But what people appreciate—and this is one of the best things about Americans—

They love authenticity.

I think that's actually what was appealing about Donald Trump when he first ran in the Republican primary in 2015, right?

He said all sorts of things that people didn't like, but they knew he was actually telling them what he really thinks.

And that authenticity in the environment of all these fake politicians was very appealing.

When you look at members of the Democratic Party right now, they have not gotten that message yet, save for a few people.

And look, even on the Republican side, you have someone like Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene, who is saying things that are considered like sacrilege when it comes to the Republican Party.

But she is garnering a lot of positive attention from rank and file Republicans, but also people who are center left who are like, oh, my God, I totally agree with her on what she's saying here.

Maybe there's a way to work together for the

first time in my adult life, I'm seeing opportunities for people on both sides of the political aisle to work together for a common cause.

And that's a wonderful thing.

But I think the establishment, the Democratic establishment, is still very much in the mindset of everything is a left versus right paradigm.

There are enemies because they identify as Republicans, and we're never going to give them credit when they agree with us on things.

We're going to continue feeding into division and divisive rhetoric.

And I think rank and file Americans, ordinary American voters are sick of it.

So we'll see how this plays out.

I have to agree with you.

Yeah, I actually think that is the case.

The fact that she became defensive, apologetic.

And now look, I don't think that would convince all of her critics to then support her.
