Will any of the candidates have the charisma to convince voters there is a need to show up? Rather than say "Trump will win, why bother voting?"

Wont make any difference will it? Trump will win.

You don't actually have to say that, we know your response. Next time just go " you know."

[Scot Dutchy]

Be honest Tero he has it sown up. They created this core of 25% idiots and only need 10% and the Russians and they are home and dry. Just a stadium full for a ball game and that's it. America is a third world country when it comes to corruption.

One day, people will realise the deep sickness that is exposed by the absurd, corrupt and basically evil nature of politics utterly dependant of fundraising...

One for Scot Dutchy: the Democrats are set up to do the Hillary-Sanders thing again.

Trump only has to sit back and work on his insults.

[Scot Dutchy]

Surprised? That's exactly want the repugs are organising. The democrats are useless.

[Scot Dutchy]

What fucking really gets me sideways is the Americans keep going on about democracy. They have never been democratic in any shape or form. The foundling fathers knew what they were doing. The chance that Joe Blogs would ever get any power was totally away off their POV. Power has always and will for the distant future remain with the 1%.

Democrats regained the House in 2018 in no small measure because of the efforts of billionaires-turned-presidential-candidates Tom Steyer and Michael Bloomberg. Steyer vowed to spend $120 million in support of Democratic candidates in the 2018 campaign. Not to be outdone, Bloomberg spent more than $112 million to aid swing Democratic campaigns, according to the New York Times.

To put those numbers in perspective, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee spent $84 million during the 2018 cycle. Bloomberg and Steyer’s combined spending was nearly three times as much as the party’s official congressional operation.

Both Democratic super donors are now preoccupied with their own long-shot presidential campaigns. Without Steyer and Bloomberg underwriting their 2020 congressional campaigns, Democrats are likely to lose ground -- regardless of who is at the top of the ticket.

General Qassim Soleimani might be linked to the Benghazi attack too, if so then it's a straight up win for Trump.

The trump dynasty:

Donald Trump Jr and Ivanka Trump among top Republican picks for 2024

Twenty-nine per cent of poll responders want president’s son to be nominee in future election, while 16% support first daughter

Ivanka might be the one to watch out for.
