It's a start. Ultimately, we need a full fledged media blitz for the next few years on all platforms to regain support and guide the narrative. It's time for the old guard to let the young people take over messaging. Case in point, Biden did a lot of great things in his 4 years. Unfortunately, outside of political circles, most people don't know it.

Trump et. al. tend to suck the air out of the room. But with Epstein we finally have a winning hand. The "Schumer gambit" might look good to old school pols but does little to win support in the long run. We need a new path forward.

I could go on but Pete sums it up...
