Former Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz ends presidential campaign

Former Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz is ending his 2020 presidential campaign. The 66-year-old billionaire put his campaign on hold back in June. Schultz had planned to spend roughly $100 million. He says he does not want to be a spoiler if former vice president Joe Biden becomes the democratic nominee. Schultz also cited several recent back surgeries that have hampered his ability to travel.

He appeared on ABC The View about ten months ago to announce that he was running but that was the last and only platform that I saw him on.
