I think Harris doubling down on impeaching Kavanaugh after the NYT story was exposed is the final nail to her chances. Warren v Biden now.

The Israeli elections I think are a harbinger for the US. For that country to put in a coalition including the Arab parties that openly wants the end of the Jewish state is unthinkable. Yet apparently that's what they're on the cusp of doing.

Warren currently looks good.... but I was listening to Donna Brazile today and she still says don't count out one of the other contenders emerging. Brazile says she isn't ready to get married to one of the top three just yet. And if you don't know who Donna Brazile is you should. At one time she was head of the DNC, not to mention she is smart, intelligent and is not totally batshit crazy like most the current Democrats. Donna Brazile is also the person that gave Hillary the questions before the debate with Trump that gave her a massive advantage that she still managed to squander.

Brazile seems to believe, and I agree with her, that any of the current top three will get steam rolled by Trump. Her and many other Democrats appear to be hoping for a Biden type candidate that isn't step on his own dick Biden.

I think it's still much to early to pick a winner. At this point in the 2016 election Jeb Bush looked like a sure thing for the GOP, and we all know how that turned out.

FWIW - Andrew Yang is the current dark horse that is surging in the latest polls. He just blew past Heels Up Harris to capture 5th spot in the polls. Yang is at 8% last time I looked and that's pretty good.

YMMV

I know Brazile well. But Yang, Harris, et al, there's no reason for Warren to surrender the increasing lead. Now 6 on Biden according to a poll on Breitbart tonight.

But Warren v Trump? It's just demographics at this point. Trump won 60-40 with a 1980 electorate, but lost 51-49 (or whatever) now. And every year that gets worse. What was the D over R in house races last year? 58-42 or something? And anger on the other side of unprecedented level. And a sharp, technical communist in Warren who will logically argue for a govt takeover of our lives. And a tech industry actively suppressing our side. I'm not optimistic.

Factoid: I worked a full month on the Trump campaign, did 4000+ calls tallied on the system, and knocked on 200+ doors. I'm diehard.

Ben Sasse and Mitt Romney's anti-Trump tweets on this subject now fulfill how I expected this all to go:

1. Trump is impeached
2. The senate trial ends with a majority supporting removal but not 2/3
3. Romney and Sasse lead the Repub defectors, which will number 3 to as high as 10. Gardner and Collins two fence sitters in blue states defecting, for example. Which means 51 to 58 votes to remove
4. Dem campaign will effectively be, "a majority believe he's guilty, but only the antiquated 2/3 requirement saved him."
5. The weight of this blow, coupled with demographics and unrelenting 24/7 media, elects Warren and a Dem congressional sweep.

I'm investing accordingly.

I'd say 1 in 3 odds he's removed. The DC Repub party power echelon is still more aligned with the corporate wing than with us. Beyond the tax cuts and some deregulation, they do not want immigration controls and upset to the China trade. Trump is now more a problem than trying to lobby and manage Dem majorities in their eyes. Immigration and increased consumers here, coupled with a return to the status quo of Chinese outsourcing, represents serious, easy corporate money.

As Biden goes down in flames the Democrats have no one else that can challenge Trump as all other candidates are extreme left. The DNC knows this and will pull Hillary v3.0 off the rack. I think the big reason they haven't already is her health is poor and they want to save the wear and tear. YMMV

Climb-Utah.comI've thought Warren would be the nominee from the get-go. But I have to hand you one on this call. I suspect she's clamoring for attention more than anything and won't get in. Her ego is massive, but maybe her lust for power is even more so and she will.

Given that, though, I still believe the Bernie/Warren wing is larger than support for her now. Yet Bernie and Warren are splitting that vote, so she might get in and be the front runner from the start. Which goes a long way toward getting the nomination.

The Democrats might still nominate Warren, but she will get steamrolled in a general. Her Socialist values will not play to middle America. There are still to many old people voting that grew up during the Cold War and understand what Socialism really is.

The DNC is also having difficulty raising money as big business doesn't want to donate to a program that will destroy them. In contrast the RNC is currently raking in cash by the truck loads. The RNC currently has a massive war chest.

I'm revising my 2020 Predictions...

