WASHINGTON — When a half-dozen Democratic donors gathered at the Whitby Hotel in Manhattan last week, the dinner began with a discussion of which presidential candidates the contributors liked. But as conversations among influential Democrats often go these days, the meeting quickly evolved into a discussion of who was not in the race — but could be lured in.Would Hillary Clinton get in, the contributors wondered, and how about Michael R. Bloomberg, the former New York mayor? One person even mused whether Michelle Obama would consider a late entry, according to two people who attended the event, which was hosted by the progressive group American Bridge.It’s that time of the election season for Democrats.“Since the last debate, just anecdotally, I’ve had five or six people ask me: ‘Is there anybody else?’” said Leah Daughtry, a longtime Democrat who has run two of the party’s recent conventions.
“There’s more anxiety than ever,” said Connie Schultz, a journalist who is married to Senator Sherrod Brown of Ohio, another Democrat who some in the party would like to see join the race. “We’re both getting the calls. I’ve been surprised by some who’ve called me.”
And even some of those being wooed acknowledge that it can be hard to discern between people just being nice and those who genuinely want them in the race.Mrs. Clinton and Mr. Bloomberg have both told people privately in recent weeks that if they thought they could win, they would consider entering the primary — but that they were skeptical there would be an opening, according to Democrats who have spoken with them.Former Secretary of State John F. Kerry, who associates say has wondered aloud about whether he should have run and has found it hard to watch Mr. Biden’s missteps, has also been urged to get in. But he still thinks the former vice president, who was once his longtime Senate colleague, is the party’s best nominee.Another Obama administration official who weighed a campaign at the start of the year, former Attorney General Eric Holder, is considering a last-minute entry but has conceded it may be too late, according to a Democrat familiar with his thinking.Mr. Brown, who nearly entered the race earlier this year, said the pressure on him to reconsider from labor leaders, Democratic officials and donors has “become more frequent.” And Deval Patrick, the former Massachusetts governor, who also weighed a campaign run before deciding not to, said he too has been nudged by friends to reconsider. “It’s nice to be rumored about,” he said, before notably refusing to rule out a last-minute entry. “Don’t ask me that question,” he said.
Democrats who have recently spoken with Mrs. Clinton say she shares the same concerns other party elites have about the field — worried about Mr. Biden’s durability, Ms. Warren’s liberal politics and unsure of who else can emerge to take on Mr. Trump.
Mr. Bloomberg is said to be more eager to find a way into the race — and chatter about his potential candidacy has only grown among Democrats who work on Wall Street and are concerned about Ms. Warren’s rise. He raised some eyebrows recently by putting off a fund-raising request from one third-party Democratic group until he knew about his own intentions, according to two Democrats familiar with the conversation.
Mr. Brown and Ms. Schultz noted that they were hearing from a broad range of people but declined to offer any names.He said he was staying out of the race and had no regrets. The Ohio senator said he was confident Democrats would eventually rally behind their nominee, but he warned the party not to embrace a single-payer health care plan that eliminates private insurance.“I think it’ll be a hard sell to the public if we go into the general election for ‘Medicare for all,’” said Mr. Brown, citing the risk of alienating union workers who would lose their negotiated plans.

What separates us from virtually every other campaign is that our success is driven by the people reading this email. It’s all us, sink or swim.We don’t have billionaires or super PACs waiting in the wings. No wealthy donors with big sacks of cash to inject into our campaign.

Pence went so far as to accuse the league of "acting like a wholly owned subsidiary" of China's Communist Party and also blasted Nike for "checking its social conscience at the door."

Shortly after the announcement, President Trump’s campaign team noticed that Biden had not purchased the rights to the website’s domain and took the opportunity to troll the 2020 hopeful. His team purchased the site’s URL and changed the front page to read “Oops…Looks like Joe forgot about Latinos” in both Spanish and English.

Since there's no source on that I'm going to assume Nintex fell for fake news again
Trump’s campaign has spent more than anyone else’s, with a total of twenty-four million dollars in digital-ad buys.[...]The ads, which were seen by over four million people, include a six-second video edited to make it seem like Biden openly confesses to the scheme. When the Biden campaign asked Facebook to remove the ad, however, the company refused. “Our approach is grounded in Facebook’s fundamental belief in free expression, respect for the democratic process, and the belief that, in mature democracies with a free press, political speech is already arguably the most scrutinized speech there is,” Katie Harbath, Facebook’s public-policy director for global elections wrote to the Biden campaign. “Thus, when a politician speaks or makes an ad, we do not send it to third party fact-checkers.”
so... literally the opposite of "state tv" then?

