The 43 people who might run against Trump in 2020By Lisa Hagen - 05/08/17 06:00 AM EDT The 2020 presidential election could feature the most crowded Democratic primary in decades, with scores of Democrats rumored as potential contenders.The potential field could see some familiar faces as well as a mix of ambitious senators, governors and House members. But President Trump’s success as an outsider could also embolden more nontraditional candidates from the business and entertainment industries.ADVERTISEMENTWith no clear leader, the 2020 field should be a change from 2016, when Democrats had a small field of candidates, including front-runner Hillary Clinton.Here are 43 possible candidates who could take on Trump in 2020:Former Vice President Joe Biden: Biden, 74, said he “regretted” not running in 2016.

Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.): Sanders, 75, emerged as a leader on the left after his 2016 run and he’s working with the Democratic National Committee to help unite the party.
