CNN had a report that there is still 1 democrat in America who is NOT running for the 2020 democrat presidential nomination.

No one knows who it is.

The hunt is on!

Democrats have discovered another "Get Rich Quick" scheme.

Run for office and stupid people give you more money than you efer dreamed of.

If enough stupid people jump on your bandwagon you might hit the jackpot and actually get elected to public office.

That's when the really BIG money starts rolling in.

No need to hunt...he's right here in my little oh-so-progressive suburban town. He's the chief sanitation officer of our town and was born Francis but he now wears skirts and goes by the name of Diamond.

And he just announced his candidacy for the Presidency about 20 minutes ago!

These people all look at Trump and think “Hey, he is just a blowhard celebrity who was able to get elected...I can do it too!

“Everybody wants to be a General” goes the old saying.

They simply don’t realize how Trump made his living all those years before he ran for President.

He wasn’t a community organizer. He was playing hardball with people who were used to playing hardball, and had to make bold decisions and took chances. And he got things built.

Reading that, this came to mind, lol.

Obama: “You didn’t build that.”
Trump: “Oh yes, I did!”

Hahahaha...

That did make me grin!

One statement is an emotionally based lie.

The other is a statement of fact!

He was playing hardball with people who were used to playing hardball, and had to make bold decisions and took chances.

And he got things built.

And all those years he had to work with, and find out ways to get around, crooked, corrupt career politicians (is there any other kind).

And they all had their hands out for under the table pay offs.

So president Trump knows politicians better than they know themselves.

He can probably smell a crooked politician from 6 counties away!
