Has Klobuchar said anything about 2020?

I was watching the Kavanaugh hearing at a tv in a common area at a local university a few weeks ago. A few Republicans were sitting near me, and I was gritting my teeth as they hurled insults at all the Democratic Senators as they were asking questions.

But then Klobuchar asked her questions, and she was the one Dem Senator who the Republicans admitted was very likeable. I really think that someone like that could destroy Trump in 2020. I think there's a moderate center of the country which is tired of the culture wars and would get behind someone like Klobuchar.

Anyway, has she ever said anything about running in 2020?

But I think I remember Rachel encouraging her at one point. I think she would be wonderful!

It's exciting that we have so many incredible possibilities - so much talent on our side for 2020. I'm off to the Mueller march now. Got my sign all ready:

"No Man (crossed out) Baby is above the law" with a picture of the Trump baby balloon attached!

as someone who has the very large ego you just have to have to run for President. I agree she'd be very good.

It seems that our losing candidates have a lack of charisma. In order to take on Trump (who does have charisma), we need someone with the charisma of Obama.
