Harold Ford Jr.: Trump ‘Has Democrat Views, and Republican Views, and Some Views that Defy Both Parties’

EXCERPT:

FORD JR.: “You have 55 people retiring from the Congress, 34 Republicans, many of those seats are seats that Democrats lost about one or two points in the last cycle. Democrats were running competitive people in those races. Democrats shouldn’t feel overconfident because of the 2025 results and even the last few weeks results. Because if you don’t have answers, either party, if you think it’s all partisanship, you’re not going to win. What I do agree with, Greg, is that Donald Trump is a transformational figure in politics. He upended the normal vernacular. He’s aligned with Republicans, but he has Democrat views and he has Republican views and he has some views that defy both parties. You’re going to win the electorate if you answer, if you take seriously their concerns.”
