I think his victory has destroyed the conventional wisdom that you need to be a Senator and/or Governor to run. Whether it should have or not, I don't know. There's also a lot of talk of Garcetti running - and while he's a mayor, he's mayor of a city with more people than around 20 states, and that's just the City of Los Angeles. The metro area would be the 5th largest state. So why wouldn't that be as good a qualification as Governor or Senator of Wyoming?

Not endorsing Garcetti specifically, just pointing out that I think the "conventional wisdom" has been blown up by Trump's election.

No, no, why bring that up? I like that Trump apologists are unironically using someone’s political experience and personal background as a knock against them.
