I'm so exciting! This is one of the very few major party candidates I would consider voting for.  Hopefully there is enough thirst for open and free non partisan thought out there to give her a chance, but I fear her problem will be more on the left than the middle and right.

The Election Circus Begins 🤡
It is January 2019. This signals the start of the 2020 election circus. Sen. Elizabeth Warren is the first big-name Democrat on stage. But we will soon be deluged with candidates, bizarre antics and endless commentary by fatuous TV and radio pundits. The hyperventilating, the constant polling, the updates on who has the largest campaign war chest, the hypothetical matches between this hopeful and that hopeful, the mocking tweets by Donald Trump, will, as we saw in the 2016 election campaign, have as much relevance to our lives and political future as the speculation on cable sports channels about next year’s football season. This farce takes the place of genuine political life. (...)

That is indeed profound being a former resident of what is now district 48.  The OC has completely flipped to now be the DC.

One of the interesting things to me is that infrastructure spending is mentioned as a politically palatable option that could potentially nip a recession in the bud  if applied judiciously.

I guess Trumpsters are going to have to hope that GOP leadership does it for him, like everything else.
 
i think trump wants to spend a ton of money on infrastructure

i know there was interest and i think he floated something out there

but not sure what happened

i wouldn't doubt his willingness to spend a few trillion dollars

I've had problems with the phrase "pre-existing conditions" also - wouldn't "existing conditions" mean the same thing?  Apparently it's an old phrase though, and its more recent origins are in the insurance industry - of course.  It was used in 1599 as well.

It'll never happen because when Obama threw a bunch of money at "shovel-ready" projects to help arrest a free-fall, the GOP just howled. The only way the GOP could get behind a big infrastructure spending action would be for them to all suddenly turn hypocritical and support something they recently fought against and that's sure not likely.
 
No rebuilding of infrastructure.  No addressing climate change.

We're going to roll the dice!
