FiveThirtyEight tries to figure out: Why Is Howard Schultz Getting So Much 2020 Attention?
Schultz is the billionaire former CEO of Starbucks who claims to have been a lifelong Democrat. He could compete for the Democratic nomination, in theory, but he is considering a run as an independent. Nate Silver and his team analyze his chances and his motives. Democrats are furious at him, because they fear that his third part run could bleed off enough votes to swing the 2020 election to Trump. Meanwhile, the press seems ecstatic at the prospect of a three-way race. They can't stop interviewing him and talking about him. How do you think this will play out in our election politics?
