Trump represents the modern conservative male and they love him for allowing them to finally be themselves.

Yep, his election was vindication that America agrees with them, even though it wasn’t… and I don’t believe that he will win re-election at this point.
Although, my dad was watching the campaign stop in Florida last night. Sigh…It’s June 2019…
No not really.
Any Dem’s Challenge Bamma? How about Clinton?

So you find Trump equivalent to Obama and Clinton? I guess that says it all.
I mean, sure, hate their policy all you want, but Obama and Clinton weren’t liars.
For example, I would never make this thread back in the bush days - and I despised Bush’s policies. But he was a decent human being who represented america well on the world stage, and had some dignity and treated others with the same.
Trump…jesus, what is there to say? Your party is holding up a man who calls people - people he nominated and used to support! - horrible names! I mean, come on…
Barack Obama didn’t spend years lying to the American people and finding new ways to embarrass us on the world stage on an almost daily basis. So no, we didn’t feel the need to challenge him.
Do you believe Trump’s constant lying, criminal behavior, and the disgusting way he treats others represents you positively?
Actually, the fact that you see “TDS” so much is because you don’t have anything new. Just TDS.
There’s nothing more to be said about that. (shrug)

That’s so nice a left-wing extremist worried about the GOP.
What moderate democrats? They have become extinct.
They weren’t?
Odd.

Right now, he’s probably the only likely option for beating whatever Dem floats to the top of the septic tank.
And I don’t get to decide whether other GOP candidates will stand up to challenge him.
As it stands now, that’s what I’ll be doing.
My view of Obama and Clinton parallels your view of Trump.
Imagine that.
It looks that way to a lib.
It looks totally opposite to me.

The fact that you just made that statement shows how extreme your positions have become.
Then tell me who are the moderate democrat?
This should be good.
Surely that is a completely facile argument that because there were no challengers to B Obama and B Clinton that should preclude a challenge to D Trump?
Surely D Trump’s lack of leadership with respect to the lack of progress in providing the necessary money to look after the first responders’ health care as a consequence of the terrorist attacks on the 9th September, 2001 demonstrates, yet again, another reason why he is not fit for office.
In Michigan, we have Haley Stevens who is a pretty moderate politician in district 11. We also have Elissa Slotkin in MI-08. Our governor is a moderate democrat as well. Of course, we have Democrats who are one the left side in Rashida Talib in district 13 and the attorney general here as well.
Both of the first two are fairly in the middle ground on Capitol Hill. That is, unless your definition of “middle ground” is located on the extreme right of the political spectrum.
Trump says fake news like people here say TDS.
Irony.
I mean, sure, hate their policy all you want, but Obama and Clinton weren’t liars.
Are they running for President?
But back to the topic, no one wants to have a novelty presidential run just to say Trump is bad especially when most in the GOP hide their heads and try not to say anything negative about trump so he doesn’t mock them on twitter and get them primaried. The GOP is Trump.
Moderate Dems (IMO):
John Delaney
Beto O’Rouke
Amy Klobuchar
Joe Biden
Pete Buttigieg
These are all pretty much middle ground candidates.
