Eric Swalwell jumping into the bandwagon. |
The Democratic field has more and more and more candidates running for the nomination.
Given if the election was held today, Donald J. Trump would mop the floor with them. He has 73% chance of winning reelection. The Democratic Party has a problem with trying to get a message together.
They managed to win on the narrative that Trump and Republicans are taking away your health care and giving the super rich tax cuts. Now it's "now we have to just defeat Trump."
Do you believe Eric Swalwell is ready to be President of The United States? (Expect the dumbest answers to be picked by trolls)
Swalwell, a Democratic congressman from California and a former Oakland prosecutor, has been teasing a 2020 presidential bid for months and made approximately 20 trips to Iowa since the 2016 election. On Monday night, he made his intentions national on “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.”
No signs of a Joe Biden announcement yet.
Swalwell is a progressive who wants to change the status quo. His biggest mission is to reform the nation's gun laws.
However, he is a supporter of legislation criminalizing anti-Israel protesting.
As he prepares to campaign vigorously in Iowa in the coming months, he said he believes his message and his background can connect him with Iowans.
“I want Iowans to know: I see you. I hear you. I’m for you,” he said. “That I’ve lived a life very much like yours.”
Swalwell often repeats the slogan "Go big. Be bold. Do good," and says he has a desire to "bring the promise of America to all Americans." He shares that he still has nearly $100,000 in college debt and is raising two children under two years old.
"People know everything about me is real," he said. "I know what it's like to be in a family living paycheck-to-paycheck."
Swalwell is married Brittany Watts has two children.
Swalwell was born in Sac City, Iowa and lived in the city until he was five years old. He move to California and lived in Dublin.
He is currently the U.S. Representative of the 15th District of California. He represents parts of Oakland, the Castro Valley and Haywood.
