Well, yeah, Bomani was on my first one, so I decided to have him back again. Now, you do politics, but what I really like about you is even though you're on the left, like me, you come at things from a different perspective. So if somebody was to say to you, Crystal, explain your sort of political ideology in a short phrase, how would you explain it?

Yeah, you definitely are critical towards both parties. But I love that you said populist left because I don't think there's a lot of people like you and I for real in politics. And what I mean by that is for you and I, the working class, I think has always been the centerpiece of what we believe in. And people will say that, but then they don't necessarily actually do the things that lead to it.

I mean, when I try to think of people in the Democratic Party now, if you're just talking on economics, Maybe John Fetterman – Bernie has parts of it, but then parts of it can go the other way, in my opinion. Do you agree with me that there are not a lot of people – first of all, there are not a lot of politicians that are Democrats in office from the places we're talking about, rural America.

But why do you think he's so popular, though? I mean, this is the question I get asked. You and I end up in these groups of like liberal intellectuals, none of whom have ever spent much time in places like Kentucky or rural Ohio. And yet they opine and they go, a lot of these people like Trump, they're voting against their interests. And I try to articulate why I think they do.

Most people listening to this have probably heard my articulation. What would be yours? Why do you think Trump is so popular in these areas when what you're saying I think is objectively correct?
