Sure. Well, I mean, you know, look, I think, to be honest, that kind of coach persona is exactly what I'm talking about, Dan or otherwise. You got to play defense with muscle. So right now, Lord knows, with Trump having the House, the Senate and the White House, we should be playing a more muscular defense.

We should be organized and standing up in a more deliberate and forceful way, more strategic way, right? We should be separating, like, I'm sorry, the issues of Greenland are not where we need to be losing our minds. We need to be focusing on the things, again, that are deeply affecting our economic security, our national security, and our democracy.

So we should be playing much more robust defense. But then we should be playing offense. You got to offer something to beat the other guy, right? And for me, I think, you know, I've been toying with this idea of giving a talk sometime later this month that's just called Slaughtering Sacred Cows, right?

That we as Democrats need to also realize that while certainly people who voted for Donald Trump wanted change from their government, that actually a A lot of people don't think the government is working for them. A lot of them want government to change. It's just, we have a 20th century government and it's the 21st century.

Yeah. So for example, to me, I think we need to be honest that while many regulations, right, are done from goodness, right? We want to protect our environment. We want to protect public health. We want to, when you overlap, 20 different regulations so that it becomes impossible to get a permit to build a manufacturing site for 15 years. Then we've lost the forest for the trees, right?

So I am 100% willing to have a real conversation about peeling back regulation. I don't want to hurt the environment or all these other things that we care about, but my farmers... They've been like responsible, good actors for 25 years, right? They get evaluated on how they climb ladders. I'm like, what do you do it ass backwards? Like how do you go up a ladder?

What I'm seeing is we have over-regulated to the point of not being able to get our dollars out. And look, I think about this for things that are very much like important democratic agenda items that we've gotten in our own way by making so many rules and regulations that you can't actually move quickly and show that democracy and government can work.
