Rahm Emanuel Is Gearing Up to Run for President

Rahm Wants to Run.

Yes, that Rahm. And, yes, for that office — the presidency.

“I’ve only been back two months, I have no idea what I’m doing,” Rahm I. Emanuel, operative-turned-politician-turned-diplomat told me before adding his stock line since returning from serving as ambassador to Japan. “I’m not done with public service and I’m hoping public service is not done with me.”

Ignore that evasion. Rahm Emanuel is voting with his feet.

Since coming home in January from his stint in Tokyo — a job he repurposed to be American envoy to all of Asia — Emanuel has been as visible as any other Democrat. Never mind that he currently holds no office and hasn’t been on a ballot for a decade.

Name the political podcast and Emanuel has likely been on it or will be shortly. He immediately snagged a CNN contract and regular Washington Post column, no small accomplishment for a former official at a moment of retrenchment for news organizations.

He’s also hitting the lecture circuit, appearing for paid and gratis gigs before audiences such as the Realtors and the Chicago Economic Club. Emanuel is pointedly avoiding Ivy League campuses and later this month will make his first stop on a service academy tour when he speaks at West Point.

What did Rush call him?  Dead fish Rahmbo?

I think it might be a mistake to dismiss this guy. He has a broad appeal to the D base.

From any right-of-center point of view he's thoroughly loathsome, but he's more administratively competent than most of the Democrat bench.

My younger son will be excited: he once met Rahm Emanuel when we were visiting Chicago and Emanuel was running for mayor.  Emanuel shook his hand and complemented him on his (second-hand 1970's vintage) orange suit. 
And when they behead your own people in the wars which are to come, then you will know what this was all about.

Rahm is dwelling in fantasyland.

The mussies will not like him because he is a Jew.

He sucked as Mayor of Chicago, and as an advisor to Clinton, that will not get him anything these days.  By 2027, Clinton affiliated folks might be held in the same esteem as lepers.

He will be a 1% if he runs.  Perhaps he is angling for VP with a POTUS run.  He will never make it to the top of that heap.

And clearly, Walz is running.  So the Degenerate Party is loaded with delusional hacks.  Should be entertaining since they are starting already to jockey for position almost 3 years out.

I agree. Time to get the dirt mines going, because he's one of the more competent in Leftyland.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

As do most all Democrats. That's his base.

When is the last time a Chicago Mayor hasn't sucked?

Not much of a heap, if you ask me.  I mean, Kamala? Walz??

But the delusional hacks are playing to a delusional (TDS afflicted) base.
They are selling that they are the NOT Trump, and will continue to do so. They are desperate to get their gravy train back. There isn't any altruism in those ranks beyond the bottom, the top tiers are loaded with the greedy and power hungry (and often wealthy) who push the envy that made Communism possible, promising the moon and stars to their followers while reserving the real benefits for themselves. It's a cult, looking for a leader to follow, and if it finds one, is well enough financed to make them into anything they want them to appear.

Maybe Rahm is the one, maybe not, but the Democrats have the media (propaganda) to have foisted Sniffy Joe on the American People, even convince some that he "won" the 2020 election, or that he was compos mentis while in office despite prima facie evidence that he was not.
Despite their operation being revealed for what it is, the faithful still believe.

For that reason, any reasonably competent (as in mentally) Democrat, especially if they have or build name recognition, is a potential threat.
