Tariff on lumber is going to make that first home even harder to buy. That extra amount that it costs is the Trump tax. And so we just need to be really clear that these are decisions being made by one individual alone. But the thing that moves people the most right now that they understand, maybe at a level that wasn't understood 10 years ago, is Medicaid.

So in Kentucky, how I describe it is that it covers the people we love the most, our parents and our kids. Half of Kentucky's kids are covered by Medicaid. 70% of our long-term care costs are covered by Medicaid. And without Medicaid and expanded Medicaid, rural health care ends. That hospital that's in somebody's community closes.

So I think the first thing you hear is concern over the health care system. And they may or may not be talking about Medicaid directly, but they recognize that what's being threatened right now could really impact their community.

And the second biggest employer is the hospital system or the clinics. And so, you think about how this could gut rural America and jobs. I mean, I see it and I hear about it in each of these communities.

Well, people should be alarmed in the very least that we have a president who apparently does not believe in his oath of office and doesn't value the fact that the Constitution only makes him one branch of government.

It's the finding out who is the us and who is the them. And that's bad for America and it's bad for our future. Now, we're going to have to post this presidency, find a way to heal because we cannot be red and blue on every issue, left or right on every issue. We got to get back to right versus wrong instead of right versus left.

And I do think that the more that this president does and how he talks, especially about people, is and will make an impact. I mean, take the veterans we're hearing from that serve their country and then go into the civil service with our government. They're being laid off and then told it's their fault because they did a poor job, which is a total lie. That hurts. It hurts them.
