Gillibrand says she won’t be running against Trump in 2020

[Madmallard]

I'll believe it when I see it.

There won’t be another female senator from New York running for the White House soon.

Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand said she has no plans to follow in her successor’s footsteps and challenge President Donald Trump in 2020.

“No, I am running for Senate. I’m running for Senate in 2018,” she told John Catsimatidis Sunday on his radio show “Cats Roundtable” on 970 AM in New York. “And I really love my job and I feel like I can make a huge difference for New Yorkers, fighting for them.”

Gillibrand, 50, was appointed to the senate seat of Hillary Clinton when she became Secretary of State and was elected by New Yorkers in a special election in 2010 and to a full term in 2012.

She was an outspoken backer for Clinton and has since become a vocal critic of President Trump, gaining progressive praise for voting against almost all of his cabinet picks. She voted in favor of Nikki Haley for United Nations ambassador.

Cuomo is up against the same thing. It will be like dejavu all over again. Hey Andrew, put on a vagina hat.

 

[dsdmmat]

She is a hack and a perfect example of why we need term limits.

 

[Jezman]

Translation there will be no funding from anybody to support her. That money is channeling to a different promoter.

The progressives are starting the circle their donkeys around Pocahontas for a potus run in 2020. You can make this shit up.

 

[Calculon]

It's all about the money. She wants to ensure she's reelected as senator first with the old hag's endorsement and all the money that will follow. Then in true Dem fashion she will see what the polls say about a run against DJT and her ability to fund raise. Also, if she announces her intentions this early she gets media "scrutiny" vs being left alone.

 

[NirvanaFan]

No way she runs in 2020. They're setting up Sanders, Warren, or some other further left person.

BINGO, we have a winner. Behind closed doors I'd wager there's a lot of planning going on to conserve resources in their primary.

I was looking at an on-line Urban Dictionary to help me find words to discuss Gillibrand, Warren, Madame Hillary, FUAC and Chuckie but I could not find any combination vile enough.

 

[MoMan]

Funny, I think I've heard those exact words echoed by Hitlery. I have no plans of running for POTUS, I'm going to stay and help the people of NYS, I'm not in this for me... it's about the help I can give to the people.... BLAH......BLAH.....BLAH.......

Everyone will fear running against him, even though it's stupid to even be saying he's running 4 years from now not even through his first 3 months..he may hate it and change what's been said about already running again 2020. A) they'll be scared about what dirt he'll dig up on them while campaigning and B)he probably gonna be such a hard worker that nobody will compare and we know fake politically motivated politicians won't work.

Agree. Filing for 2020 was to facilitate fundraising. Of course, I'm one of the ones who thought he'd drop out of the primaries, so what do I know, lol.

 

[ProgSpear]

Sillibrand knows she has a cushy for life phone home senate job as Schmuckies sock puppet. All she has to do is give a few speeches roughly every six years about "blah blah blah womyn's issues blah blah gender inequality blah blah rape blah blah blah..."

Why on earth would she do anything to jeapordize that gravy train?

 

[capitalcrew]

She'll be gunning for cuomos job.

 

[ProgSpear]

She'll be gunning for cuomos job.

Astorino would kick her ass so hard shit would come out her ears. I think that's half the reason FUAC wants to be prez, he know's there's a little blood in the water this time around. Astorino did pretty well with zero name recognition; if the pubs could pull their collective heads out of their asses, Astorino could take it in 2018.

EDT: I would love it if FUAC became known as nothing more than Sandra Lee's boyfriend.

 

[capitalcrew]

Yeah, right lol. The dems could run harambe against astorino and win in NY. Sry.

 

[dubleuhb]

She's reached her pinnacle in life and she knows she overachieved at that so I doubt she will gamble such a let down.

"Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand said she has no plans to follow in her successor’s footsteps and challenge President Donald Trump in 2020."

Follow her successor's footsteps? Um, Hillary lost you idiot. You certainly will follow in her footsteps.
