How Gen Z Democratic Candidates are STRIKING BACK at Trump

Can a 27-year-old social media star shake up Congress with a no-holds-barred approach to fighting Trump? Join Tara Palmeri on The Tara Palmeri Show as she dives into the bold, unapologetic world of Isaiah Martin, a Gen Z Democratic candidate running for Texas’s 18th district. With a massive TikTok following and a viral moment that landed him in jail for 30 hours, Martin is redefining political campaigns with his fiery rhetoric and digital savvy. From his arrest at a Republican gerrymandering meeting to raising a record-breaking $700,000 from small donors, he’s taking the fight to the GOP with a style reminiscent of AOC and Jasmine Crockett. But can his “fight fire with fire” approach actually get things done in Congress? Plus, hear how his stance on a major issue has shifted in the last two years. Tune in for an electrifying conversation about the future of the Democratic Party and the rise of a new generation of fighters. What do you think about Isaiah Martin’s bold strategy—will it energize Democrats or burn bridges in Congress?
