You know, one thing I love is people named Michael, and it's why I'm very pleased to bring on right now our pal Michael LaRosa so we can all beat up some Democrats.

Michael, thank you for being here.

So we've been mostly focusing on the right so far because obviously we've got this Iran deal and we've got J.D.

's new book and all this kind of the ruling party right now.

We should remember there are still Democrats.

And to Drew's point, they are still trying to come back and they'll probably do very well in the midterms, just historically speaking.

So what's the state of play right now?

Are the Dems just the party of Graham Platner now?

Nazi tattoos and...

abusing women?

Or is Rahm Emanuel going to reforge the Dems into a major governing party?

I hate to say it, I'm pretty impressed by Rahm Emanuel.

He may be a terrible president, but I'm pretty impressed by him.

What do you think?

Michael, before I let you go, just one last question.

To what degree does woke still matter and is it an albatross for the libs?

We're years past peak woke and the Dems are trying to run away from it, it seems.

But we are constantly hanging these clips calling God non-binary or referring to women as our neighbors with uteruses all around James Tallarico and it's hard for him to run away from it.

Ben did a great job when he went on Gavin Newsom's show of just constantly pinning Newsom back on the trans issue.

There was like a Newsom-shaped hole in the wall.
