Steve Bullock looking to introduce himself as someone who won in Trump country

CEDAR RAPIDS — Montana Gov. Steve Bullock doesn’t think his “late” start on the Iowa campaign trail has hurt him.

“I mean, Bill Clinton didn’t announce until October,” said Bullock, who entered the already crowded field of 2020 Democratic presidential hopefuls in mid-May.

As he campaigns in Iowa, he’s finding a “sense of excitement and an urgency about getting to make sure we have somebody who can beat Donald Trump,” Bullock said during a stop at a Cedar Rapids coffeehouse Thursday.

Iowa voters he’s talked to want to “make the right decision, not the fastest,” he added.

There aren't many Democrats who are likely to be impressed by someone who can appeal to people who voted for the orange frat boy racist friend to pedophiles.

Don't get me wrong; I'm glad the guy's a Democrat, but, again, it's not a great selling point.

Why in the hell isn’t he running for the Senate in the state he has already won?
Same thing applies to Hickenlooper in Colorado.
