I feel like it's a fair question, and it speaks to the fear that so many people have. I was watching the videos of you this week at University of San Francisco and University of Washington, and I'm so glad that you posted it because people need to realize it is still there and encouraged.

And I really hope, again... encouraging people to do the same in their own way. You don't have to go be Charlie Kirk, but maybe it is that school board meeting. Maybe it's just a conversation with your neighbor who gave you a hard time back in 2008 for having a John McCain sign in my yard. Like those little things, have the conversations. That I think qualifies as standing up too with kindness.

We can do it with kindness and with class. That's the difference.

I think it's going to take a very, very long time to regain the trust of the American people. And it should, because it's been abused. And they took us, and I consider myself a consumer as well as a journalist. Am I a journalist now? Am I an opinionist? Like, I don't know what I am.

Thank you. Truth teller. And, again, just trying to ask the questions that I hope others would want to hear from whoever I'm speaking with. It's going to take, for me, I don't know. I don't think it's coming. Not with the mainstream media. Not with traditional TV news and ABC, NBC, CBS, Fox, as far as those four networks.

And frankly, it doesn't matter which cable news network you watch either, even if you agree with them, it is biased. And so to me, it's really, really difficult. It is inherent. We all have to make an effort and go dig and research and not just have an opinion, but know why and be able to discuss it. Now, I know who I listen to and I know my why behind it.

And most importantly, when you have that information, Understand they have a right to their opinion too. I say this to my kids. I say this to anybody who will listen. Just because you disagree with somebody doesn't mean they're wrong. Because at the end of the day, I don't know your why. I don't know what you went through. Every single opinion is based on someone's experience.

So when we judge, I don't think it's the right way to handle it. So go dig, go do your research, know your why, and respect other people's why. But I think mainstream media is dead.

We need it, absolutely. But at that moment, yes. And also, kudos to Donald Trump in that moment for complete self-control. And he just got quiet and let him fry. Let him do it to himself. Sorry.

And that, I mean... But that was a newer version of Donald Trump, right?
