Always expected good things from Cory Booker. Great to see him step up. Booker's got it, whatever you want to call it (some call it rizz these days, I think).

Bernie & AOC have also been great. As has Jasmine Crockett. Chris Murphy also stepped up his game. Natural leaders are emerging in the Democratic Party.

In an interesting thread on X, Chris Murphy lays out how the tariffs are all about power. Trump can leverage them to gain concessions from CEOs. Makes sense--because tariffs make no sense economically. Murphy continues to be impressive.

Dem leaders really need to step up now. James Carville's advice to 'roll over & play dead' is political malpractice--and an example of the old guard being out of touch. Bernie, AOC & others are showing the way.

@WilliamRobert It’s a Mafia-style extortion racket, perfectly in keeping with the vile character of the man.

@dnelson Yeah, It's clear when you see it through the right lens. Always power & money.

@WilliamRobert

James Carville stinks like he is thirty years past his best by date

@paezha Yeah, Carville seems to be losing the plot. The guy doesn't seem to know when to sit down.
