But I also think our leadership needs to be very clear about not not sugarcoating this. And Donald Trump obviously disrespects the American public. He thinks they're not smart enough to understand this and doesn't care. I do believe the American public knows. And I do believe when they see stories like this, that this is why these town halls are growing so big.
This is why folks are starting to question. And what I truly worry that I get sucked into, too, is they throw so much at it. it's this is the stuff that you should watch this is that disappearing people sharing our most guarded secrets on global conflict with a truly unstable private citizen who has no authority um and appears to not care so yeah i i would just say this is chilling um

I am. Thanks for having me. I'm kind of wondering where I fall on this list of guests, but I'm excited. You and I have been friends for a while, so we appreciate it. But you and I talked about this for a while, trying to understand during a Trump presidency, how do we best serve our folks? How do we get back there?

Well, and I think that's what people are doing. Look, this is something hadn't been done, what you're doing. And people are, you know, and we're trying to enter spaces. And look, I don't know if all of them are going to work. But the fact of the matter is, we don't want to win elections just to say Democrats won elections. We want to win elections to improve people's lives.

When we're losing elections, chaos reigns, which we're seeing right now. I'm at a town hall and these folks are standing up. They're a VA nurse. They're concerned what's happening at the VA. They're a farmer that's concerned. They're folks that are concerned about their personal reproductive rights and their life choices. And if we can't be a respected opposition or alternative,

That really worries me. And I say this, Gavin, that I didn't go to the Democrats. They came to me with Social Security, with GI Bill. It was clear when, at least my age growing up, Democrats stood with working people, Republicans stood with the wealthy. And there was nothing necessarily wrong with that. It was at least an argument. It feels much more polarized now, but people don't see us as that.
