It doesn’t matter who the Democrats run, Trump’s people will find (or make up) dirt on them, the Russian bots will run with it, and the gullible among us will vote for Trump again.
All we can do is run the person most likely to beat Trump. Good luck figuring that one out.
I hope we aren’t going to let the perfect be the enemy of the good. We already lost Al Franken that way. We’ve got a lot more on the line in 2020.

What? You expected less mudslinging with Trump? Digging up dirt, real or imagined, on his opponents has been his M O for 2 decades. I expect the mudslinging to reach new levels we have never seen before. The woman who stepped forward with this story about Biden is Lucy Flores, a Nevada Democrat. The common thought is that she decided to go public to help her chosen candidate, Bernie Sanders. There is going to be a lot of mudslinging as 16 democrats vie for the nomination or do you think they're above that? www.nytimes.com/2019/03/31/us/politics/lucy-flores-biden-accuser.html

I've always thought Joe Biden was too handsy and did not want him to run last time around. It's not appropriate, no matter his intentions. That said, we need someone who can WIN. And if he runs and is nominated, I will vote for him.
Also, I'm concerned the media did not learn their lesson from last election. Their focus/glee over Hillary's emails is one of the reasons we have Trump in the White House. This story about Lucy Flores broke last week, and it's still on the news this morning. That's more than enough coverage.

Seriously, if trump can admit to, “grabbing them by the pussy” and still be elected dictator, how do you feel about this latest scandal with Biden? Will we ever have a candidate like Mother Theresa? Right??!! Not that sexual harrassment is ever appropriate... The pussy grabbing comment along with a plethora of others should have sunk Trump's ship. One Trumper on my FB page said what Biden did is worse than Trump because Trump's was just locker room talk, not real action. So, there's why it never sunk his ship. SMH

Some are some aren’t. But I just don’t understand why anyone is surprised with Trump involved since that’s standard for him. Frankly after the election last fall I’d be surprised if any Republican ran a clean campaign without mudslinging. The ads the rnc ran in my state last fall were just plain nasty & 1/2 true at BEST. Any candidate who allows nastiness & purposefully misleading 1/2 truths about thier opponent like that to be broadcast in thier favor is complicit imo wether it’s from them or some group they had formed to try to keep thier name clean. Goes for Democrats too, but I haven’t seen it recently from them. Last fall in the ads I heard they pretty much said nothing about thier opponents directly just ran on healthcare- but I’ll admit I don’t have cable or local tv so I might have been out of the loop on nasty tv ads. Personally I prefer a candidate tell me what it is about themselves that I should know. I do not need to know a candidates opinion if thier opponents. I can read, learn & form my own opinion about thier opponent. Give me a website with your platform CLEARLY laid out and details of how you plan to get there. Do not give me a website with a bunch of meaningless word salad & negatives about your opponent. That says to me that you have nonplatform & no method to get there.

We're sunk with that kind of faulty reasoning.

Yes the man is touchy-feely but I don’t believe it’s inappropriate sadly I do believe that this lady has an agenda but I wanted to show off another face of mr Binden .
This is only the first tweet there is 4 or 5 that follows
I do believe that he is qualified to become the next president but I also believe that he is too old .
