Boxcar Abrams and Andy Gillum target Trump in 2020
[Politico] The progressive African-American pols have emerged as early kingmakers for Democratic presidential hopefuls.Stacey "Tank" Abrams and Andrew Gillum ‐ two of the Democratic Party’s breakout Loser candidates of 2018, despite losing their elections for governor of Georgia and Florida ‐ are looking to parlay their near-success into the defeat of Donald Trump in 2020. The pair of young, progressive African-American pols amassed so much political fame that they’re a must-call for the growing roster of likely Democratic presidential contenders. They’re also on some early and unofficial lists as possible vice-presidential running mates. The White House hopefuls don’t just crave an endorsement from Abrams or Gillum. Each boasts valuable donor and volunteer lists, in the Southeast’s two biggest states that, if won next year, would almost guarantee a Democratic White House. Posted by: Besoeker 2019-01-16 |
