Only a unifying figure can beat Trump in 2020, former Clinton adviser jmpalmieri says by jonward11
If Democrats don’t put forward a unifying candidate in 2020, and try to win back at least some voters who supported President Donald Trump in 2016, they will lose, a prominent Democratic operative said.
“The press equates enthusiasm and interest on the Democratic side with ideological extremism, and those two things, I don’t think, go together,” Palmieri said.Palmieri said she has been “laughing out loud at how wrong these predictions always are and yet no one ever seems to say with any sort of humility, ’That’s what it seems like now but here’s what I know: It will be different in a year.
Palmieri wrote a book that came out a year ago called “ Dear Madam President ,” in which she exhorts female leaders to imagine new models of leadership that are feminine, and not carbon copies of how men demonstrate leadership. “Nothing made sense to me anymore. Right. This is how the man who worked in coal his whole life and now can’t find a decent job feels,” she wrote. “This is how the cabdriver who has been run out of business by Uber feels. This is how everyone feels whose life plan was blown up by some unexpected and confounding force.”
Palmieri said it was too early in the process to give any particular Democratic candidate an edge, but said Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, D-NY, is one candidate who is “underestimated.”
