John Hickenlooper dropped out of the presidential race Thursday, and Twitter has a lot of opinions.

There are numerous mentions of Hickenlooper possibly joining the Senate race against Sen. Cory Gardner, though Hickenlooper himself has not committed to that yet.

Some have praised Hickenlooper’s decision and said that other Democratic candidates should consider dropping out to run in the senate.

Many Twitter users have pointed out that the former Colorado governor’s 2020 campaign had not gained much traction at this point.

Meanwhile, late-night hosts Jimmy Fallon and Stephen Colbert roasted Hickenlooper for his lack of public recognition.

“Do you guys know about John Hickenlooper?” Fallon asked the audience. “Yeah, that’s part of the problem. He’s leaving the race – when he broke the news to all his supporters, they were like, ‘Cool, Dad, thanks for telling us.'”

Colbert praised Hickenlooper for his alleged plan to run against Gardner while cracking a joke.

“You see, finally a man willing to step up, put aside his ego, and do what is good for the country,” Colbert said. “That guy should run for president.”

Like the oil in an Iowa State Fair deep-fryer, the race to replace President Trump is heating up. Stephen covers all the latest developments in this edition of “Doin’ It Donkey Style.” #Meanwhile #Colbert #LSSC

The Late Show with Stephen Colbert is the premier late night talk show on CBS, airing at 11:35pm EST, streaming online via CBS All Access, and delivered to the International Space Station on a USB drive taped to a weather balloon. Every night, viewers can expect: Comedy, humor, funny moments, witty interviews, celebrities, famous people, movie stars, bits, humorous celebrities doing bits, funny celebs, big group photos of every star from Hollywood, even the reclusive ones, plus also jokes.

It does appear some will miss Hickenlooper’s presence on the campaign trail.

If Hickenlooper does intend on running against Gardner, he certainly has supporters on Twitter.
