[Co-Chair Bagel23]

Hello America! It is time for my presidential run, the demoratic field as of now has just been too stale, and refuses to offer a strong fight or stance against Trump as it stands now. I know what it takes to truly win in politics and in business, and that is making others lives better, and that is not what Trump is in for. Don't let a facade fool you, he is the same KKK sympathizer and immature impulsive child. America, I am here for you. I'm no career politician, I am a businessman from scratch, and I made everything I had with compassionate people, real ethics, giving back to the community, and hard work. Trump is no true businessman or dealmaker. He would have been wealthier if he had just piled his daddy's silver spoon into some ETF's and left it be. And he has not cut any real deals since his real estate days. It is time for the people once again to decide their own fate, and let Mr. Trump and those like him wander back to the swamp that they crawled out from. Fact is folks, he refilled the swamp, and most of his picks were not even qualified. America deserves better, and that's why I am running for president. My combination of compassion, shrewd business policies, and law are what America needs now. I look forward to a healthy dialogue within the democratic party, and hope to bolster it, and provide America with more choices for its future. As for Mr. Trump, we would like to say, we are coming back. Thank you all, and God Bless America!

"Within the first week of my presidency, I will push for ANTIFA to be designated a terrorist organization.  I have always promised to take threats of terrorism seriously, both foreign and domestic.  The President has not.  ISIS is virtually destroyed, thanks to the work of our military and allies, but President Trump has shown his resistance to condemning and taking seriously the threat of domestic extremism.  After the Charlottesville rally in 2017, in which an extremist brutally murdered a protester, the President refused to appropriately condemn the extremists in question because they wore his hat.  All foreign and domestic extremism, in whatever form it appears, must be condemned."

"First, I would like to say that Senator John McCain has dedicated his life to this country, and I think I speak for all Americans when I say, "Thank you for your service."  In regards to the election, I do hope that the Republican nominee is someone who wants to move the party forward, someone who believes in civil rights and economic freedom.  We can't have a candidate like Joe Arpaio who was convicted of violating civil rights; we need a candidate who will raise the GOP's image in Arizona and across the nation.  There are many prospective candidates like that, and I hope to see one of them being nominated and becoming senator."

"It is no secret that the Republican Party has its divides.  However, we must come together on common messaging.  This party has always valued economic freedom, of which I have lived my life by and will emphasize in a way to not only unify the party but attract new voters wary of the Democratic Party's leftward tilt.  The GOP also has moderate and libertarian branches that promote individual freedoms.  I will invite these members to come along with my campaign as well to modernize the Republican Party and push for moderation in social policies and environmentally aware policies.  I always look to find common ground and certainly won't stop now."

"Yes, people have taken advantage of my generosity in the past, and I am upset that I fell for their tricks.  I did learn, though, from my errors and have reformed my ways, becoming a much more successful businessman and leader in the process.  As President, I will act as I have for many years now to avoid scams: examine the deal carefully, consult experts, consider all available options, and act accordingly.  However, I will say this: I will never offer the American people a bad deal.  Before the President was inaugurated in January of 2017, he made promise after promise to the American people.  He created a deal and sold it to the American people, promising to be an active leader and change our nation.  He has shown no leadership skills whatsoever, leaving Congress to have to pick up his jobs as well.  He ruined his deal with the American people and scammed them.  I offer a different deal, one that I will not break: I will be the leader that America deserves on both the national and world stages."

"On this debate stage, there are two options: leadership or cowardice.  The President of the United States, the greatest country in the world, hides when threatened by others.  He refuses to accept basic facts if they do not hep advance his cause and has divided America over petty fights.  I, however, never hide myself behind a phone.  I stand and fight for what I believe in.  As President, I will continue this level of national growth accomplished by leaders in Congress and will always fight for you, the American people."

Tulsi Gabbard Announcement

"During the last four years, Americans have overwhelmingly shown that they want change. Real change. They have shown they want politicians who represent the people, not the special interests, Wall Street, and powerful elite. They have shown they want money spent here at home, on infrastructure and healthcare, not on endless foreign wars and interventions. It's been a long time since we have had a president who truly is for the people. Well America, now you'll have one. That is why I am running for President of the United States. We will build a new populist movement that puts the American people first, not the establishment. We'll take this movement to the White House and take back Washington from Wall Street and the big corporations."

1. The recent retirement of Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont came as a surprise to many. If someone whom you do not trust or disagrees with runs for Senate seat as a Democrat, will you remain united with your party and support them?

- No. Thats the simple answer. The Democratic Party is not the party of conformity, its the party of ideas. The Republicans idea's around screwing the poor and the middle class, the Democrats idea's include being able to disagree. Look if someone runs for the Senate as a Democrat which i disagree with, i will not fall in line. I will call out that candidate. We should not fall behind one candidate in any race.

2. In 2018, the expected Democratic Blue wave was instead a great Republican hold in both houses in Congress. May you give your reason why you think everything turned out horribly?

- It's because the Democrats have not fully embraced Senator Sander's economic populism. The Middle Class and Poor will not vote for a Party that stands for pragmatism before helping people.

3. Due to some Democrats endorsing and supporting ANTIFA and claiming it's a non-violent organization, the recent assassination attempt on Senator Marco Rubio has called many to question if such an organization is really peaceful. As a Democrat, what is your stance on ANTIFA?

-ANTIFA has made it clear that they are a violent radical group. They should not be respected and are a bunch of communistic sh''its.

CANDIDATE SPECIFIC QUESTIONS

To Senator Brown: 1. Senator, there are some who claim that despite you having several connections and having a somewhat good approval in your home state, that you're a weak candidate against Trump. Care to Persuade everyone otherwise?

