2020 Presidential Race

Of course it’s a real job and if a county sheriff’s net worth was over 20 times his salary over his given tenure term limits would be the least of his worries.
Just trying to zero in on what is a legitimate job and what is not.
So some elected positions with no term limits are real jobs.
 
Sanders Criminal Justice Adviser Caught Plotting Violent Jailbreak

Police say radical activist stole prison blueprints, stashed guns and ammo in facility

A former adviser on criminal justice issues to Sen. Bernie Sanders (I., Vt.) was plotting a violent prison escape, stashing guns and ammunition inside a soon-to-be-opened prison, authorities said this week.

Nashville police said Wednesday that Alex Friedmann, a prison reform advocate who helped shape the Vermont senator's criminal justice agenda, spent months plotting an escape for inmates of the city's detention center. Sanders worked with Friedmann to develop positions on criminal justice in the lead up to his 2016 presidential campaign—positions Sanders still touts.

Davidson County sheriff Daron Hall, at a press conference on Wednesday, said Friedmann hid at least three loaded guns upon breaking into the detention center in December. The break-in was part of "an extremely deliberate and, in my opinion, evil plan" Friedmann developed "over many months," Hall said.

"What disturbed me most is not that this was about an escape, it was also about loss of life," Hall added. "Mr. Friedmann, a convicted felon and self-described criminal justice advocate, planted loaded guns with additional ammunition inside the detention center."

Friedmann, while managing editor at Prison Legal News and associate director at the Human Rights Defense Center (HRDC), helped Sanders go beyond his usual focus on economic issues in 2015. Acting as a consultant for the senator's office, Friedmann called for Sanders to adopt progressive criminal justice positions such as the abolition of private prisons. Sanders's current presidential campaign promises to ban private prisons.

It’s an election year , if any of the lefts candidates could pull this many people in every state, we would be seeing them on CNN every night somewhere .
Luths response is complacent. People camping out overnight in temperature in the teens. Standing in line all day in 29° weather.

Elizabeth Warren, Who Said She Wouldn’t Take ‘A Dime’ From Super PACs, Is Now Accepting Support From A Super PAC

Sen. Elizabeth Warren, who vowed when she announced her White House bid in 2019 not to take “a dime of PAC money in this campaign,” refused Thursday to disavow a super PAC raising money to support her candidacy.

“Do you want the super PAC supporting you to stand down?” a reporter asked Warren outside of a campaign stop in Nevada. The super PAC in question, Persist PAC, formed this week to support the Massachusetts Democrat.

“So look, the first day I got in this race over a year ago, I said I hope every presidential candidate that comes in will agree, no super PACs for any of us,” Warren replied.

“I’ve renewed that call dozens of times, and I couldn’t get a single Democrat to go along with it,” she said.

Warren defended her about-face on super PAC money in terms of gender and told reporters that she and Sen. Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota were the only Democratic presidential candidates who did not have super political action committees supporting their campaigns.

Trump Ads Will Take Over YouTube’s Homepage on Election Day

The campaign has secured one of the most high-profile spots on the internet.

In the immediate run up to the U.S. presidential election and on Election Day, the homepage of YouTube is set to advertise just one candidate: Donald Trump.

The president’s re-election campaign purchased the coveted advertising space atop the country’s most-visited video website for early November, said two people with knowledge of the transaction. The deal ensures Trump will be featured prominently in the key days when voters across the country prepare to head to the polls Nov. 3.


While the bulk of digital ad spending typically focuses on targeting specific messages to certain audiences, the top spot on YouTube is more akin to a Super Bowl TV ad. About three-quarters of U.S. adults say they use YouTube, exceeding the reach of even Facebook, according to the Pew Research Center.

Those aren't the home prices of a rich man. Surly they are wrong.
All right, this does it.

I'd love for the Socialist-loving base your boy panders to hear you tell them that $2.5 million in home assets doesn't qualify someone as a "rich man."

Have you ever even actually witnessed poverty? Or, lower-middle America, for that matter?

FYI: that's TEN TIMES the median home value in America. One home $750,000 or up makes you a 5 percenter. I would guess $2.5 gets you to 1%.

Care to define rich?
 
Yes and no. Incumbents getting to the 46% range tend to get re-elected. Gallup has him at 49. RCP average is over 46. I believe both Clinton and Obama were in the mid-upper 40s when they were reelected. He's at his highest levels with Rs and I's now. D's are almost uniformly against him but that won't be enough.

Importantly, the right direction/wrong direction numbers are the highest now since 2005.

Provided there isn't a major economic meltdown, Trump is the likely winner even if he's around 46% in the polls - people choose known over unknown.
Especially this year when the most likely Dem candidate will be on the far left of the party

Yet, it's the left-wing media that's crazy. SMDH.
