You're right.
But, you know, the more we normalize this... And, you know, I was in Texas the other day and walking through the airport and saw all these...
These magazine covers, I guess this happens every year around Christmas, but, you know, there's all this Donald Trump on the cover of these magazines, you know, the special commemorative issue of Donald Trump, the 47th president of the United States.
And, you know, this wonderful glowing picture of him and everything.
Yeah, he's the president of the United States, but he's also a convicted felon.
He's a convicted felon who is facing three other criminal cases, by the way, who may at some point be resumed because they have not all been dismissed with prejudice and who has been impeached two times.
But we want to rehabilitate him in the media.
This is the point I just want to make in conclusion.
Just because somebody wins or somebody has power doesn't mean that they're right.
We should have learned this through slavery and segregation, through the McCarthyism era and the Red Scare and all these different times when we vilified a group of people.
That doesn't mean that the people who empower are right.
And we have to unlearn that lesson.
I was just talking about this film, Wicked, which is based on the musical, of course, which I'm sure you've already seen.
But the whole storyline is so appropriate to where we are today because it's all about convincing the people of Oz that the person of color, the witch, the so-called green witch, is the real enemy, as opposed to the rich white guy who's in Oz who's running everybody's lives.
This is the art of distraction.
They're trying to convince us that we should be worried about...
Kamala Harris and the DEI people in the military, instead of worrying about Donald Trump, who's setting up an autocracy, a cackistocracy in the United States government.
Thanks, Don.
Great being with you.
