Former Starbuck's CEO Howard Schultz has been a DEMOCRAT his entire adult life. Why doesn't he run as one? Too chickensh**?

He calls himself a CENTRIST INDEPENDENT! That's a load of CRAP. He is doing it to carve out his own niche where there is no competition and sez that way he will appeal to disaffected Republicans who won't vote for a Dem and will never vote for the puppet boy again. Does he have a point? Is that a chickensh** move of a coward who is afraid to face lotsa competition or a very smart move on the part of a very smart guy to try to appeal to the moderates in both parties? Whatcha think? Thumbs up or thumbs down?

He is a SELF-MADE millionaire/billionaire/whateveraire. He knows what POOR is like. He isn't one of those phony baloney "I know what you're going through" bullsh** billionaires born into wealth (puppet boy being the prime bullsh** thrower)

    Because the Dem party has moved farther to the left and he does not agree with it. Such ideas as 70% income tax and Medicare for all.

    And being the Starbucks CEO will appeal to the Millennials so he will skim votes from the Dem.  This post was edited by my2cents at January 30, 2019 7:29 PM MST

      Yet again a person has made a decision with which you take exception, as if the worst sin anyone could commit is to think differently than you do.  NEWSFLASH: he had the right to change his mind, you know!

    Guess she doesn't value personal freedom or personal incentive.  You follow the program or take the consequences.

  • Say, you are afraid of him aren't you. From where I stand, he's got the right to call himself anything he wants. Bernie Sanders is an "independent", yet he was accepted into the Democrat primary sweepstakes as if he were a hero. Let me pose this while we're assigning labels: why doesn't 99% of the Democrats call themselves "Socialists"? Is it because we're afraid? If the shoe fits........

      What if a person who used to be staunchly pro-Trump changed his or her mind 180° and became 100% anti-Trump?  What fresh hatred would you conjure up for vilification in that instance?
