Democrats NEED To Focus On “Making Life Better” (w/ Malcom Kenyatta)

So you walked, why, I don't, we, why did you walk? Uh, all, I, I've been getting this story kind of out of, like, my peripheral.

Yup.

It's, like, the SEPTA's broken so people can't go to the Eagles games anymore.

Yup.

Un- u- unless they have tickets and then it's, like, the FanDuel had to come in and fix it and, and, and fund it.

Like, the funding is so low for public transit.

Yeah.

That that's, like, a crisis and then your time-

Wait, FanDuel? Wait, wait.

FanDuel?

FanDuel.

Yeah, the gambling site is paying-

They did.

... is throwing money in so that people can go tailgate at the Eagles games via, via...

This is true, right, Malcolm?

This is, this is, this is true.

We're having private businesses now.

So explain the cri- explain what the crisis is and then talk about your walk.

I, I truly don't understand it at all, so if you could just start like you're talking to a five year old.

Yup, yup.

So, so it's, it's, it's the most uncomplicated and sad story in the world.

In one of the largest metro, uh, areas in the entire country, Republicans are actively and willfully, um, dismantling public transit.

You know, I was just in Texas yesterday because I'm a maniac, after walking 105 miles, the next morning I got on a plane to go headline a fundraiser in Texas and then I got back on a plane to, to, to, to come home to do some fun stuff that we're gonna do outside the game.

We have some great signs that, uh, folks are gonna be holding, uh, reminding people who defunded SEPTA and what's going on in this moment.

But, but long story short, I mention Texas because you remember the Texas Democrats who fled their state to try to do what they could to draw attention to and push back against the gerrymandering happening in their state.
