scandals for each of the prospective 2020 Democratic presidential candidates

[Fuzzy Bear]

Cory Booker is a gay

Yeah, I think it's pretty obvious at this point. Would he benefit from coming out though, or is America not ready yet for a gay president?

If America was ready for an admitted sexual assaulter President, they're ready for any type of President.

The fact that Cory Booker isn't out makes me suspect he isn't gay. Coming out is something that the majority of Americans celebrate now. It makes no sense for him to avoid it.

That people care about this is beyond me.

[Mr. Morden]

I'd say it's a reach to call this a "scandal", but it's the sort of thing I can imagine him getting attacked on in a national campaign, so I'll raise it here...

Booker getting campaign contributions from both Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner has come up again:

Ivanka has also donated $ to Cuomo, Gillibrand, and Harris:

I can see why they donate to east coast politicians (Cuomo, Gillibrand, Booker) but why Harris?

Anyone know anything on Chris Murphy, Amy Klobuchar, Jason Kander or Jack Reed?

I know Julian Castro got caught up in some Hatch Act problems, but can anyone find anything else on him?

Ouch. That is a not a good thing to have for Harris' potential presidential ambitions.

As the story says, Harris donated the $ from Donald to charity.  I'm not sure what else she was supposed to do.  Give it back to him?

My mistake. I didn't see that in the article at first.

I don't know why he didn't really trigger my gaydar before.

But now I see he's dating Oprah gf/bff Gayle King... Looks like we have a Will Smith/Jada Pinkett Smith situation going on here.

Huh?  No, he's been dating Cleo Wade since last year:

While not a candidate herself, Jane Sanders is a candidate's spouse, so this seems like something that could get talked about if her husband runs for prez again:
