John F. Kerry running in 2020?

Nap said:
This is the hilarious thing about politics and the team based partisanship we have in America. One side critizes the other, and after a period of time the roles are reversed.

If this turns out to be true, there is hardly any difference between Kerry's actions and Flynn's. The only real difference is that Flynn was a member of the upcoming administration while Kerry is nobody of importance. If anything Kerry's action are more egregious due to that fact, but ultimately neither are worth getting upset about and rather pointless.

I disagree. Flynn whatever you may think of him, in his position was suppose to make contact with other governments in his same capacity. Kerry's time has expired and is deliberately undermining a sitting president.

BS. Nunes, along with his staff and other members on his committee refused to even release it to the FBI who were wanting to see it.

Everything in that memo has been compiled from information the FBI and other agencies, FISA courts have given the committee along with testimony. When it is released they can all read it at the same time.

My guess is due to leaks. This information is still classified and has to go through a vote in the House before it can be released to anyone.
Senator Grassley seems to be aware and called for the information in the memo to be made public.
"Based on what I know, I agree that as much of this information should be made public as soon as possible through the appropriate process," Grassley told CNN.

There is a huge difference between what Flynn did and what Kerry did.

What have we heard form Mr. lock her up lately? Nothing. What have we heard from the Administration about him? Nothing. He got caught with his pants down, didn't want to go down for it and turned state's evidence. I don't know what the hell he did or what the hell he knows. But he did something and he knows something. It remains to be seen what the answers are. but there are answers out there waiting to be revealed.

You don't know what Flynn did. None of us do. And you don't know what Kerry did either. Unless of course you want to take the word of a source of a source who made a report to another source who reported to the Jerusalem times. But I know you would never accept a 3rd or 4th hand report. Would you.

Shelden Adleson makes payments, overtures, direct speeches calling for action in direct conflict with the American Government. He has done so for years. So is he a traitor? Is he guilty of treason? Or is it OK because he is ....?

He should just stick to docking his yacht in another state to avoid paying taxes on it

I had forgot about that one. Thanks.

Here in this household hubby enlisted in the Navy around the same time as Kerry. What Kerry did after his service caused my husband to despise the man. When he ran for president it is the first time I saw my husband get politically motivated to keep Kerry from winning. That was the first time I saw him dig deep in his pockets to elect Bush. It wasn't because he was in love with Bush but he despised Kerry.

Because he is...... go ahead spit it out!

You are way off base and that was a very poor example. In this country we have the right to speak out and be in conflict with our government. That does not make someone a traitor or treasonous. Kerry isn't speaking out in this country about Trump. He is doing it in private with a foreign leader in a foreign land undermining the sitting president.

And he is a private citizen and is within his rights to do so. Precisely the same as Adelson.
Oh. He is rich, white, Jewish, bigoted, islamophobic, greedy, and just a really bad person. I didn't need to spit, it came out easily. He doesn't run from it.

I made that distinction in my post. I don't think either person did anything people should be outraged about.

I will accept Mr. Mueller's report, but there is so much so much smoke , to not investigate would be criminal in its self.

Another fossil. Sad that it's been almost 10 years since Obama ran and he's STILL the fresh, young face of the party.

You seem convinced he broke the law. We know he supposedly lied to the FBI, but beyond that, what crime do you think he committed?

He violated the Logan Act.

No matter if this is just a rumor or not, it does not seem very likely that John Kerry would do well. Even within his own party to get the nomination.

To me this seems to be Kerry jumping on the bandwagon of the current political sentiment where just about everyone Democrat is going after Trump for really anything and everything.

I do not see it being enough for Kerry specifically to capitalize on and end up all that far in 2020.

Not after it's been revealed that he colluded with a terrorist orginization to undermine The United States government.
 
John Kerry has as much chance of winning the Dem nom as Rick Santorum had of winning the Repub.
And he knows it, and HAS known it.

That said, the Swiftboaters can go take a flying leap.
