My Take
Chris Murphy is a politician I find genuinely hard to be cynical about. A Williams College lawyer from White Plains, serving as Connecticut's junior senator since 2013, he's become the persistent voice on gun reform, willing to hold the floor for hours when it would be easier to stay quiet. There's a Leo's conviction in him paired with the reflective streak of an author. I tend to view American politicians warily, but Murphy's arguments feel coherent and earned rather than poll-tested. I respect anyone who keeps raising an unpopular alarm long after the news cycle has moved on.
