Analysis: What Beto O'Rourke's entry means for the 2020 race
in the San Antonio area, a brushback for Republicans after their surprise 2018 win in a special election in South Texas. Early voting had been relatively strong for Republicans; a $15,000 state Democratic investment for Lopez made that irrelevant.President Trump speaks in the Oval Office on Thursday. On Thursday afternoon, around half of the Democrats seeking the presidency went on the record to limit their own prospective power.
“I believe in democracy, in which if people vote for Democrats they should get Democratic policies, and if they vote for Republicans they'll get Republican policies,” he said. But Democrats are talking about the resolution in wider-ranging terms than the politics might dictate. In a conversation before he passed on a 2020 presidential bid, Sen. Sherrod Brown suggested that Republicans needed to mislead about what Democrats would do — to argue that they, too, would declare emergencies to bypass Congress — to justify GOP support for Trump's emergency declaration.
The paradox: Democrats see a real emergency, an existential threat, coming to America in the next 10 to 15 years. Every Democrat opposing the Trump declaration also believes that man-made climate change could raise the global temperature by 2 to 4 degrees Celsius, leading to economic devastation, the displacement of hundreds of millions of people, and the effective end of major American cities such as Phoenix and Miami.
