I am running for President as a Democrat in 2024.
My campaign will be about four main things.
First and foremost, it will be about the economy. We have to make life more affordable for the middle class, which is the issue that voters care about most. We need to bring down the cost of living and make life affordable again.
As part of making life more affordable, we have to celebrate success. America should be the most prosperous country in the world, and we need to be both pro-business and pro-worker to get there.
Second, it will be about safety. If people don’t feel safe in their communities, not much else matters. We have a drug crisis and a mental health crisis in this country; it’s taking a horrible toll on individual as well as their communities. We have to address it.
Third, my campaign will be about the generational change the country wants and policies that invest in our future, our young people.
And finally, it will be about listening to each other to get back to a less divisive political environment. There’s government reform that will help with this too—we need term limits, campaign finance reform, and things like bipartisan cabinets.
I promised my daughters when Trump won in 2016 that I’d stand up and do something about it, so I ran for Congress and am now on my third term.
I didn’t set out to enter this race. But it looks like on our current course, the Democrats will lose and Trump will be our President again. President Biden is a good man and someone I tremendously respect. I understand why other Democrats don’t want to run against him, and why we are here. This is a last-minute campaign, but desperate times call for desperate measures, and courage is an important value to me.
If President Biden is the Democratic nominee, we face an unacceptable risk of Trump being back in the White House. I know this campaign is a long shot, but that is why I think it is important and worth doing.
As I’ve been listening to voters the past few weeks, I’ve been really heartened by the support, and believe we can win both this primary and general election.
People know in their hearts that it’s time for a change. We can do this together. Everyone's Invited!
Great news @GovTimWalz ... but in your recent press conference you just said that we shouldn’t compare state to state and the reason for the tracking was NOT for ranking states. You said BUT the press insists on making comparisons (?). We’re all in this together.
NEW: Minnesota is now 5th in the nation for vaccination (and improving all the time). Yesterday alone we reported 70,000 vaccines administered, a new high!
“He'll have the most unprepared, incompetent legal team imaginable, which will make it extra pathetic when he's easily exonerated for something he transparently did.” — Mr. Rogue, on Trump’s legal team fleeing
Some strong words for about 9 minutes, if you have the time, especially if you’ve been a supporter of the soon-to-be past, Republican administration...
@ChrisCuomo@andersoncooper Shouldn’t they have waited to identify all these rioters until after 1/20? Aren’t all the charges going to be federal charges (since DC isn’t a state) allowing President Trump to grant blanket pardons if he’d like? I don’t know that he would, but...
Members of Congress elected on the very same ballots to which they plan to object on Jan 6 should refuse to be sworn-in tomorrow, for if Trump’s defeat isn’t legitimate, how can their victories be legitimate?
WOW! For some reason he thinks this video will actually help him. Has he ever read the words to the song YMCA or looked into the story of The Village People? Is this dancing? If you haven’t already, remember to VOTE #BidenHarris2020 today!!
There is no generic DOJ police force, obviously. No badges, no identifying info, refusal to say who they represent - it’s like Russia’s little green men have taken over the nation’s capital.
Today, we are participating in #BlackOutTuesday to pause and acknowledge the pain and suffering at the hands of a racist and unjust system.
We will take today to lift up our allies and amplify their voices.
President @realDonaldTrump met with Secretary @EsperDoD, @SecPompeo, senior military leadership, and national security team members in the Cabinet Room today.
