Lucas Kunce is running to be the Democratic nominee against Josh Hawley.

In this video, Kunce makes a strong case against the cowardly culture warrior, with the help of actor Jon Hamm.

Hawley's book 'Manhood" is so myopic I won't even discuss the ludicrous premise he's based it on. But Lucas will.

Manhood.

You'd hope that means courage.

Courage isn't something you can give speeches or write a book about.

It's not sitting on the sidelines while others sacrifice or denying help to those who did.

It isn't putting people down or trying to control them, or using your own power for profit or ambition.

In Missouri, you can't fake courage.

We're the Show Me State.

Courage is something you have to show us.

It shows in the working-class people that pitch in to help the family next door, bankrupted by medical bills.

It shows in the Marine who signed up to honor and serve the community that took care of him.

It shows when a Missourian stands up to the powerful.

When he fights to rebuild his state, to empower people, to secure our future.

If you want to be told about manhood, some guy wrote a book about it.

But if you want someone to show you courage, send Lucas Kunce to the Senate

"If you want to be told about manhood, some guy wrote a book about it. But if you want someone to show you courage, send Lucas Kunce to the Senate."

That says it all.

Here's more on the pushback on Hawley's "manhood":
