And now Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson. The good news is the cream is rising to the top. The bad news is the cream is very thin. Most Democrats are in hiding waiting to see where the winds blow when they emerge in 2026 or 2028. The problem is there may not be a 2026 or 2028 because of the cowardice!
I agree. Wes Moore has risen to the challenge, too. They should jettison political consultants who say - let them impl their agenda & we’ll win in ‘26. There’s no guarantee there will be a free & fair (or any) election in ‘26. They’re playing by old rules in an environment that no longer exists.
Pollsters are backward looking. Remember how bad the polling was on immigration? Then Van Hollen took the initiative and Trump's numbers have never recovered on immigration. Leadership matters. You can never imagine Schumer or Jeffries doing what Van Hollen did.
Agreed. I acknowledge they are smart men , but, their instincts and the strategic advice they’re getting is all wrong for this moment. After 7 mos that must be clear to them at this point. Again, I think the resistance shd have started in Nov because this was all spelled out in p2025..clearly.
Yep that makes it worse because they had the playbook in front of them. Newsom and Pritzker don't emerge as these stars in the summer if Schumer and Jeffries had been leading the charge since January.