There is no way in hell that Hillary can run as she is about to be swept up in the Durham investigation where they investigate the investigators. She will be front and center as she paid for the fake Dossier that started the entire thing. This has recently been reclassified as a criminal investigation, which means someone is going down (that person won't be Hillary as someone else will have to fall on the sword).

Pocahontas is out as she is to radical to win a general and the Democratic party knows that. There is a possibility she is elected but she will not win a general, especially after her Health Care plan was revelled and requires more money then God has to make it work.

Biden, the great white hope, is out as everyone with any smarts can tell the gaffe machine is suffering the onset of dementia.

I think the Democrat's are going to have to go to the second string to find a candidate. Maybe Mayor Pete or Perhaps Bloomburg.

The Democratic party is currently a train wreck.

I'd say that within 6 months of Trump getting elected, the Dems knew they were going to lose 2020. That's why no one with half a brain is running...the same thing happened in '84, '96, '08 and '12. The Dems are just going to rake in the money from the true believers and live the high life.

I think the last man standing will be Bernie. Joe Biden was the ONLY thing "moderate" Dems could stomach and that dude is indeed fading fast. The smart thing to do is limit his campaign appearances to twice a week and somehow get his ass to the Convention...at least what's left of the Democrat Party can make a last stand...otherwise the Bernie Bro's are going to be there in force and get that goofy commie fart across the finish line.

Bloomberg doesn't need or want the money and he likely doesn't want to get humiliated. Pete hasn't go a chance either, this country "may" have been "ready" for a black President, but we sure as hell aren't ready for a gay one.

My best hope is that we win back the House big time...make these stupid Dems irrelevant.

I don't know how you guys can keep the optimism. Tonight's results in VA and KY bode ill for 2020. Though there's no doubt in my mind Trump's policies are favored over the Dem's radical ones, his behavior and rhetoric have been too much for too many, imo. I see a Warren/Dem sweep.

I think tonight increases the chances of enough Repub senators seeking to oust Trump. The party apparatus will decide to save itself by doing so.

Iceaxe, I'd rebalance your record portfolio. I got out of 90% of my US stocks about a month ago. With record earnings, record prices, and a strong dollar, you have to point to something meaningful to move more positive. Is there a greater chance of more deregulation and tax cuts or the opposite? Downside risk is huge in my eyes, with a Repub hold in 2020 not moving the needle given the filibuster.

I'm doing some hard money loans that expire well before the election, and have all other holdings outside the US, besides the equity in my house.

So I looked at the election results from last night and here is my two cents. Both sides have something to cheer about and both sides need to take a serious warning. As we have seen time and again in recent years a quality candidate will defeat a crook and/or asshole. Extreme's on both sides lost big last night, every candidate that won in a close race was a moderate, that was pretty much middle of the road.

The presidential election in 2020 will be decided in 6 to 9 purple states. If you can win the majority in those states you will win in 2020. These national polls you keep seeing mean nothing as we are a Republic and not a true democracy. The majority doesn't rule, just ask Hillary about that.

The only two Democratic candidates I currently see that could win those 6 to 9 purple states are Biden or Gabbard as everyone else is extreme left and that's just not going to fly. If you want to know how the 2020 election will really go watch the purple states.These are the states I'll be watching closely: Arizona, Florida, Michigan, Minnesota, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin as that is where 2020 will be won or lost.

Oh because our "war on drugs" was going so well? Mexico is on the brink of legalizing and MJ is already legal in Canada. So we'd be sandwiched between two countries who have legalized.

Not to mention it will eliminate the cartels and organized crime. The final step is to tax the shit out of recreational drugs and use the money to get addicts the help they really need and repair the damage drugs cause.

Totally agree with this although you'd be burned at the stake for saying something like this in public. Drugs have been demonized and vilified to the extent that the notion of legalizing them is unspeakable for the vast majority of the general population.

Seems to be working reasonably well in Portugal though:

That's because it's not written into the law that it can't be used elsewhere. Taxes work when they are earmarked for a specific use in the law, but if they are sweep into the general fund not so much...

Another problem with the 'tax the @#$# out of rec drugs' is that when they are so high, this still creates a demand for blackmarket product, which puts a hard ceiling on how much $ revenue will actually be pulled in.

