The capitalist economy he calls 'racist' has treated Beto O'Rourke very well

    Note how the Lame Stream Media tricked the Demo Collective.....coffee shop filled with more reporters than Iowans. Warren had 3 times the people show up for her visit to Iowa.

    But barely any coverage by the Lame Stream Media.

    The Democrats are planning to lose 2020 on purpose and run off with the cash and use it for 2024 to get Nancy Pelosis relative gavin Newsom elected.

    Your post contains an interesting, and very revealing observation.

    You said of Trump..."There's nothing to say a wealthy person can't run on a populist message. Trump did it successfully even though he's a billionaire. But he was selling his wealth as evidence of his success and as a badge for people to envy."

    You have all kinds of complaints for a candidate who talks about how the American system is unequal and racist.

    But Trump never said any of that, so he's OK, but Beto is not...…..humm. Seems to me that he and Elizabeth Warren has put their finger on two of the main causes of frustration in the general population, the tilting of the table towards extreme wealth and the stacking of the deck to keep it that way.

    Then you say " But he was selling his wealth as evidence of his success and as a badge for people to envy."

    So, you voted for Trump because you "envied" his wealth? He promised you nothing, and has delivered even less. But that's OK, because he plays to your white resentment without committing to do anything for you, and you're OK with that.

    And, while you can read O Rourke's financial, you'll never see your fuhrer. And he is only worth a fraction of the fantasy he spun for you. Trump the guy worth $10 billion is another one of Trump's in your face lies.

    But you're OK with being conned. You seem to be, because you keep going right back for more!

    I heard that as well.

    Pelosi isn't happy with the new "justice" democrats, the DNC realizes they won't win at this pace.

    So they are going to appease the leftists in the party this time around, in hopes of increasing chances of being elected in 2024.

    Why did Trump want to make America great again when he was thriving as a yugely successful business man?

    Your argument is not convincing.

    I voted for Trump and he's delivered.

    My argument? I simply repeated your own words back to you.

    You said that Trump peddled his image as a billionare to be envied. Those are your words.

    You apparantly didn't expect him to do anything for you.

    Of couse, the commercial real estate industry laughed out loud when Trump claimed he was worth $10 billion. Most of them were sure he wasn't a billionaire at all.

    And Trump's own self declared financial statments say so too. He wasn't worth $10 billion when he claimed he was . Six months later he filed papers saying he was worth $1.8 billion. A year later, it was down to $1.4.

    But he fooled you. And you apparantly seem to be determined to stay fooled!

    Bobby isn't just a "white" man's name.

    I've quoted you directly twice now.

    Your words, as I quoted them directly, are right there in your OP.

    I know you Trumpsters have conveniently short attention spans. But this is ridiculous.

    He didn’t change his name to appeal to Hispanic voters. He picked an Americanized name, not related to race, but general so that people could pronounce it easier
