In Stockholm. Quickly realizing that every Swede I meet thinks I’m trolling them.

We did our first 2028 Democratic primary draft as the reconstituted "Still Counting" podcast!

@ClareMalone, @NateSilver538 and I are ready for your fire and fury 🔥⚡️

Ok, @NateSilver538, this whole "my laptop is bigger than your laptop" schtick is getting out of control.

@z_e_silver I said undecided voter *in a traditionally Republican state like Texas or Iowa*

[Crooked Media @CrookedMedia]

With the first pick in the Still Counting 2028 Democratic draft, @ClareMalone selects... Gavin Newsom! @NateSilver538 and @galendruke do not agree with the pick.

This *did* eventually go off the rails, but there was a lot of good election analysis too!

Our first-ever GD Politics happy hour, featuring @marywitha4 & @baseballot.

We chatted for 90 mins about everything from Nathaniel's "type," to the MN Senate race, to Brené Brown 👇

@baseballot Where did you find this?!?!

@janky_dank I'm just saying that it's very unpopular:

"66% of adults say that the method of determining representation in the upper chamber should not be changed, and all states should continue to have two senators regardless of population size."

[Galen Druke @galendruke]

The DSA is an unrepresentative group of Americans (very male, educated, white) that backs many unpopular policies (abolishing prisons, the police, the Senate) AND numerous popular policies (taxing rich, Medicare 4 all, rent caps).

Taken together, what do they hope to achieve? 👇

AOC could make a serious run for the 2028 Dem nom.

Mamdani is one of the most admired Dems in the country.

Their organization, the DSA, still remains pretty far outside the mainstream.

How do you square those things?

I talked to @chashomans all about it on today's episode.

[Galen Druke @galendruke]

That's what today's GD Politics episode is all about:
