Reflections on Democracy and Authoritarianism

Steve Schmidt sits down with Terry Virts, a 30-year Air Force fighter pilot veteran and NASA astronaut, who is now running in the 9th Congressional District of Texas. The Houston Chronicle stated in its endorsement of Terry that "in MAGA country, Terry Virts offers hope of holding onto a redistricted seat." His district is literally 'Ground Zero' for gerrymandering, and supporting Terry's race is critical to crushing MAGA in the midterm elections. Hear what Terry has to say about the kind of candidates required for the Democratic Party to flip the House, what he will do if he is elected to Congress, as well as some fascinating stories about his experience as a fighter pilot and astronaut.
