I have bad mouth StarBucks coffee for years. Overpriced cheap beans burnt roasted and flavored with all kinds of other stuff. It is too a bad I don't drink the mud he serves so I could boycott him.

Anyhoo, he is CLEARLY not running on any kind of Democratic platform so I ain't mad at him. Besides he is not going to be able to stick around and be relevant for the next 18 months or whatever. He definitely does not have 'it'.
