And I love that she points out that that's discipline.
matched
I think you actually need a great deal of discipline when you're talking to mass groups of people.
matched
But where I think the vice president shines at what we've seen over the last few weeks, as Rashad points out, she really shines when she turns those broad brush kind of policy and proposals and ideas around.
matched
When she turns that into something specific for each community, when she's communicating the way her proposals will affect specific communities, I think she's actually really, really effective.
matched
And it feels new, not because she's saying anything particularly new, but because she's contextualizing it for you and for your life.
matched
And I think that's really, really effective.
matched
Yeah, I think a lot of this is actually reflective of how little the American people really pay attention to politics.
matched
Now, this may be a little privileged, and it is.
matched
As a person who gets paid to pay attention to politics, of course, I know a little bit more about what's going on, like you two.
matched
But I think most Americans are too busy fighting cancer, paying for bills, taking their kids to school, being a human being, trying to make it in this country, that they don't really pay attention.
matched
Right.
matched
So if you ask me, the vice president has been to Atlanta like 17 or 18 times since since being, you know, vice president to Georgia more broadly.
matched
She's done an HBCU tour like we know she's actually really engaged with the community in meaningful ways.
matched
But those things don't make headlines when you have conflicts abroad and at home and people are kind of going about their day to day lives.
matched
And so what she's doing now is taking an opportunity to kind of raise our collective consciousness there.
matched
about the way that she's been engaging with the Black community specifically since she's been a public figure.
matched
I think at this stage, many of the people who've made the decision to hitch their political carts to Donald Trump, they're on that train.
matched
I don't think they're getting off.
matched
I do think it complicates their narrative, though.
matched
Much of what I've encountered when I talk to folks who are Black MAGA, they are saying that, oh, she isn't Black.
