I don't know why former NYC mayor Michael Bloomberg decided not to Run. This would have been his to loose.




Simple, a Bloomberg candidacy would split the moderate republican votes to the benefit of the Democrats.

Trump will be the next POTUS coz most of Sanders supporters are saying that they won't vote for Hillary in the general elections.

dream on. Trump only has 40% repubican. the rest will not vote. Hillary has 60% democrats and majority independents. fanya hesabu!




Most rational Republicans dont support Trump and are unlikely to vote for him in Novemeber IF he ends up as the party's nominee. As a matter of fact some of them may switch sides to Clinton.
Whatever the case, US politics continue to confound.


They shouldn't replace someone with his wife at the white house.


This will be more of making 2 histories

Bloomberg is a three time mayor of New York, twice on a Republican ticket and each time winning strong support from Republican voters.

In theory a serious run by Bloomberg would require Republican support from where he can appeal to moderate Democrats who are put off by that disgusting woman Hillary.

If Kenya elected two persons accused of "crime against humanity" to the highest office on land, I have no doubt that @Trump will tramp upon the democrats and be the next POTUS.

Is this to be taken as an insight on who Donald Trump might be - or part thereof
Quote:
In March, Senecal was the subject of a New York Times profile that offered unique insight into Trump’s world through the man who served him for nearly three decades. In the Times story — which also described Senecal’s transition, at Trump’s insistence, from Mar-a-Lago butler to unofficial historian following his retirement 2009 — is filled with details both fascinating and banal about the presidential hopeful, from his preference for rock-hard steak to his penchant for white lies and exaggerations.

Based on Senecal’s references to Trump as “the king” and anecdotes such as one about the time he hired a bugler to play “Hail to the Chief” to lift his boss’ spirits, the Times story suggests that the former butler has long been ready for a Trump White House. The piece also alluded to Senecal’s contempt for Democratic rival candidate Hillary Clinton, simply noting that during his interview with the paper, Senecal “offered a profane description for Mrs. Clinton, the frontrunner in the Democratic presidential race.”

Senecal’s latest Facebook post, published by Mother Jones on Thursday, offers a clue as to what that description may have been.

“I cannot believe that a common murder [sic] is even allowed to run (killery clinton),” reads one line in the post that is laced with expletives and exclamation points.

Trump is actually polling very well against Hilly Clinty. They are dead even in swing states like Ohio and Florida

Trump is a master at espousing issues that the public is concerned about , simplifying them and coming up with what seems like an easy common sense solution.

You see the American public does not have the patience for nuanced arguments. In a campaign rally you have to explain something in 10 seconds.

- So there is illegal immigration --> Build a wall
- So there are terrorists in our midst --> Ban all muslims
- So China is taking American jobs --> Impose tariffs
- So ISIS is dangerous --> Bomb the heck out of ISIS

etc etc

And Hillary does not help hserself because she does so many things that alienate the liberal base.

Remember that Hillary used to be a republican. And not only that, she worked for ultra conservative Barry Goldwater. Unfortunately she still has many right wing tendencies that are alienating the liberal base.

There is political revolution globally - seemingly.

- Trump will likely be US president soon.
- And if not Trump, Hillary - meaning - Bill Clinton - again.
- In Philippines they have voted in Rodrigo Duterte...in such a catholicly pious country.

It all 'started' in Kenya 3 years ago when the then ICC-convicted duo were voted even as choices were going to have consequences.

Move over traditional opposition politicians of yore... Tshikendi, Tzavigirai, Bisigye, (nameless from KE), Bush... we shall now lay carpet for Le Pens, Corbyns and their vitreous ilk. Whence cometh a Kenyan trumpy, dutertean, penish Corbyn?
