Rep. Seth Moulton Enters 2020 Race: ‘I’m Running Because I’m A Patriot’

Rep. Seth Moulton (D-MA) announced Monday morning on ABC’s “Good Morning America” that he is officially throwing his hat into the ring for the presidency.

“I’m running because I’m a patriot,” he said, adding that he has never been content to “sit on the sidelines.”

“I’m gonna talk about patriotism, about security, about service,” he said of what sets him apart from the pack.

Moulton has become the 19th official Democratic candidate, with Vice President Joe Biden expected to announce later this week.

  1. Laughable. Loser Moulton finally dares to put himself out there as a challenger.

  2. "adding that he has never been content to “sit on the sidelines.”
    Really? Those shameful and histrionic acts don’t make you seem brave.

    Yeah, the guy who opposed our amazing Speaker Pelosi, but tried to get a woman to take her down.

    Other than some media “moderates,” who is enthused about Seth Moulton? We’ve already got great, knowledgeable patriots in the race.

  4. Mother of God - he couldn’t even come up with a credible challenge to Speaker Pelosi but the country is 'sposed to think his, being an, - uh - “patriot” is reason to be POTUS?

    Dems already have contenders for VPOTUS; Go sit way the f*ck down, Moulton, you’re not even close.

    Wow, Seth Mouton, that means that anyone can run in this primary. As I am as big of a numbnutz as this dude, I could probably garner more votes. Always dream big, will be my campaign slogan, to go with free beer for those who vote for me…is that a bribe?
