But I mean I think that that that is a real um challenge.

I think we have to understand it's a different type of job.

And for like an executive position, I can see some voters like, you know, um wanting um a more

mainstream more um uh uh uh figure w one with a bigger resume.

Yeah, no, no, I mean I I I think like any sort of uh uh politics, even the most radical politics, has to take into account like you know, what you can actually do.

And like in New York, I mean the DSA is just, you know, much more organized.

They have a real political machine.

Uh one wants to see that build up and one is seeing, you know, like strengthening of DSA all across the country.

But yeah, I'm not sure like in Wisconsin uh it was there and you

Like you know, one day this is not a um this is a pragmatic position, it's not necessarily uh like a conservative one.

Um uh Vladimir Lenin, you know, always said like you have to look at the correlation of forces.

And like I think, you know, like there's a realist um I I Wisconsin is you know, uh again I I I I think it's good to have a little bit of humility and like I don't want to claim expertise in Wisconsin politics, but I can see like where people might have realistic concerns, whether

you know, um uh uh she could have pulled it off.

And if she didn't pull it off, there's uh you know uh uh real dangers there as well.

So yeah, I I mean uh I I think that sort of pragmatism um has to be sort of part of politics.

And um you you want the m left most electable candidate is uh the way John Kenneth Galbraith said.

And th both parts of that are like important.

The left word part, uh

but also the electable part.

And sometimes it's a toss up, like, is this like, you know, this is certainly the most left word candidate, but is it the most selectible candidate?
