Not in this galaxy.Trump looking like a 2-termer
The president loss the total/popular vote by over 3 million votes. He won in 3 stages by 100K votes.
While the Democrats have an abundance of candidates they really have 2-3 serious contenders. Corey Booker is not a serious candidate. Bernie Sanders is not a serious candidate. Kamala Harris is not a serious candidate.

Gillum is not a serious candidate. Beto can raise cash, but I think that’s just because people really hate Cruz. Newsome is not a serious candidate.
OK who are the serious candidates?

Warren. Biden. And Avenatti.

I agree with your assessment. The people listed each serve a portion of the party. Avenatti is a pit bull who’s sole purpose is to antagonize the president. Biden is the bridge between racists and the party. And Warren is our savior.

Democrats need a charismatic candidate from out of the blue like Senator Obama in 2007.
Warren would get destroyed. It's Biden or bust. He's the only one that can potentially reach those "non cult" Trump voters.
Biden's lost every time he's run, Avenatti's a grifter. Can we get more sensible in here please?

I'm really enjoying people touting Avenatti as a sure Democratic candidate for 2020. Surely, it's a sign of desperation. Trump will be a two-term President, sadly. The Democrats don't know how to create messaging against the GOP/Trump. Also, Trump has control of every arm of the US government and the support of the most popular news channel in the US (Fox News). Finally, all of those tax cuts last year will have business people and corporations paying billions into his re-election coffers.
On the flip side of my post people need to stop saying Trump is a sure second term. He won against an equally unpopular establishment candidate aided by historically low voter turnout. Turnout is up in the primaries and should continue going into 2020. As long as the Dems don't run someone like Hillary again they're in a decent spot. The Senate is a bigger concern.
