I think they will hint about it, but I don't think they will attack him openly, but I would be wrong, only takes one desperate candidate willing to risk scorn to revive his campaign trailing at 3%.
Read today, think it was the Post that Bernie refuses to endorse Hickenlooper. Too moderate for the Vermont socialist senator?
Thomas Sowell: There are no solutions, just trade-offs.
Found it on the internet. Sanders said that he will work to get a democrat elected to the senate from CO. Remember that Hickenlooper was in Clinton's camp in 2016. Sanders won CO.
Doubt that Sanders feels any need to support Hickenlooper at this time. Hickenlooper is going to have to kiss the ring before he gets Sanders endorsement.
Pass the popcorn please.
Tom Steyer has qualified for the October democrat debate, bringing the total to 11 and therefore 2 debates unless someone drops out (democrat rules).
He met the 2% requirement in a poll in Nevada, which is accepted by the democrats.
Brave Democrat Tulsi Gabbard: “Unless a Woman’s Life or Severe Health Consequences Are at Risk – There Shouldn’t be Abortion in 3rd Trimester” (VIDEO)
From gatewaypundit.com Also on the rubin report on UTube
Ms. Gabbard is certainly not a cookie cutter copy of the democrat candidate. It is a shame that she will not be allowed in the debate this Thursday. She was unable to campaign for the last 2 weeks while on deployment with her unit of the U.S. Army reserve, in Indonesia. I encourage everyone to view some her positions on matters of importance, i.e. US involvement in foreign countries, 3rd trimester abortion, etc.

The Net Worth Of Every 2020 Presidential Candidate
From Forbes.com, (one of HA's frequent cites) 8/14/2019
Interestingly, it puts Yang's net worth at around $1 million. I had had the impression that he was worth significantly more. Seems that he is better at publicizing himself that amassing wealth. Wonder if he will give himself the $1000 per month also.

"Wall Street Democratic donors warn the party: We’ll sit out, or back Trump, if you nominate Elizabeth Warren
Democratic donors on Wall Street and in big business are preparing to sit out the presidential campaign fundraising cycle — or even back President Donald Trump — if Sen. Elizabeth Warren wins the party’s nomination.
In recent weeks, CNBC spoke to several high-dollar Democratic donors and fundraisers in the business community and found that this opinion was becoming widely shared as Warren, an outspoken critic of big banks and corporations, gains momentum against Joe Biden in the 2020 race.
“You’re in a box because you’re a Democrat and you’re thinking, ‘I want to help the party, but she’s going to hurt me, so I’m going to help President Trump,’” said a senior private equity executive, who spoke on condition of anonymity in fear of retribution by party leaders. The executive said this Wednesday, a day after Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced that the House would begin a formal impeachment inquiry into Trump."
My personal contacts, that work on Wall Street, echo this.
