Cuomo, boasting universal name recognition and the sense, if not the reality, of incumbency from his 11 years as governor, is now what Barkan calls the "institutional" candidate.

"What Donald Trump is launching is an assault on incumbency, those who are in power, by mobilising a supremacism against the incumbency, at home… and abroad," Rasool said at the event.

Years into his incumbency, Trump’s approach to the COVID-19 pandemic was more of a shrug than a response and innumerable people suffered and died because his action was so leisurely.

Sadhwani said she expects Steel to have the classic incumbency advantage, particularly given the Vietnamese community’s record of supporting the Republican Party.
