Putting aside a sprawling criminal probe of potential collusion with Russia and midterms that could swing Congress to the Democrats, President Donald Trump may have another obstacle to a second term: Starbucks Chairman Howard Schultz. The coffee kingpin has $3.2 billion to fund a possible run for the White House. That's $400 million more than Trump.
Main Idea: Howard Schultz may be considering a run for president, backed by his Starbucks wealth, which could make him a major challenge in the next election.
Key Points:
A Schultz presidential run could add more political noise and spending, with uncertain results for voters and households.
Schultz and Starbucks could give voters another choice and force bigger debate on wages, jobs, and business policy.
