Dem longshot John Delaney wants to take on the ‘bully’ in the White House by TheStephSy
Former Rep. John Delaney smiles a lot, considering that he was the first Democrat to enter the race for president and that after campaigning for 20 months he is barely a blip in the polls.
But he has something else going for him in the race besides his policy expertise. Delaney appears to be positioning himself to run as the Democrat who best embodies the rank-and-file’s rage at Donald Trump. Delaney describes his rise from blue collar roots to millionaire status as the classic American dream. Neither of his parents went to college, and it was a scholarship from his father’s labor union that helped fund Delaney’s attendance at Columbia University. After earning a law degree from Georgetown and briefly practicing law, he went into the world of finance and founded two companies -- the first, a lender to health care companies, and the second a lender to small and medium-size businesses.
Delaney may not be the loudest person in the room, but he says he wouldn’t hesitate to punch back if he’s given the opportunity to run against Trump.
