Chelsea Clinton is "being groomed for Congress".

[Shadowferal]

I think we just discovered how the Democrats could lose to Trump again in 2020.

Yeah.
Some Democrats haven't learned a damn thing.

[Macaquerie]

That's why I am always wondering, that people buy "Trump is anti-establishment".

It isn't so much that Trump is anti-establishment, but that the establishment is anti-Trump. He would have gladly sold out from the very beginning, but nobody was buying, and so his campaign sort of became populist by accident.

I could season my food with this thread.

Pft... the Clintons groomed Obama and I got proof:

I doubt kaine is running in 2020.

Granted everyone likes him, he has no scandals, he's a pretty squeeky clean nominee. But I doubt he could rally people.

We need warren.

But yes clearly this would keep Clintons active in politics, she'll be able to win a congressional spot easily I think.

It'll be a 100m race on the clinton side and a 2m race on the otherside.

I think if the Democrats want a strong pro-labor, populist ticket in 2020: O'Malley/Gabbard

( that's Martin O'Malley and Tulsi Gabbard)

O'Malley reminds me of a New Deal, pro-labor Democrat

Gabbard endorsed Sanders for the Democratic nomination ( point 1 in her favor), and she is a female Samoan Hindu ( yeh i was like da fck? the first time I heard that combo) A Hindu VP, can you imagine the Religious Right butthurt lol. It would eclipse the sun.

For some reason when I read the comment and the word "Groomed", the image of Hillary barking shot through my head.

President Trump knows how to groom people too.

I kinda figured back in the late 90s they would be shoving Chelsea down our throats at some point.

[Asotcha]

She could be just fine and you all will still hate her for having the last name Clinton.

If I could +1 this, I would.

Was reading an article yesterday that claimed that the first woman president would need to be an extraordinary person and politician. I am not sure Chelsea Clinton is all that extraordinary.

False claim imo as the requirements are 1) born in US 2) been living in US for 14+ years 3) 35+ years of age. It seems to me that the lax requirements are to allow any native man or woman to apply for the job. The amount of will, persistence and sheer luck needed to get the job can be called extraordinary. Not to mention endure and tolerate the negative side-effects that come with the title.

If Chelsea Clinton ever becomes president, I'd love to be her Monica Lewinsky...

[Xandrigity]

I doubt it. From what I've read online she is a horrific public speaker.

Have you actually looked at her? Ew.

Damn thanks for the laugh!

At least he's successful after the fact.

Yes, Trump's father did give him a million to get started. Most people would have made bad decisions and lost it.

Be honest, this isn't the first time a Clinton has groomed a young girl.

That actually made me spit out my coffee.
Funny stuff, thanks!

We don't need any more political dynasties. No more Bushes and no more Clintons. I'm not happy Trump was the Republican candidate and got elected, but Hillary had a remarkable sense of entitlement for the office. It was supposed to be "her turn." The highest elected office in the land isn't anyone's right, that just mocks the will of the people.

[Deleted]

The only important question is... Does Bernie have any children?

[Twix]

She's gross.. please no more Clintons in politics

[ItachiZaku]

She's got a really ugly horse face. She needs to hang with Sarah Parker so look normal.

NEW YORK - While some pundits are declaring the Clinton political dynasty dead, sources tell us that it is far from over. Chelsea Clinton is being groomed for the New York seat held by Rep. Nita Lowey.

Chelsea could run for the seat in NYC’s 17th Congressional District once Lowey, a respected, 79-year-old career politician with nearly 30 years in office, decides to retire, we have exclusively learned.

The source said: There is a belief that Chappaqua is a logical place for Chelsea to run, because it would be straightforward for her to raise money and build a powerful base.”

Chelsea Clinton has been accused of paying for part of her wedding with money from the Clinton Foundation.

So everything the people don't want, the Clintons want to try and reproduce. Got it.
