The closely watched former Rep. Beto O’Rourke (D-TX) is planning a road trip to meet voters outside of his home state without any staff or press — a perfect opportunity to mull a 2020 presidential bid, a decision he says he won’t make until February at the earliest.
According to a Monday Wall Street Journal report, O’Rourke’s reticence — along with the indecision of possible candidates like former Vice President Joe Biden — has put something of a pause on Democratic announcements.
Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) stands as an exception, as she has launched an exploratory committee and traveled to Iowa to meet voters.
As I have noted before, Biden/Beto with Joe volunteering to serve one term…
Beto could use the seasoning provided by 4 years of serving as VP…
That should hold the fort till 2032…
I’d rather see the Dems go young. Perhaps Beto/Harris - not that I have any clue whether or not the two get along…
I sense that he’s someone I could vote for with joy in my heart, which I was able to do with Obama twice. The chance to vote with joy in your heart is exceedingly rare, has only come once in my lifetime–I’d love to experience it at least one more time.
After Trump?
You could pull someone off the street and they would do a better job.
I believe Beto could do it
He ran with no pac money and is not owned by anyone
Who else in the field can say that?
My dog could do a better job than Individual-1. Lizzy is a herding dog, she has more focus and a longer attention span than Adderall Adolf ever will, even with drugs.
