    If you wonder why the Democratic field keeps expanding to comical proportions, just remember that running for president is a lucrative business enterprisehttps://twitter.com/superwuster/status/1125233706720006144 …

    De Blasio won't gain any actual voter support running for President but it does give him a way to raise money from people who want to do him a favor, and he can give that money to consultants, media buyers, marketing experts, and other pals

        The United States Government is basically a Chamber of Commerce with an army. The actual role of the DNC and of the RNC is to keep government out of the hands of the people.

        Also it is a way to continue to move the goalposts on the 20 limit of who qualifies for the debate stage in June. One week Tulsi qualifies the next week she doesn’t as more enter and DNC qualifications become more stringent.pic.twitter.com/oDS0IzQDuj

        I think one major reason is the establishment is wanting a ton of candidates running, in an effort to stop certain candidates that they are hell-bent on stopping from winning the nomination, like Sanders and Gabbard, for instance. Then the super delegates come into play.

        That is a theory I heard Jordan Chariton make on a recent youtube video anyway, and it makes sense to me.

        They are doing it to peel delegates from key Bernie strongholds and thus deny him 51% earned delegates which triggers “Round 2” where superdelegates can overturn the peasants’ vote and give the nom to Biden. It’s a scenario many of us warmed about since they made the Round 2 rule

        Don't forget the consultants getting their share either.

        Some of these people are running because they're under investigation and it gives them some "cover"

        I think this cycle will prove negative in that regard due to saturation.
