I want to ask, what are the lessons you think we've learned that's sticking folks' heads from that time?

Like, is there something that for you, you feel like, hey, they'll never convince me again because I learned some of this over the last eight years and it's fundamental to how I think about politics now?

Yeah, yeah, there is a way that the civility piece has an actual impact because I don't think the kind of nice guy finished first mindset of politics folks think anymore.

I think there is some level of grossness

that I think he has helped build into the cost that even some voters expect.

Mm-hmm.

All right, y'all, I'm going to play a game.

And I got to say, like, I don't know how this is going to go, but I believe in you, which is the most important part.

We have three buckets.

I have a magenta-y color bucket, a purple bucket, and a green bucket.

And all three of these are going to represent different policy areas that we're going to focus on later in the show.

And so the question I'm going to ask you all is to think through

Three different things, three different questions that you have that are not related to Donald Trump, that are not related to an individual about politics, but more so things that you want to ask about the country and put it into one of the three buckets of issues that we're going to focus on.

Now the first, and this is going to be represented by our magenta bucket, is America's role in the world.

So a question about foreign policy, a question about the growing war in Iran, America's relationship to Israel and Gaza.

I think that is something that comes up in a lot of conversations and is going to be represented by our foreign policy bucket.

The second bucket we're going to have is affordability and kind of domestic issues.

So if we think about things that I think are your kind of traditional kitchen table, things we talk about in politics, let's call this the kitchen table.

And I'll put econ in politics.

My handwriting is getting worse, I think, by the years.
