Williamson Returns, Makes Case For "Happy Warrior" Yang

Andrew Yang

Marianne Williamson is back.

The presidential campaign trail had only to wait a short few weeks before the former candidate graced early state voters again with her presence again. Williamson had withdrawn from the race on Jan. 10, but she returned to Iowa on Friday to boost her friend Andrew Yang.

Williamson and Yang appeared before a packed auditorium in Fairfield, in the midst of the seventh day of Yang’s 17-day bus tour around the state.

“Andrew’s is an important voice of the happy warrior,” Williamson told the crowd of about 240 people. “He’s an important voice of progressivism that lays it down, but lays it down with joy … He has three personality characteristics that I believe are important: his self-confidence, his positivity and his levity.”


I've seen Yang on the stump, met with him personally twice and seen him at two debates. I don't see "happy warrior" as an applicable term. I do see it applying to Warren.
If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
