Summary
James and Al celebrate Susan Crawford’s election to the WI Supreme Court, expose Trump’s declining electoral prospects, and declare the start of a Democrat comeback. Then, they welcome MI senate candidate Mallory McMorrow to discuss voters' desperation to reconnect with the American dream, lay out the issues that will win in 2026 and beyond, and emphasize the importance of women in the party’s coalition. Ultimately, what does a future-focused party look like, who should lead it, and can the democrats balance attacks on Trump with a vision for our lives after he exits the political scene?
