Governor of Washington raised his profile today

[gabeana]

confronting the piece of shit
never know could be a possible WH contender in 2020

1. Were pretty proud of him. Well, some are.

Are you a Washingtonian? If not I’ll say the urban centers are really liberal and the rural are really, really Conservative.

[The empressof all]

5. The right wingers are really loud against him on line...

Any comments about him on local media skew negative with the constant complaint about rising taxes and left wing Seattle. They have a very constant presence. Property owners here in the Seattle area just got hit with huge property tax increase which has drawn the critics out in droves. I'm not sure where this utopia of low taxes and high quality of life is. But overall I count my blessings every day that I live here and thankful that I am able to afford to continue to do so.

There is a great deal of ignorance and anger on the east side of the state. They have a unique set of issues that come with rural life that they believe are not given equal attention and they seize on the big city issues of our Western Urban Core as proof that liberal policies don't work .. It's two different worlds.

7. Hi No I am not

I am a Californian, I'd imagine that Eastern Washington is pretty conservative

6. Yup

I've followed Jays career.
He's a fighter.

3. Inslee is a former congressman, and is very intelligent and thoughtful.

I think he would make a fine president.

4. My Guy for 2020!

8. God love him, he's my Gov., but he's too old.

67 now, 69 in Nov 2020. Fine for VEEP, but not the top of the ticket.

We need youth. Youth to make the Dotard look like a dotard, and youth to motivate the youth to show up.

Love, DU's resident Ageist.

10. with octogenarian pols

late 60's are whipper snappers

[KT2000]

9. he will not put up with bullies

He came out early and loudly after the travel ban. He joined the protesters at the airport (Sea-Tac).

12. And tonight

that piece of shit is looking for ways to screw the state of Washington.
