Give it all you’ve got, Matt!
I am a pretty normal down the middle Connecticut liberal who grew up listening to NPR every day and for what it’s worth hearings like this have convinced me I can’t vote for Democrats anymore. (I don’t like the Republicans either. I’m homeless I guess)
For a political party whose new specialty is losing elections, smirking petty tyrant authoritarian bullshit is an interesting strategy from a coalition building perspective. I don’t really understand who these little tantrums are for. They’re losing voters like me, anyway.
