I think right now is an opportunity to organize, to utilize the anger and the resentment that a lot of people feel on the ground and realize that if nobody else has us, we have one another's backs.
And Don, you were on the ground in Minneapolis.
I'm sure you saw that momentum.
This is not just a base of support amongst the activists of the Democratic Party.
That's one of the things that I have seen at least.
in all of my protest coverage that there is a unified front that is building right now that is even expressing their discontent with the democrats that will uh not do the right thing and and actually hold trump to account and and gum up the works of his uh fascist tyranny to the best of their ability so i think like
Outside of the Susan Collins and the Tim Scotts expressing their discontent with Donald Trump on this moment and then going back to voting for his agenda every step of the way, I think that this is a real opportunity for, once again, to push back against this administration with our communities and organize at the basis of the community to make sure that we are still continuing to protect our neighbors.
If the administration tries to come back and do the same thing that they're continuing to do in Minneapolis right now.
I also want to hang on one second.
Look, all I'm going to say is this.
OK, a lot of blue ticket, straight ticket Democrat voters have, in my opinion, radicalized in these in these last couple of months, which is a good thing overall, because they are demanding more from their representatives on the Democratic Party front.
I apologize if you guys are hearing my phone ringing in the hotel room that I'm in currently.
I believe I have a guest that was supposed to be coming right now, but I'll tell him to.
I'll tell him to wait.
But the other point that I was going to make is that guy's apology is great.
It makes us feel like we had the right mindset all along.
But in my opinion, those apologies are hollow if he's not actually standing out on the streets alongside the rest of his community.
I'm not going to sit here and be like, well, how could you have done this?
You voted for him three times.
It's not like he was any different the first time around.
