18. Lastly, the Democratic candidate in 2020 must have a demonstrated history of being able to organize people on the national level. It would help if they have a real presence in all 50 states and know how to organize and mobilize people in practical ways.
19. In summary, here are the 4 factors needed to defeat Trump. a. A huge social media following b. A deeply devoted base of support - enough to pack stadiums c. A strong contrast in personality & character to Trump d. Experience with organizing on the national level
20. I believe just 3 people have the 4 factors to defeat Trump easily. Others could still win, but these 3 people would crush him. A. Oprah B. Michelle Obama C. Bernie Sanders Biden could win. Booker, Harris, Warren, Gillibrand could win Oprah, Michelle, Bernie would crush it
21. I agree with every single argument that "we don't need another celebrity." But 2020 is not normal. The person does not have to be a celebrity per se, but to defeat Trump, to win back the news cycle, will take very unique factors that only a few people have It's where we are
22. End of thread. We must not treat running against Trump like it's a normal thing. He's not normal. How he dominates the news is not normal. Defeating him will require a different approach. We could perhaps go back to normal down the road. But we're not there yet.
e. Under 75yo.
So basically.... Bernie Sanders.
I'm down.

Or just don’t be named Donald Trump. That’s how you win. Not being named Donald Trump.
That's not going to work.
You know how many people told me they voted for Trump Bc they didn’t want Hilary? Choose a better suited candidate and Donald doesn’t have a chance.
That's what I'm saying, make sure whoever candidate runs against Trump is a damned good one, not just anyone and certainly not another celebrity.
Can we worry about this in 2019 why now
Again sounds like @SenSanders or @ninaturner Or @TulsiGabbard . Why does it have to be Oprah?
As much as I appreciate your wisdom on many subjects, I feel like you’re overestimating Trump as a candidate. The R primarys were stocked w/ exceptionally weak candidates. I think McCain or Romney would’ve prevailed. Most of the people I know who voted for Trump weren’t 1/
Trump supporters. A lot of them didn’t like him at all. But it is hard to explain how much some ppl in the Midwest & south *hate* HRC. When Bill was president, our preachers hinted he was literally the antichrist, & she was the awful shrew who enabled him & stood by him 2/
There are (otherwise) calm & rational ppl in my family who can’t even talk about her without literally shaking in rage. /X
Wouldn't Bernie Sanders meet all of these
Nah—just not being a Clinton should be enough.
We had all that in 2016 but the DNC thought otherwise...
Then we're doomed, no such Dem Unicorn exists.
