I can tell you everything you need to know. He’s a Minnesota Democrat, therefore he’s weird. I don’t mean slightly off, eccentric, or whimsical… I mean WEIRD.

In terms of policy, he's certainly not for me.
That being said, he does send out a weekly newsletter recapping what he's been involved with, which is helpful. At the end of each email he includes a clickable YES/NO poll for legislation he's looking at to gauge constituency support, and has various resources (such as a way to sign up to have a donut breakfast with him). Anyway... policies not for me, but he does embrace one of the better approaches for representing our district.

That's really good.
My congressman, twice-failed mayoral candidate, and SBF donation recipient Chuy García has done nothing of the sort, let alone a newsletter.

I never heard of Mr. Phillips.
But unless he is a complete zero, he could win easily.

They should give him secret service protection just to fuck with Kennedy.

Dean doesn't have a chance this time around, unless Biden kicks the bucket in the next year (not improbable), but I think he:
A) Actually does think there is a big risk in Nov next year if it's Biden vs Trump
B) Wants to get his name out there for eventual 2028 recognitionand @jon-nyc LOL

He can't lose
He is running against 2 retarded old men who are both criminals and are hated, hated, hated.
That kind of hate is what got Mr. Trump elected in the first place.

Definitely. I'm sending my kid to the bus stop and it feels like -7 out right now.
Fun fact, did you know elementary schools send kids to the playground for recess outside unless it's -10 degrees or colder. And I just got back from Virginia where they closed schools early because of wind.

That has a far smaller chance than Nikki getting the nomination. Like Powerball win territory.
