What things would you like to fast forward to:

Here are some of the things I wish were happening right now:

Junior and Jarvanka indictments
Mueller report released to public
DNC Convention celebrating our prez ticket
January 21, 2021 - Trump arrested after leaving office

What are yours?

I can't wait for the first debate in June.

We have such an embarrassment of riches (compared to the actual embarrassment in the White House) and I can’t wait to see them all on a debate stage.
Looks like we will end up with between 16-18 candidates so that would be two consecutive nights of 8-9 Democrats showing the nation how awesome they are!

Mortifying moment with a friends name.

Wonder if anyone can relate to this.
Was at a party and was introducing a friend of mine to some people.
Her name is Monique Hunt.
Seems normal, right?
Now, say it out loud.
OMG 😲 . Some started snickering and another asked me to repeat it.
Fortunately, Monique intervened and said “I never say both names together, just call me Monique or Nique”.
She saved me from an otherwise very awkward moment.

They hate liberals more than Trump embarrasses them.

This past weekend, was around some Trump supporters.
They talked about his lying, womanizing, bigotry, etc.
None liked him or respected him.
But they self identify as conservative Republicans.
And that “trumps” everything.
They said that having such a scoundrel is still infinitely preferable to electing Democrats who they see as anti capitalist, anti American, and anti God.

You can not reason with these Fox News, right wing radio brainwashed morons.

I think Brown & Bloomberg will back Biden.

I think they both got word that Biden is going to run.
That’s why they both said no to running.
I’m betting Beto, Bennet, and Swalwell now also say no.

Biden, Bernie, Warren & Harris are just too many big names to take on.
The rest of the field has some very strong people too.
So, IMHO, our field is now set.
Biden will be the last name to enter and that will happen before April.

Would a Harris/Buttigieg ticket check all of the boxes.

When talking “identity politics” only, an idea popped into my head of an interesting ticket.
The four biggest and most reliable demographics in our party are these:
Women, African Americans, young people, LGBTQ

Harris hits the first two and Buttigieg the last two.

Would that ticket guarantee us a huge turnout?

Am I the only one who thinks Trump will not

Be the GOP nominee in 2020.
I think he will negotiate a type of resignation settlement that protects him and his family and his money.
I think it will be either Pence or Kasich as the GOP NOMINEE in 2020.

Why are all the B people taking so long to decide?

Beto
Biden
Brown
Bloomberg
Bennet (Colorado Senator spells last name with one t).

All have hinted at an announcement happening soon.

"Let's Get Loopy" or maybe "Ride the Loop" ?

So, former Colorado Governor John Hickenlooper has joined the fray.
Let’s pretend we are on his campaign staff tasked with picking his main slogan.
I think you play off of his unusual name and have fun with it to make him stand out.

Your thoughts?

Have Mueller and SDNY already interviewed Allen Weisselberg?

He knows just about everything associated with the Trump crime family, I’ll bet.
At least as far as money is concerned.
