Mayor Pete has some strong Trump vibes emanating from his odds to win.
, Mayor Pete is in a similar position to Donald Trump during the same time frame -- 1 year out from the 2016 election. Pete is sitting at a 6/1 chance to nab the Democratic nom, while Trump was 3/1 around this time in 2015. As for the Presidency -- Pete's odds are 12/1 and Trump was at 10/1. Pretty dang close, if you ask us.As for who's gonna take the big prize next November, Trump is still the odds-on favorite -- regardless of who runs against him -- at 6/5.
Back to Pete though ... the reason why it's interesting that he's got a bit of a Trump vibe around the same time the guy did back then is because -- like DT -- Mayor Pete is very much viewed as a dark horse candidate. Take into consideration that he is now the leading candidate out in Iowa as of Tuesday, and it makes ya wonder if he'll have the same success Trump himself had in the run-up to 2016.
