00:00Lydia, do you see this as a kind of invitation for the DSA to rise further or become more bold?
00:06I think they'll absolutely take it as such.
00:10I mean, as of this recording, we don't know what's going to happen in Michigan, and that's a big question
00:14mark.
00:15But I disagree. I think Tallarico was somebody who was extremely radical, if you hear some of the statements he
00:22made just a few years ago, you know, obviously about God being non-binary.
00:26I was trying to talk to the center. Right, right. But I think they're going to point to that and
00:31say, okay, it doesn't matter what I've done before.
00:34If I distance myself, right, even the way that we're seeing AOC say on these morning shows now that woke
00:41one was crazy, that's not what I'm doing anymore.
00:43I think they feel like this is creating sort of a permission structure for them to have done anything, and
00:48as long as they're pivoting, as long as they're messaging a little bit differently, thinking that they can get away
00:54with it.
