Rahm Emanuel Avoids Answering if Dem Energy Is with AOC: Dems Are Winning When There’s High Turnout

‘What‘s fascinating to me, after November 2024, we are winning these special elections in Republican districts with high turnout’

EXCERPT:


EMANUEL: "Yeah. Well, let me say this about the election since November and before that. In every special election before November 2024, Democrats won specials where there was low turnout. What‘s fascinating to me, after November 2024, we are winning these special elections in Republican districts with high turnout. Like, Wisconsin was record turnout. That‘s also true in the state Senate races in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Iowa and Minnesota, and the Supreme Court case — office in Wisconsin. That tells me there‘s a tremendous amount of energy and it‘s solely focused, which is why we want this, back to your first question, as a referendum on Donald Trump and his tax and the way they‘re going to hurt the economy and throw it into a recession needlessly. Now, second to that is there‘s energy in the party out in the country, and the Washington Democratic Party needs to focus on making sure that the focus is on President Trump, what he is doing and what we‘re doing to stop it.”
