335: Finally, Dems In Array with Jim Gerstein

After a big win, James and Al explain why the Democrats outperformed in the off-season elections, focusing on the declining affordability of life under Trump, his anti-democratic actions, and the desire for change in the electorate. Then, they look at the implications for the upcoming national elections, the growing headwinds to MAGA and Republican rule, and the potential to increase the share of the Hispanic vote. They also examine the impact of statewide court decisions, the effects of redistricting following California’s Proposition 50, and the state of international relations, with a focus on Israel.
