In a fascinating conversation, Max Rymer, a member of the Minnesota State Legislature, joins the show to discuss the recent election results in Michigan and the implications for the Democratic Party. With the DSA (Democratic Socialists of America) making significant gains in the state, Rymer shares his insights on the potential consequences for the party and the country.

The conversation delves into the rise of DSA candidates, including Abdul al-Sayed and Rashida Tlaib, who won their respective primaries in Michigan. Rymer notes that the DSA's success is not just limited to Michigan, but is also a trend that's emerging in other states, including Minnesota and Wisconsin. He attributes this shift to the party's failure to connect with working-class voters and its inability to provide a clear alternative to the DSA's radical policies.

Rymer also discusses the potential impact of the DSA's rise on the Democratic Party's ability to win elections in swing states. He notes that the party's reliance on ideologically extreme candidates may ultimately lead to their downfall, citing the example of Michigan, where a moderate candidate may have a better chance of winning. The conversation also touches on the role of social media and the influence of affluent, educated voters who are driving the DSA's success.
