Why identity politics could be good politics for Democrats in 2020, via FiveThirtyEight:

in a way previous Republican presidential candidates did not. In other words, the key difference between 2012 and 2016, per Jardina’s findings, was not really that Clinton ran a campaign with less economic populism and more talk about race.

Looking forward to 2020, the Democratic presidential candidate probably can’t avoid an election where issues like immigration are at the forefront, since Trump is running and he loves talking about them.. But there is an alternative bloc of 2012 Obama voters who didn’t back Clinton in 2016 — and they may easier for Democrats to woo back in 2020. Using data from the 2016 Cooperative Congressional Election Study, political data experts Bernard L. Fraga, Sean McElwee, Jesse H. Rhodes and Brian F.

FiveThirtyEight 😂😂😂 I hope it works for you like it did in 2016

FiveThirtyEight Am I missing something here or the Democrats in a dream world! They have done nothing since the election and did nothing to help migration or immigration! Are they thinking Americans are asleep they will lose big time!

FiveThirtyEight

FiveThirtyEight identity politics is the crime of the century!

FiveThirtyEight Booker the no win,look what he did in Newark,also kissing Christie's ass ,buddy with the Red Hat,Viagra popping Trump,w e need more blue pills,we are totally impotent,but we love money and power.

FiveThirtyEight Don't make me laugh ( it hurts to much ) identity could be good for the DEMS? The pic shows old MAD MAX being held up in the walk. Just like we all know, RUTH is dead. Do you really think that the AMERICAN people are STUPID?

FiveThirtyEight I think if you dems want to appeal to black voters that rub fecal matter all over themselves and then blame whitey, you'll need to get Tawana Brawley and Sharpton out there campaigning.

FiveThirtyEight No.

FiveThirtyEight Identity politics are never good politics.

FiveThirtyEight This only leads to more division among people.

FiveThirtyEight Yeah because it's worked out so well for them in the past

FiveThirtyEight Here's another identity politics idea: Get the votes of ugly, stupid, shrill, corrupt, mentally challenged people by putting maxine waters on the campaign trail. It's a sure fire winner!

FiveThirtyEight This is [their] agenda. Divide and conquer. Dividers will fail. Sheep no more. UnitedNotDivided

FiveThirtyEight Worthless. Meanwhile Tulsi has real ideas and gets ignored.

FiveThirtyEight yeah, it should work. Example, you've got a racist black homosexual democrat in Jussie Smollett. So get him out on the campaign trail and his appeal will be to other racist black homosexual democrats and you'll get their votes! I'm sure it'll help you win many elections. 😂

FiveThirtyEight

FiveThirtyEight Bernie isn't wearing a suit. interesting

FiveThirtyEight

FiveThirtyEight Well it worked it in the 2008 and 2012 elections

FiveThirtyEight

FiveThirtyEight Race politics. Oh wow. That's new..

FiveThirtyEight This is getting really exciting!

FiveThirtyEight If Trump wins Florida, Ohio and Penn it's all over. He can lose the rest of the battlegrounds and still win. Florida will be tough and Penn and Ohio are not amenable to this identity politics slant. All it'll do it pad the losing Dem cand.'s votes in Cali and NY.

FiveThirtyEight Horrible thesis. Identity politics is what holds democratic party back. If it cannot get a grip and be a mainstream party culturally I would like to see a 3rd party in 20'

FiveThirtyEight Ibtweestibg calculus of division and resentment. Notice it all about what to say to win... not actual governing. Just access to power.

FiveThirtyEight Eh, I say make sure the general public understands that D.C. Democrats are about fighting for their Medicare & ACA. Also keep talking the benefits of jobs with green new deal work ups.

FiveThirtyEight It's literally all dems have to offer.

FiveThirtyEight Man, idk about that.

Break 'em up, say Dems: Why the 2020 field is taking aim at monopoliesDrawing a page from turn-of-the-century populists, Democrats running for president are increasingly railing against monopoly power on the campaign trail.

Opinion | First infrastructure plan of 2020 campaign: What it is and why it mattersAmy Klobuchar's plan shows how Democrats differ from Republicans when it comes to government fixing things. Before I read it, is the difference that they want the government to fix things instead of to not fix things? What happened to the fake Russian malarkey? Oh right, there never was any. Opinion: Democrats want to control, not fix things. Not sure why folks are wasting money on running campaigns, Trumps got a 99% chance of winning. But, I do think Democrats should lower the voting at to 1 year old, maybe they'll stop killing babies.
