No thanks, we have one already

Jim Wright nails the Mister Coffee thing.

Everything I’ve seen from this guy, every word he’s spoken, every interview he’s given, every poll he’s bought, every article he paid someone to write, everything over the last few days tells me just how utterly horrible he’d be as President.

And we already have someone utterly horrible as president. We don’t need more of that.

Look at this. Look at what Schultz tweeted this morning.

Lots of opinions this week. Here’s another: ‘They’re trying to bully Mr. Schultz out of running, but along the way they’re making the case for why he should.’

Bully.

He thinks he’s being bullied.

He thinks he’s a victim. Of bullying. This guy.

He’s quoting the

$4 for Cheerios???!

Also in the Mister Coffee file: Howard “from the projects” Schultz was surprised to learn that Cheerios cost four bucks for an 18 ounce box.

When asked on “Morning Joe” Wednesday about the price of a box of Cheerios, Schultz, who is exploring running as an independent for president, did not have the answer.

“An 18-ounce box of Cheerios? I don’t eat Cheerios,” he told host Mika Brzezinski. When she told him it costs $4, he seemed surprised, saying, “That’s a lot.”

Hmm. Yes, but it’s enough for several breakfasts, while a single Starbucks “latte”…

Which makes you wonder: If Schultz thinks $4 is expensive for cereal, then by extension, isn’t a $4 coffee “a lot?” After

Yet more from Mister Coffee.

He’s gonna restore faith in the American dream!

The American dream is to grow up in the projects in Canarsie and then invent coffee and become a billionaire. The American dream is not equality or justice, not a living wage for all, not a national health, not immediate effective action to reverse climate change so that future generations will have a chance to exist – no no, none of that Weird Crazy Unrealistic stuff … Read the rest



“Don’t help elect Trump, you egotistical billionaire asshole!”

Jan 30th, 2019 8:23 am | By

The Starbucks guy threw a launch party for himself at a Manhattan Barnes & Noble last night; attendance was minimal.

Schultz had no sooner begun to answer his first question from moderator Andrew Ross Sorkin, the CNBC host and New York Times columnist, when he was interrupted by a voice in the back of the room.

“Don’t help elect Trump, you egotistical billionaire asshole!” a bearded man in an Adidas track jacket shouted. “Go back to getting ratioed on Twitter!”

Schultz started to respond, but the man kept going: “Go back to Davos with the other billionaire elites who think they know how to run the world!”

Well put.

When Schultz eventually regained the floor, he said he was

Oh I see, he’s doing it on purpose. Stupid of me not to realize.

Bloomberg is one of those critics.

Andrew Ross Sorkin at the Times:

Mr. Schultz, in an interview with The New York Times on Sunday, said he planned to crisscross the country for the next three months as part of a book tour before deciding whether to enter the race to challenge President Trump in 2020.
