It's AOC.

AOC, why are we shutting down?

Why are we refusing to help Republicans keep the government open?

She goes, well, because they're trying to raise your health insurance premiums by double.

And they don't want to meet with us and they don't want to talk about it.

And Bernie's like, and you're right that we're doing that.

And our health care system is already a mess, a disaster.

And then Bernie actually talked about something in that video that I hadn't heard any other Democrat talk about that I'm now saying when I do my TV hits is the studies that are out there show if you increase health insurance premiums by the amount of money that Republicans want to right now, 50,000 working class Americans are going to die every single year on average.

I had not heard that from any other Democrat before.

That is a level of moral clarity that is key.

And I don't think it has to be like, you know, a DSA or Bernie wing or moderate or any of that.

I just think like you need to be able to speak to what you stand for and why you're running in a much stronger sense than a lot of the candidates the establishment puts up right now.

They just can't do it.

They got to wait for a poll.

They got to talk to their TV guy.

They got to blah, blah, blah.

And like, I'm just kind of tired of it.

I'd rather you like let it rip.

And the Republicans are better at letting it rip.

Now, the bottom, you know, 50% of the things they say are ridiculous and insane and get them in trouble.
