Andrew Yang crowd-surfed at a 2020 town hall
Andrew Yang is doing what Beto O'Rourke could only dream of.
The 2020 Democrat and entrepreneur was spotted performing what might be a presidential campaign first on Saturday: crowd surfing across a wave of supporters at the AAPI Democratic Presidential Forum in California. And if the sight of Yang's ride wasn't triumphant enough, the fact that two other presidential candidates were at the forum makes it even sweeter.
Yang joined Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-Hawaii) and billionaire Tom Steyer at the event, which is put on by an Asian American and Pacific Islander-focused super PAC. Yang is currently beating those two contenders in polls and number of legs off the ground, and is polling around the same 3 percent as fellow ex-punk O'Rourke.
