Moreover, President Trump will be running for re-election in 2020 as a Republican. The President will undoubtedly rip Kasich and Hickenlooper to shreds. Kasich will additionally fail to obtain the needed support. Staunch conservatives and even some moderates will frown upon Kasich’s decision to team up with a Democrat. This decision will alienate the few people who may have supported him. Considering the fact that many Americans have questioned whether Kasich is a true Republican or a RINO [Republican In Name Only], collaborating with a left wing liberal won’t help his cause.
Aside from Kasich’s failed run in 2016 and (what many would consider) “RINO” tendencies, he simply is not well liked enough. A certain amount of charisma and energy is required in order to persuade voters to elect you as their leader. Kasich does not have what it takes, by any means. He is the typical, establishment politician. Americans do not want that caliber of leader anymore.
Possible Results of Kasich/Hickenlooper 2020
Kasich and Hickenlooper will not win the White House in 2020 even if they are foolish enough to try. The most likely outcome of these two men running as Independents is placing a slight dent in both the Republican Party and the Democrat Party as a result of Kasich/Hickenlooper being a bipartisan ticket. In the end, either a Democrat or a Republican will win the 2020 Presidential election.
