Trump owes his election to a hand full of votes in a hand full of counties.

It doesn't take much to foul an election.

who does he appeal to ?

Where most people think they know what’s going on but really aren’t paying attention at all.

What about someone who loves starbucks? Who has always liked him from there? Someone who thinks here is a businessman who didn’t file bankruptcy.

Personally though I turned the tv on in the middle of his talking didn’t recognize him at first and thought it was a Republican talking.

In the smaller states he wouldn’t have to take many votes to threaten the dem candidate.

likely to vote republican will vote for him.

And believes in mostly democrat positions. The only republican I could see voting for him would be young pro choice ones. How many of them actually vote?

if they don't they DO NOT care for abortion rights.

But the point is we have a ton of people that vote on a damn whim. Who ever feels good to them for whatever reason.

More than likely, he won't do any better than the typical 3rd party candidate.

the Republican? Deep inside most of us know that "Independents" are seldom actually working for liberal values.

They run as Democrats-but-better. Whether it's true or not it is the Democratic nominee who always loses more votes to them.

And then 2012. And then 2008. And then 2004. And, well, every presidential election.

I don't know where you got the idea that 3rd party candidates only hurt the Democratic nominee.

politicians and he will hurt dump more

The Russians who were indicted by Mueller were boosting Bernie Sanders and Trump. If the Starbucks exec gets help from Russian operatives he may become a factor.

He said "Read my lips. No new taxes." and then approved new taxes. How dare he?!

We don't know who the Democratic candidate will be yet, but will ANY of them inspire defection to a throwaway vote for a third party, knowing the stakes? Jill Stein got a whopping 1% of the vote in 2016, despite some Democrats dislike of Clinton. I think we learned our lesson in 2000.

but this guy does not have that.

that a moneyed person like Mark Cuban would bring.

who himself could not run . but they have a certain personality and following that gets attention .

the starbucks guy is a lincoln chafee type .

He invented the small means tall scam. Go into starbucks, ask for a small coffee. You will receive and be charged for a "tall" . The ACTUAL small is called "short," is not on the menu, nor are the baristas allowed to mention it unless you say the magic code word "short" and it is the cheaper option. Total scam.

Do not trust this man.

would ever set foot in a Starbucks.

The only thing worse than their business model is the taste of their coffee.

and would not buy another cup. That should sort this one out quickly.

I find it incredibly foolish.

.

Worse yet. Is this the asshole who thinks Pike's Place is a good tasting blend and forces it on the stores?

.

introduce "pour over" as an alternative. I think a lot of people will not drink that, which is their default brew. I will say it is slightly better iced as a latte, but only if you have some to get rid of (as I did).

.

He has almost no followers and seems to like China.

.

tend to lie about that big time. I don't believe for a moment that this billionaire could possibly be stupid or delusional enough to buy into the stuff he was pushing about us on 60 Minutes. He's casting out the usual bait to draw those who are.

I want to hear he doesn't have Sanders' or Palin's talent in order to go back to waiting for someone who does.

He can't be serious.
