The current count is 21 or 22! That would be a full debate stage ... but they will not all make it that far. They will give up or run out of money.
Who knows if the former Senator from Alaska who is 88 will even be alive! His name is Mike Gravel. And then there are the three B's--Biden and Bernie (77), who are both well past their prime, along with the young and hip Instagram sensation, Beto.
Some of the names are just fun. The former Colorado governor, former geologist, former brewery owner, has a memorable name--Hickenlooper. And then there is the gay mayor of South Bend, Indiana, Pete Buttigieg--whose name sounds like boot-edge-edge. Pocohontas (Elizabeth Warren) and her DNA test are hanging in there. She at least knows what she stands for, but can no longer claim minority status.
Trump does not have nicknames for all of them yet. Some will inevitably drop out before the Iowa caucuses. It will likely get brutal!
But, as Mark Cuban just stated publicly ... Trump will win! No one yet has emerged from the pack that would hold up well in a debate with him, in my opinion. Cuban might actually be up to the task if he decides to run!
Now the unpopular NYC mayor, De Blasio just announced. As of this date, there are 22 Democrats!
Sadly, for all you never-Trumpers, I concur with Mark Cuban. There will be four more years.
Brace yourselves. Given the enthusiasm level at a recent Trump rally I attended, it is hard to believe that half the country hates him!
