I'd like to see Spartacus in a debate with Trump. I swear, when he speaks it actually sounds like his head is hollow, like you can hear the air passing through it.

Swalwell. Ignorant, smarmy, and absurd. Of course, that describes them all but he just pushes my buttons harder.

OK, I'll break out of the question and suggest Hillary. Whenever anyone wants a genuine "worst", she pretty much fills the ticket. I really can't think of anyone worse than her.

Why bother?

Why give any of these people a passing thought?

You know enough about each to know you won't vote for them. Why waste any more energy on it.

Perhaps going and finding something to be positive about would be time better spent, no?

Since each of these candidates will no doubt produce news articles, and threads of their own where people will expound on how much they suck, do we really need a thread that is just about suck?

Unnecessary negative waves, man.

These two, I think.
He comes off both pompous AND as dumb as a rock; she has a voice I don't like hearing for four seconds, not to even think of four years. Plus, she's rude as heck.

I'd name O'Rourke for that reason.

Julian Castro might be the scariest. Crazy bernie and joey plug would be scarier if I thought either could make it to the finish line.

Swawell , on top of wanting to use nukes on states if they don’t turn in guns, if they get the gun control they want. The wife was watching a late night show the other night, it turns out swawells parents are Trump / Pence supporters, and have a Trump sticker on their refrigerator. They are not even sure they would vote for their own son for President.

Kamala is the worst. It isn't close. She's a boot on your neck statist. Her only goal is the pursuit of power. She slept her way to prominence and pushed progressive shit as much as she could as SF DA. As CA AG she dropped some of the progressive stuff to play better in non SF parts of the state. She's a politician for sure but she left her ideals, if she actually has any, at the door when it became politically expedient. She's done nothing as a senator except find the limelight. She's a hypocrite and she's dangerous. Still waiting for her opponents to get after her about her lack of action towards rogue DAs while AG. She backed crooks who were putting brown folks in prison with no regards for the law. Not very progressive. So far none of her opponents has the stones to push it. Wonder why beyond the obvious. She's one of the few who can win.

I'm not even paying attention to them until after the NH primary, when 2/3rds of the field will drop out.

And Arc is right. I'm not voting for any of them, and I don't think I'm reaching too far in saying I don't think too many people reading this will be either. But from an opposition research standpoint, it's interesting. And it will be fun to watch them frag each other as the race goes on.

Camel Toe Harris; I had a protracted unpleasant interaction with her when she was Gov Moonbeam's poodle in California.

I’ll go with Booker

Cory The Caricature Booker! Who one upped his pedophile counterpart, Bob "I love teenage Girls" Menendez, by sexually assaulting both Men AND Women.

I hope Kamela goes down hard.

Worst...well, that's open to interpretation.

Dumbest...Swalwell, he's a 38-yr old from the Bay Area and thinks he's progressive and ahead of social issue, never mind he's the wrong race for any audience and has a punchable face. And, his platform is entirely on gun control. This guy is simply trying to raise his profile and tap into new donation streams.

Naive....O'Rourke, I swear, he actually believes he's Robert Kennedy reincarnate. A wide swath of Dems are trying to groom him using the Obama-method of profiling him as a hip, in-touch, compassionate, dreamer. Ben Shapiro just rips him in a few of his videos.

Dangerous...Harris, much like Berto listed, those of us in the Bay Area, who endured and watched her time as DA of SF then as AG of CA showed a very shrewd, ambitious and dangerous political operator. She's got a vindictive spirit and wouldn't hesitate to sic various gov agencies on those whom she opposes. She would have zero compunction eviscerating and condescending her opponents.

I didn't know they could shoot.

I can't pick one--they're all horriblel

Sorry flashguy about the lack of clarity. Is this more clear for you? “Most of them would make a better candidate to be executed by a firing squad than they do a candidate to be POTUS.”

Arc, I think I can say something positive about all of the Dims: The vast majority won’t even get the nomination. And whichever one does will likely be absolutely crushed by PDJT.

Harris. She's a female Obama only more out of touch.

I met her in 1990, a new Deputy District Attorney , Alameda County. She is even worse than what you describe. I heard she left the Willie Brown years out of her autobiography. She, at 29, used that dried up 60 ish old venomous reptile to to leap frog her career. I hope someone gets to ask her about the value that relationship in the most graphic manner possible. She had no problem sending poor black guys to prision for smoking pot, and now she admits using it at the time. She identified as east asian-Indian- Caribbean back then. After she used Slick Willie, she married a rich white guy from LA.Things have changed , including her accent. Even her dad dislikes her.

Swalwell, despicable as he is, is a giant only in his own mind.
Harris has the ethnic and gender identity boxes checked, is from the huge state of California, and is both smart and relentlessly vicious.

I would put her down as the worst.
Tough choice though.
