Andrew Yang: I can beat Joe Biden in 2020

In an interview you'll see only on “CBS This Morning,” democratic presidential candidate Andrew Yang said he is confident that he can defeat front-runner Joe Biden. Currently, the businessman is polling at about 2-4% nationwide. In an interview with “CBS This Morning” co-host Anthony Mason, Yang explained why he believes he has what it will take to beat his fellow Democrats, and eventually, President Trump.

Conservatives unsure about Yang should check out Ben Shapiro's full-length interview with him where Yang is challenged on a variety of topics, showing his ability to face tough criticism and to explain his platform in depth. Beyond that, he's also on Dave Rubin, Joe Rogan, H3, and they all gave him time to touch on some of the common questions people have been asking in this comment section about his plans.

He IS the only Democrat that would make Republicans consider to vote for him. He is the only Dem that isn't crazy out there and he makes a lot of sense, not extremist. It'd be a bonus to have an Asian-American president imo too, new blood, fresh face, and not the same type the establishment always pushes forward.

It's not left. It's not right. It's forward.

Dear Dems and Reps: Do yourself a favor and go on a Yang interview watching binge. Yang is the ONLY candidate who is getting TRUMP VOTERS and other Reps on his side because he's the only one who actually *understands and is addressing the real problem that neither side wants to because they don't have the answers to solve it (that being massive job-losses).* He's the only one with the insight into the tech community who KNOWS that the mass job losses over the years are due to TECH AND AUTOMATION, NOT IMMIGRANTS! The other candidates, or the government, don't want to talk about this because they know they can't stop this new technological revolution and they don't know how to solve the aftermath (potentially the next Great Depression). But this guy actually has bi-partisan solutions!

at some point we have to admit Andrew yang is the smartest of them all. imagine a debate between Andrew yang and Trump, when Andrew gave all the numbers, facts, and science to Trump.

Joe needs to go👎, there are to many other younger forward thinking candidates.

[misternightstar]

Yang is right that we need to be looking forward instead of backward for ideas.
Smartest dude in the race, by far.

Andrew is going into beast mode. #Yang2020

[drezworthy]

I'm all in for Yang, I like him even more than I did Sanders, and that's a LOT!

[tylerhaknuman]

After the next debate he will be a household name. #yang2020

Here's what Andrew Yang understands and what he has built his candidacy around - Whether you like/dislike, love/hate, agree or disagree with a person has NO bearing on whether or not their pain is real. Yang is addressing the REAL problems that Americans are facing, whether they are Trump voters, conservatives, independents, Democrats or progressives. He doesn't look at whether he likes them as individuals or not, if they are hurting he is willing to help and has solutions.

[GLOBALALLIANCE]

I JUST DONATED TO YANG. IT'S NOT LEFT OR RIGHT, IT'S FORWARD. LET'S PUT THIS MAN IN THE WHITE HOUSE.

Love Andrew Yang, I am a software engineer and know he's not joking around, a real deal!

[SCANLZ]

Andre Yang is the best option look him up he is all about finding a solution to many American Problems. He has over 100 policies which makes sense. #Math #YangGang #Yang2020

[codypolar]

Yang is an amazing guy! Every time I hear him, I like him more as the next POTUS! Yang2020

[pretendgallery]

Many Obama voters voted for Trump. If Biden is the nominee, we loose. With Yang, we win. #yanggang

[ocha-time]

Easily the most interesting Democratic candidate in that he's thinking about the future and is creating policy to try to get ahead of it. I think there are only two Democratic candidates I'm even paying attention to right now, the rest aren't doing anything for me.

[johncrab]

I'm only voting for Andrew Yang in 2020. #Yang2020

[siddheshpatwardhan]

This guy makes sense.. Actually much more than the other Dem candidates!

[TheJerryShow]

Give him more air time!!! #YangMediaBlackout
