They're a bunch of thugs that come in.
It's a terrible way to talk about American law enforcement.
And just I don't know.
It's some part of me is just repulsed by the whole thing.
But that is the Democratic Party narrative.
That's how they see their identity as opposed to the Republican Party.
And so it was a good speech for Democrats because she reinforced the feeling that they're standing up against tyranny in some way.
Now, Scott addresses this in his book with Wynne Bigley.
where he talks about the absolute conviction of Trump's critics that he was the new Hitler and that this horrible authoritarian regime was descending.
And he said none of that was true.
And when you show people evidence that it wasn't true, they didn't react.
They didn't change their minds.
They were at best placed into a kind of cognitive dissonance.
where they would try to justify the opposite of what they were feeling or experiencing.
But that's how we function, two movies and one screen.
And it's just interesting to see the reactions afterward.
There wasn't two movies, one screen effect in the sense that you had Democrats with their talking points coming on and saying, this was a terrible speech.
It was awful.
He said, Gavin Newsom said it was boring.
Now, that was probably the dumbest comment because I think even Democrats understood it wasn't boring.
