Simon Rosenberg is a highly regarded Democratic political strategist and
commentator with more than 3 decades of experience in national politics
and television news. He has built a new home for his political analysis,
commentary, and live political discussions at Hopium Chronicles, an
engaging new project on the Substack media platform. In 2022 Rosenberg

would result in a “red wave”…and he got it right.
