Politico, being a pretty much internal Democrat publication, is a good source for this information. Time for more pop corn.

Hopefully it will be a one-two punch when Hillary joins the fray. :)

The communists are out of money....and out of viable candidates.
The POTUS has basically pulled the mask of em...and it ain’t pretty.

Occupying the vacuum left by the departure of Swalwell and Beto.

Blindside is easy when their Field of View is from about 269-271 degrees Left.

That’s why they’re using the House and taxpayer money to run their 2020 campaign

Think Herr Mules $30 million investigation was expensive?

435 House members doing nothing for a year, to the tune of $174,000 each (minimum)

= $75,690,000

Not counting all of their staff and other office expenses

BLOOMBERG 10% WEALTH TAX

Pass a Bloomberg 10% Wealth tax on Bloomberg,
per annum,
and transfer the money to taxpayer pensions.

A moderate RAT is ultra-liberal who lies about being one, and instead passes themselves off as “moderates”.

There is utterly nothing remotely moderate about these two Big Government Neo Fascists

Michael Bloomberg and Deval Patrick

Deval is an empty suit. Whatever they want him to be. It’s sort of the Obama phenomenon, but people have already seen Deval in action (or in inaction) and they aren’t impressed.

The remaining Dem moderates going to war with their rabid socialist moonbat base can only be good for our side.

Bloomberg is a non starter....

And does anyone even know who the other guy is?

What makes those two “moderate?” Just wondering. Bloomberg is very bright but radical, far leftist as hell. At least on some vital subjects. I agree that the D’s need a moderate candidate - at least one recognizably more sane than their current bunch - if they want any chance in 2020

Just hilarious! What a slap in the face to Creepy Joe, Bernie, and Pocohauntas to come right out and say none of them are good enough.

Like I said at the beginning of the clown show a while ago, NONE of the Current Candidates will be the Nominee, I still got my money on Hillary coming in.

The Wall Street tycoons are desperately searching for a candidate that won’t tax them into oblivion. Deval will not be able to challenge President Trump in “deplorable country” because we don’t know him. If we are forced to learn who he is and what he is about, he will fair about as good as Booker has.

As for as Bloomberg is concerned we already know all we need to know about him. He tried to dictate what size big gulps New Yorkers could buy and that went over like a turd in the punch bowl. Our fear is what he may come up with next.

He has also spent millions of his own money trying to repeal the Second Admendment. That ain’t gonna endear him to any sane person in the heartland.

We already kicked Hillary’s fat ass so the Dems need to go back to their drawing board again.
