de blasé, riding his high horse to oblivion.

New York Mayor Bill de Blasio officially enters the 2020 Democratic presidential primary.
“Donald Trump must be stopped,” he says in a video announcing his campaign.
De Blasio faces more resistance to his presidential aspirations — including from his own constituents — than nearly any other Democrat in the race.

He needs to fill up his bank account with campaign cash. Then he can bail.
Will Warren Wilhelm / Warren de Blasio-Wilhelm / Bill de Blasio change his name again for this particular race? I think he should, just to keep things interesting.
I remember how in 1972 another failing NYC mayor, John V. Lindsay, ran for president, and got nowhere. Now DeBlasio continues the tradition.
Bill DeBlasio must be stopped.
Although, I think that will happen on its own.
“Donald Trump must be stopped,”

Before he gives the citizens the opportunity to keep their country.
de blasé, riding his high horse to oblivion.
his name is Warren Wilhelm IIRC.....
Exactly, what he did is worse than even Beto.
Why? There are a lot of other countries that really need a Man like him in charge, like South Africa, Venezuela, Zimbabwe, Kenya,... He won’t even have to LIE about what his goals are.
ya know I sometimes think it is just Trump that they hate but we got a lot of this with “W” only now it is worse, but the next GOP candidate will get this 2X. This is now the new normal.
Trump won’t be stopped by a pompous, arrogant, White-hating marxist whose only claim to fame is that he banned big cups of soda.
so your post intrigued me.
history of course is not repeatable, strictly speaking; then again....sometimes it does seem to resemble prior manifestations, does it not?
So to your excellent point, here is a wiki list of all the candidates against Nixon in 1972:
Overall, fifteen people declared their candidacy for the Democratic Party nomination. They were:
George McGovern, Senator from South Dakota
Hubert Humphrey, Senator from Minnesota and former Vice President, presidential nominee in 1968
George Wallace, Governor of Alabama
Edmund Muskie, Senator from Maine, vice presidential nominee in 1968
Eugene J. McCarthy, former Senator from Minnesota
Henry M. Jackson, Senator from Washington
Shirley Chisholm, Representative of New York’s 12th congressional district
Terry Sanford, former Governor of North Carolina
John Lindsay, Mayor of New York City, New York
Wilbur Mills, Representative of Arkansas’s 2nd congressional district
Vance Hartke, Senator from Indiana
Fred Harris, Senator from Oklahoma
Sam Yorty, Mayor of Los Angeles, California
Patsy Mink, Representative of Hawaii’s 2nd congressional district
Walter Fauntroy, Delegate from Washington, D.C.
Reubin Askew, former Governor of Florida
Note the relative diversity there...Wallace on the right (sort of), Jackson in the middle, and McGovern on the left (with all the others).
Note the House members taking a shot at the big seat.
Note the NYC mayor, as you already did.
Very interesting.
I guess it could happen that 2020 is another 72.
Certainly don’t want Trump to get run out of town on a rail...but then again, history doesn’t exactly repeat itself and I’m thinking that they already blew that “opportunity” with the Russia hoax.
In any event, thanks again for the post.
Fascinating.
Imagine a country that is as totally screwed up as New York City is. Bill actually thinks we would like that.
I see a repeat of 2004. The Democrats spend 3.5 years of hurling vitriolic hatred at the president, but have no message. They have a primary to prove who can hate the president the most, then come to the general election with no real direction or plan. They only know they are a better option than the President, because he is stupid. Then they promptly lose a landslide to said “stupid” President.
And this DumblASSio is just the one to stop Donald Trump...in his own mind. That’s like sending a windbroke three legged half breed gelding to the track against Secretariat.
Just when I thought the Dem primaries couldn’t get worse.
My theory is someone put him up to it in order to make Biden look sane.
Actually they’re all in it to take up media time once things get underway, which would limit Trumps air time. also they’re like a plague in order to cover the nation with their poison.
