Because now that we've been found out, we've got to make sure that never happens again.

We need more secrecy.

And the vicious cycle continues.

So, if you can break that vicious cycle by having some kind of external check, that's what you actually need.

Like an empowered Congress that is willing to check the executive.

Yeah.

And Andrew Yang has made this point before.

I know I've heard him say it, that the re-election rate of Congress is super high.

It's like 80, 90 percent, whatever it is.

The approval rating for Congress is like in the teens.

So how is it we have such a divergence between the re-election rate and the approval rating?

It has to do with the...

the kind of electoral system.

The people who are incentivized to actually run for Congress, in many cases, they're the most ideological on either side because the only race that matters is actually the primary.

Because if you're in a district that is 90% Trump voters,

The Republican is going to win the general election.

It doesn't matter who it is.

So, you know, the primary is the main election that happens in those districts.

And if that's the case, well, the person who can win the primary is going to win the general.

And who's going to win the primary?
