They act like it.
But here's the question for Democrats.
Can we go out to the public and make the case that says, including to reluctant Trump voters of 2024, hey, listen, we know you don't agree with us on everything.
But do you want this guy's worst impulses to be checked by Congress?
Like, do you just want him to have to have a little bit of oversight and accountability for these next two years?
Because if you do vote Democrat for House and Senate, and we will put a check on his worst ideas, I think that that can win over some of these reluctant Trump voters who swung to him in 24.
Yes, but we have to connect the dots because the American people over the last decade have been trained and have acclimatized to his post-truth politics.
And so what you have to do is be able to connect the dots between his chaos and corruption and the higher costs of daily life.
And that is what campaigns are built around.
I think we also have to connect the dots between the chaos and incompetence of his administration and the lawlessness that people are feeling pervade ever more parts of the economy and society.
Even though Americans actually still
broadly agree with president trump instead of democrats on immigration for example they don't like the way he's going about it they don't want to see unmarked vans with mass officers harass 25 year old graduate students on the streets of somerville and that disconnect between a policy that he promised people and the images that they are seeing that feel viscerally wrong to them
That can register.
We saw it with the No King's Day protests, which were some of the most successful demonstrations in modern American history.
But now it's on Democrats to build that public pressure into a winning midterm strategy.
The corruption, conspiracy and quackery is eye watering.
RFK has spent the last two decades peddling in pseudoscience and conspiracy theories, one to enrich himself and two to sow distrust that has directly led to children dying of preventable infectious diseases.
And.
What we have to do is take out the knees of their self-righteousness.
The Maha movement has come to Washington, D.C., and it has claimed this mantle of an anti-corruption crusade.
