But you didn't really see much of that during the campaign because everything that Kamala Harris has always done as vice president, and I think even before senators, what she always, except in that one area that she really knows well, which is criminal law because of her being a prosecutor, Every time she speaks, she feels like she's extremely afraid of saying the wrong thing.

And they infuse that into Tim Walz. And there's a lot of Democratic Party leaders who have that sort of hesitation when they speak. And even the ones who are now trying to say, like, let's fight, let's fight is an easy thing to say. That's still, again, saying we're not Trump. We have to resist what Trump is doing. But what would you be doing? You know, what do you want to see different?

And they still seem just very petrified to say out of fear of offending voters and donors and consultants in the media. And that ultimately is the thing that not political junkies, but just like ordinary citizens who pay some attention to politics, but not constantly. That's the thing they feel more than anything.

Oh, God, it's so cringy. I mean, the contrast between these two things is really interesting, right? Because Gavin Newsom is actually angering the liberal base because while you are looking at this from the perspective of people like Charlie Kirk or Steve Bannon, I guess you had Michael Savage, someone else coming on shortly in that vein, that they're helping Gavin Newsom.

From the liberal perspective, Gavin Newsom is not inviting them on to fight with them or to be confrontational with them, but kind of placate them, almost be friendly with them in a way that, as you said, is designed to show that he's like a more reasonable guy. And they're infuriated by this.

I don't think Gavin Newsom – he may be helping himself in terms of general election prospects, but in terms of the primary where you need like the real hardcore militants – He's alienating a lot of people who just a couple months ago were very open to supporting him.

But I guess, you know, his strategy is I have to convince Democrats that not just that I'm the candidate they want, but that I'm the candidate that can win. Whereas, as you say, Chris Murphy has been told like, oh, the great approach is to go online and sound like, you know, a hardcore social media fanatic. And, you know, Megan, you see this so much.
