Former Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz announced this week that he was considering running for president and the Hollywood Resistance unloaded on him.
“I love our country, and I am seriously considering running for president as a centrist independent,” Howard Schultz said in a social media post.

“Nader gave US Bush in 2000. Gore won by over 500K. Would’ve had 15-20 yr. jump on global warming & no 1mil. killed in Iraq. Stein helped give US Trump. Hillary had 3 mil. more votes. Now Schultz wants to give the incompetent criminal moron a 2nd term. Curb your ego! Don’t run!” celebrity activist and director Rob Reiner said.

HBO host Bill Maher also chimed in, “Really? The coffee guy wants to be president? Just because you had one profitable insight – people will overpay for coffee – doesn’t mean you can run the world. Govt is a different animal, can we please get a pro in there?”

Schultz could be entering an already crowded field of far-left candidates, including Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA), former Mayor of San Antonio Julian Castro, and Democratic Senators Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders.
Check out all the Hollywood stars piling on.
With all due respect, please dont run. You will take precious votes away from the Democrats in the most important election of my lifetime. Remember Ralph Nader. Run as a democrat if you want. We need to beat Trump.

Join me & retweet this message to @HowardSchultz:
DON’T run for President. You will not win. You will, however, almost certainly damage our chances of electing a qualified woman or man to replace Trump. And America cannot afford another four years of this catastrophic debacle.— Ken Olin (@kenolin1) January 29, 2019
#DonaldTrump says #HowardSchultz “doesn’t have the guts” to run for president. Or is Trump just furious to see an *actual* billionaire running?

Howard Schultz is what this country needs – a rich guy with no governmental experience. Vote Schultz!
