Eric Swalwell (dropped out)
Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-Calif.) announced on Monday night (April 8) he is running for president in 2020.
The 38-year-old congressman revealed the news in an interview on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. Swalwell is now the 18th Democrat to launch a 2020 bid to challenge President Donald Trump.
“I see a country in quicksand, unable to solve problems and threats from abroad, unable to make life better for people here at home,” Swalwell, who has been in Congress for six years, told Colbert.
Swalwell said gun reform will be among the main issues his 2020 platform focuses on.
