I've Actually Been, to My Surprise, Democrats, Even Joe Mansion, Seem to Get That

i don't think any o them ever thought they were going to pass somethinglike 80 votes and 20 republicans signing od. And i do feel like the sort of learning process of two thousand nine was, oh this isn't this does this world is not the world we thought we had. We are operating on a whole different set of premises now. Even republican republicans were surprised by that. The toxic mix of social media and right wing money really kind of contributed to sort of sending the republican party in particular, off the rails. But i continued, i was struck a lot talking to republicans, a very happy lot of republicans talke to me for the book.
