You do exactly the same thing Trump did, run as an outsider with the exception that you run for both the President and VP during the bid for the nomination.
You run an older but very likable candidate for president and you run another well known but younger person as VP.
Here is a winning ticket.
Tom Selleck for President ( who doesn't like Tom Selleck)
Mark Cuban for VP ( Has more money than Trump but he got his the hard way, he earned it.)
Plus it's another Regan in the White house. different spelling but you get it.
If Trump could pull this off certainly a couple of likeable guys could too.

Mark Cuban did it the hard way? Last I checked, he just happened to be around at the exact right time during the dot com era. Which is pretty much the story for many rich liberals, like Mark Zuckerberg. He's like "why, I must be a genius!" Yeah, I mean, he made a few hundred billion dollars with a website that connects you with people you used to know but don't want to know any more. That's genius.

You clearly have no idea what Trump did, and what it took to do it.
Trump won FIRST because he ran against the republican establishment and the republican voters were ready to oust the insiders. (By the way this is what Ronnie Ray-Guns did)
Then Trump beat Hillary because Trump captured the "Populist" middle ground.
This is what both Clinton and Reagan did. It is also part of what Obama did in his first run. But once in office, he backed away from populism. In surrendering that populist "I am for the working people" message, he allowed someone other than the democrat candidate to take that message.
Hillary never tried to take that ground and ran as a progressive. the democrats doubled down on that progressive message in reelecting Nancy Pelosi as minority leader.
So for the dems to regain the high ground, they are going to have to do what it takes. abandon the far left, and go back to a populist message. If Donald Trump doesn't surrender the position, the dems are going to have a hard time taking that back.

I know, right!
Tom Selleck and Mark Cuban? So, a Hollywood insider and a Billionaire who flipped from Trump to Clinton and then lost, showing that he chose poorly.
The Dem's would have won had they not cheated and colluded for their queen. Sanders would have most likely beaten Trump. Biden would have crushed Trump had the DNC been a little more concerned with actually winning rather than believing they could not lose.
If the left ever hopes to win again they will need to stop playing these identity politics and dividing people.
It might do them some good to become a little more concerned with national sovereignty and security, and realizing most citizens do want them to actually defend the Constitution rather than destroy it.

Trump is holding onto his message tightly. His Thank You tour with 10s of thousands showing up showed he intends to remain the populist.
Bold: They went too far left, believing they had succeeded in tipping the scales, and got it entirely wrong.
Fortunately for we moderates, young progressives were more invested in bashing Trump supporters from their computers than actually going out to vote for their Queen. The problem with a true socialist/Marxist state is that motivation is sucked out of the general populous.
Easy way is for dems to stop acting as if we are a bunch of fools glued to the tv & will get easily brainwashed into believing whatever junk your journalists & celebrities tell us to believe. Some of us are free thinkers & we can think, compare our lives to dems vs gop govt. My healthcare premiums, grocery bills & overall cost of living are enough to convince me that the govt has to change. Your tricks, gimmicks & distraction tactics wont work on a hungry crowd.
Reject globalism !!!!!!!
Reject the idea that we need some bureaucrat, in some far off location or another country, to decide how we can best live our lives.
Trump hasnt rejected globalism. He has packed the swamp with more crocodiles than ever before. Goldman Sachs are laughing their heads off. The international bankers, globalists and crony capitalists that wrote all the terrible anti-worker trade deals have been given the best seats in Trump's administration.
