I think there’s an apparatus that it’s built around this lie. It’s built around propagating this lie.

I think it`s things like that working on gas prices, trying to keep them low, cost of living kitchen table issues, doing not just telling, I think is what is going to get this White House back on track seven months before an election.

I think Democrats and Republicans will get an agreement on this. It`s not in anybody`s interest to fight out the government shutdown at this point.

I think addressing this issue and taking it head on, discussing it, making sure people understand where you are, you know, in 2020, a lot of congressional candidates on the Democratic side got tagged with defund the police and Joe Biden…

I think the idea that Trump is going to emerge, unscathed is certainly unlikely.

I think Democrats have to show the country were capable and willing and able to govern.

Look, I think Democrats had an awful night. And I think there’s no real sugarcoating that on a lot of different levels.

Why did we depend on Donald Trump to be the one and only boogeyman, the only thing we had to run a campaign against?

I think, to Murphy`s point around the grip that Trump has on the Republican Party, I think we saw this weekend, that grip continues to get tighter and tighter.

This is not just a reckoning with the history of what happened in 2020. It`s a preview of what is coming our way very quickly.

I think it is really incumbent upon the party to come together. I think the only person that can bring the party fully together at the table to make the decisions that Speaker Pelosi talked about tonight is President Biden.
