Democrat Strategist Yemisi Egbewole TORCHES Graham Platner: “We have lost the plot on authenticity. To think Graham Platner is cosplaying working class. He wears it like a Halloween costume, and that has been placed on him by the same people who have run a lot of progressive candidates across the nation. In this pursuit of getting to know the everyman, we keep picking these people who I think show the worst parts of society. If I am to believe that Graham Platner can relate to everyday Americans, then that means I am to believe that everyday Americans are okay with Nazi tattoos because they get them accidentally when they're drunk, or because they served in the military, they have very regressive views on race and on gender. I just cannot accept the fact that to gain the working class, we have to dress up people who show the lowest of our values.”

Sanders: What we have here, and it’s a real issue, is that if you’re progressive, you can go out there and give a great speech, fine. You’re saying all the right things. You’re right on the issues. Great. Can you run a government? Can you be a good mayor? Can you be a good governor? All right. And what Mamdani is doing is showing that you can have a democratic socialist, progressive ideology and run a city. You know what? New York City had really serious snowstorms. It meant that people couldn’t get to work, kids couldn’t get to school, ambulances couldn’t get people to the hospital. You know what he did? He got the bloody snow off the ground and did a great job on that. People in New York City desperately need childcare, as they do in Vermont, as they do all over the country. He is now instituting free childcare for the people of New York City. That is really good. Working-class people need to buy affordable, decent-quality food for their kids. He’s starting to put grocery stores—municipally funded grocery stores—in low-income and working-class areas. That’s good. So the point is, we have got to have progressives who are not only right on the issues—and I speak as somebody who was a mayor for eight years—you’ve got to know how to run a government. You’ve got to cut through the bureaucracy. You’ve got to stand up for working-class people. You’ve got to create the best educational system in the world that we can. You’ve got to make the system work efficiently.

McGovern: May I inquire how many more speakers the gentlelady has? We have several. Fischbach: Great AOC: It is great that Democrats have a line of people willing to fight for working class Americans because god forbid we have a member of the Republican caucus who stands up and wants to extend the affordable care act so that people with cancer, insulin, and issues across the -- all sorts of health care issues across this country have their health insurance protected.

Sanders: The reality is that in America today, our life expectancy is about four years less than in other wealthy countries. But even worse is the fact that if you’re working class in America, on average, you live seven to eight years shorter than people who are wealthy. Now, why is that? The answer is not just healthcare—though that is important. Working-class and low-income people do not have the same access to healthcare as the rich. But it is the stress, the day-to-day stress that working-class people live under.

PabloReports: Ted Cruz called you a parasite and disparaged your work as a bartender. AOC: It’s not a secret the disdain Ted Cruz has for people who work working-class jobs. It’s not a secret what he thinks of the waitresses, the line cooks—he thinks we’re less than him. He thinks that because he has a Harvard degree and has never scrubbed a table that it makes him better than someone who has actually had to work for a living. I think it’s funny that he’s been taking a government paycheck for 23 years but has the audacity to criticize someone who has come from a family that had to work their way up and earn their place here.

Fox is running the comments from Auchincloss on a number of their shows. In this instance, they bring on a former Biden Admin Advisor to say: Egbewole: I don't think there's anybody in the Democratic Party who should feel pressure to support Graham Platner. I certainly don't and just because Senator Elizabeth Warren says that is her kind of man does not mean that has to apply to everybody. My kind of senators are the ones who come from Georgia. They have different principles and values than Platner. I think that Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren will have to carry that themselves.

Sanders: It is opposition to a president who is a narcissist and who, if he had his way, half of the buildings in America would be named after him. It’s about a president who is a pathological liar, who doesn’t know the difference between truth and lies. It’s about a kleptocrat who has increased his wealth—and the wealth of his family—by billions of dollars since he has been president. It is about a president who gave $1 trillion in tax breaks to the top 1% and then threw 15 million low-income and working-class Americans off the healthcare they desperately need.

John Fetterman ran as a progressive but has been anything but. His behavior is completely unacceptable and a betrayal of the people who voted for him.

Ukatiba caravan!

Phillip: Maybe Democrats have a flawed candidate…. Rogin: Why is James Talarico flawed? I don't really think he's flawed. He's not even vegan. If that was a flaw. Being vegan is not. They’re accusing him of that because they don’t have any dirt on him. Egbewole: My grandma would say he’s a little progressive on his ideology.

Kellyanne: How do you get your party to shed some of these crazy ideas—these anti-Israel/anti-American candidates? Schoen: I think the best way is for the democratic executive committee as a procedure, assuming that Platner steps down by July 13th in those two weeks, to have a debate across the state of Maine, with robust candidates, and hopefully pick somebody as you mentioned like Mills or Golden or Shah.

Oz: A five fold increase in the incidence of autism in a quarter century is not from your genes. They don't change that fast Tapper: Part of the reason there has been increased diagnosis is because medical understanding of autism has increased. Oz: Without question. But, look at someone my age, our age, Secretary Kennedy's age. We don't have a lot of people in our lives who our age who are on the autism spectrum. Tapper: Well, we maybe don't have as many people who were diagnosed on the autism spectrum

Graham Platner: “The reason we are in the straits that we are is because we have been robbed. We have been robbed for almost 40 years by a politics and an economic system it supports that has sucked money out of working people in this country and put it into the pockets of billionaires and corporations.”

Flaherty on 2028: Many people are like, “Who’s the moderate who can appeal to progressives?” I actually think there’s this question of who is the progressive that can appeal to moderates. AOC’s got good vibes. I think if you were to poll the operative class on who is going to be the campaign that most people want to work for right now, it’s probably going to be AOC. People like her. Now, she has real challenges in a general election, but I would say AOC has a pretty wide lens of acceptability for a lot of voters in the Democratic Party than perhaps people would believe.
