I'm sorry.

That's all right.

Go on.

But the thing I was going to say is this.

There is this calculation that takes place every election cycle in the midterms and only in the Democratic Party, by the way.

This never happens in the Republicans, what I'm about to say, which is how do we get these racists on board?

Oh, we have to become a little bit more racist.

Oh, we have to become transphobic.

Oh, we have to do this.

We have to do that.

No, we want those voters to come and vote for the Democratic Party or to vote for the most progressive politician that's available.

We want them to do that.

But we don't want them to do that by conceding on these ridiculous lines.

We want them to do that because we're offering something to every American unconditionally.

Medicare for all is obviously a great example of this.

Because at the end of the day, races need healthcare too.

Races need a roof over their heads too.

And if they have that roof over their heads, and if they have that healthcare, maybe it's gonna be a little bit more difficult for them to act out on their racist desires

Or even if they don't, it doesn't matter because they voted for the non-racist option or the less racist option in that election.

So my argument always is instead of trying to bargain with them and instead of trying to concede on these culture war narratives, offer them
