One argument I'd make— I think I'm going to make it here and we'll see how it plays out is that maybe we need some nineties kids. Now I say that obviously as a nineties kid, but in the nineties, if you grew up in the nineties, like me, you didn't have the internet. So you appreciate a world without the internet. Uh, I didn't, I, you know, like, I think I got my first email address.

That's what it was an email address.

When I got to college in 1996, and you didn't really use it. It wasn't like something – when we were in college, there was no cell phones, so we still had to memorize everybody's four-digit number for their room. Their room, essentially. Yeah. But we also, that was the last time we balanced the budget. This is the last time we fixed the tax code.

So we saw, we grew up, we saw a group of leaders work in a very bipartisan way to fix stuff. They didn't always get it right. Don't get me wrong. But they did work together to do all kinds of really important things. It was the last time we got close to a peace agreement. I mean, you know, Clinton was there in the Rose Garden with, with Israeli Prime Minister Rabin and the PLO leader Arafat.

And they got as close to a peace deal as anyone. But again, on the budget stuff, it was the last time we balanced the budget. We fixed the tax code. We ran a surplus. We ran a surplus for years. It was the largest economic expansion in American history. And we passed meaningful gun reform. paired with hiring police officers.

So I do think there's a, is this a moment for a 90s kid, at least to be sort of, you know, helping us get to a place where we've fixed the economy you know, government is running way more efficient. I mean, if you grew up in the 90s, you were all about making it work better, you know, finding the fraud and the inefficiencies. You know, we were serious about immigration reform.

You know, like all of these issues that are coming up, we did make some meaningful progress in the 90s. And there's, I think, some lessons to be learned. But those of us who were raised in that time period I think I have a moment, this is a moment for us to step up and say, here's the path forward.
