So the 70% tax and wealth tax basically got him so scared that he's now pulling this stunt. Got it.

No

He won’t even impact the race unless Dems puts up some clown like Biden.

Dude will drop out ... His money might be long but it ain't President campaign long

Why do people think anyone will find this dude appealing?

He will make less of a dent than Gary Johnson did in 2016.


People should only be worried about a third party candidate if they have serious appeal.

You could make an argument that Gary Johnson voters swung the election.

Yeah I think Trump wasted the “run the country like a business” campaign for a least generation or until my nephew(8) is in his late twenties

Not even talking Michael Bloomberg yet as potential Independent and Democrat and Republican party crasher in 2020.

This particular article says a Howard Schultz run would help Trump.

From article:
"For the past year, Schultz has been investing in burnishing his image and strategizing by hiring a number of experienced consultants, most prominently Steve Schmidt, the 2008 campaign manager for John McCain. Schmidt has spent the past 10 years on a mea culpa tour for his hand in Sarah Palin’s selection as McCain’s running mate, which took him first to being an MSNBC contributor, then to leaving the Republican Party, and now to guiding this effort."

Steve Schmidt?!
Not really a compelling choice. I don't like his chances but hey it's a free country and he definitely has the money to make his case.

There is definitely a lane for a moderate if that's what he's going to run as.
