No wonder the left wants him out so quickly. Not only because he will take votes away, but also because he sounds "sane" in comparison to the rest of the field!!

Howard Schultz digs in, says 'radical left' Democrat can't beat Trump
Former Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz rejected Democratic complaints that his Independent 2020 campaign will guarantee President Trump's re-election, and said Democrats themselves will guarantee a Trump victory by nominating a "radical left" nominee.
"The stakes are too high to cross our fingers and hope the Democratic Party nominates a moderate who can win over enough independents and disaffected Republicans, and even fellow Democrats, to defeat Trump next year," Schultz wrote in a blog post Monday. "That any opponent can oust Trump, no matter how far to the radical left they are, is a fallacy."
“Those so concerned about a centrist independent being a spoiler should perhaps ask another question: Will the eventual Democratic nominee be the party’s own version of a spoiler?” Schultz wrote.
Schultz has been criticized since he announced last month that he was considering running as a third-party candidate. The billionaire reiterated that he won’t run if he sees himself as a spoiler, but said he sees a potential path to the White House for a centrist independent.
“I hear and respect this overriding concern, and have repeatedly promised that I will not be a spoiler. I am committed to ensuring that I will do nothing to re-elect Donald Trump. I mean it,” he wrote.
