i think what shocks me about this entire situation is just how they're really relying on the idea that people are so horrible these days that they would allow this to go unchecked that people will just continue on i mean i

love the olympics the opening ceremony for the winter olympics just happened and i was like wow what a celebration of humanity across the globe and i this for the first time i think in my life watching team usa come out who i am rooting for i was just like i feel bad for them like it sucks that this is what they have to represent and i wish that dan scavino would just end donald trump's career already if he has that power use the power dan i don't know if it's i mean if this ends his career because i think that

No, they would not care.

Listen, things are getting worse, so how will we know, right?

I think that the trajectory is downward, like the stock market's in the shitter.

People, rich people, poor people, everybody's feeling the lack of opportunity.

It feels like, you know, recession o'clock.

So I think that like, will we be able to pinpoint it to the moment where Donald Trump was racist?

I mean, it could have started a few months ago if that's the case.

We don't know for sure.

I am really happy that there are people who are willing to invite these people in.

I expect that guy to vote for Donald Trump in 2028.

But I do think we need people like Anna who will welcome them in because I can't.

I can't do it.

I'm very tired and I don't want to talk to them, but I'm glad that he picked up the phone because I think, you know, C-SPAN doesn't really get like huge hits often, but they do stick like grits when it's like an older person who's like a little bit seasoned, who clearly has, you know, reluctantly made this phone call to be like, all right, finally, I can say it.

I was wrong.

I'm sure tomorrow he'll feel differently, but it felt good today to have that guy say monkeys is a step too far.
