Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton told the BBC on Tuesday that she's "under enormous pressure from many, many, many people to think about" entering the 2020 race.

What she's saying: Clinton told BBC Radio 5 Live's Emma Barnett that she thinks "all the time" about what it would've been like to be commander in chief if she had defeated President Trump in 2016.

The big picture: With no clear frontrunner in the crowded Democrats' 2020 field, billionaire former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg filed paperwork last Friday to enter the 2020 presidential primary in Alabama, though he has yet to decide if he'll run.

Former Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick is thinking about joining the race, per AP.
