California Rep. Swalwell joins Democratic presidential race
Washington Post ^ | April 8, 2019 | Associated Press

Posted on 04/08/2019 4:45:58 PM PDT by EdnaMode

California Rep. Eric Swalwell is officially in the running for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination.

Swalwell made the announcement during a taping Monday of CBS’ ”The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.”

The congressman says, “I see a country in quicksand, unable to solve threats from abroad, unable to make life better for people here at home.”

He says, “None of that is going to change until we get a leader who is willing to go big on the issues we take on, be bold in the solutions we offer and do good in the way that we govern.”

He says: “I’m ready to solve these problems. I’m running for president of the United States.”

“Why are all these people running...”

Some have speculated that they are all have indictments in their future, and they hope to avoid the mess by being in the Presidential race and claiming political persecution when the indictments drop.

According to Ballotpedia.org,there are 226 Clowns (er sorry, I meant Dems) running for the chance to lose to Donald Trump. Some of the clowns are Dakota Foxx, D'Shawn Raynard Hawthorne, D'Shawn Sunshine M. Hawthorne (same clown?), DeJawon Joseph, Jorran Lee Beebe, Jose Arnold Villagrana, Keyshawn Dwayne Varnado, Maayan Z. Zik and Mark London Dunham II among others...

Ever heard of Conservative Independent Democrat? Also 84 Republicans are running, along with 14 Green and 24 Libertarians. A few others are running on other parties, too....

Rather than run for President, he should resign.

“Swalwell has also made gun control a focus of his career and is due to hold a town hall Tuesday in Parkland, Florida, the site of the 2018 mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School.”

Just what we need, a gun controller for president...

#8. Re your comments about “Swallowell, you are a joke even to the nuts that run the DNC”.

Please don’t say “nuts” around Swallowswell. He might take that as an invitation.

If you put Swalwell, AOC, Schiff and Crazy Bernie together in one room, you’d have the start of the biggest Democrat/Marxist insane asylum in the world. GO FOR IT!!

Put Mad Maxine and Big Mama Abrams in it and you’re gonna need another asylum.

I believe the Dems should buy an Indian State Railroad passenger train, by next year, it would have more clowns running than a typical train in Indian (people on the roof and hanging off the side).
