If you think that only Brazil has its eccentric candidates, it is good to be aware of the upcoming US presidential elections in 2020 that could be the scene of an interesting debate between Donald Trump, a possible candidate for reelection, and John McAfee, possibly a of the most eccentric characters in the world of technology.
To get an idea, McAfee has already sold its entire fortune (a year before its company was sold for $ 8 billion to Intel) and took refuge in a bungalow in the middle of the forest in Belize. In the small country of Central America, McAfee also married a 16-year-old prostitute who later tried to kill him. Not satisfied, he decided to equip the region's police with heavy weapons, ammunition and vehicles.
This may not be the perfect curriculum for a candidate for president of the United States, but McAfee does not care. The entrepreneur recently announced his pre-candidacy for US president as a way to serve the crypto-coin community as a whole. McAfee's tweet about his campaign in 2020 has already garnered over 600 comments, with him responding to most of them with "thank you" or "🙂". A tokens platform apparently already donated the equivalent of $ 390.85 for its campaign.
As the international news portal Cointelegraph shows, this will be the second time that McAfee is running for president. At first, he lost the nomination of the Libertarian Party to former New Mexico Gov. Gary Johnson. McAfee mentioned his failure in the past to note that if he "was more connected to the community in 2016," he would have been better able to publicize the idea of ​​"currency independence" that he notes on the lips of "all Americans."
"I DO NOT THINK I HAVE A CHANCE TO WIN. I REALLY DO NOT. BUT WHICH REALLY CHANGES AMERICA IS NOT THE PRESIDENT, BUT THE PROCESS OF CREATING ONE. IF MY COMMITMENT IS ENOUGH, I'LL GET UP ON THE LARGEST STAGE OF THE WORLD AND I'LL TALK WITH EVERYONE AS I DID AT LAST TIME TO SAY THE TRUTH, "HE SAID.
