And His New Girlfriend is Crucial to His Success

I cannot look at my Facebook page or Twitter (X) feed without seeing Senator Murphy bashing President Trump. His attacks are vicious, vile, scatological and for Trump-hating Democrats, effective.

He offers no message other than President Trump is an illegitimate president who wants to give tax cuts to billionaires while slashing Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security. He opposes Trump’s plan to end the Ukraine War, parroting the Democratic base’s mantra “Give War a Chance.” Ironically, these same people once chanted “Give Peace a Chance” decades ago.

To some extent, Murphy has Trump to thank for his success. While Trump is known for destroying political dynasties – the Bushes, the Bidens, the Clintons, the Obamas and the Cheney’s – he has also been a main factor in destroying the mainstream media while giving rise to social media, especially Twitter (X).

The mainstream media was beginning to struggle before President Trump arrived on the scene. The internet made news free. Advertising revenue for newspapers plummeted. The Hartford Courant, the oldest newspaper in the United States, is now a shell of its former self and does not even have offices. The New York Times, once the paper of record, lives in fear of its liberal readers, who will cancel their subscriptions in mass because of a single conservative op-ed.

Furthermore, the rise of the internet created oligarchs with unfathomable amounts of money. Thus, Elon Musk bought Twitter (X) and Jeff Bezos purchased the Washington Post.

But President Trump picked up where President Obama started, using Facebook, then Twitter (X) and then at his son Baron’s advice, podcasts. President Trump’s three-hour podcast with Joe Rogan garnered over 46,000,000 views and was instrumental in President Trump’s garnering a large percentage of young male vote including 33% of Black men under 35.

Trump embraced Elon Musk, who campaigned tirelessly for Trump in Pennsylvania and was rewarded with the task heading DOGE, the Department of Government efficiency.

Between Musk and Trump, their Twitter (X) feeds hit hundreds of millions daily. President Trump does not rely on the mainstream media to get his message out, he uses Twitter (X). And his former celebrity journalist detractors - Joy Reid, Don Lemon and Jim Acosta - are now bagging groceries.

Thus the savvy Murphy concluded, “If you can’t beat ‘em; join ‘em.” Unlike other boring political videos (that means you Senator Blumenthal), Murphy’s are passionate and generate millions of views. He is fast becoming a national Democrat and presidential player without having to raise ridiculous amounts of money or attending every rubber chicken even in Iowa and New Hampshire. And even if he obtains interviews on MSNBC and CNN, their viewership is low, and he is already preaching to the converted.

The 51-year-old Murphy separated from his wife of seventeen years and mother to his two children and is now dating an attractive 39-year-old, Tara McGowen.

But Ms. McGowen is not just another pretty face. A self-described “childless woman voter,” she is a genius at social marketing, having co-founded Lockwood Strategy in 2017 and ran digital ads for Planned Parenthood and the National Democratic Redistricting Committee. She was instrumental helping Democrats take over the State Legislature in Virginia and turning the state from Purple to Blue. She has set up political PACs that have raised millions for the Democrats.

Presently, she is the publisher of Courier Newsroom, a left-leaning digital media company. With this position, she has been able to raise her new boyfriend’s political profile with expertly produced viral videos and tweets that reach all corners of the Democratic blogosphere.

Senator Murphy could not have found a better person to fulfill his political ambitions.

Republicans are chortling how the Democratic Party has lost its way and that their approval is at an all time low. Usha Vance and Casey DeSantis are already arguing over the curtains for the Oval Office in 2028.

This is silly. No one can predict what the political milieu will be in three years. If someone told you in 2008 that a Black man named Barack Hussein Obama would be elected president for eight years and then be replaced by Donald Trump, you would have called 911 to get that person immediate psychiatric help. But that is exactly what happened.

The Democrats are in search of a new leader, and with Ms. McGowen’s help, that leader could be Senator Chris Murphy. And Republicans must take Senator Murphy seriously, very seriously.
