I felt in that trap for a long time as well, where I thought, you know, Republicans are lying about everything and I'm not going to believe anything they have to say.

They're just making things up. Well, because I had that mindset, I actually missed. some of what was going on in the country that they were trying to raise some alarm about. And so don't automatically assume that your political opponents are bringing up issues that don't really exist.

They might be exaggerating, there might be some hyperbole, but it's worth digging into to see if there's a legitimate concern. And I say the same for Republican voters as well.

OK, obviously, there are exceptions for people who make a point to be hateful, loathsome human beings. But I don't think the majority of Americans fall in that category. When it comes to people in positions of power, whether they be Democrats or Republicans, hold them accountable. Fact check them. Don't just believe what they have to say at face value.

I think there's a reason why 80% of Americans... are not in favor of what you just described. 80% of Americans, according to polling, find it to be deeply unfair because biology does matter. I don't think that transgender people should be treated inhumanely, but I also don't think that we should create situations in which women are treated unfairly. And in this case, it's just unfair.

It's that simple. And by the way, the governor of California, Gavin Newsom, says that it's unfair. And I don't think it makes him look better to, on one hand, say it's unfair.

And I don't think it's going to work out that way because simply calling it unfair is enough to get the activists riled up and angry with you.
