Republicans, meanwhile, see the potential to pit candidates against each other in ways that could pay off for their party down the road.
As Cook sees it, there’s never a shortage of presidential ambition in Washington and state capitals, so large fields aren't uncommon and parties wind up with small primaries only under two conditions. "You've just got a lot of pent up ambition that was waiting to explode," said Cook."And who the hell knows if you're going to have a viral fundraising moment? Lightning can strike."the race Wednesday. Close behind him are fellow Reps. Eric Swalwell, D-Calif., an outspoken member of the Intelligence Committee, and Seth Moulton, D-Mass., a combat veteran known for being a critic of Pelosi.
I agree
That's what happens when you have no good candidate. Throw them all against the wall and see who sticks.
WHAT IS THE MESSAGE ?
To many choices put them all together and you still have nothing the Dems are in a very sad state life boats 🚣 no paddles
Okay so there are 17 Candidates in the race... in 2016, a total of 22 republicans ran including those who withdrew before the primaries, this it isn't unusual to have this many campaign announcements before any votes have taken place
A punk is known as a rat, the peace maker for these try to lead our nation. What product that might produce if a rat is a peace maker? That rat Rev AL is a king of punks. This tells something about those people looking for the rat's support. The rat owes millions of unpaid taxes.
Same pattern as the GOP2016 ... 16 canidates... keep it moving...there's nothing new to see here!
The more candidates there are, the better the odds that a good leader will rise from the pack.
Be easier to tell us who’s NOT running for President
Just shows you how fractured and desperate the Democrats are!
They’re all the same.
Creepy.
This is how Trump will obtain his second & third term.
Fun to watch the Democratic circus 🎪. Just shows what a failure this party has become. The party of false desperate promises to keep their corruption going.
DONALD J. TRUMP Administration has Counted up 289 Accomplishments in 18 categories, capped by the confirmation of Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court. ⬇️WHY DON'T YOU SHOW US YOUR ACCOMPLISHMENTS, SO WE MAY CONSIDER VOTING FOR YOU ⬇️
I'm waiting for someone that has the voice of Obama, the policy knowledge of Elizabeth Warren, the campaigning skills of Bill Clinton, the good looks of Beto, as well as Joe Biden's insight into how Washington works. Still waiting. 2020
Too much hubris in Washington politics. Soooo many unqualified announced thus far. Need someone-Moderate with military background, foreign policy background and service in federal govt ,fiscal pragmatism. Few thus far qualified.
Too many ppl all clamoring for the same pot of money.
Opportunists by the dozen. As usual, money will make the difference.
No no keep adding them, the more the merrier.
Kamala Harris is walking death...
And not one is worthy. All communistic.
We’re gonna need a bigger clown car
Isn't that what the primary is for ?
Still have not heard one offering up free beer. I know it's coming, lots of beer votes to buy.
Never too much in the end the ppl will select 1 person to run
Lmao all the democratic candidates kissed Sharpton's ring yesterday and made their pledge to him sealed their fate LOOSERS
Remember how the left laughed in 2016 when the republicans had 16 running for president? 😂🖕😂🖕
Unlike the Dems, should Trump’s (mental) health fail him or for some reason he cant run, there are zero choices for the Republicans and anybody last minute will not have had the opportunity for America to get to know them. Another great thought out strategy from them.
amyklobuchar winner 2020
It should be 4...BetoORourke PeteButtigieg KamalaHarris and Joe Biden...at least those are the only 4 I'd take the time to listen to. What I wouldn't give though to see a Republican grow a set and run against Trump...now that would make this election fantastic!!
There is only one choice, Biden 2020
It just makes it look like the ones already declared aren't good enough to dissuaded others from running. 'Hell, I could do better than them.'
They'll beat each other to death, then Trump will only have to deal with the bloodied remains! SocialismSucks
They will get cut down real fast at the end, this is who I think will be standing , Bernie, Ms Warren, Ms. Harris, Joe, Cory, Ms Hildebrandt and Mayor Pete Booigieg.
They have about 59,000 one for each gender they recognize, sounds about right.
Many of them won't last to see the Iowa Caucus.
I only worry that they wait too long in making their fight against trump. They need to start calling him out, every day for the things he says.
In the end there can be only one. By the time it would be an issue we will have a single nominee.
. Logically, this situation tends to sort itself out. When the plethora of fringe candidate's DONATED money runs out, and to continue they'll have to pony up their OWN money, they'll bow out. It happens EVERY General Election cycle. Politics 2020PresidentialElection
They all suck
If just one (the “incumbent”) would drop out, we should be happy with a lottery to pick his successor. Any living person would be an improvement
You know what this is, embarrassing! I can't wait for the debates to see how ridiculously Dem are simply mimicking republicans field in 2016. A disaster and trump must be so happy.
Except, they don't
I think that all it does is complicate peoples minds .
I count all that are running and I don’t separate them as some are major and some are insignificant. They are all equal
WHOEVER IT IS ...... It could ALF or Pippy Longstocking..... I DON'T CARE ...I WILL BE VOTING BlueWave2020 FlipItBlue Blue2020 VoteDem2020 Get that TREASONOUS TRAITOR CRIMINAL HACKED SUBHUMAN OUT THAT CURRENTLY ILLEGAL OCCUPYING THE WhiteHouse
Nobody knows how many Democrats it take to screw in a lightbulb but now we know how many it takes to go up against trump 😄
It is going to be fine. Unlike the GOP fiasco last time, I think the Democratic field will thin itself out early. This week's crop is meh.
The best choice:
Happy that we have choices this time!
The Dems hearts are in the right place, but the last time candidates got their followers energized and then in the General election, the followers of people that did not make it sat out the election and we got the worst president in the History of the US. Will it happen again?
The lunatics have taken over the asylum!!!! Bring on 2020...this should be fun!!!
The GOP had 16 candidates and ended up with the very worst one bc the other 'normal' candidates split the vote
Jump right in. The more the merrier. The water in the sewer they swim in is just fine. Do a swan dive. Heh. This is gonna be fun.
Heck no. Gather all the best of the wonderful array of ideas for actual solutions and develop a fabulous platform. Then, choose the dynamic duo that can bring it to the people. Works for me. Plenty of time to put it into action.
MANY OF THEM ARE THE SAME IN DIFFERENT PACKAGES.
My man AndrewYang at the center! Got the smartest and most rational policies: Plus, Andrew Yang has had disillusioned Trump supporters say they'd vote for Yang instead.
Not too many choices when there really is only one choice. 4 more years, crybabies...
It will stop to the left, to the left in a box on the left!
It's still a year and a half away.
Seriously. It’s going to be a diluted field now. Which gives Trump advantage.
