Former Biden Adviser: Dem Candidates Attacking Each Other ‘Is Both Good for Donald Trump and the Trump Campaign’

‘Elections are about choices’

EXCERPT:

HOOPES: “Look, I think for his prep for this debate, he knows that people are going to be coming at him. De Blasio, Cory Booker, Harris, they’ve all sort of telegraphed it. So when you get ready for something like this, you prepare for the worst, and you hope for the best. You know, what voters are interested in is hearing about the future, and about where these candidates want to take the party. But unfortunately, with such little time, you've got ten candidates on the stage, in a two-hour debate. You have 8 to 9 minutes to use that time to try and take down or attack another Democrat. That is both good for Donald Trump and the Trump campaign, it also, I think, takes away from what these other candidates need to be doing, which is talking about themselves and about how they're different and what they stand for. Elections are about choices.”
