The Democrat Primary Race Is Filling Up

[Twangbanger]

The GOP likes to talk tough on immigration, but the Chamber of Commerce likes having lots of illegals that they can take advantage of with lower wages and no benefits. The Chamber carries a lot of weight in the GOP. So i would never count on them doing the right thing.

Frankly, with the number of companies who would love to kick employees off their group plans under Medicare for All - I'm not even sure we can trust the GOP on that issue. For now, the Insurance Companies are keeping the GOP in line. But there are many more "other" types of companies who would benefit from getting rid of private insurance (basically anyone who offers group coverage). The only reason they're not winning out in the GOP currently, is because the Insurance Companies are a more unified, organized (and louder) voice, despite their small size.

Medicare premium paid to the government each month: $135. Supplemental premium with insurance carrier: $138. Part D prescription premium with insurer: $26. Total monthly premium: $299. And this premium package is low compared with many people who have health issues or high deductibles to control monthly premiums.


Now.... please explain to me where medicare for all is "free ****".

So in the saga of the almost daily “Old Uncle Joe’s gaffe” !

Looks like “creepy Joe” said there was no Russian interference during his watch?
https://www.redstate.com/sister-tol...tion-interference-wouldnt-didnt-happen-watch/

So that would in fact establish no reason for a Russian interference investigation into President Tump and prove that it was a political move?

I am may not be the smartest guy around but how is “Ol Joe” gonna do if he is the one writing the stuff the President Trump is going to use against him.

Of course, Joe and Barrack kept those nasty Russians from interfering in our elections and Trump is absolutely guilty of helping the Russians interfere in our elections which didn't happen because Joe and Barrack stopped it before it got started so it didn't happen, but it did and that nasty, evil, Russian spy, Trump did it.

Wish it read “Swalwell expected to fall down a manhole tomorrow”

 

[Brad69]

Meanwhile “Ol Joe” admits he was wrong? Nobody really knows why he is sorry but he is !
Sen. Harris says she doesn’t support federally mandated Busing now but she did in the 70’s ?
I personally was anti riding a bus when I was six but I guess she was extra “WOKE”?

I caught the second half of this over the weekend. It was interesting, despite one of the producers fan-girl gushing about Cory Booker.

Try to convince Iowa voters they need to eliminate border guards, and raise taxes to pay for the "free" healthcare.
And that it's all their fault.

At the risk of both stating the obvious and perpetuating a stereotype, the Dems don't know much about running a business.

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2019-06-21/dnc-may-2019-fundraising-fec-filing

The DNC raised $6.9 million in May and spent $7.3 million, according to its latest filing with the Federal Election Commission. Overall, the party has spent $3.3 million more than it’s raised in 2019.

As the article points out, some of that problem is understandable (like people giving to individual dems right now, in preparation for the primaries). But, it further describes the obstacles that any Dem POTUS candidate has to overcome.

And these are the people that want us to give them control of a red hot economy. Yeah, OK.

Well in the saga of “creepy Joes” kinda lost!

Joe thinks President Tump is not tough enough on China’s stealing intellectual property?

https://www.factcheck.org/2019/07/bidens-stretch-on-intellectual-property-theft/

Its bad when you say China not a threat and then it is and President Tump isn’t doing anything!

Gillibrand the (I just wanna get some ranch woman) is on a “broken promises” tour telling how President Trump has broke promises and how she will fix everything!
https://triblive.com/local/pittsbur...outs-health-care-policies-in-pittsburgh-stop/

Somebody might wanna tell her she needs to win the nomination of the Democratic Party before she runs against President DJT ?
Gillibrand is polling at about .03%

 

[JettaKnight]

Brad, in case you haven't seen them, do a search for "Biden" on the The Onion.

Hey - did I see that there's some new Democrat that I didn't recognize joining the race?

One drops out, another one drops in?
