TRAIT #3: The candidate who defeats Donald Trump must electrify young people. Hillary Clinton was the first Democratic nominee in decades who was not also the #1 choice of young people. Bernie won all people under 30 across every Demographic. But Hillary got the nomination.
TRAIT #4: The candidate who defeats Donald Trump must present a clear, stark contrast to Donald Trump himself. They must have integrity, principles, values, must stand for actual policies, etc. A candidate who muddies the water with Trump will be very problematic.
TRAIT #5: The candidate who defeats Donald Trump must have a proven record of fundraising. This will be the most expensive, consequential presidential campaign in modern American history. The candidate cannot rely on the Democratic Party itself to get this right for them.
I'll close there. I have dozens of other things I look for in a presidential candidate that all deal with policy. But the 5 traits I just shared are what I strongly believe we need in a candidate to defeat Trump. VERY FEW people, sadly, fit that bill. 3 to 4 people.
. #OcasioForPresident2020 @Ocasio2018 - she's demonstrated more courage before arriving in Congress than most congressional dinasours currently there. #AMDG
@TheRock absolutely does
Those policies must be a clear alternative to oligarchic-corporate kleptocracy: a massive restoration of the safety net, jobs guarantee, and a bold transition to a green economy: make the contrast stark and electrify new voters. This must start in 2018 races
Yeah, like someone who had Tad Devine as chief stategist for their campaign, a guy who has been connected to Manafort. Don't think this would be the right person for 2020. Just sayin'.
They must have integrity, principles, values, must stand for actual policies, etc. That's like finding a needle in a haystack.
The candidate must be able to respond to verbal insults, almost have the skill of playing the dozens in a classy way! This is a must. Otherwise, s/he will look weak, stupid and boring like the candidates looked in 2016! Remember John Kennedy's sharp wit!
#TreasonousTrump should be the last of the Reagan neoliberal regime. The progressive reconstruction will finally put people over profits.
Every candidate will be a clear contrast to Trump. And while I hope for honesty, integrity, etc... we've certainly seen that none of those qualities make a damn difference to Republican voters.
