Hey everybody it's Joe Trippi and welcome back to that

the trippy show this week. I'm gonna back up what I said last week with why Democrats should be optimistic this year.

Plus we get into the latest on President Biden's voting rights push,

is Georgia trip, and a lot more.

Hey Alex man what do you got going?

You are backing up something from a previous week?

Well it's hard it's difficult sometimes but yeah I'm gonna, I'm going to do it. I'm going to do it.

All right. Let's get right into it. So we got to start in Georgia. I think you know, you talked about it before actually how George is probably going to be the center of the political world this year.

Biden's trip to Georgia obviously, you know, brought it front and center.

Part of his renewed push on voting rights, he was really direct in his speech. He basically called out the Senate. He called out the Senate and quote the question is where will the institution of the United States Senate stand.

Every senator, Democrat, Republican, and independent

will have to declare where they stand not just for the moment,

but for the ages.

And then he went on to basically say,

are you going to stand against voter suppression?

Joe, what would you make of his visit?

No, look, I thought the speech itself was obviously very strong, very straightforward and took on exactly what needed to take on the

intransigence of the Senate and frankly not just the Senate. And frankly, not just the Republicans,

but two senators mentioned in cinema

in terms of trying to move them.

I think there was a big, it just sort of pisses me off about how people do not get

what he's trying to do here. This isn't like oh he's using us for props or any that stuff. This is look there's only one and it's something I've been talking about the pro-democracy coalition, building from the bottom up, people standing up and demanding.
