Elizabeth Warren has not run before as a presidential candidate. She has been encouraged for years to become one. She also is the only candidate out there who addresses specifics in the party platform and her own agenda with demonstrations of where the money can come, and how to get the ball rolling in each field.
She certainly would be my pick if she can make it through the primaries. She is unfortunately more of a policy wonk and mathematician type, and not the schmoozing politician type. So she isn’t as charming as many simple-minded voters would like.
As for the Republican ploys, there are of course many. The leading one coming into this 2020 election is calling anyone left of Veneto Mussolini a “socialist”. None of the candidates are actually true socialists, but rather they are often promoting policies of a socialist democracy, which the United States already is, along with almost all western nations. Republicans don’t like that.
As for republicans schemes to trick American citizens out of their donations to Democrats. That is dera(n)ged, but it is unfortunately real.
Be careful