- If i'm a weak candidate to take on Trump, then i don't know who else does. I represent a working class state and i remain popular as a democrat. You know it seems now a days that states like Michigan, Wisconsin, and Ohio are Republican strongholds. But we must remember that these were democratic strongholds for decades. Economic populism is the key. Trump was a populist and he won them over, i'm a populist and i can win them back.

LARGE PERSIAN OFFENSIVE TAKES KEY IRANIAN CITIES; IRANIAN GOVERNMENT FORCES TRAPPED IN SOUTH-EASTERN IRAN

Starting on September 13th, Operation Daewat Alhuriya or Freedom Calling was a large Persian operation that took the cities of Mashad, Birjand, Kermanshah, Esfahan, and Yazd. The operation has been considered a major success by Persian forces and it seems that by next year, the last of the Iranian Government's forces may surrender while Kurds give aid where they can. They have encircled the city of Qom and laid siege to it. The idea is to starve out the government forces there rather than to try and take it outright like last time.

FBI and DOJ:ANTIFA are terrorists
A day after the assassination of Senator Rubio.

Sites like Amazon and EBay have taken off ANTIFA merchandise such as flags and pins.

However popular ANTIFA website “Its Going Down.com” Have posted a video message by a  Anonymous leader saying that “They have made a big mistake” And that our revenge is coming.

3rd Democratic Debate

GENERAL QUESTIONS

1. There has been talks within the Democratic Party of who should become the official poster boy and leader for it in the Senate and House. If you become the Nominee, who will you support for that post?



Thank you, thank you!

Well, I just want to start off by thanking CNN for giving all of us a great opportunity to talk with America and her families in the living room. It truly is a great honor and privilege. Truth is, I think that it is too early to really say accurately at this point in time, and that is more of a privilege for congress and the people to decide. I will support, and most importantly work with whoever that individual may be, but for now, I think it is too early and too off position to really take an accurate call on that.

2. The recent Polling shows Democrats at a major disadvantage in the General Election against President Trump. As the Nominee, how would you give Trump an effective Challenge?

The Democratic Party needs to nail Trump on the economic issues. Time after time we go after one-off "scandals" and use social hills to die on. But getting support takes more that. The current strategy has failed miserably on multiple occasions, and I will seek to drive home an economic message. Everyone can agree that wealth in this country is concentrating too strongly towards the top earners, while the rest of everyone else is just living by with a just a handful of small reliefs every now and then. This must change, and I will seek to drive this message home.

3. The situation in Venezuela is very unstable yet former Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders said it was the beacon of how great Socialism is. What is your position on Venezuela?

Well, I like Bernie and he is a tough guy and had a very honorable career. However, I do disagree with him on Venezuela. While they are no real threat, they are no role-model either. We need a message that rings close to true capitalism with common sense safety nets. We are now on a path to corporate capitalism, and extreme wealth concentration, and we need to return to the capitalism that our forefathers intended. After all, today's capitalism is not your grandad's capitalism anymore. Going socialist is too extreme, but I do think that we need reform to include everybody in our working economy.

4. Next year, we are planning to drop out of the Paris Climate Agreement. If you're elected, will you stop this exit or continue it?

Definitely continue it. Just because other countries may not be holding up their ends does not mean that we get to let loose as well. America is supposed to be a role-model to the international community, and we cannot falter just because others are, that is simply not the honest and hard working American way. Negotiating, and editing is not a problem, but dropping a beautiful plan just because others may not be following it up to par, is not a solution, America is better than that. Unfortunately we have lost a lot of respect and influence around the world over the years, and I blame this on President Trump and his bombastic actions and harmful rhetoric, it simply is Anti-American.

CANDIDATE SPECIFIC QUESTIONS

To Representative Delaney: 3. Representative Delaney, in 2017 you admitted that FIFA paid Ireland off after the 2009 Henry Handball. As President, how can you be sure you won't be involved in another Scandal like this?

Well, um, this is kind of awkward, gosh, but that is not me sir. I think you got me confused with an unrelated man who shares my name. It definitely is not me that you are referring too.

I think this is the man you are referring to:

An article link as well: https://sports.vice.com/en_us/article/gv74x3/john-delaney-admits-fifa-paid-ireland-off-over-the-2009-henry-handball

Closing Statement

Once again, I would like to thank CNN for hosting this debate, and for the American people hearing me out. I will continue to fight for a smart economy that works for all, real strategy, fair resource usage, opportunity, and so many additional promises that I am excited to deliver to the American people if chosen. It is time for change once again, love, not hate. A good economy for the working man does not have to come with disturbing rhetoric and questionable ethics, and I hope the American people remember that come the election days. Thank you all, and have a good night, God bless you and America!

[Co-Chair Bagel23]

At a John Delaney camaign rally mainly focused on high tech jobs in pharmaceuticals, in Towson Maryland the day after the debate, Congressmen Jamie Raskin and John Sarbanes as well as state Attorney General Brian Frosh came out to endorse John Delaney for president.

Brian Frosh:



John is the best choice for jumpstarting our high tech economy, and fighting for the working man, his background says it all.

John Sarbanes:



I have known John for years and had the honor of serving with him in the house, and his great mentoring of me has really been enough on it's own right for me to proudly endorse my good friend and smart job creator John Delaney for president.

Jamie Raskin:



John is the right choice for moderate bipartisanship and a strong liberal backbone at the same time. We need a strong and yet kind hand back in the white house to restore order, and through his kindness and vast success, while bringing up many hard working Americans with him, in the political and business worlds, John Delaney has proven himself as the fittest choice for the presidency. John, keep up the great work, and let's all fight to win this thing!
