“We have a governor named Keisha. If that doesn’t tell you how the election went. I think Tuesday night was a great Democratic response to what we’ve seen at the federal level, where people are unhappy about groceries, costs of living, just everyday life. Now we have to deliver. Democrats have to step up. I don’t want to see two years of fighting Trump. I don’t want to see two years of them going on CNN, talking about their subpoena, someone impeached, all this stuff. I want them to lower costs. I want them to figure out grocery stores, health care, schools, and I want to see investments where local people can feel them immediately.”
“I think people across the country have been clear that what they want is a government that keeps their promises and focuses on the cost of living, our housing crisis, real accountability in our justice system, and I think that’s the message voters delivered, and that’s what I hope our partners who are just coming into office are going to get to work on right away.”
“Any wish that I have for the Democratic Party, after all of the success of the blue wave, is that we keep focused and keep that momentum going as we focus on the presidential election cycle.”
“I think why there was a blue tsunami was because they were listening to the people and addressing the people’s needs and the current climate we’re in. I think that’s going to be the most successful thing they can do.”
“We have to move on to the issues that have been spoken by the people. Now is the time. There is work to be done. As Kobe Bryant would say, the job’s not finished. And I feel like there’s still more to be said, and there’s a lot more to be done and a lot more to fight for.”
“Well, as we have seen, the Democratic Party was successful [on election night]. Now let us see what they can accomplish. It will be difficult because even if this is a ‘lame duck president,’ Trump has veto power, and he can still make legislation difficult for the Democrats. But I am hoping the Democratic Party truly listened to the people.”
