Would rather he didn’t but I doubt I will ever vote R for any position above dogcatcher ever again. So if he wins the primary I would end up voting for him.
Nope, and he doesn’t want to. He would not be a good president. What be would be good at is a cabinet position. Maybe even a legislator, though he’d have to figure out how to pick good staff for that job.
Is Zelenskyy a good president?
Honestly? Under the circumstances, I’d say he’s an outstanding president overall.
And what would you say his primary qualifications and experience were before his election?
Well, he’s not a billionaire, unlike his predecessor. I generally view rich people in politics negatively as a rule.
That said: I do think Poroshenko did as well as he could, considering he was elected after Russia invaded the Donbas in response to Ukraine revolting and throwing his super Russia-friendly predecessor (who “won” the election with a lot of Russian help, hence the revolt) out.
No, he would only split the votes for Dems and give Trump an easy win
Op did not specify this election
He didn’t specify what election, so I specified this one
That’s not the way it works
Ah yes, the token argument that establishment Democrats use when a reasonable candidate who isn’t theirs comes along
You think Biden running on the democratic ticket, trump on the republican, and Stewart on an independent ticket would have no impact on the election for Democrats?
Not what I’m saying at all. I’m fully aware that the “fringe candidate” would “steal” votes from the establishment candidate, but honestly? I’d take another Trump presidency if it actually lit a fire under the Democratic Party’s ass and got them to start endorsing candidates who voters actually want, rather than minimally focusing on being the lesser of two evils. The Republican Party deserves all the shit they get, but you gotta hand it to them, at least they’re backing candidates that their voters actually want.
I would expect him to run against Biden in the democratic primary and not pursue the office as an independent if he lost, like Bernie did.
Is he younger than 77 years old? Then yes.
(77 is 4 years less than the life expectancy in the US)
Which is what 50% of people should expect to reach…
Awesome username! Lol
The last populist TV personality worked out great, so why not?
Is Jon Stewart considered a populist?
For what reason? He’s never held a public office AFAIK. His personal politics are irrelevant with that in mind
Didn’t we throw that litmus test out the window with 45?
Some people did. The results were less than satisfactory in my eyes
