Can a Socialist Win in 2020?
American Thinker ^ | 10/07/2019 | Fletch Daniels

Posted on 10/07/2019 7:46:02 AM PDT by SeekAndFind

Over half of bettors now believe the beer-chugging socialist Cherokee princess will be the Democrat nominee to face President Donald Trump in 2020, which is more than 32 percent higher than the next closest candidate.

This number is likely to climb higher since it has not yet factored in the effect of Bernie Sanders’ heart attack.  His support will almost certainly start shifting to Warren, who has positioned herself as Sanders 2.0, the new and improved model. 

That number also hasn’t fully factored in the effect of the latest impeachment hysteria on Joe Biden’s standing, since he is still at 20% betting odds. 

In the media-Democrat cabal’s thirst to bring down Trump, they have all but destroyed Biden’s campaign to where he was last seen on his knees begging media executives to keep Rudy Giuliani off their news programs, since anyone who pays even a modicum of attention to the story will see the corruption screaming back at them. 

The two most inconvenient facts in this narrative is that Biden’s son mysteriously became something resembling a Ukrainian energy czar despite no apparent qualification and the fact that Biden threatened Ukraine if the country didn’t fire the prosecutor investigating the corrupt company.  The U.S.S. Biden was already taking on water before this latest fiasco but he is now headed squarely to the bottom.

While Warren may not define herself as a socialist, her positions are all but indistinguishable from those of Sanders.  They both support Medicare-for-all, the Green New Deal, and Warren promised to declare war on U.S. energy companies on day one.

No.

But by 2032 one may be a shoo-in.

In 2007, you could have never convinced me that we would have a Muzzie sack of schiff occupying our White House for eight long and miserable years.

Let that sink in.

Sure. Bernie backers like James Hodgkinson will convince you. Feel the pain.

Not sure. But they’re getting close. The left has managed to indoctrinate most Americans under 40. The Democrats have dropped the mask, they now boldly proclaim their allegiance to socialism. The left is simply waiting for those like me to die off.

2020, probably not. 2024, maybe. 2028, count on it.

This speaks to why some democrats want Michelle to run. Fact is, thinking democrats look at those on stage at the debates and think, “us democrats are in deep doo-doo”.

Of course they can. Even if they have to steal it.

R:E A socialist won in 2008

Yes, but he kept his socialism under wraps during the campaign. Today, It isn’t even a secret anymore. It’s out in the open for all to see.

The Bigger question is: If a socialist wins in 2020, will America still exist in 2024?

Yes, if we aren’t careful or lucky as we were this time.
But by the grace of God, we didn’t have Hillary put in place.
She had all the top agencies and media outlets working in her favor,. and still she failed. That was nothing short of a miracle. Miracles do not occur very often.

We now know what to look out for, so that awareness should keep hope (and this country) alive for a long time.
We are less naive now.

People underestimate the HUGE number of people out there who are quietly seething, feeling that they’ve been done wrong by a bank, an insurance company, their employer or some other corporation.

We should not underestimate the huge pent-up demand to see these people PUNISHED.

And Warren speaks spot-on to that constituency.

An ineligible socialist won in 2008 and BOTH parties cooperated to violate the Constitution.

Given that O won twice and most recently a patently corrupt Hillary almost won, perhaps the better question is if a MAGA candidate can win in 2020.
