Donald Trump’s first presidential term approached his equator — the next election is to take place in the 2020 year. According to the American political tradition, in the spring of 2019, candidates for the post of head of state will announce their intentions to compete with the billionaire.

There is no doubt that the current president will run for a second term from the Republican Party - even in the winter of 2017, Trump sent a statement to the Federal Election Commission about his intention to participate in the elections. It is even known that the party congress on the nomination of a candidate will be held on 24-27 on August 2020 in Charlotte (North Carolina).

In the camp of the Democrats there is no such confident unity. Although it is known that the party congress will take place on 13-16 on July 2020, the venue has not yet been determined and, more importantly, it is unclear who could lead supporters to the elections. TJ talks about several likely and incredible US presidential candidates in the 2020 election of the year, as well as what Trump thinks about them.

Warren

Senator Elizabeth Warren is currently one of the most popular politicians in the Democratic Party. She actively supported Hillary Clinton in the last election and leads a stormy campaign in the mid-term elections in 2018. Warren consistently criticizes Trump, calling him "the least popular president in modern history."

“Urgent news: the most unpopular president in modern history cannot invent anything new, but only repeats his racist attacks. America is ready to change course in 4 weeks. Tick ​​and Donald Trump! ”

Warren has not yet publicly announced her presidential ambitions, but various observers have repeatedly suggested that she could compete with Trump.

What does Trump think about it?. The president himself called Warren the most likely rival in the elections, and expressed confidence that she would not be a serious threat to him. For the senator, the Republican came up with the offensive nickname “Pocahontas” and called it on the air several times.

Bloomberg

New York City’s former mayor and media mogul Michael Bloomberg endorsed Hillary Clinton in the 2016 elections of the year, but his loyalty to the Democratic Party is not so unconditional. In the mayoral election of 2001, he joined the Republican Party, and in 2007, he left it. In October 2018, the founder of Bloomberg re-registered as a Democrat.

This, as well as his active participation in the 2017 midterm elections of the year, prompted the media to assume that Bloomberg may have presidential ambitions. It is known that in the 2008, 2012 and 2016 years, when he was expected to participate in the election race, the ex-mayor did not dare to conduct his campaign.

What does Trump think about it? Bloomberg and Trump have repeatedly criticized each other. The current president said that Democrats bribed the media mogul with the promise of a prestigious position. The Republican also noted that the ex-mayor doesn’t know him well, because they “only played golf once” - and Trump turned out to be better.

Sanders

Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders, though he lost to Hillary Clinton in the fight for the nomination from the Democratic Party in the 2016 year, continued to actively participate in American politics. In August, 2018, he won the primaries in the mid-term elections in his state.

On the question of whether he is going to again fight for the presidency, Sanders has so far given only evasive answers. In July, 2017, the senator noted that it was too early to talk about the elections, but did not rule out his participation in them. At a Stephen Colbert show on 2018, the politician said that he was not ready to give up trying to run for the top job.

What does Trump think about it? The senator regularly criticizes the president - once he even called him an “idiot”. Trump did not remain in debt, having repeatedly used the offensive nickname Sanders in the speeches: "crazy Bernie."

“I don’t want to attack Crazy Bernie Sanders too fiercely now because I like to watch what he does with Rogue Hillary. His time will come again! ”

Biden

The former US Vice President has repeatedly shown willingness to consider his participation in the 2020 elections of the year. He actively expressed support for Democratic candidates in the midterm elections. According to a series of polls, Biden was the leader among possible candidates for the democratic primaries, but so far he has refused to consider himself a participant in the race.

Against his possible nomination is the fact that Biden was already being nominated as a candidate for 1984, 1988 and 2008. All of these party primaries he lost.

What does Trump think about it? The current president stated that he was “dreaming of Biden,” since he was a candidate who had never gained more than 1% of votes.

