And I think that that means returning back to basics in some ways.

Agreed, 100%.

Agreed, 100%.

How do you think about both of those strategies? Sure. So I think this is a moment that calls us to fight hard and fight smart. Yeah. I don't think we should retreat from issues, particularly issues of basic principle. I mean, I think what we're seeing right now with the elimination of due process as people are sent off to a foreign gulag as a matter of basic principle, it's a red line.

And even beyond that, we shouldn't shy away from fights. We should just fight them in a way that meets people where they are. So let's talk about what's happening on immigration, and let's make it not just about the folks who are being sent off, but let's also make it about voters.

Because if they can do this to any number of folks who are here legally or who are undocumented, if there is no process, that means they can do it to you, they can do it to me, and none of us are safe. That might not have been an acceptable sort of path just a couple of years ago in terms of messaging, right?

Similarly, we can say in the same breath that we don't have to choose between securing our border and protecting due process and that we are a party that wants to secure our borders. A couple of years ago, we couldn't say that. I think that's a lesson learned that we can fight, but we can fight smart. I also think, and this is something that I've been thinking a lot about, because I do think

There's a lot of conversation about how Donald Trump breaks the rules and Democrats play by the rules. And I think that there's truth to that, right? I think clearly Donald Trump breaks rules that he's held to and we hold ourselves back. And I also think the reality is that there are two different standards for the parties.

And I've been thinking about how do you fight back against Trump in a smart way, sort of in a writ large, because we are so susceptible to sort of this Trump derangement syndrome dynamic. We've been screaming about democracy and rights and the rule of law for so long. And clearly this country voted for someone who incited an insurrection.

And I've been thinking about how do we fight smart in a macro way? And how do we recognize that there are two different standards for the parties? And those two different standards make a lot more sense when you recognize that they are just the replication of sexism and misogyny. The Democratic Party is the woman of politics and the Republican Party is the man of politics.

It's why Donald Trump can scream and yell and people see him as strong and why when we scream and yell, we're seen as hysterical and shrill. It's why Donald Trump can hate and insult more than half of this country.
