Yeah, so I think that a couple things. So one of the big issues that I have with kind of like this, I don't know if we call it era of Trumpism or populism, is this total disregard for institutions and this disconnect from participation in the system. So it's one of the big things that I fight with progressives about, who cares because they're all 20 years old, they don't vote anyway.

It can't be saved. Nothing that we do can fix it. And I think that what that leads people to doing is, one, they disconnect further.

So that's one of the reasons why when we talk about conservative participation, I want there to be more conservatives that are trying to participate in academia.
