Hot takes on the Democratic frontrunners

Good pension plan, great fringe benefits, and for the first lady those secret service guys are kind of hunky.

He lies so often that any discussion of liars must always discuss the worst - The Don.

Nobody cares what her heritage is - except wacko extremists - who also lied about a birthing movement. And knew they were lying. Why do you not apologize for that lie?

If ads served up to me on social media mean anything, this is a race between Trump and Bloomberg, and Bloomberg is going to win. By a landslide.

Right now the momentum seems to be with Bernie. He could lose if he completely alienates the middle and young people don't turnout. I think he'd win unless voter suppression is super effective.

You guys aren't getting all the Bloomberg ads? Maybe it's because I'm in Virginia. It's remarkable how many. And he's not even officially a candidate yet.

You mean he'll win if enough dead people can be persuaded to vote, yeah?

Isn't he the nut who limited the size of soft drinks people could buy in NYC?

ETA: Meh, I've seen pictures of his daughters. If Ivanka stays, Trump still gets the dirty old man vote.

Nothing matters until after Iowa. History repeatedly demonstrates it.

It matters, it just doesn't reveal itself until after Iowa.

Whatever he's doing, it's not in Texas. But we almost never get political ads of any kind here, and I'm not on Facebook.

I'm not sure Bloomberg gets how fed up America is with rich guys from NYC.

He hit the football games over the weekend, but I'm not sure tv is a great place to reach folks anymore. He'll reach the older boomers there I guess.

Why are rich guys from WA (Bill Gates) admired? America should be tired of rich guys who even encourage KKK, White Supremacists and Nazis. Who inspire hate and derision. Its not rich guys.

Who does Fox News interview after the murder of Soleimani? The many guys who lied about Saddam's WMDs and who openly endorsed torture.

Unfortunately American has a large militaristic mentality inspired by bigger guns, hate of anyone who is productive, innovative, or different, and a need to 'wreck shit'. Fox News (the real fake news) openly promotes this hatred and derision. Only some rich guys get support by endorsing and encouraging extremists. Using same techniques pioneered by Hitler. No reason to paint all with the same brush.
