"Anytime we're talking about Donald Trump, Donald Trump is winning," Yang explained. "And Democrats need an affirmative vision that people are just as excited about. Like if the Democratic message is 'Donald Trump bad! Impeach Donald Trump!' then we're actually increasing the chances of him getting a second term."
