Its a warm September day at a quaint winery in New Mexico, but while photos of happy brides and grooms line the walls, the people gathered here today arent celebrating a marriage. Theyre here to see Brad Parscale.
Parscale, President Trumps 2020 campaign manager, has a message for the 60 or so Trump supporters on hand at the Sept. 17 gathering. Volunteering is how you win, he says. Dont expect just money on TV and [a] digital program is going to win this again.
Trumps campaign is betting big on grassroots organizing in 2020, a significant change from his unorthodox and thinly staffed 2016 campaign. Theyve created the Trump Victory Leadership Initiative, a training program for volunteers and organizers modeled on the fellowship program Barack Obamas campaign pioneered in 2008 and 2012. According to Parscale, the Trump campaign had 700,000 trained volunteers in 2016. This time, theyre aiming for 2 million. In 2016, Trumps team had 5,000 trained fellows, a more experienced type of volunteer, Parscale says. Theyre already at 30,000 for the 2020 election.

Trumps team had 5,000 trained fellows...sounds anti female :)
Also sounds like a good ground game.
Deporting millions of illegal voters would be a good idea too.
We have to do what we CAN do.
There’s no Can’t in AmeriCan.
Well, there are times when you have to decide what’s wise, between ‘CAN and CAN’T do’, in the immediate circumstance; and take the long view.
(Someone suggested recently that I am ‘shy’. I told him that I am not shy - I’m ‘circumspect’.)
I think in the case of deporting illegals that are probably registered to vote the word “won’t” is more apt.
I think it’s more complicated than that.
(Run for office; get elected, and then try to get elected again. Report back to us what you experience, and your thoughts about it.)
By the size of the crowds he draws yeah grass roots (sarc)
In 2016, there was much buzz about how Cankles had so many more offices, trained staff, etc. Turned out they were overwhelmingly inefficient.
On the other hand, in 2012, all we heard about was Minion Romney’s “Orca” and how his computer program would save the day.
Parscale is very smart. I’m wondering if, in fact, this time around he hasn’t ditched much of his breathtaking social media campaign of 2016, where he used FB and Twitter like no one ever had, and is turning to the “run game.”
