Jeb Bush tossed his hat in the ring. It could come down to Clinton v Bush, deja vu all over again. Then again both brand names while well known, might have brand name fatigue by now.
He's not likely going to make past first round if we're talking real talk here. He's a candidate sure, but a loon candidate, even with Trump money (which his hyperbolic inflated claim doesn't stand up to scrutiny). I'd agree he's entertaining as a sideshow candidate, sure.
Going past the sideshow distractions, what issues and ideas will be brought to the playoffs, and would they even be covered or discussed by most media. I wouldn't be surprised if extreme and shallow identity politics will get trotted out, while things that can use closer scrutiny gets sidetracked. Not a new pattern if a distraction play happens, but there are some things worth the serious discussion and closer scrutiny on.
