Trump was considered a long shot until the night he won. A lot of long shots have run for President. Ross Perot. Sec. State Condoleezza Rice. Huckabee. New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio. Wendell Wilkie. Steve Forbes.

TIA DailyDecember 28, 2007 Huckster The "FairTax" Marks Huckabee as a Dangerous Fraud by Robert Tracinski. Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee's surge in the polls is due in part to support provided to him by fanatical advocates of the so-called "FairTax." (See, for example, an analysis in today's Washington Post.) Many things disqualify Huckabee to be president. There is the fact that, in the very first Republican debate, he was one of only three candidates who raised their hands to say that they did not believe in evolution—an indication of his willingness to elevate religion over science. Then there is the fact that he thinks international affairs can be described by analogies to high-school popularity contests

That's the ticket - Harris for president, Warren for vice-president - which I think would give the Democrats their best shot in 2020 and which, Michael's reassurances notwithstanding, I worry could win.  Not a pretty sight if that combo did win.

That is predicated on the idea that ENOUGH women will vote for a woman president, which may be the case. Gulp! From 2017 after Trump’s victory. The most dramatic dip for Republican numbers was among white women: The percentage identifying with the Republican Party fell 5 points from 37 percent to just 32 percent over a year, according to an NBC News report, which further broke down Gallup’s data by demographics.

Notes. Born and Raised. Kamala Devi Harris was born on October 20, 1964, in East Bay, San Francisco. She has a mixed ethnicity of Indian and African American. Her mother Dr. Shyamala Gopalan is from Chennai, India and her father Professor Donald Harris if from the United States.

Her father is a light skinned person born and raised in Jamaica.

Of course Elizabeth Warren is a debunked American Indian, 70 years old and full of yeast.

No, it isn't specifically predicated on women voting for a woman president.  Maybe you didn't notice that plenty of men voted for Hillary Clinton.  It's predicated on what those two, Harris and Warren, are gung-ho about, the causes they espouse.

You did not mention what they stood for in that statement, simply that they are who they are, which is female democrats. I looked up Harris and she espouses the usual liberal agenda but has not taken a stance on a lot of issues. She did not seem flaky.  Yet, I figure Pocahontas is a proud, clueless socialist. I think Kamala can do better than Warren. I don’t think Warren can swing a swing state and the upper north east including New England should vote for the democrat without her on the ticket.  If 55 percent or more of the female voters vote for them, it may not come down to a few swing states. The election will be called by 9pm. Peter
