Warren's biggest issue is going to be the "Native American" issue. The dumbest, most trivial, asinine problem anyone especially a politician could have. But somehow Trump will bury her 200 feet below sea level if she runs against him. It's gonna be all day "Pocahontas, Pocahontas, Pocahontas". Her complaining about racism, identity politics, or PC wording will either fall on deaf ears or make it worse for her. Plus, she can't even rely on the Native American vote. Where was she during DAPL? How often does she visit or talk to Native American tribes? How often does she advocate or even fight for their issues or causes? Her time was 2016. In 2020, it might be worse for her.
She fukked up bad with that shyt. She claimed Native American but can't name what tribe she is from. :snoop:

lol too much going on with that. She's actually not viable as a presidential candidate over this shyt.

That's the worst part. Her ability to be President shouldn't be contingent on it. But the fact that she played politics when she didn't support Bernie and she didn't show up for DAPL until Obama ended it, got me looking at her like :comeon:

Like others have said, the issue is driven by the wealthy funders of the party and the fact that most of those in power are wealthy themselves. Not quite to the degree of the Republicans, but enough so that they are more like them in this respect than different.

Warren hasn't been immune to this lack of guts herself.


I think dems pound for pound might even be richer.. I am serious hopefully someone looks it up..

There are wolves everywhere.. This is an oligarchy

Dems have no platform, no ideas, no leaders, and no candidates :francis:. They got forced to lean back since it turns out some of their big time donors operate in ways that goes directly against their pandering.


I still don't trust Bernie Sanders one bit and his supporters are still active. article a while back saying they are cooking up campaigns against people like Kamala Harris and Cory Booker already - not that they realistically had a shot anyway imo.


Trump is going to handily stomp whoever the run in 2020 - his base is stronger than ever and they will be showing up to the polls no matter what :mjcry:

I was a Bernie Stan brehs.. Even though I didn't agree with most of his policy I thought he was at least honest.

But right dems got no one. I was hopeful for Corey Booker but I am not sure he could sway those rust belt voters. I think K. Harris would try that intersectionality bullshyt and get that work.

You're partially right, but the Dems do listen to the middle class a little more than the Republicans (otherwise they'd lose their base entirely).

There was one study that polled Americans in each congressional district on their opinions on various issues, and then divided their responses by income. They then compared the results to the representative who was representing their district. For Republican representatives, you could predict what they would vote for in Congress solely by looking at the opinions of the wealthiest members of their district. For Democratic representatives, you had to average the opinions of the wealthiest members about 50-50 with the opinions of the average members, and then you could predict their vote. But in neither case did you have to consider the opinions of the poorest 1/3 of residents at all.

its becoming more and more apparent that 2020 is over :yeshrug:

if im the dems, i throw up a hail mary in 2020 and run some socialist who spouts ridiculous, far left garbage mixed with attainable issues to at least get people talking about them. then in 2024, run gavin newsom :ehh:

because if trump is as bad as everyone in here thinks, then it probably wont hit until 2024. i dont think 2020 is enough time for any REAL bad effects of trump to take place for most of the country

Cory Booker is blatantly on his campaign bullshyt and Kamala is getting out there. Like I said they said Sanders supporters already lining up ammo against them, so Repubs don't even have to do much work - Dems collapsing from the inside out.


Right now they are the "Uh...Yeah, we believe all that stuff too!" party. Expect more pandering and less policy to come - when they get blown out in the next elections, they will still be searching for the magic elixir to solve their problems

For real... they should be trotting out a candidate now for 2020.. I think they going with Biden.. but for some reason I don't think the stupid shyt Biden about to say will rub off him the same way it does on Trump.

if the 'blue wave' doesnt happen, then i think a two term trump is a certainty

i know everyone's excited about napoleon's little thread, but no one gives a fukk if even trumps lawyers and campaign advisors get indicted. if the orange isnt put in handcuffs, it's just not gonna matter. frankly the fact that that thread is called "trump impeachment watch" is embarrassing

While Warren is right on this issue, I'm trying to not to be a negative Nancy but I listened to the exact interview in full, and Warren is unfortunately too squishy and milquetoast to have success in a campaign for presidency IMO. Also personally her squishiness in this interview annoyed me and reminded me what I hate about a lot of politicians.

During the interview, she was asked directly if Trump moves to get rid of Mueller will she vote for impeachment. I mean it seems so easy and simple. Yet her answer was filled with a typical overly cautious, worried about what the news headlines would say non-answer.


He also asked her something else that was equally a softball she did the same shyt.

I hate that shyt .
Which interview was that?
Can you YouTube link it?
