This week on Branding Democrats, we're joined by Congressman Mark Pocan for an insider's look at Congress, the Democratic Party, and the challenges of being a sitting Democrat in the Trump era.

After more than a decade in Congress, Pocan has served through the Obama years, Trump’s first term, the Biden administration, and now Trump's return to power. We ask him what has changed in Washington, what hasn't, and whether Congress is still functioning as a co-equal branch of government.

We also discuss the growing debate inside the Democratic Party: Should Democrats focus on affordability, corruption, democracy, or something else entirely? What message is resonating with voters, and where are Democrats still missing the mark?

Tune in for Congressman Mark Pocan's POV.
