Which Dem can win general election in 2020?

Biden and Beto
Or maybe
Michellle O and Beto

Um, seriously?!?!? Michelle Obama has said repeatedly that she has absolutely no interest in holding elected office or politics in general.

Or maybe Michelle and Springsteen.

Or maybe Oprah and Antonio Banderas.

Nice sarcasm coming from a party who elected a reality star. Y’all might as well boot Pence for Kid Rock.

The only people acting are the professional Democrats who won't stop their circle-jerking long enough to get that at best this is a small step. Given how widespread the whole Democratic Party was defeated in 2016, this isn't the time to get self-congratulatory.

Who in the last two pages of this thread has been self-congratulatory about the 2018 House midterms?

In the meantime, Kamala Harris is kicked out of senate judiciary committee because Dems lost seats in the senate.

Bernie Sanders with Tulsi Gabbard as VP.

Both can appeal to the base and pull disenfranchised working class voters from Trump. Most importantly they’re both solidly on the side of old-school Democrat values and aren’t neo-liberals in blue collar costumes, like Bill Clinton and Biden. Their authenticity and lack of BS make them stand out in the field. They also try to not traffic too much in identity politics, which has been a wedge issue that Republicans have used to pry people who have always historically voted D. A Bernie / Gabbard ticket is not losing Michigan and Pennsylvania, for example. Gabbard’s straight forward demeanor, lack of relative pretense (for a politician), military service and consistently strong non-interventionist, anti-corporate stances make her the anti-Hillary and a very hard person for Trump to go after. She’d also be a way to encourage women voters, even moderate Rs, to vote for the Dems.

I didn't elect a reality star. YOU did, crazy American

I've always liked Chris Murphy. He really took the massacre of the Newtown kindergarteners to heart and tried to make change.

Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) on Sunday left open the possibility of running for president in 2020.

"I just got reelected and I don’t think that, frankly, I need to run for president to make a difference for my state or the country," Murphy told ABC's "This Week," when asked if he was considering a White House bid.

"But I'll say this, I think in 2020 we need a candidate who is 100 percent authentic, who is tough, and who can challenge this president on both domestic policy and foreign policy and I’m simply going to make sure that we have a candidate that fits that bill.”

Wow, this sounds like an actual formula for defeating Trump, not another re-tread by entrenched Democrats who just want to keep their (and their plutocratic masters') gravy trains going. Are you sure you're in the right place?

Someone wasn’t paying attention during the midterms. No Democratic ticket is losing Michigan and Pennsylvania this time.

Bernie will be 79 years old by 2020. He is far less appealing to the young people and minorities than Beto and Kamala Harris would be (and no one who knows anything about politics would insist they have plutocratic masters.) Tulsi Gabbard hasn't expressed any interest in running for President, but I guess in your land of outer space, that's not an issue. Tammy Duckworth would be a better option as a military hero with more experience.

Prognostications brought to you by the same people who thought Trump would be the easiest candidate to beat in 2016.
