"IF Dems run HRC, and Howard Schultz runs as Independent, I guarantee Trump wins 2nd term"

[jodymarie aimee]

Chris Christie just on with Stephanopolous..."IF Dems run HRC, and Howard Schultz runs as Independent, I guarantee Trump wins 2nd term." He seemed to be quite jolly with this, despite his book slamming Prince Jared.

[BlueTsunami2018]

1. Yeah, I guarantee it too.

Provided the asshole actually gets to run for another term.

[katmondoo]

2. HRC should just retire, I do not want a repeat and I doubt the American people want it

[MrsCoffee]

3. She should do whatever the fuck she wants.

She has more than served her country and this is beyond disrespectful.

Who are you to say she should retire? Should she take up knitting? FFS.

[Loki Liesmith]

8. I hope she retires

She’s good at policy but generally bad at politics.

Of course she can do what she likes but she will never, ever be president

[MrsCoffee]

9. I hope she stays in politics for another twenty years.

She is the smartest person in whatever room she is in.

I’ll take that over some tweeting star any day of any week of any year.

[Loki Liesmith]

13. I'd take her too but smart is not the same as politically gifted

There’s a certain amount of raw charisma you need to play this game well and I just don’t think she has that.

[honest.abe]

14. I was one of her strongest supporters in 2016 but I agree with you.

She is not our best candidate now... and yes, charisma is part of the reason.

[MrsCoffee]

16. We disagree greatly.

Hillary doesn’t have a charisma problem. America has a misogyny problem.

Misogyny is about to get its ass kicked by some very strong and courageous women. This country needs more voices like Hillary’s.

[Loki Liesmith]

17. Disagreement happens

It’s cool

[triron]

22. I'm with you and her.

[hueymahl]

Hillary is not charismatic to a certain segment of the population (unfortunately, a large segment) in large part because of misogyny.

Regardless of the reason, the outcome is the same, as much as I hate to say it.

[MrsCoffee]

31. Yeah, we should just give up on running the most qualified candidates. Because, misogyny.

Not.

That's not how you make things change.

[hueymahl]

33. I'm sorry you took that from my comment

I was trying to agree with both of you. Of course we should run the most qualified candidates with the best chance of winning. To argue otherwise would be foolish.

[triron]

23. First of all she did not lose the election! It was stolen and illegitimate.

I really tire of the bullshit that she was beaten. The Russians manipulated the election
(and I claim physically altered the vote counts in several states).

[Blue_Tires]

4. And we give a rat's ass what Christie thinks because.....?

[rzemanfl]

10. +1 although when he had a shutdown he got a private beach out of the

deal. What did Drumpf get? Oh, wait, news coverage. He lives for that.

[Hortensis]

5. Chris Christie's a corrupt, dirty, lying Republican bully,

and Trump-butt. I'd change the channel from any show that lowered itself to put that jerk on.

[mainer]

6. Not necessarily. I can see Trump voters going to Schultz

because they like so-called "smart businessmen" and Trump has embarrassed even them. He gives Trump voters an alternative.
While I think Dem voters are pretty much going to ignore him.

[budkin]

21. I doubt it. Their simple minds will only equate him to Starbucks

Which is already seen as a liberal bastion.

[MrsCoffee]

7. Well if Chris Christy said it, then......

who really cares?

[JI7]

11. who gives a shit about what Christie says

[oberliner]

12. Christie is on tv because he is hawking his book, right?

[hatrack]

15. Oh, so like Schultz, he also has a book for sale . . .

What a coincidence!

[oberliner]

20. Yep - exactly

[still_one]

18. FFS, Hillary isn't running. That is bullshit media speculation. However, there is a potential

candidate who is divisionary, who would help trump to a second term

Hillary made it clear a while back she was NOT go to run again. Yes, she could change her mind, but she isn't going to. The "unnamed people", who are spewing that she is considering it, are just trying to stir the pot among Democrats.

If the Democrats want a chance to win the WH in 2020, it would be will advised to choose a nominee that WASN'T involved in 2016

The ghosts of 2016, fairly or unfairly, are still alive and well.

[edhopper]

19. Christie said if he had run against Clinton in 2016

he would have eaten her lunch.

He wouldn't have won, he would just eat her lunch, dinner and breakfast too.

[lame54]

25. And the rest of the buffet table...

And chairs

[peggysue2]

24. This is just more right-wing nonsense

Hillary Clinton is not running in 2020. The right is merely ginning up the base, throwing red meat out to the rubes because the Nancy Pelosi bait has gone stale.

As for Schultz? Again, the only people who want Schultz to run are the Republicans, hoping he can siphon off Democratic votes and open the runway for the Imposter-in-Chief. The Schultz bait is a loser at the gate. How many Dems would want another inexperienced business type, commander of the coffee-makers? Maybe we, the Democratic Party, should however encourage Schultz. Seems to me he'd be a better choice for Republicans disgusted with the Trumpster, those that still believe a businessman would make a fine president.

But Hillary Clinton. Stop it already. The woman has been put through the wringer enough times for 10 lifetimes. Give it a rest.

26. ++++++++++++++++++++++

[0rganism]

27. if 6 were 9

i don't think HRC runs in 2020, except maybe as a barrage balloon during early primaries

50-50 on Schultz running

and it's going to take a lot more than either of those to "guarantee" Trump wins a 2nd term.

[Docreed2003]

28. Never missing a chance to crap on HRC

So tired of these GOP assholes

[JCanete]

29. Nothing Chris Christie says has any value, whatsoever. nt

[sarcasmo]

32. Can't argue with the quote.
