I didn't know it was possible to go further left than Hillary.

Bernie Sanders? That's who immediately popped into my head as "further left than Hillary".

    It's interesting to think what would have happened if Trump had run as a Democrat and won. I have very little doubt he would have spent the last 2 years getting bashed by conservatives and supported by liberals.

 

He is a very moderate pub, minus evangelical act

Bernie still has a large fanbase. If Bernie runs I predict the mainstream media will turn on him like they did with Trump.

The entire Democrat party has lost its mind, and, ironically, Schultz is standing against the nutcases far more than any Republican (other than Pres. Trump) has done.

Agree. They have gone off the deep end. No moderate any longer. The Kavanagh show was embarrassing. They knew ford was lying

A Blue Dog Democrat is a member of Congress who is moderate or more conservative in their voting record and political philosophy than other, more liberal, Democrats in the House and Senate. The Blue Dog Democrat, however, has become an increasingly rare breed in American politics as voters and elected officials become more partisan and polarized in their beliefs.

I am a fan of Shultz.  I understand he used to be  SJW, but seems as if he has gotten it together and some of the stuff he is proposing makes sense.

What  I don't get is he got hecked and called out for being "Rich" by someone when he was giving a speech.

 

This is the USA we celebrate people making it in life and becoming rich, or at least my generation did and still does.

Exactly..... That's like when Trump was running for office and people on here were like "He cheated on his wife with a stripper, OMG the horror" as a private citizen. Sorry but wasn't he rich and powerful at that time? Where I came from especially as a Marine he would have got a attaboy for that.

Howard Schultz says he once turned down Elizabeth Warren’s request for a campaign contribution. His reason: Her policies would lead to ‘socialism.’

Former Starbucks chief executive Howard Schultz said Wednesday that Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) once asked him for a campaign contribution and that he turned her down because her policies would lead the country toward “socialism.”

Schultz, who is now eyeing an independent bid for president, made his claim during an appearance on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.” It was his latest attempt to portray Democratic presidential contenders as outside the mainstream.

“She came to see me a few years ago and asked for a contribution for her Senate race,” Schultz said of Warren, who last month announced a presidential exploratory committee.

Asked whether he gave her the money, Schultz said, “I did not.”

Asked why not, Schultz said he does not believe in “what she stands for.”

“I don’t believe the country should be heading to socialism,” Schultz said.

Asked if he considers Warren a socialist, Schultz demurred.

“I think she believes in programs that will lead to a level of socialism in America,” he said. “She’s a smart woman. I respect her. This isn’t personal. I just don’t agree with her.”

A spokeswoman for Warren’s exploratory committee did not immediately respond.

Schultz tangled with Warren on Tuesday as well.

On the surface yes. I think in reality they are both about the same. Only difference is Bernie is more honest about his views (I credit him for that if nothing else) and Hillary tries to hide her more unpopular radical views.

I would look into backing and supporting Schultz as well, But I am already in bed with Donald Trump and gonna ride the Trump Train since it has been so much fun so far.

 

But I do give Mr Schultz respect

The far left which seems to equal the Democrat Party now days unhinged!
