Yeah, it was it was really rough because my mother like hated my dad.

She could never tell you anything he did wrong.

It was just like he's an evil white patriarchal bad, bad Republican man.

One of my earliest memories is them fighting over the Bush Dukakis election in 88 and like threatening to lock each other in the house so that the one couldn't cancel the other one's vote.

Was this before after Kitty Dukakis drank mouthwash?

Or what did she drink?

She drank something like that.

I think so.

Aftershave or mouthwash to try to get drunk?

Yeah.

The pressure of the election must have been so insane.

And this is pre-social media, right?

And this lady was already struggling with alcoholism.

And I think she was hospitalized for drinking something that was not a drink.

Can we find out what that was?

It was really crazy, right?

Do you remember that?

I just remember that whole election being pretty nuts as far as the Democrats versus Republicans.

And this was when Democrats were more like how Republicans are right now.

They weren't super insane.
