That's, you know, that's greedflation and corporate consolidation that's at the heart of that issue.

Like, what has worked for you?

I mean, talking to them and explaining to them exactly what I'm explaining right now, which is that...

I mean, I had this conversation with Theo Vaughn where I felt like a light switch came on in his mind when we were having this back and forth, when I said exactly this thing about it's not a trans person that's hurting you at all, but isn't it weird that the Republicans are constantly angling it in that direction and never really talking about big corporations and big pharma and all of these capital owners, all these very powerful people that basically run the show?

in an almost bipartisan manner.

And when I have that conversation with a lot of regular Americans, ordinary Americans that haven't put a lot of thought into it, they go, wait a minute, that does kind of make sense.

All of a sudden he's like a legitimate political force.

I'm like,

I've been doing that already.

Like I was infinitely more effective sitting at home and just talking shit, right?

Than I am sitting in front of a live audience with like 600 people.

Although that's still good and I enjoy it personally, but like, and I do that for candidates that I trust, candidates that I want to endorse and fight for.
