By the way, Trump couldn't win his home state but that didn't stop the snake from slithering into the White House.  I suspect that if Trump had held an actual position in public office, people would have gotten a glimpse into his abhorrent governing style and crossed him off the list.  Of course, NYers would never have elected him mayor.

I keep forgetting that Julian Castro is running, even though I know at one point he was kind of a Democratic party darling. His day may come down the road, I suppose. Once you get past him on the list I pretty much don't know the rest of the field at all, except Yang and De Blasio. Yang is a little before his time too. I think he's right about automation, but those ideas won't become mainstream until we are closer to disaster.  Assuming Trump doesn't end all our troubles by getting us nuked first, of course.

I mostly associate Castro and his brother with the hope that someday we will win anything in Texas, which I don't see coming anytime soon. 

 

I haven't followed Yang much but his supporters give me Bernie bro vibes.

AMEN to that as well.

 

 

Ironically, he wouldn't feel this overwhelming urge to save us from ourselves if he hadn't grandstanded mere days before the election by pouring MORE salt into Hillary's email wounds.  To me, Comey's part of the reason why we're here, so I am uninterested in anything he has to say, thank you very much.

 

 

IDK if it's that no one cares, or that the media has done such a fantastic job making mountains out of molehills (while diverting our attentions away from REAL issues) that we're simply burned out from the many, many, MANY scandals we've had to follow.  But, then again, maybe this is all going precisely according to TrumpCo.'s plans: wear us all down with inane and trivial [!@#$%^&*], so that we're too weak to fight the battles (such as this one and the one @DramatistDreamer has posted) that REALLY count.