Also, the problem with taxing products and earmarking them specifically for program A, is that it often doesn't do anything for program A because the funds are rarely increased. In other words, let's say for example that the government takes $1M out of the general fund to pay for program A. Then they pass a law to tax a product and earmark those funds for program A. In effect, they then stop pulling money from the general fund for program A, an program A is left to be funded purely from those earmarked funds. If those earmarked funds only amont to $1M, then all you've really done is increase the general fund by $1M by not taking it out of the general to fund program A.

Regardless of anyone's stance on MJ, one thing is for certain that I think everyone can agree with:

It costs much more to continue this failed war on drugs than it does to just legalize and tax. And that is something that any 2020 candidate can and should address.

I always look at alcohol and prohition to see what a disaster it is to try and legislate morals. Alcohol is still a problem, but by legalizing it we have much more control over it's use, distribution and the problems that come with it.

FWIW - I believe prostitution should be legalized for basically the same reasons.

some didn't see him coming from behind.

Iceaxe

I called Mayor Pete six months ago... if I knew how to search this thread I would have quoted it.

It's really a no brainer as most candidates are too far left to defeat Trump and everyone knows that except for the extreme left.

Biden would have been the Democrats best candidate but he is losing his metal capacity to old age and everyone can see it.

Tulsi Gabbard is the Democrats best candidate and could beat Trump, but the DNC has rigged the election against her similar to what they did to Bernie in 2016. I'm not exactly sure what Gabbard did to draw the ire of the DNC, other than refuse to support Hillary in 2016, but she has crossed a line somewhere the DNC will not forgive.

So that leaves Mayor Pete currently as the only viable moderate alternative by default. Or at least until one of these late race additions jumps in with both feet.

I also still believe Hillary will make a play of some type. She is holding out because her health will not allow a long term run.

If the Democrats run a socialist from the extreme left they will lose the presidency, but even a bigger catastrophe will be they'll get slaughtered in the down ballet elections.

I'm assuming that commonsense will eventually grab hold in the DNC and they will settle on a moderate. What surprises me more is why a couple other candidates running with low poll numbers have not tried to stake out a more moderate platform. Whomever the DNC nominates will be making a mad dash to the center for the general election as that is standard operating procedure.

Good analysis. The wild card is demographics. Old rules don't apply when real Americans are dying, anti-American millenials are getting brainwashed in schools, and blank slate non-American immigration continues at a staggering rate.

I don't see any way out of a CA electorate overall, where reality doesn't matter and the left wins everything no matter what. The country is in serious danger of being destroyed.

Bernie is to old and too far left.... Biden is still the front runner and might win the nomination because he is actually the best candidate they have who has any traction. What's funny is the less Biden talks and the less Biden is seen the better he does in the polls. At the moment Biden has more then twice the support of the next closest candidate.

Bloomberg has already climbed to 4th in the polls and he has only been in the race a couple of weeks. I hate Bloomburg, but he entered because he could see the Democrats were a trainwreck and he is probably their best candidate at the moment outside of Gabbard who they will never elect after her pissed off Queen Hillary last election by pointing out she was crooked.

Hillary should be jumping in after the first of the year if her health can withstand it and Bloomberg hasn't surged.

That's my current 2 cents at the moment, things will clear up greatly after Super Tuesday (March 3rd).

This is exactly why the Dems are pro open borders and ‘undocumented’ voting, anti-voter ID, all while pandering to immigrants with welfare, free healthcare, etc. They know they can get more power by doing so.

Generally, I’ve strongly disagreed with the declarations of Utah’s leaders being opening welcoming and broadcasting to import more refugees. But, with respect to congressional jockeying power, if we can get enough of them to not vote Dem, I question if it might be a good tactic.

I can't stand Michael Moore, but he is one of the very few, or perhaps only liberal that correctly predicted the 2016 election. And he is basically predicting another Trump win and gives the same reasoning I do....

I can't stand Michael Moore

Likewise. Oddly, I've viewed Moore as someone so close to the MAGA side of the Repub party that it's tragic he's on the other side. He almost gets it.

To wit, his comment at the end about the "greedy" form of capitalism we have now. That's a part of MAGA, recognizing that the globalist, corporate movement, which the establishment Repubs have championed for so long, doesn't give a damn about this country or its people.

Yet his solution of a greedy socialist state is far worse.

