New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio is expected to announce he’s running for president next week. Three sources with knowledge of the plans told the New York Daily News the announcement could come Wednesday, on de Blasio’s birthday. “He´s moving forward; he thinks this is a once in a lifetime opportunity. He´s looking at the current field and thinks there´s no other time when he can run. He has a record and has been an underdog in primaries before,” a source close to de Blasio told the Washington Examiner in late April. “He thinks he can do well with

No high rises allowed in New York? Now that´s a really good record to run on!

This is great news. More donor money wasted, another clown added to the Clown Car, more whackjob theories. It just can´t get much better.
When Trump bested the Republican field of 19, it strengthened his position with the middle class and Political Middle. The winner of the Democrat nomination will most likely have to go Left and Crazy. That´s a hard pivot in a few months to November.

If further proof were needed to attest to the fact that De Blasio is delusional this is it. America is SO READY for a man who loves socialism, is married to a black lesbian, and a man who mysteriously changed his name from Warren Wilhelm to Bill De Blasio. What could possibly be wrong with this picture? I´m sure that in the heartland of America they will be totally understanding of this moron and earnestly support his candidacy. NOT!

Do even two-thirds of these idiots think they are even remotely qualified to be president?

His chances will be greatly improved - - because he plans to run as Bill De Blasio Italian and Jewish areas - - and as Warren Wilhelm in German and English ones.
I´m afraid he´s going to be unbeatable.

Ahh, my idiot mayor.
High as a kite most days according to members of his security.
Up to his neck in bribes from the real estate lobby, and will knock down any landmark that gets in his way.

I think, after this election, a new law should be passed that anyone in public office should have to QUIT the job they have before running for president. I think a lot of these people are running just to put on their resume they were a "presidential candidate"! I think a lot of the Dem Candidates know they don´t have a Snowball´s chance in Hell of being the Nominee. If they had to give up their current job to run we wouldn´t see them in the lineup on the Stage!

Ok, now I am starting to suspect that all those who might be indicted are jumping into the race, so that they can claim they are being pursued due to their candidacy.

This guy is an utter loon. Lives in a fog of pot smoke, takes a SUV and an entourage of flunkies in a caravan to his Brooklyn Heights gym every morning. Lets the homeless sleep, shoot up and crap in the best neighborhoods. Married a black lesbian who has caused several million dollars in city funds to disappear. No greater loser in American politics.

Exactly. The majority of these "candidates" know full well they don´t have a snowball´s chance of winning the nomination, but this is an opportunity for them to "up" their profile from local/state to national.
Perfect example - who knew who Mayor Buttplug was a month ago? Now the entire nation knows. The fake Mexican is another good example. These posers are building their so-called political careers.
It also doesn´t hurt that it brings cash into their campaign coffers. That´s why there´s 22 (and counting) of these clowns. Kirsten Gillibrand? John Hickenlooper? Seriously?

I have got to believe that for most of these “candidates”, and I use that term very loosely, it’s all about the Benjamins.

I can see why he would want to run for President: Having nearly finished destroying New York City, he needs bigger and better things to destroy; And since Cuomo will probably have destroyed New York State by the time the next election comes along, there is no point in running for governor.... On to destroying an entire nation.

Actually it´s simply about CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTIONS which they get to keep. DeBas et al have long since paid off those who are now "contributing" and will happily go away with their payoffs.
President Trump does not need or want payoffs. President Trump wants to expose their GAME.
Doing a dam fine job of it so far.

Re: Reply 20 - Candidates can keep unspent campaign contributions/´Benjamins´. The money cannot be used for personal expenses. However, unless the following info is incorrect, it can be donated to a foundation that they control.

Can I send a campaign donation for 10 ¢? It will cost several dollars to process it, but he can then claim he has small donor support.

They figured out they can keep the unspent campaign contributions under certain circumstances...put it into a ´foundation´ and squeeze it out into their pockets, a-la-clinton foundation...

A fake Indian; a Jamaican floozie who publicly acts like a cross between Hamilton Burger and Roseanne Rosannadanna; a skateboarding cokeheaded 50-year-old manchild; a gay Burgermeister of a town actually named “South Bend”; a crooked lisping 60’s radical communist millionaire thief; a surfer boy/Gila monster hybrid; an attorney/rattlesnake hybrid (or did he drop out?); a token Asian who thinks #MeToo is about running for President; a black Homer Simpson look alike; Joe Biden and now Big Bird with a fake name, a lesbian wife and no brains. These must be the lengths needed to make Hillary look like a serious candidate.

Vote for that communist and give up my Hoffman hot dogs? I don´t think so. Jellobrand wants to pay you $600 of taxpayer money to vote for her. How is that legal?
