It’s always fireworks whenever Mike Nellis of Endless Urgency joins The Left Hook. Although he’s more ideologically aligned with progressive values, Nellis also consults the Democratic Party and, as such, has a window into the mindset of the Democratic Establishment.
You can witness in real time how he tries to balance the competing ideologies and strategies of what is the messy, fractured Democratic base.
This is especially helpful today as the NYT/Sienna Poll came out and revealed a large +8 lead for Democrats heading to the midterms. However, there are some warning signs, especially when it comes to Americans trusting Republicans more on AI regulation and the fact that Democrats are only +7 on the economy when they should be double digits.
Who is getting high marks?
That would be Zohran Mamdani, with a +5 national rating. It seems people want progressive economic policies and a fighter who rejects corporate money and AIPAC influence. Unfortunately, Democratic leadership is more comfortable promoting “centrists” who stab them in the back and taking private meetings with Jared Kushner.
We get into all of it. Who do you think got it right?
Give us a watch!
