Jasmine Wright:
I mean, every Democratic voter I have talked to for the last three months would tell you no, quite frankly.
A lot of times, they call them feckless. A lot of times, they say that they’re not meeting this moment, which to them requires a really strong Democratic Party pushing back against what Donald Trump is doing. Now, I think that the reality is that there’s not a lot basically that Democrats can do because they are not in the majority on both chambers, but still voters want them to feel like they are doing something.
I think what I noticed in that video one is that all of those people were very young. I mean, I’m young, but they were young too, right? And I think it’s a reflection of this conversation that’s going on in Washington and beyond about the age of some of these Democratic leaders, particularly the ones that have been passing away in office.
But also it’s trying to harness this energy that’s saying that these Democrats in office are not doing enough for you. I will do something for you. But the reality is, is that the waiting — the game right now for Democrats is about waiting to see what happens with Donald Trump.
And even though that young politician said that that was immoral…
