I’ve given hundreds to Yang. It’s amazing to me how many of his supporters are disenfranchised trump supporters. That’s a path to victory. People clearly want a non politician. Why not one that has intelligent ideas rooted in a respect for the electorate?

I would love to see Yang get the nomination.

I have no reason to believe that the Democratic establishment will treat him any more fairly than they have treated Bernie Sanders.
