Garcetti taps Hollywood ties to fuel 2020 campaign



quote:

Former Vice President Joe Biden, California Sen. Kamala Harris and New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker, among others, all have ties to donors in the area. As the pre-presidential campaign unfolds, Littman said, “there will be 25 people running for president, many of whom have good relationships in Hollywood.”

I have never heard of this guy. The Mayor of Los Angeles... Any poli posters from California know his politics? Far left I presume?

He will run on bankrupting the city of Los Angeles by getting the future Olympics.

Democrats are great with bankrupting cities.

This guy might not even make the California Gov race runoff.

Please Dems.... run an open border, coastal elite, socialist whose only arguments center around identity politics and Trump hate

Then he needs to remove that American flag pin from his collar. His title does not parallel the values that the particular pin represents.

I have no idea, but LA is a cesspool of politics. So much corruption.

His dad is Gil Garcetti, the former LA DA who bungled the OJ Simpson trial from the outset by moving it to downtown LA.

I don’t think it really matters who the Dems put up at this point.

They have a bunch of ethnic “Great X Hopes” but no one with a lot of cross ethnic appeal nor a lot of accomplishments to hang their hat on.


It’s an extension of the problems they have had for a while now.

They lost several generations of farm talent between national wipeouts in 1994 and 2010, their problems winning governorships, getting wiped out in state legislatures under Obama, and some talent with high expectations flaming out spectacularly.

I’m specifically looking at Weiner on that one but they had others who shot themselves in the dick.


As a result, their bench of candidates are the same fogeys who have held safe seats forever and a few upstarts whose main claim to fame is their tribal membership.

His father is Gil Garcetti, who was the DA in LA County during the OJ Simpson trial (served from 1992-2000).

They are liberals.

Saw this on local news. Garcetti was interviewed and looked like a deer in headlights. Something smells.

The Democrats didn't lose because they couldn't get the coasts to show up. They lost because they have lost touch WI, OH, PA, MI. They damn near lost MN.

Which is pretty damn funny considering the socialist roots in the upper Midwest like Wisconsin and Minnesota.

Those states are some of the original BernieBros.

Gil's son.

Which begs the question - how is the son of the man who failed to get convictions against the Rodney King cops and ran that Biblical disaster that was the OJ prosecution have any fricking shot at being President of the United States?

As a Democrat, no less? His nomination chances are 0, IMHO.
