Hey everybody it's Joe Trippy and welcome back to that Trippy show.

This week after four years of Infrastructure Week

being promised every week,

finally, it really is.

It's Infrastructure Week.

Yeah, great. But week, yeah, great.

But seriously, good news for the Democrats as Biden finally got the infrastructure bill over

the line.

Lots to talk about this week as 2022 continues to take shape.

Alex, where do you want to start?

Well, I think we got to talk about the good news first.

You were optimistic, Joe, last week,

after Terry McAuliffe lost in Virginia, or at least more optimistic than I think most people were last week.

We did get emails, we talked about this, and one I'll get to later, most of them agreeing with you, which I was a little surprised with.

So we should all be more optimistic now, right, after the big infrastructure bill passed. We talked about it with

Ruth on the Tuesday show a little bit but Joe what does this really mean for

2022? Well I look there's it's I said people were overstating you know how bad New Jersey and in Virginia were.

I didn't think they were all that bad at all.

Again you know that we reelected the first Democrat to be reelected in 40 years in New Jersey.

That's breaking an historic precedent. The fact that Terry McAuliffe came so close

actually broke historic precedent,

it's usually a blowout for the party
