One thing has become clear in this election: the traditional way of running campaigns – raising money, building a good ground game, putting headquarters and phone banks all over the place, filming ads, etc – is dead. Today is all about grabbing as many twitter and FB space with any means at your disposal. Outrageous statements that make for good memes, attention grabbing insults, hysterical outbursts on Twitter that give pundits a chance to talk about nothing else for days – this is the new winning strategy.
For 2020 Democrats need a clown.
