Dem Rep. Smith on Rebuilding the Party: ‘We Have to Clearly Attack ... Wannabe Dictator’ Trump

‘— For challenging the fundamental basis of our democracy’

EXCERPT:

SMITH: “Well, I mean, he's wrong in the sense that that's not the point. The point isn't whether or not we have one person. And typical of a wannabe dictator to look at it from the standpoint of we have to have one person. That's not my issue. My issue is we have to have a message. We have to rebuild our coalition and rebuild our brand. And I've been saying it's a three step process. Number one, we have to clearly attack President Trump for the wannabe dictator he is, for challenging the fundamental basis of our democracy. And if people don't agree with us on that, we have to make the case. Stories out today about children being deported without due process. The stories go on and on.”
