Instead of a scalpel, Musk is literally bringing a chainsaw to the federal government and cutting things that nobody voted to cut. Nobody went to the polls and voted to stop research in Alzheimer's or cancer. Nobody wanted to cut the park service employees that clean the bathrooms or air traffic controllers or veterans who are trying to help other veterans in crisis. No one voted for that.

And Democrats must make sure that people understand that that's what they're getting in the second Trump term. So setting the contrast is vital. And then talking about the issues that people care about in ways that they can really relate two, I think is also very important, which is, again, why I thought Senator Slotkin's response was quite good.

We're never going to be unified the way Republicans are. I mean, they've kind of become cultish. They just leapt to their feet and cheered no matter what Trump said last night, including when he was making absurd and insulting comments about one of their colleagues.
