The headlines for the 2020 Democratic primary election polls are still the same — Joe Biden is well ahead of everybody else — but the most interesting trend is the uptick in support for Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), the first major candidate to announce way back in December. Warren, who had been lagging with just 4 percent in a March Quinnipiac University poll, reached 13 percent in their latest survey, nearly matching Sen. Bernie Sanders at 16 percent with Biden in the lead at 35 percent. Looking across multiple polls paints a clearer picture of Biden’s lead — but also...

On Thursday, New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio became the 23rd candidate and the third mayor competing for the Democratic presidential nomination. In recent posts, Hans Hassell, Jonathan Bernstein, and Vox’s Dylan Scott and Tara Golshan offer explanations for this rash of candidates. This post is on the next question: How could the Democrats shrink their pool of contenders? I suggest two approaches: party-centered and market-oriented. But first: What’s wrong with 23 candidates? Lost Senate candidates. Party insiders and observers have highlighted the opportunity cost: Several of these candidates (Steve Bullock, John Hickenlooper, Beto O’Rourke, Joaquín Castro) face long...

VIDEO Although Kamala Harris was obviously the favored presidential candidate of the mainstream media last year she turned out to be such a disaster that they are now forced to hype Joe Biden out of their desperation to prevent the nomination of Bernie Sanders.

All the Democratic candidates not named Joe are facing a dilemma: How do they foster the impression that they've got just as good a shot at winning the nomination and beating Donald Trump? After months of coverage about what a weak candidate Biden would be, he's totally upended the race, at least based on the polls that are crack cocaine for political reporters.

President Donald Trump reacted to Wednesday's Senate Judiciary Committee hearing with a counter-punching defense of his attorney general, blasting California Sen. Kamala Harris and other Democrats for how they grilled him. 'She was probably very nasty,' Trump said during an evening interview on the Fox Business Network, reflecting on Harris, New Jerey Sen. Cory Booker and Minnesota Sen. Amy Klobuchar. They’re out there ranting and raving like lunatics, frankly,' he added, complaining that electoral politics invaded the hearing.

Here's some suggestions to get the ball rolling: BIDEN 2020: "Groping & corrupting in order to stop the racists" SANDERS 2020: "Pay more taxes and get the h*ll away from my Mercedes" BOOKER 2020: "Not that there's anything wrong with that" WARREN 2020: "Yo b*tches, I'm still here!!"

<p>"Welcome to the race Sleepy Joe," Trump said in a tweet.</p>
<p>"I only hope you have the intelligence, long in doubt, to wage a successful primary campaign," Trump added sarcastically.</p>

According to actuarial tables maintained by the Social Security Administration, the life expectancy of a 70 year-old man is 14.30 years -- enough time to serve two terms and move on to physical decline. The life expectancy of a 78 year-old man is 9.33 years -- enough to last two terms and not a lot more. The life expectancy of a 79 year-old man is 8.77 years -- barely enough to make it out of the White House. Of course, each man might live to 100. None of us knows. But given their age, the issue is more than just...

It's fine to disagree with Trump about our immigration problem. But if you side with a murderous criminal gang over the president of the United States, why should anybody vote for you?

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The Democratic National Committee on Wednesday said it will not allow Fox News to host any of its candidates’ political debates through 2020, citing a report this week about the conservative channel’s ties to U.S. President Donald Trump. “Recent reporting in the New Yorker on the inappropriate relationship between President Trump, his administration and Fox News has led me to conclude that the network is not in a position to host a fair and neutral debate for our candidates,” DNC Chairman Tom Perez said in a statement provided to Reuters. “Therefore, Fox News will not serve as...

Virginia politics descended further into chaos on Wednesday, and Democrats in the capital grew more dismayed by the possibility that a trio of scandals involving their top three statewide officials had laid waste to years of work building up the Democratic Party in the commonwealth. The controversies have created a pseudo-standoff between scandal-plagued Gov. Ralph Northam, Lt. Gov. Justin Fairfax and Attorney General Mark Herring, all of whom are fighting to hang on to their jobs as public outrage grows around each of them. None of them wants to resign first, creating a scenario where all of them could hold...

Two African-American senators with eyes on the White House denounced the attack on Tuesday of "Empire" actor Jussie Smollett, who is black and openly gay, calling it a "modern-day lynching" that necessitates a Congressional response. Smollett was attacked in Chicago by two men who hurled racial and homophobic slurs at him and wrapped a rope around his neck, according to police, who are investigating the act as a hate crime.

Back YahooNEWS Bernie Sanders set to announce 2020 presidential run Hunter Walker Hunter Walker Yahoo NewsJanuary 26, 2019, 6:46 AM GMT+7 WASHINGTON—Three years after fighting a surprisingly competitive Democratic primary race against Hillary Clinton, Sen. Bernie Sanders, the Vermont independent, is making another run for the White House. Two sources with direct knowledge of his plans told Yahoo News that Sanders, an independent and self-described “democratic socialist,” plans to announce his presidential bid imminently.

Former Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe, who is inching toward a 2020 Democratic presidential bid, launched a full frontal attack on President Trump’s leadership, blaming him for expanding racial division in America. “He has unleashed something,” said the Democrat and close ally to both former President Clinton and his wife Hillary Rodham Clinton. He initially joked about his 2020 plans. “I’m going to announce right here,” he said at a conference on the Trump presidency at the University of Virginia’s Center for Politics in Charlottesville, Va....

This may be the election cycle where we watch identity politics destroy itself live on stage. It'll be the greatest show on earth. With multiple declared candidates, the 2020 election season is now underway. And there couldn't be more hype for the forthcoming Democratic primaries, which will feature candidates with plenty of flaws trying desperately to prove their woke credentials. Orville Redenbacher better start paying his employees overtime because our nation is about to experience an unprecedented demand for popcorn. And it’s not because Super Bowl LIII is just around the corner. Something far more entertaining and brutal than adult...

Well, we knew that the Democratic field in 2020 was going to be crowded. It was going to be filled by everyone. From Julian Castro to Sen. Liz Warren (D-MA), Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-HI) to Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA), every so-called up-and-coming Democrats thinks they have a shot to take on President Trump in the next presidential election. It remains to be seen. Gabbard and Castro are lightweights with zero constituencies. Harris has a problem with the Bernie Sanders wing of the party. And Warren won’t be able to appeal to voters who aren’t super liberal and super condescending. Oh, there...

As soon as the 2018 election concluded, the 2020 cycle began. It never ends. It’s a perpetual war. And as we conclude 2018, the Democratic clown car is getting ready for its magical mystery tour across the country. It’ll be a race of who can out-left wing the other, who can call to officially abolish ICE first, who can raise taxes more, who can entangle business in the most in regulations, and who can be the most anti-Trump candidate. It’s going to be entertaining—annoying but entertaining. The first slate of candidates is reportedly Sens. Kristen Gillibrand (D-NY), Kamala Harris (D-CA),...

One months from now, most of the contenders for the 2020 Democratic nomination will have officially declared their intention to run, according to NBC News. In a report published Friday, NBC News said that Senators Elizabeth Warren, Kamala Harris and Corey Booker are all planning to announce their campaigns next month, while a handful of other contenders are also gearing up for campaign launches of their own. The reason candidates are planning to announce so early in the cycle really comes down to one factor: Money, as NBC explained. Particularly in what's expected to be an intense battle of attrition...
