FiveThirtyEight article says the Democrat frontrunners are all less popular than last election's (including Hillary).
Last Democrat debate was least viewed primary debate in U.S. history. Talk show hosts were joking about the fact that no one even knew it happened.
Tulsi Gabbard is the only electable candidate, but the middle-aged Lesbians, which are a large fraction of active Democrat party members, don't like someone who is young and keeps her hair long. They like the unelectable Elizabeth Warren who looks like them.
Wealthy Democrats like Mark Cuban and Bill Gates have been reiterating their belief in Capitalism and hinting that they won't vote for Warren or Biden.
Rumors are that Hillary Clinton could enter the race.
You're OP is all over the map, wandering aimlessly between useful and useless observations.
Read somewhere that only 6 million people watched the last debate. That included me. And I'm a Trump voter. Impeachment theatrics, Schiffs wild-eyed musings and long days of third-person hearsay by self-important and self-indulgent talking heads just makes most Americans heads hurt. Democrats have overplayed their hand on impeachment and worn out their welcome (at least temporarily) with the unwashed masses as we head into the holidays.
Gabbard rattles too many chains and won't be president, but you're comment about long hair and lesbians is a **** poor excuse of a masquerade of a useful observation. Warren won't be president either.
Agree with your comment about wealthy Ds not voting for Warren or any other So Serious Socialist Whack-Job. Dems on the campaign trail have not only reinforced that divide between the rich and the poor in this country, but they're also establishing a divide between the rich and the richer in this country. Millionaires dissing billionaires is............unseemly. They're a bunch of freakin' morons. Seriously. Morons.
Clinton? Good Lord I wish she would. Epic. Completely epic destruction would ensue.
Yup, Trump can be obnoxious. Still beats the disastrous policies and attitudes being supported on the left.
I know obnoxious and that isn't it.. I think Trump is quite entertaining for being a politician. I love his candor, his wit, his come back when Trump is attacked. I love his confidence , his transparency which has not always treated him well.. The press looks for anything to attack him on..
Trump is no pushover. He stated if I want to get something done , if it doesn't work out this way , I will try something else. And Trump stated he is not set in stone. He can change his mind on how he will do something to get it done. He is a fighter and puts long hours in to accomplish all kinds of good things for Americans. This is why I will vote for him again. Jobs are back, the economy is back and we are rolling along with more good things to come.
I think this is exactly the reason Nancy Pelosi was against the impeachment in the first place, back earlier in the year.
Impeachment takes focus away from the Democrat candidates running for President, and creates a ton of distraction.
Not exactly what this already-unfocused Democrat party needed at this point.
I think history will look back on this time as a failure by the Democrats, and the point the American public realized the Democratic party is doing very, very little for the districts they were elected to represent, and they might've made Trump's reelection easier.
I agree. The impeachment thing didn't help the republicans much, it's viewed as a negative at this point and didn't accomplish much for them.
Most of the democrats all seem out of touch and unelectable. If the economy stays good for another year and if Trump doesn't screw things up he probably will be re-elected. The incumbent usually has the advantage as long as the economy is doing alright.
Right now we are crashing down the "1972 Road" (rather than 1968) traced by Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail '72 by Hunter S. Thompson. Sanders' plus Warren's votes easily overtop others, particularly when you add in Kamala Harris. This year further resembles 1972 in that the Republican incumbent is despised by the intelligentsia but loved by his base. Also the economy appeared sparkling in 1972, with the help of wage and price controls. No such artificial intervention now.
I am a liberal Democrat. This makes me sad; as sad as Pelosi was to have to investigate impeachment.I have often used rabies as the best analogy for the Democratic debaters.
Anyone expecting a 1972 or 1984 style rout in 2020 haven’t been paying attention to the politics of the last 35 years.
Donald Trump is the least popular President in the history of polling. To use a term associated with Donald Segretti and Nixon’s dirty tricksters of 1972, all of the “ratf**king” in the world couldn’t pull Trump’s bloated carcass to a landslide of that magnitude.

It won't be 1972 or 1984, as those were historic, all-time beatdowns. But bookmark this prediction now:
If he is the nominee, Trump wins 2020 with a minimum of 34 states, which is at least 4 more than he won 2016.
Please, bookmark and make sure I can eat crow if I am wrong. By all means.
I’m guessing you’re thinking he’ll carry all 30 states he won in 2016, and will add at a minimum, Maine, New Hampshire, Minnesota and Nevada. The only other two that seem to be remotely in the ballpark are Colorado and Virginia and they look harder than the rest.
