You know, frankly, some of the excesses of the progressive movement have pushed a lot of these people away and told them they're evil, they're privileged, terrible white men that are, you know, we all know all of that. So I think what you're seeing here is fairly straightforward. Like the Republicans reached out to them. They built those relationships.

And the Democrats, for political reasons, did not. And I think it's really, really disastrous because I think a lot of these people, if we talk to them, I think that there's a lot that we would agree with. So I think it's a real failure on our part.

It's Democrats going back to the same stupid playbook where every single day we're going to take everything that the Trump administration is doing. We're going to try to turn it into something. And the impetus here is not strategy. It is moralizing. And the fundamental problem with the Democratic Party right now, which I really want to fix, is we are unable to give arguments about policy.

We'd love to sit on that moral high ground that we're better than you and point out how bad the other side is. So you see this arm gesture.
