They should run on what they stand for.
 
They should just be honest. If it were me I'd run opposing him and saying we can do better, but I'd also probably get my ass kicked in the primary's by running like that.
 
Every political candidate should be running on their beliefs. I hate that so many politicians run based on what they think people will vote for. We see it in every primary and even more so during the 2016 election. How many Republicans distanced themselves from Trump and condemned his idiocy only praise him when it looked like that is what voters wanted to hear? A bunch of sell outs run a once great party.

The Republocrat Oligarchy is for Republocrat power. I don't think either side of the One Party has had any "belief" or actual political philosophy for some time.
 
Just run on who you are and what you believe in and support or oppose. Be honest.

Everyone believes in something. I believe that a lot of politicians on both sides sell out their beliefs frequently to cater to people to try stay in power a little longer and to take in more bribe, uh I mean lobby money.

They should run on their positions...whatever those may be...and, if elected, they should stick to their positions.

They can't run against Trump, as he won't be running in the midterms. If they are running against some policy Trump has espoused, they just need to wait until the next tweet that turns Trump in a different direction.

Or, maybe running against Trump really means taking a stand against fraud and prevarication. If that's so, then every candidate should run against Trump.
 
The cowardly GOP Congress has not qualitatively opposed Trump in anything so far.

They deserve to get hacked off at the knees.
