The Bulwark Podcast
Wright Thompson: The Ghosts of Mississippi

It was just yesterday, two days ago, talking about how wrong I was about Havana syndrome.

Happy to admit when I'm wrong.

The one thing I've been on since day one of this administration is that these immigration tactics are not popular and we should fight on that turf.

Wright Thompson: The Ghosts of Mississippi

And a lot of Democrats have been hesitant to do so.

And increasingly, we're seeing more and more who aren't.

I was at a function with some elected Democrats and then candidates last night, and I was pretty encouraged on this point.

I was chewing people's ear off on it, as you might imagine.

And so increasingly, I think they are coming out of their shell on this.

But I just think that if the White House is admitting and basically how these stories come to pass is that there's somebody in the White House that sees the polls, sees it's a disaster and is leaking about it.

The Bulwark Podcast

So the people talk about it.

So hopefully Trump backs off.

That's why this story is out.

The Bulwark Podcast
Wright Thompson: The Ghosts of Mississippi

Like it's not, you know, it's not like.

The polls got left on the printer or something at the White House and Marco Puto found out like somebody in the White House is unhappy and is trying to get them to back off.

And so the fact that that is happening from inside the House, so to speak, is telling and the Democrats shouldn't let up on it.
