Republicans Desperately Spin Yemen Group Chat Fumble | Mayor Michelle Wu

So lots of ways to get involved. So sorry for hopping on about this, because obviously you're very popular in Boston. My thing right now is I'm wondering, whenever I can get a Democrat who's actually popular, which is very rare in this country. Every time I get to sit to someone who actually, it seems like both sides of both tribes seem to get behind such as yourself.

I kind of focus on the kind of the outreach to the other tribe more. So for example, if someone was to tell you, you know, like recently you got, I guess you got, you testified in Congress about sanctuary cities, you know, which is one issue in many things. And you defended yourself well. What do you say to the people in your constituency who might feel like, hey, why are we doing this?

What's the big deal with this sanctuary city thing? If people are illegally in the country, shouldn't we arrest them and get rid of them? What is the big deal?

So, I guess... I guess, I mean, look at these, I don't know, these people from Boston or something. I don't know what's happening here. These people came here from Boston. So what advice would you give to the Democrats running now about how to not be such losers? Or, like, connect to the people more.

It seems like there seems, I don't know, I truly don't understand what's happening, because every day on this show, we talk about some bullshit that happened, and then nothing seems to matter, and then I'm like, I guess nothing matters anymore. So there's clearly a disconnect between the Democratic Party, or maybe politics in general, if you're being generous, and the common people, right?

Okay, so... Um... Well... Look, I mean, I don't know. If you can become the mayor of Boston, maybe, you know, one of arguably the most racist cities in America, then maybe there's hope for everyone yet. I mean, I don't know.

I don't know. I got a lot of love for Boston. They were nice to me when I was there. But there is a stereotype of the city, which you are totally, I don't know. I still don't understand how you got elected. I mean, obviously you're good at your job and you're charming and all that, but that was enough for them to convince them?
