      Listening more to Schultz, and his rejection of left-wing Democratic Party doctrines, seems entirely plausible that a non-trivial segment of Trump-weary Republicans could support him (there aren't many, but they exist). The "ex-Democrat" narrative is powerful in conservative lore

      In 2016, Trump significantly underperformed Romney in wealthy GOP areas, such as Northern Virginia and Orange County, CA. You could imagine some of these people latching onto a Schultz candidacy. Again: it's not a huge % of the electorate, but enough to complicate the overall map

          Schultz is basically proposing to run to the right of Trump on economics and to the left of Trump on immigration. Surely that combination will take votes from Trump, not from a Democrat candidate running largely on increased spending on social programs & increased taxation.

          I as well think Schultz would draw a lot of Trump voters. "he's not a politician he's a businessman" is an underrated hook

          virginia also went to hillary in 2016. if anything, it seems like any public never-trump sentiment from republicans in these areas might be out of social convenience rather than sincere political leanings.

          Does he change the electoral map tho? My guess is he gives trump a chance in CO MN VA as dems split their support between Schulz and some commie. What dates that he win become endangered?
