This man is about to be the GOP's Obama. Watch him. https://twitter.com/nymag/status/1329706577511804928
He's straight out of central casting. He's built a motivational speaking career after being partially paralyzed in a car crash, and his disability will inoculate him against some criticisms and fire. He's already dodged accusations of sexual harassment.

I can hear it now - accusations of ablist behavior everytime someone comes at him.
He's the youngest person elected to congress in 200 years, and they're about to pin the future of the party on him. Watch.
Ableist* ugh.

Some of y'all are debating me about Cawthorne and I say to you sincerely; you're bugging.

Watch this clip of his RNC speech, ALL the way to the end, and tell me - 2 weeks after we realized 70M ppl still voted for Trump - that he ain't about to be the GOP's rising star.
He can only be a politician, a televangelist, or blow his motivational speaking game up. He's a star. And not by OUR standards - that's where the ppl debating me are fcking up. Our standards of measurement don't count. When you say, "but he's a nazi," I offer you "EXACTLY."
Which is the very reason I'm talking about him now. But that means taking him seriously instead of waving him away because of that.
They're gonna try a Trump-level experiment again. Maybe not in 24, but the next one won't be as ridiculous a person...

If they can get their same hateful ass ideals in a more accessible and presentable package, with someone who can still create a celeb-type following, so many ppl who were put off by Trump will buy right on in.
BINGO.
The kid's got a narrative of triumph, he knows how to sell it, and and I really can't emphasize enough how key it is that he's a young, handsome guy. There are few to no young attractive men in the GOP.

We need to be cultivating a talent pool on the left in preparation so we're not arguing about how every candidate too centrist, too conservative, too radical, too old, not enough experience, too uninspiring, etc every 4 years.
