Tom Steyer, another billionaire “populist.” Photo: Tom Steyer via YouTube He’s threatened to do this silly thing before and held back. So when I read widespread media reports that Tom Steyer had changed his mind and would leap with his checkbook into a 2020 Democratic presidential field that’s so thick with candidates that he’ll have to buy a spot to land, I hoped it was a head fake or even a joke.
Perhaps there is a constituency of people longing for someone like Tom Steyer to run for president, but even he doesn’t have the money to find and motivate them. In the places where his candidacy will need to show some life, like Iowa and New Hampshire, voters have actually heard of Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders and others with a far deeper and more credible record of combating corporate power.
