David Brooks endorses Kamala Harris

New York Times columnist David Brooks said Sen. Kamala Harris could be the Democrats’ best nominee to battle President Trump in 2020, and he said she might be able to “pulverize” him next year.

“To beat Trump, I suspect Democrats will want unity,” wrote Brooks, the paper’s center-right leaning columnist. “They won’t want somebody who essentially runs against the Democratic establishment (Bernie Sanders); they’ll want somebody who embodies it (Harris). They’ll want somebody who seems able to pulverize Trump in a debate (Harris).”
