For example, I just read a report, Don, before I came on your show, that in Chicago, an elementary school refused an ICE raid this morning at an elementary school that's 90 percent Latino.
I don't know who they were trying to get, a teacher, a student.
But again, we need to put that in context.
I don't know how many elementary schools were attempted raids happened under Biden.
That's a $64 billion question.
Why do we have so many low-information voters in this country?
You've seen the polls, Don.
People who read the news, follow the news, try and keep themselves informed, tended to vote Democratic and Kamala Harris.
People who didn't follow the news, don't follow events, tend to get their news from social media or YouTube or podcasts voted for Donald Trump.
Now, that's not about being elitist or looking down on anyone or judging people.
It's just a fact.
Right.
Low information voters were drawn to Donald Trump.
And why wouldn't they?
I mean, if they don't know about Donald Trump, then they're not going to judge him in the same way.
I think the media made a huge mistake on our industry was so cocky about our reach and our influence that I would have people say to me, well, come on, it's all baked in.
Everyone knows about Trump.
We don't we don't need to say that about everyone knows.
But actually turns out, no, a lot of people don't know about Donald Trump.
I just give one example.
