Mallory McMorrow, a Democratic candidate for the U.S. Senate in Michigan, discusses her campaign and key issues in a conversation about national and state politics.
She emphasizes the need for accountability in the Epstein case, criticizing Donald Trump's efforts to shield Republicans and highlighting bipartisan support for transparency. McMorrow notes a shift in voter sentiment, particularly among former Trump supporters, who are disillusioned by corruption, economic hardship, and broken promises.
She contrasts her record of legislative achievements in Michigansuch as expanding childcare, education, and healthcare accesswith her opponent Mike Rogers, whom she criticizes for being out of touch and relying on base voter loyalty. McMorrow stresses her commitment to listening to voters, delivering results, and building a campaign that resonates across party lines.
She also critiques the Trump administrations policies, including tariffs, spending on luxury projects, and cuts to social programs, which she argues have harmed working-class Americans. Her campaign has gained momentum, with a significant rise in polls since entering the race.

(9,271 posts)It was Brian Tyler Cohen or someone on his staff - but it's one of my pet peeves.
"Decimate" means to destroy one out of every 10 objects in a group. A person is not a group and therefore cannot be decimated.
(It also does not mean to obliterate. Destroying one out of ten in a group of people may be cruel, but it is not the same as destroying most or all of a group)
As I said, not your fault. Thank you for all your posts, especially formerly Beau, now Belle.

(125,296 posts)I will at times get so engaged in the editing process prior to posting a thread that I overlook the meaning of words such as what you pointed out. BTC is abusive with clickbait titles which is sad considering that he was an English major in college. However, he does reach a large audience so he must be doing something right.

(2,740 posts)young woman is spot on in pointing out how OUT OF TOUCH Trump is with the vast majority of voters outside of his rabid base.
I hope she goes FAR in her political career because she is intelligent, laser focused on the REAL issues and great in highlighting just how pathetically Trump is misinterpreting the vast number of voters whose concerns he totally ignores.... or simply doesn't care about.
