Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, D-Mich., joins Morning Joe to discuss the legacy of the Biden administration, the early actions of the Trump administration, the way forward for Democrats and the YA version of her book 'True Gretch: Lessons for Anyone Who Wants to Make a Difference'.
My path into the Democratic Party began at our family’s kitchen table. Growing up, we ate dinner each night alongside the portraits of two household heroes: the pope and President John F. Kennedy. Our reverence for Kennedy was rooted not merely in our pride as Irish Americans. It was rooted in a deep sense of trust that he and his fellow Democrats were dedicated to fighting for families like ours — working-class families that lived life one missed paycheck away from economic calamity.
If we want to win tough races, Democrats need to build new political infrastructure that supports our candidates every day of every cycle. Think of it this way: If a house is falling apart, you don’t just repaint the walls. You rebuild it from the foundation up. The same is true for the DNC: We must rebuild our political home from the ground up. Building new political infrastructure may not be sexy. But it is absolutely essential. Though this task is daunting, Democrats have done it before.
