Michelle Obama

And then they're done talking.

And then they might cut to commercial.

They go to another story, something like that.

It's only here where you have the person looking at the camera telling you how to feel about the buses and telling you what it means for one bus to crash into another bus and telling you why that is the failing of democracy, that these two buses can crash into each other.

And so you're like, at a certain point, you're like, what does this even have to do with?

And so I think that there are aspects of how...

we function as government and how our democracy works that are broken, which have led to the disillusionment of the people.

But I don't think that it's anything that we can't come back from.

I think that there just need to be more, you know, this is like probably not the most charitable way to put it, but there just need to be more spines all around.

I think that there's a lot of like,

Dems consistently fail to capitalize on some of the just pure, pure L's that Republicans take.

And that's what I mean about like a new wave.

I think that at a certain point, you need to either make room for or start nurturing the people who actually see the vision in a different way.

Like these institutions are...

they are fragile and they exist in so much as we are willing to protect them.

And so if the people that are supposed to be standing guard aren't willing to do that, then it's a lot like speeding.

It's like, you're not supposed to do it, but I guess if you don't get caught, it's fine.

You know?

Thank you.

Oh, thank you.
