Elections Julián Castro expected to formally announce 2020 presidential bid today 11am EST

[curryjunkie]

It's not dumb. The guy named Hussein turned out to be very unAmerican with his views. His name should have been a bigger red flag to people who voted for him. Now we have a bigger Islam problem, a bigger govt problem, and we've got a huge tranny problem which is turning into a pedo problem if we don't fight the LGBTQ agenda that Obama brought with him.

annnd....rip swerves into his favourite subject.....

Official live feed of Trotsky's reaction upon hearing of a potential 'President Castro'.

At least have the balls to tag him. @Trotsky

When you're right, you're right.

Castro seems like a good egg. Won't be my first choice, but he's a solid candidate.

 

[Jimmy Jazz]

Its about time we had a indigenous native president.

 

[Jimmy Jazz]

Nah. Castro is not an American name, unless you mean South-Central American.

actually Mexican Americans have been on this land from the start. Lol go tell some Mexican AMericans who fought in vietnam or korea, and had ancestors who fought in WWI and II, and the texas war of independence that their names arent american.

What is pathetic and sad is promoting affirmative action purse puppies.

Pathetic is trying to play down someone who is far more successful as you as "affirmative action".

 

[Rod1]

@Rod1 has discovered the English word "pathetic" and thinks that if he says it enough while wagging his finger at us we'll hang our head in shame. If he had real substance he would bring it, but he knows that Julian Castro is an empty suit getting by on his diversity credentials rather than real accomplishment. I guess Roddy Two Times thinks he can push our white guilt buttons and we'll roll over and submit.

Pathetic isnt even "english" proper, its etymology is latin.

 

[SBJJ]

What if his name was Jesus Castro?

What if it was Manson Hitler

Hussein is an Islamic name. Big red flag for Islam. And Obama brought over a lot of Islamic immigrants. He advertised this and tried to convince us that Islamic immigration was good for us. Some ended up being terrorists gunning down people, running over people with trucks and stabbing people on campus with butchers knife.

Castro- Fidel Castro was a communist.

I'm not saying the name Castro disqualifies you from being good for the USA, I'm saying that the names like Castro and Hussein should raise a red flag.

But what criteria constitute an American name? Please, I want to know what makes a name American and what makes a name un-American?

Donald Trump sounds American.

Barack Hussein Obama, you know that's not an American name. I know the Hussein name is arabic and Islamic. Obama is Kenyan.

Any name that sounds like a foreign name. Julián Castro and Barack Hussein Obama are foreign names. You will find those types of names most often outside of the USA borders. I've never met anyone named Julián, Barack, Castro, Hussein, Obama etc.

That's a tautology. An un-American name is one that isn't American. Surely you're not that stupid so you must be dodging. What are your criteria? Do the Cajuns count? Can a person with the last name Dupre be allowed into the club? How about the Polish? Are they in the same boat? How far back to you have to go before your name is American? Do you keep a list of the names of the people who came over on the Mayflower and only count them?

Even if you're trolling, which you insist you are not, you will have a hard time getting me to believe you're not a complete idiot. Why don't you give me your reasoning for how you determine a name is American? What are the qualifications?

If you intend to reiterate that it's only because you "never met anyone named Julián, Barack, Castro, Hussein, Obama etc" you must understand what you are saying. Your country is huge and you sound like you've never left your county yet you feel entitled to judge hundreds of millions of people you don't know. Very Christian of you.

 

[squeezewax]

Just saw this guy giving his speech announcing he'll run. He must of gotten a book for Xmas entitled 100 cliched sayings, he must of memorized a good few of them in his speech.

 

[cincymma79]

Lol, but really, if those are the names, big red flag.

Pun intended

this is an all time great Ripskater quote. Too bad my dubs won't allow me to add it to my sig. Too good to waste.

No no... I'm not asking you for examples. Please describe your criteria for what constitutes an American name.

 

[Big Nasty Edison]

I like the trend so far if younger, fresh nominees.

The national median age is 37.8 years old in America. The average income in America is $59k. Democrats need to energize younger voters. Seventy year old millionaires don't do that.

I wonder how much affirmative action went into his grades. I mean we have to attain equality and if that means corrupting every system that should be based on merit then so be it. The Nobel committee should outdo their last run at debasing themselves by giving him the Nobel Prize in Physics.

And for the record I wanted Cruz to be President. So stick that in your fact check pipe and smoke it.

Lol @ wanting Ted Cruz for president.

You should be laughed out of society for having horrible judgement

This thread is like that episode of the Office where Michael thinks the mafia is shaking him down in the form of a life insurance salesman named Jon Grotti

Trump / Trumpf is German. Since the US fought the Germans, why aren't you concerned with Trump, oh wait he is White and rightwing so he gets a pass.

And what about Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio, Bobby Jindal, Nimratta Haley, Dinesh D'Souza...

 

[PEB]

For people saying that Julian is not a socialist not even close he does not mention a living wage, unions, healthcare for all or medicare expansion, making college more affordable, 15 dollar an hour minimum wage. He is President Obama 2.0 where corporations run healthcare where there is no caps on drug costs or any kind of drug price adoption. He has far more in common to President Obama, Hillary Clinton and Beto then Warren, Sanders, Gabbard or Ojeda. if people support him kiss away medicare for all, college for all even trade school for all. We will see more the same as the way President Obama ran things. His exploratory is an indication that the neoliberal corporate wing of the Democratic party is getting worried. Especially the way Goldberg went after AOC and Bernie recently as well as Joy Reid on Bernie bro comment.

 

[Ripskater]

Yes, there are a lot of foreign names there. Not traditional American names.

He's a troll account and always has been.

I really don't understand how people keep getting into drawn out exchanges with the guy when he's so obviously playing a character.
