Cher, one of Hollywood’s most outspoken leftists, knows exactly whom she would like to see challenge President Donald Trump in 2020.
The musician, who campaigned for Hillary Clinton in the 2016 presidential election, told IDK she wants to see a ticket made up of Joe Biden, the former vice president, and Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.) or Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-Calif.).
“I know Joe Biden and I know him to be a really great man,” she said when asked about the next presidential election.
The 72-year-old singer continued, “I would love to see [Biden] with someone young.”
She then mentioned Harris and Swalwell as possible running mates for Biden.
“[Sen.] Kamala Harris or — I can’t remember what Swalwell’s first name is,” she said.
“I love Cher’s music and am honored she’d consider me for that role,” Swalwell told IDK in response to Cher’s endorsement. “I also give her a lot of credit for remembering the harder part of my name.”
Cher is one of the current president’s more vulgar and extreme critics on social media.
She’s even called Trump a “f***ing traitor” in the past.
There isn’t yet a true Democratic front-runner for the 2020 race; leftists are all over the map on that.
Some even recognize what a mess the party is right now — and believe Trump will walk away victorious once again.
Bruce Springsteen recently said he believes Democrats have no one equipped to properly challenge the president and that Trump will likely win in 2020.
Leftist filmmaker Michael Moore has warned that 2020 could be the end of democracy, but his ideas for candidates have been scattershot.
He has mentioned everyone from actor Tom Hanks to media mogul Oprah Winfrey to Michelle Obama, the former first lady.
The only thing Moore is sure about is that Democrats need to focus on “celebrity” in their next bid for the White House.
“I’ve said for years that Oprah [Winfrey] should run. I’ve asked Tom Hanks twice to run,” Moore recently said on “Good Morning Britain.”
“Who doesn’t like Tom Hanks? Nobody, right? Tom Hanks would win. I said, ‘You’re the only one that can save us.’ Maybe Michelle Obama. Everyone loves Michelle Obama.”
He also said on “The View” of celebrity leftists, “The celebrities on our side, first of all, are smart. If we ran Al Franken, run Tom Hanks … Who wouldn’t vote for Tom Hanks for president of the United States? Come on. Oprah!”
