    I think Bloomberg will be the candidate. To the general public, he seems in control, and he answers the vote dislike of four more Trump years. This election is about Trump power and not any Democrat's ability to create a sensible program for the average joe.

    If Trump is acquitted (looks like he will) and if he is somehow re-elected, the GOP as we knew it is officially fucked...and this country is also officially fucked.

    The DNC convention committees are amazingly bad. It’s like a lineup of Dick Tracy villains, white collar style. There isn’t a single objective figure in the entire bunch. 100% establishment corporatists, many of which with clear and proven biases against currently running candidates.

    You say that like it's a bad thing, while most Trump voters voted for him because he is a puppet of neither party, and is draining the swamps of both parties.

    The Deep State knows no party boundaries.

    John Kerry, in now-deleted expletive-laced tweet, addresses report he was overheard planning 2020 run

    By Gregg Re | Fox News

    Former Secretary of State John Kerry was reportedly overheard in a hotel restaurant Sunday warning of the very real "possibility of Bernie Sanders taking down the Democratic Party -- down whole," according to an NBC News report that sent shockwaves through an already-fractured liberal constituency bracing for a potentially historic Sanders win in Monday's pivotal Iowa caucuses.

    Kerry, in the Renaissance Savery Hotel in Des Moines, Iowa, on the eve of the caucus vote, also reportedly remarked that "maybe I'm f---ing deluding myself here," but that he could conceivably launch a run for president now that donors "have the reality of Bernie" surging in the polls.

    Kerry, who is in town as a Joe Biden surrogate, added that donors such as venture capitalist Doug Hickey would have to "raise a couple of million," and that he would need to leave the board of Bank of America and stop giving paid speeches.


    Immediately after the report broke, Kerry fired off a tweet with an uncharacteristic expletive, as he didn't outright deny that he had been overheard by the reporter saying Sanders posed an existential threat to the Democratic Party.

    He did deny saying he could run or was running for president.

    "As I told the reporter, I am absolutely not running for President," Kerry wrote on Twitter. "Any report otherwise is f---ing (or categorically) false. I’ve been proud to campaign with my good friend Joe Biden, who is going to win the nomination, beat Trump, and make an outstanding president."

    Kerry then quickly deleted the tweet and reposted it without the profanity.

    He separately told NBC News: "This is a complete and total misinterpretation based on overhearing only one side of a phone conversation. A friend who watches too much cable called me wondering whether I’d ever jump into the race late in the game if Democrats were choosing an unelectable nominee. I listed all the reasons I could not possibly do that and would not -- and will not under any circumstances -- do that."

    Incredulous commentators and reporters faulted Kerry for the blunder, even as they recognized that his apparent panic was emblematic of the state of the establishment Democratic Party.

    "I don't know who needs to hear this, but the lobby of the Renaissance Savery in Des Moines the day before the Iowa caucuses is *not* the place to have private conversations," said Brianne Pfannenstiel, a reporter with the Des Moines Register.

    Meanwhile, in an exclusive interview with Fox News' Sean Hannity during the Super Bowl LIV pregame show, President Trump asserted that the Democratic National Committee (DNC) was "rigging the election again" against "crazy Bernie,' after the DNC announced it would change debate rules in a way that would help Mike Bloomberg appear on stage.


    Trump also warned that the left-wing of the Democratic Party is insurgent, and would soon unseat establishment figures. Sanders is backed by prominent far-left-wing Democrats including Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., and Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich.

    "I think she's a very confused, very nervous woman," Trump said, referring to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif, who reluctantly announced impeachment proceedings last year after months of resisting the progressive wing of her party.

    "I don't think she wanted to do this," Trump continued, concerning impeachment. "I think she really knew what was going to happen, and her worst nightmare has happened. I don't think she's gonna be there too long, either. I think that the radical left -- and she's sorta radical left too, by the way -- but I think the radical left is gonna take over."


    At the same time, Trump made clear he had no love for more established Democratic insiders, either, remarking that former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg is quite short.

    "You know, now he wants a box for the debates to stand on," Trump said. "OK, it’s OK, there’s nothing wrong. You can be short. Why should he get a box to stand on, OK? He wants a box for the debates. Why should he be entitled to that? Really. Does that mean everyone else gets a box? ... I would love to run against Bloomberg."

    Fox News' Andrew O'Reilly and The Associated Press contributed to this report.

    Please provide a link where Bloomberg has stated he wants a box to stand on. Only a fool believes someone that has accounted for over 16,000 lies since he took office. You are so easily duped by a pathological liar.

    I can see Putin now as he watches the impeachment hearings, laying there in his bed, bare chested, playing with his nipples, and pleasuring himself.
