Who is black mailing this man to knock the Democrates by putting a lot of 💰 in this 2020 race to give Trump back the white house 😜don't sleep on this independent everyone wants a piece of the 🎂

Another billionaire Democrat! How many billionaires in the repub party are running for pres!? Democrats are HYPOCRITES

Egos on parade. Masturbating candidates. News at 11.

How on earth could a guy that does business all over the planet not be compromised?... isn't that what we keep hearing about Trump?

RUN !!!!

We do not need or want him. We have had enough of Billionaires with no government or public service experience.

Maybe democrats should support him...😏

We don't need another covfefe boy.

Do we need or want him to run?

It’s past time for Democrats to make that change. They haven’t done what’s necessary to bring us into the future. Now is exactly the time!

Negative 👎🏽 !!! No one wants another rich guy businessman, who holds zero knowledge of Presidential duties, the checks and balances in government spending, standards, rules and or laws as they relate Domestically and foreign! NoHesOutOfTouch

Ya can’t do much when you’re rich huh? Stop it, don’t siphon votes. Go on a cruise or something.

He has my vote

I work in nonprofit sector When govt fails US, everyone depends on these orgs to fill in gaps There is SO MUCH work needed to build systems that would advance NP services to meet nation’s expanding diverse complex needs Why do billionaires think to make diff have to be POTUS? 🤔

.Starbucks is rubbish

Go on run for a presidential bid. The Democrats will do you the way. They did Sanders. And all your following will go back to the Democrats. As Sanders following did.

The media is already smearing this guy...they don't want anything to mess up their candidate's chances of winning.

Hey, handsome CEO. Stick to what you know. 😘

Not a good time Mr Schultz. Trump needs to be defeated first.

Just another ego driven spoiler. It doesn't hurt him if Trump wins, so let it fly!

we are fine with him running as a Democrat. Otherwise, he is risking splitting the vote.

You know what though? I want to hear what he has to say because frankly BOTH PARTIES ARE CONTEMPORARY WHACK JOBS!

Yuk...reminds me of Starbuck's over-priced, piss water they call coffee.

fakenewsmsnbc HowardSchultz Should definitely run as an independent. The two political parties we have are a disgrace

Have we learned anything? Keep billionaires out of the White House . 🤮

Where are his supporters? He has none. Just money and ego.

Because you scaredy cats know that will help Trump win.

as they should.

Seeing that more americans affiliate with independents than dems or repubs, I think it's a great idea. Someone needs to breakup this power hungry 2 party system. It's a total failure.

Evidently another Ralph Nader or Jill Stein.

BECAUSE, in our political framework as it stands, a 3rd party cannot win! State laws, the 12th amendment and political norms do not support 3rd parties!

Hahahah I’m sure they are...

Two independents!!!! Yeeeeees!!!! Split the votes!!!!

Schultz4Prez

We do not need another inexperienced 'politician' experimenting on our Democracy to see how fast he can fill his deep pockets. TheResistance

please dont

An independent candidate would be great if they had name recognition in the political sphere. Otherwise, and this is just my opinion, they take some not much but some votes from other would be candidates.

If you had a system of proportional representation then a third party makes sense because the Independent can form a majority government with another party. It makes no sense if you continue to use the very antiquated Electoral Colleges.

Selling coffee is easy! People are addicted to it. Running a large country with diverse cultures, huge inequalities, soviet infiltration and gun violence (to name a few) needs a mind able to grasp wide concepts as well as handle smaller issues.

USA is suffering now because a man doesn't appreciate the difference between business and governance. That one has a bottom line to satisfy, the other what's best for its citizens.

The beneficial outcomes he says he's running for would be much better served if he used his massive fortune for pretty much anything, other than running.

LarrySabato Someone convinced HowardSchultz that 40% of the electorate is “Independent”. In fact, that’s just a popular cover label for hidden partisans, who are quite loyal to their hidden party. True independents are few and far between in this highly partisan era.

America NEEDS independents and third parties to break through our toxic two-party system. If we get to the point whether neither party has a majority in Congress, politicians will be forced to work together for the good of the people rather than just obstruct the opposite party

We don't need another Billionaire President. The one we have now isn't worth Shit

Starbucks believes that its future is in China. Does America need a “China” CEO?

Obviously, Starbucks cares little about their employees. Otherwise, they’d pay a living wage.

And as NBC/MSNBC do the slow morph into FoxLite, democrats should beware the Morning Joe tendency to dog whistle democrats off a cliff.

First order of business.. The country will be shut down for a day for mandatory sensitivity training..

Scared

Who honestly cares about Mr. Milktoast here?

I think it's wonderful... Run Howy run!

Go for it Bro! Make American Coffee great again ☕️

Now the front men of the Corporations that controll the democrats are going to run wow! they are desperate since Mr. Trump is raddling their cage.

U wonder if Schulzt becomes president if hes gonna make us all go thru his “We must be nice to black people” Training he forced on his workers?

They shouldn't worry. He has no chance, either.

I like the man, and maybe his time will come some day. Just not now! Getting rid of Trump is the priority.

I think it's great. It would take away votes from the Democrats.

Hey wake up! The Russian are paying him to run.

The only people who vote for independents are Conservatives who don't want to identify as Republicans because they want to seem smarter than everyone else.

Lol Democrats are lost. They have no leadership

Doesnt matter trumps winning 2020
