Who else thinks Beto will run for president in 2020

Post by Grudge »

I think that even if he fails to win from Texas for senate, he has still shown that he has considerable grassroots mobilization-fund drawing power. With a strong result from Texas that will be evidence that he will be able to mobilize many on-the-fence voters during the Presidential elections.

He's better off in the Senate - honestly. but if that fails (seems unlikely at this point considering how unpopular ted cruz has become) I would vote for him in 2020.

He will lose in the senate race, but it will be a dignified loss since losing strongly in Texas by itself will be a strong achievement.

i have no doubt that's his intended trajectory but i doubt if you could do it without taking the senate first.

whatever the case, i have no faith the democrats will field a candidate that can beat bag of diarrhea inside another, bigger bag of diarrhea in 2020

I keep hearing people saying this.... and if you don't bother to vote, then you're right.

but if you do care, vote straight ticked blue from your local elections down to the fucking dog catcher to the top of the state and federal levels.

at this point it doesn't even matter if some of them end up being incompetent - there will be enough decent people to enact change for the better. anything is better than the pure fucking evil we have now.

with respect to presidential contests my vote in the general election is almost entirely irrelevant so i am much more interested in what the party machinery plans to foist on us

the last thing the world needs is another rerun of obama and the congressional majorities he squandered

we're all doomed anyway who fuckin' cares

watched the debate last night and maybe I'm biased because I already like Beto but he clearly won.
he's not the greatest orator ever because he does throw in a lot of "ums" while he's talking but damn - talk about inspirational.
his answers felt real and from the heart, you could tell he sincerely believed in Texas and that it has the potential to be something greater than it is,
encouraging people to put their differences aside and work together.

on the other hand - ted cruz was a slimy piece of shit who had nothing of value to add except for canned responses and hate.
