Pack the Court. If we are serious about the defense of these rights, we pack the Court. Simple as that. They pack it back, we pack it again. We do it until we reach consensus on long-term reforms to the judiciary. I don't know what it's going to take for people to get it.

Maybe part of the party’s problem connecting with young men is that it’s run by very old men. Not sure a podcast is going to solve that

A friend of mine a few months ago told me that Republicans don't know how to govern and be in the majority while Democrats don't know how to be in the minority and it's honestly one of the best explanations I've heard for so many things.
