Senator Brian Schatz

I think it's Vought, but I, you know, it's fine.

I'm very concerned, but there's something that we can all do about it.

I'm sure your listeners and viewers are planning on attending a rally on October 18th somewhere in their community.

And I think what Trump and Pam Bondi and Kash Patel want more than anything is bad behavior, right?

And flags that are not American.

And I just think that we have to be a movement that is peaceful and

that is joyful, that is mainstream, that is patriotic.

This is not time for the, hey, while we're at it, this is the most important issue that I have a burning desire to surface today.

This is about some basic shared humanity and some understanding of what it means to be in the United States of America and to be American.

So bring your American flags.

and bring your open mind, right?

This is not a time to poke anybody in the eye.

One of the things that I think the Trump campaign did very successfully is those rallies looked fun to people, right?

Maybe not to us, but there was a joy to it.

People were dancing.

People had American flags.

And, you know, post-COVID, by the way, a lot of people weren't even doing gatherings.

And here was this kind of communal gathering

event.

And so we're now the party that I think can reclaim this sense of community, this sense of what it means to be an American.
