Post #14. With so many rats running for president in 2020 it's hard to keep up with who's in and who's out. Hopefully, this post will help. Below is a list of declared candidates, their occupation, the date they dropped from the race (if they did) and misc. notes.
This thread will be reposted each week, likely on Monday, with the dropouts from the previous week and newly declared candidates noted. The dust biter(s) from last week Tim Ryan:
"I got into this race in April to really give voice to the forgotten people of our country. I look forward to continuing that fight.

Hillary is in the wings knocking them down one by one.

Queen had a fun song that I’d like to dedicate to the latest America-hater to drop out. Good riddance, Tim Ryan!
I have a feeling that Bloomberg is sniffing the wind. He has got his own resources to spend.
22. Tom Steyer businessman
Has commercials here in South Carolina. Seems to be a calm, pleasant individual. Too bad he’s a Democrat.
If you’re, “Calm and pleasant” you’re not paying attention. He’s probably spending too much time thinking about his tax paid benefits, lucrative salary and that gold plated tax paid retirement pension.
Did Steyer drop out?

He’s a maroon.
Thomas Fahr Steyer (born June 27, 1957) is an American billionaire, hedge fund manager, philanthropist, environmentalist,(although he earned most of his wealth investing in overseas coal mines, and still to this day invests in them.) liberal activist, and fundraiser.
I watched him speak a few weeks ago. He’s a maroon.

Tulsi Gabbard’s Presidential campaign has raised $9M, spent $7M - unfortunately her House campaign (suspended) is under water by $2M.

This is very unusual for an incumbent House member, no?
I’m guessing her Presidential campaign “borrowed” from her House campaign? I don’t know if her creditors on her House campaign get to go after her Presidential campaign.
Maybe not...Booker’s Senate campaign is under water by $4M,
http://www.thegreenpapers.com/G20/NJ
He’s raised $18M and spent $14M.
Steyer isn’t a Democrat.....
He is a hard core Socialist who has been backing gun control and the Global Warming tax for over 15 years.
He is what I call a Stealth Candidate.
He pretends to be a moderate but he is funding most of the Impeachment money to the DNC.
Chickenpooper and Steyer are the only ones I’m worried about.
Fortunately we don’t need to worry about the guy from CO until at least 2024.
I see, he’s already wealthy. This would indicate he wants political power...His motive is likely to increase his own wealth.
He pretends to be a moderate but he is funding most of the Impeachment money to the DNC.
But he seems to be such a calm and pleasant individual.☺
So 26 initial candidates. 8 have dropped out. Leaving 18. And 1 stealth candidate aiming for a floor nomination.
There are 2 states that have to have filings done in November if Hillary wants to join in the primary vote instead of a floor nomination. It accelerates after that.
I expect her to avoid the campaign and try to step in at the convention. It’s a risky strategy, but it does allow her the advantage of not having to reverse extreme liberal policies that the others are advocating. She can go instantly to a moderate position. But I see her losing anyway. She won’t have enough time to get her message out. And has and will burn too many bridges along the way.
thanks for this...
maybe we can find the “in” dates
