Ellison (D-Minn.) is considered a top contender to be the next DNC chairman, along with former Secretary of Labor Tom Perez. South Bend, Indiana, Mayor Pete Buttigieg, is also a candidate for the job and on Wednesday morning was endorsed by former Vermont Gov. Howard Dean.
One thing I will say about Rep. Keith Ellison, in his fight to lead the DNC, is that he was the one who predicted early that I would win! Trump wrote on Twitter Wednesday morning.
Appearing on ABCs This Week in July of 2015, Ellison prophetically warned Democrats to take Trump seriously at a time when very few did.
Anybody from the Democratic side of the fence whos terrified of the possibility of President Trump better vote, better get active, better get involved, because this man has got some momentum and we better be ready for the fact that he might be leading the Republican ticket, Ellison said, prompting laughter from the This Week panel.
