If you remember back just a few months, it seemed that everyone was throwing their hat into the ring for the Democratic nomination. It was so ridiculous, that you might have expected to see the Queen of England announce her bid. While the circus is just getting started, the Democrats have already set to work weeding out the weakest candidates.
The first round of debates had 20 people on stage. They had to split the debates into different segments. The most recent debate knocked that number down to 10, but it was still out of control. A bunch of left-wing extremists were shouting over each other to see who could make the most insanely radical promises.
Well, the weeding process continues. It looks like the candidates are going to start dropping like flies. In the end, it’ll be the three-way race between Warren, Sanders and Biden that we all expected, with a couple of tagalongs who don’t know when they’ve lost. Until then, we do know who is next on the chopping block.
Cory Booker sent out an emergency email to his staff proclaiming that if they did not raise at least $1 million by the end of the month he would have to drop out of the race.
This isn’t entirely shocking given the fact that Booker never polled above single digits in any poll. The video below will explain why he failed to connect with voters. Needless to say, his perpetual look of surprise is finally being put to good use.
