@AndrewYang Hey @andrewyang, I hope you get this in time for tomorrow's debate. Many supporters think it's time for you to create separation from the other candidates. So here is a random list of spicy ideas you can deliver in some shape or form tomorrow night: (emphasize words in all caps)
@AndrewYang "Its great to be back here, after missing the last debates. Turns out I was trending higher than EVERY SINGLE candidate on this stage DURING those debates. America missed me, I missed you guys too. Glad to be back!" (Get those laughs and applause for optics).
@AndrewYang Those politicians on stage are good at talking till the moderators stops them. Might be hard to do since you actually answer questions clearly and concisely...but try over-talking if you like. Pivot to other major points of your platform. Make them stop you like they stop Warren
@AndrewYang During your rebuttals, use phrases like "let me finish", "this is wrong", "disservice to the American People", "the problem with your plan". People think in pictures, paint it out for them. Words like "wrong", "problem" create much needed separation and helps people digest info.
@AndrewYang The spicy list: Look at this line up America. 150 years of experience on this stage led us to Donald Trump. Do u think America wants the same politicians that gave us Trump? U gave us Trump. Now Trump will give Americans Andrew Yang. (the audience will roar at this...let it stew)
@AndrewYang "Bernie, first and foremost, America is NOT going to vote for socialism but let me not digress. You propose a FJG and a $15 minimum wage for working Americans. Here's the PROBLEM with that..." or "here is where you're doing a disservice to the American people"
@AndrewYang "We all know that small business is the economic fabric of this country and $15/hr will put thousands of them out of business. They simply CANNOT afford it. Businesses will speed up automation and lay off more workers. Workers will get less hours as employees cut hours."
@AndrewYang "$1k/mo will help 11 million stay at home parents, care takers who stay home to take care of loved ones, millions of artists who depend on their craft to make a living and a $6/hr raise to everyone earning less than $15/hr. They get to keep that raise, EVEN IF they lose their job
@AndrewYang "$15/hr does NOTHING for the 90 million Americans of WORKING AGE who don't work. It does nothing for the 60% of working Americans who DO make more than $15/hr. My proposal gives them 1k/mo FOR LIFE. Bernie, your proposal does gives them NOTHING."
@AndrewYang "Bernie, there is NOT A SINGLE BILL you've proposed in 30years that has passed and you really believe you're going to get the republicans to pass single payer health care bill without a much much much more pragmatic approach? Good luck with that Bernie." (We need you to say this)
@AndrewYang It's not being mean, its just the truth. Bernie made it from a heart attack, he can handle the truth being told about him. Trust.
@AndrewYang "Elizabeth, hopefully you've finished reading my book by now. If you have, you'd understand that the "wealth tax" CANNOT compare to a VAT. You can't possibly BELIEVE that wealthy Americans won't game your "wealth tax."
@AndrewYang "With a VAT, you can't game us. We are coming for EVERY step of the supply chain like is done in all developed countries that REPEALED your wealth tax. The Amazon's of the world can escape a VAT but he will definitely escape YOUR wealth tax"
@AndrewYang "Elizabeth, you propose to add $200 to SS when American adults turn $65. (look in the camera) Well America, when you go to bed tonight I want you to ask yourself this question: Would you rather work for Bernie's $15/hr job for 40 years just to get an extra $200 from Liz at 65?"
@AndrewYang "OR would you rather get 1k/mo starting NOW for the rest of your life starting at age 18? As far seniors, do you want an additional $200/mo from Elizabeth Warren or an additional 1000/mo from Andrew Yang RIGHT NOW? My proposal will be the greatest expansion of SS in history"
@AndrewYang "I honestly don't see impressive proposals Pete is running on. He's a great speaker but great "political speech" does NOT put money in American's pockets. Great "political speech" does NOT fix our healthcare system. Great "political speech" for does NOT mean our kids are alright"
@AndrewYang (I have a whole list of things that "great political speech does not mean"...lol. A little neuro-linguistic programming goes a looooong way on TV Mr. Yang)
@AndrewYang (If someone mentions you polling low) "You're right and that is because Americans are still getting to know me. My message is coming fast and its resonating. In a short period of time, you will be able to go back to being (Mayor, Senator, or retire, depending who's attacking u)"
@AndrewYang "Joe, some decisions you've made have had profound effects on different groups in this country. You signed off on a crime bill that put millions of black men in prison and you voted for the Iraq war that claimed many American lives. Will Americans ever FULLY trust you again?"
@AndrewYang "My administration will be thorough in decision making unlike much of your last 50 years. I just don't think Americans can fully trust you again Joe." (paint this picture for American's watching. Let CNN run wild with this). Why? Because it's true.
@AndrewYang "Joe, thank you for serving as VP but let's be honest here, the only reason why you have some black support right now is because u were Obama's VP. Let's just bring the truth to light. Where is Eric Swalwell when u need him? I think its time to PASS THE TORCH." (get those laughs)
@AndrewYang "Where is the Department of Technology when you need it? It was shut down in 1995. I guess they thought we were done building stuff? Imagine how silly the rest of the world thinks we are if our leaders didn't even know that facebook makes money by running ads?" This is 2020!
