45 Democrats jostling to challenge Trump in 2020

An unprecedented 45 Democrats are jockeying for the party's nomination to challenge President Trump in 2020 — shattering the record for the number of candidates aspiring to be commander in chief.

A review of potential contenders by the Washington Examiner reveals that up to 45 candidates could mount a serious bid to become leader of the free world. While many will undoubtedly decide against formally entering the race, most Democratic strategists expect at least two dozen to do so.

Rep. David Cicilline of Rhode Island, co-chairman of the Democratic Policy and Communications Committee, said recently that the 2020 presidential contest could draw up to 40 Democratic hopefuls. “Look, we’ll have between 30 and 40 great candidates running for president,” he told MSNBC. “Everyone recognizes how urgent this moment is in our country’s history.”

To have more than 40 Democrats seeking to win the White House would be "historic," James Thurber, the director of American University's Center for Congressional and Presidential Studies, told the Washington Examiner.

Wait until the tv shows all those clowns on the debate stage at the same time.

It will be like watching 'The Greatest Showman' all over again without the musical score.

The more Democommies in the hunt for the Dem nomination, the easier it will be for HR Clinton.  Her loyalists will vote for her, the the other numbskulls divide the rest of the vote.  She wins the Democommie nomination easily and spends the next 4-5 months living in PA, OH, MI, WI, and FL.

Bank on it!

TRUMP vs CLINTON in 2020!

LOL!  They'll have to conduct the primary debates in heats of seven.  Many won't even be noticed with a single question.

Some rat will follow in Trump's clown shoe foot prints and just act bizarre for for the sake of media coverage.  I hope the rats pick the kookiest one because he/she fights.

And he/she will pick the best people.

Doesn't matter.  HR Clinton will announce late, to allure as many in the fight as possible.  After the first caucus in Iowa, 70% fall by the wayside with their 0.5 % vote each.  By the 5th primary, there will be 3-4 Democommies in the running.  But what a circus up until that point!

It's not a clown car, it's the entire clown circus train.