Time will tell but I think I'll go out on a limb here and go against moore's prediction of Trump losing the popular vote.

I base that on the attendance, even in deep blue states, at Trump rallies.

The dems, like warren and biden are campaigning in bowling allys and restaurants with only tiny audiences in those.

We've said it many times here--most wouldn't like Trump the person but you would have to be brain dead to not appreciate Trump the President.

I think Trump will win handily. Imagine this is like a Roulette Wheel...Trump is red and whoever is the Dem is black...where would you put your money? I'd bet on red, right now and keep it there.

When George W. was running for re-election in '04, I heard someone from his campaign say "Don't change horses midstream"...property values were going up, the economy was doing well, we were involved in a war that most of us wanted to win (somehow). He beat Kerry easily.

Hillary was riding the coattails of Obama...both the economy ramping up and the media worship of the guy. I would imagine that plenty of people voted for her because Trump was such and unknown...perhaps fearful that Trump would screw everything up just as it was getting going. He didn't.

The election is a forgone conclusion. This country was smart enough to elect him in the first place, and I think we're smart enough to do it again. I'll give everyone a pass on the Obama thing...considering the media successfully sold the "Liberal Jesus", but I think it'll be damn near impossible for them to pull that off again...especially now that the pink ribbon has been pulled away in regards to their "unbiased opinions".

I think that's the biggest story of the 21st century so far...the unmasking and exposure of the media and the oligarchs who run it.

I mentioned when this all began that Tulsi Gabbard was by far the best candidate the Democrats had, but she never stood a chance as she went against Queen Hillary in 2016 and pointed out how the DNC rigged the election and screwed poor old Bernie.

That's why Hillary torpedoed Gabbard's candidacy early on by calling her a "Russian Agent". It was payback for not supporting Queen Hillary in 2016. If you haven't figured it out "Russian Agent" in the Democrats dog whistle.

For me it always circles back to demographics. We're importing 1 mil+ per YEAR. 90% Dem voters, who then chain in millions more. Plus the pro-America generations are dying off.

I can't find the link again, but there was recently a Fox News article about an analysis pointing to an approx 2.3% move toward Dems in the key swing states just on this demographic fact alone, all else equal. Considering the thin margins in WI, MI, and PA, that's ominous. So unless and until we have massive immigration reform (read: end it), we don't stand a long term chance to save the country's values.

Gabbard has never gained traction and Hillary will sink her if she starts to gain any. And there is no way in hell Biden can go up against Trump without stomping on his own dick. If the Democrats reach Super Tuesday without a clear frontrunner look for Bloomberg to make a big run.

^^ Better poll, @oldno7 (http://www.bogley.com/forum/member.php?u=2899). More respectful of Dem voices.

But the rise of Steyer in SC, and getting on the main debate stage, is interesting. Would seem to me, @Iceaxe (http://www.bogley.com/forum/member.php?u=36), to help Biden. Yet another wack left candidate to split that vote. So it's basically a 5 man race: Butti and Biden splitting, and Warren/Sanders/Steyer splitting, if Steyer has legs. Biggest shoe to drop will be who withdraws first between Warren and Sanders, imo. 2nd biggest shoe is when Butti drops out, which I'd guess is the first shoe chronologically.

The DNC will NEVER let Sanders win as he is not a Democrat and has yet he has even failed to register as a Democrat, which is required by their rules to become their candidate.

Bernie is rising in the polls because Warren is tumbling... everyone knew only one would survive and inherit all the commies... err... socialist.

I think Biden is done for, the moderates in the party know Trump will eat him alive. I expect the moderates will eventually rally behind Bloomberg or Klobuchar.

Klobuchar was looking good until last week when someone pointed out all the sweet and innocent black kids she put in prison. We'll have to see if she can survive that...

Say what? Kerry can’t be throwing his hat in the ring, can he? Or is this just typical DNC / MSM smoke and mirrors / squirrel tactics?

^ Maybe a planted story to get Hillary to enter.

Klobuchar would be formidable. Not sure why the Dems haven't swarmed to her. Notwithstanding the recent stories about her prosecutions of black teens. Though I think in normal times that would help her greatly, a la Bill Clinton's Sister Soulja moment. Though times and that party are different now.
