It's about showing that you care about
something, and you're willing to stand up for it, and you're willing to fight for it.
And frankly, we have the perfect antagonist right now, Elon Musk, you're right, this kind of South African oligarch, and Donald Trump, this guy who's enriching himself while they loot the government in front of everybody's eyes.
This is not a hard target in terms of an opposition that is clearly not on the side of most people in this country.
I think what is needed is, yes, the tactics that we've been talking about, yes, the big coalitions we've been talking about, but they kind of return to a sense of who are we as a country?
What do we stand for?
What do we want our identity to be, not as just white Americans or other ethnicity groups, but what do we want to be as Americans?
And I think that's been missing a bit over the last decade in terms of the people saying for democracy, these aren't just institutions of government.
This is who we want to be as Americans.
And I think the time is ripe for people to start to make an argument that is very different from Donald Trump's, but also different from the kind of antiseptic, almost academic defenses of democracy that we've been making in the Trump years.
Who didn't get it?
Upstairs.
So what do you think she does?
I would argue that the fact that Rachel was on that set was enough.
No, but Nicole and Lawrence might not have shown up without Rachel.
Rachel is untouchable.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So do you think she takes time off?
Or do you think she wakes up and she's doing this?
