Ex–Starbucks CEO Could Get Trump Re-elected


Howard Schultz thinks politics are broken, and may run for president as an independent. Democrats think that’s a terrible idea.

Before there was Jill Stein, there was Ralph Nader. Before there was Nader, there was Ross Perot.
None won. All argued that the Republican Party and the Democratic Party were basically the same, and the only way to make real change was to ditch them both. Each was blamed for siphoning off enough votes to throw the presidential elections.

These days, the difference between the parties is starker than it’s ever been in modern times. Yet here comes Howard Schultz, a billionaire who feels that he might be the answer to American politics, and that he’d run for president as an independent.

"These days, the difference between the parties is starker than it’s ever been in modern times."

In what way? They both love big government. They both love being invaded by illegals and refuse to secure our borders. They both love big deficit spending piling on debt we'll never be able to repay. They both love government run health care, they just prefer different methods of taxation to pay for it. They both love our corrupt DOJ and FBI. They are both going left, one a little quicker than the other but with the same destination. Where are these "starker than it's ever been" differences???
