What Kind of Democrat Can Beat Trump in 2020?
The New York Times ^ | November 2, 2018 | Frank Bruni

Corey Lewandowski managed Donald Trump’s presidential campaign for a year, co-wrote a book about it and keeps in close touch with Trump, as we were reminded last month, when The Times reported on a physical altercation between him and John Kelly, the White House chief of staff, just outside the Oval Office.

So I figured that his thoughts about the best Democrat to take on Trump in 2020 were as germane as anybody’s.

He told me that Mike Bloomberg worried him, because Bloomberg’s personal wealth would spare him the distraction of fund-raising, and that Joe Biden had the right instinct when he said that if he and Trump had gone to high school together, he would have “beat the hell out of him.”

He noted that Beto O’Rourke, the Senate candidate in Texas, had impressively crossed the threshold of celebrity. Andrew Gillum, the candidate for governor in Florida, had caught lightning, too....

Yep - they know what they have is insufficient and the “new blood” is even worse except for having a more youthful appearance...maybe they will give them saxophone lessons....

Frank Bruni at the NY Slimes is a genuine dummy.

It was John Bolton, NOT Corey Lewandowski, who had a little dust-up with John Kelly outside the Oval.

We will know a lot more in a week.

Their choices at present come down to Joe Biden or Lee Harvey Oswald.

Thanks for the correction. I didn’t think it was Corey.

And the perfect 2024 Dem candidate, other than the small problem of mortality, but then they are Dems so even a Chi Pet would work.

I’ve always said Democrats don’t want a president - they want a king.

“Sounds like Maxine Waters... At least she has James Brown’s hair.”

That’s funny — and so true.

GOP ads need to blast the airwaves with Maxine’s vile talk and actions. Show a clip of “them” condemning Trump’s rhetoric, followed by all of MW’s pathetic and violent rants.

Wrong. It was Corey and Kelly. Corey was asked about it on FOX.

They are looking for somebody handsome, with a great head of hair.

Yes, that fits the candidates they’ve been spending lots of money on: Jon Ossoff and Beto.

Another thing that the Leftists love: someone who looks like JFK or Robert Kennedy. We could say that part of Kerry’s allure for them was that same fact.

Very good contest! I definitely see a resemblance in young Staline to the Leftist ideal candidate.