It’s a sure bet that President Trump won’t be happy with the anonymously titled White House tell-all “A Warning,” set to hit shelves Nov. 19. But the online oddsmakers at U.S. Bookies think the real action is in trying to figure out who wrote the book.The odds-on favorite is Vice President Pence
While Pence is the 2-3 favorite, U.S. Bookies thinks education secretary Betsy Devos is a solid candidate and makes her a 2-1 bet. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin, former White House Chief of Staff John Kelly and former Defense Secretary Jim Mattis are all 4-1 bets, while Jeff Sessions, who Trump harangued constantly for nearly 21 months over his refusal to involve himself in Robert Mueller’s investigation into interference in the 2016 presidential election, is a 5-1 pick to have ratted out his former boss. Sessions, then the nation’s attorney general, was urged by the president to launch an investigation into the Times’ essay before leaving in November.First Lady Melania Trump, who rode out 2018 allegations the president had cheated on her with a porn star and a Playboy model after she gave birth to the couple’s son in 2006, is a long shot to have written the book at 50-1, according to U.S. Bookies. (Trump denies both affairs.) The online gambling site, which is E.U. based, is also giving 50-1 odds to anyone who thinks adviser Kellyanne Conway was the culprit.In an interesting twist, they are offering 30-1 odds to anyone who thinks the president himself wrote the book. The president’s daughter Ivanka and son-in-law Jared Kushner are 12-1 bets as the upcoming tome’s writers.
Trump haters immediately seized on the woman in the picture as the embodiment of their frustration with the president’s far-right supporters, who’ve been scrambling to disrupt the investigation. Don Cheadle and Alyssa Milano asked their Twitter followers to caption the image. Other Twitter users imagined her speaking their own exasperation: “Is it raining douchebags?” or “Please dear God now, right now with the lightning strike,” or “I ask for only one thing Lord and that is for all of their tiny white penises to simultaneously fall off and slide out their pant legs onto their shoes right now on camera.”But the symbol was a real live person. And, as BuzzFeed reported later in the day, she wasn’t upset about the GOP’s Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility break-in—she was there to help them make it happen. Her name is Charli Huddleston, and she works for Rep. Jim Jordan, one of the Trump loyalists who flouted security protocol to halt the deposition.“At least I look OK,” she told BuzzFeed of the viral photo.Huddleston wasn’t the only Republican woman co-opted into resistance symbolism on Wednesday. When my colleague Jim Newell tweeted a photo of the Domino’s pizza Rep. Steve Scalise ordered for journalists covering the SCIF stunt, users zeroed in on the face of a woman side-eyeing the camera as she grabs a paper plate. In the replies, they credited her with representing Americans who’ve had enough of the GOP’s increasingly indefensible exploits: “The woman wearing black looks like she wants no part of this foolishness.” “Whoever you are, ma’am, you speak to me.” “#SheIsUs.”She was not, in fact, us. After watching hundreds of people like and comment on the tweets of her face, the woman outed herself as Janae Frazier, the press secretary for Rep. Mark Walker, another pro-Trump congressman who forced his way into the SCIF. “Y’all I have become a meme. I’m DEAD!” Frazier tweeted.
Even Trump’s own family members, who publicly lavish him with praise, are sometimes said to be secretly against him. “Free Melania” had a moment as a catchphrase after a GIF showed the first lady frowning at Trump’s inauguration; Tiffany Trump is the subject of persistent liberal fantasies of a resentful, oft-snubbed daughter just biding her time before she turns on her dad.For another example, recall one of the most iconic images of Brett Kavanaugh’s Supreme Court nomination hearings, a photo by Jim Bourg depicting Kavanaugh screaming into his microphone. Behind him, in the front row of the gallery, a line of women sit and watch, wearing expressions of sorrow, confusion, and disgust. A tweet of the picture with the comment “every woman in this pic tho” garnered more than 207,000 retweets and more than 575,000 likes. Ana Marie Cox tweeted that it was “like the last supper but for feminism.” A Fast Company writer opined that the women’s reactions “were likely shared by millions of other women all over America. And they vote.”The women behind Kavanaugh were his mother, his wife, his former clerk, and two friends who’d gone on Fox News to defend him against allegations of sexual assault.