“I dream, I dream of Biden, this is a dream. Just note: Joe Biden ran for three times, but he never gained more than 1% support. President Obama got him literally from the garbage heap and gave him the post, and then it shocked everyone. ”

Kerry

Former US Secretary of State John Kerry briefly intrigued his supporters, saying on CBS News that he did not rule out his participation in the 2020 presidential election of the year. A week later, he said that he “strongly doubts” about this and offered to focus on the mid-term elections to the 2018 Congress. Talking about 2020 year, he said, "a waste of time."

Kerry already has the relevant experience, though it’s not a good one - he received a nomination from the Democratic Party in 2004, but he lost the election to George W. Bush.

What does Trump think about it? Commenting on the possible competition with Kerry, the president said that he was taking on rivals.

“John Kerry, the father of the now-concluded agreement with Iran, is thinking of running for president. It seems I was just lucky, because the competitors that are being selected are really good - for me! ”

Winfrey

Talk about possible presidential ambitions for Winfrey began after her speech at the Golden Globe-2018 award ceremony, and the #Opra2020 hashtag hit the top of the day. In Los Angeles, January 12 hung a billboard with the inscription "Oprah For President" (Opru presidential).

The results of the survey, which in January 2018 presented the National Public Radio of the United States showed that the TV presenter would lead in a possible race with Trump. The likely nomination ended without a start - Winfrey said she did not intend to participate in the elections.

What does Trump think about it? The incumbent commented on Winfrey’s likely participation in the election, saying that it “would be fun.” Trump said he was confident in his victory over the TV presenter and was ready to compete with her. At the same time, the head of state said that he knew Opru too well and doubted that she would take such a step.

Daimon

JP Morgan Chase Chairman and CEO James Dimon in September 2018 spoke in favor of trumping the election. Daimon, however, made a reservation that he could not get the support of the liberal wing of the Democratic Party, and without this participation in the presidential race is impossible.

What does Trump think about it? The president called Daimon close and neurotic, not forgetting to praise himself a little.

Michelle Obama

The former first lady is perceived as a candidate in spite of her numerous statements that she will not run for president. Back in April 2017, she said she did not want to go into politics. Barack Obama supported her in this decision.

Obama remained true to his convictions a year later.

Michelle Obama

However, her public campaign in support of Democratic candidates in the mid-term 2018 elections of the year When We All Vote (“When we all vote”) once again gave food for speculation.

What does Trump think about it? Unknown. The President did not comment on the possible participation of Michelle Obama in the presidential race.

Hillary Clinton

Officially, Clinton, who lost the election to Trump in 2016, did not say anything about her possible re-nomination. Several circumstances speak in favor of the emergence of such a scenario. Ex-Secretary of State increased her activity in the political arena after the defeat, delivering speeches and supporting Democratic candidates.

Bill and Hillary Clintons embarked on a tour of 13 cities, which should last until May of 2019. In addition, Clinton speaks on foreign policy issues: she compared the “Russian intervention” in the American elections with the September 11 terrorist attacks on the 2001 of the year.

What does Trump think about it? In response to recent Clinton statements, the president accused her of colluding with the Kremlin.

Chelsea Clinton

The Clinton’s daughter in 2017 declared that “definitely not the person who could defeat Trump in 2020”. However, in 2018, Fox News reported that Chelsea had changed her mind and called herself “definitely one of the possible candidates.”

Officially, the youngest of the Clintons did not confirm and did not refute the information about her possible nomination.

What does Trump think about it? Unknown. The President did not comment on the publication about Chelsea Clinton.

Other candidates

To date, 29 people have already spoken on the topic that they could take part in the presidential election from the US Democratic Party. In addition to the names already mentioned, such statements to the press were made by: California Senator Kamala Harris, Congress Member and National Guard Major Tulsi Gabbard, Starbucks founder Howard Schulz, Oscar de la Hoya, boxer, former US Attorney General Eric Holder and rapper Kanye West.

What does Trump think about it? The president, during the election campaign to the 2018 Congress, criticized his opponents from the Democratic Party, accusing them of trying to build socialism in the United States.

The truth is that the centrist Democratic Party no longer exists. The new democrats are radical socialists who want to rebuild the American economy along the lines of Venezuela. If the Democrats gain control of the Congress in November, we in America will find ourselves at a dangerously close distance from socialism.
