I do have a pet theory that the way that Democrats deal with what is becoming like a โ I'm not even sure it's as much of a wedge issue because Democratic voters now are pretty โ I mean I can't tell you how many focus groups I do with Dems.
Um, in these Dem primaries, they all know who AIPAC is giving money to.
It's not just sort of track AIPAC.
Like people are locked in on this issue.
They are mad at Israel.
It is shifting quickly among democratic and independent voters.
Um, and so I do think, I think that the, one of the ways that Democrats could handle this is by having a Jewish candidate who is deeply critical of Israel.
JB Pritzker fits that bill.
Ossoff fits that bill and Shapiro fits that bill.
I don't mean to erase Rahm.
I think Rahm's going to inject some interesting energy into the primary.
I do not think that's where voters are going.
Yeah, and I just think people are looking for a brand new โ like not brand, brand new, but like โ

But the thing is, I'll just say, Pete does make my heart go pitter-patter because Pete does the thing that I'm desperate for Democrats to do, which is it's not just going on podcasts.
And I saw you guys reacting to his thing, and I did not think you were nice enough to him.
Yeah.
Well, I think part of it is that Pete, part of the reason that we take it personally is Pete inspires love in people like they really do.
