[Truth Detector]

Prediction: Schultz will NEVER win a Presidential election. Schultz is not a conservative.

So far the businessman for president thing's not working out so good.

I hope and expect him to run as an Independent. I hope and expect him to cost the Democrats the election.

Hello DonaldvoTrumpovich,

Our previous Constitution allows for Americans to criticize our government.
Are you trying to suppress my First Amendment rights of free speech?

Not at all. I support your right to express myself. I'm just doing the same thing as you.

You think our Founding Fathers would be pleased with the current state of our government?

I don't.

No, I don't think so either. Our founding fathers would be abhorred at all the money being thrown at our government, and how much influence it has produced for the elite. It would probably make them cry.

I think they would want to amend the Constitution to stop that. Shall we brainstorm and see if together we can write such an amendment? Tell you what. I'll begin a thread for that. Look for it soon coming to a General Politics Forum near you!

If Schultz wants to run for president, he should do it as a centrist democrat?!!

 

[evince]

he sounds more like a libertarian to me


all right wing economic stupid and dropping the fake moral superiority thing



Kinda what the corporations would like to see

Good idea. I would start with Term Limits for Congress and a Balanced Budget amendment.

The stock market had a negative return in 2018. If you invested money in American Business in 2018, you lost money. The economy is NOT roaring.

You lose points for conflating the stock market with the economy on the first page of your own thread lol.

Shultz makes me nervous for a couple reasons.

One is that he is electable. He could win by bleeding support from Trump. Many Trump supporters are ‘economy first’ advocates and if Shultz presents his case in such a way that he appeals to this bloc of voters, then Shultz could win by building a coalition from both major parties.

Secondly, Shultz could force democrats towards the middle. We need democrats to be cray-cray going into 2020 lol. I’d prefer he ran as a democrat [because they’re too far gone to nominate him] or just stay out of it altogether.

The Dems won't allow themselves to moderate. An independent run would threaten to flip blue states (like WA), but not any red states.

I would totally not be surprised if Roger Stone is behind urging Shultz to run. It's just his style.

Americans are more concerned with their stock portfolio than obscure economic metrics lol.

I hope he does; assuming he is serious and not just selling books.

Idiot thinks the stock market is the economy.
