And I could hear the footsteps approaching. So I jumped out. I was like, boom! With the arms up. Big body motions. Loud. It wasn't them. It was like some 40-year-old man with a bald head who was like, ah! And then he and I were just staring at each other, wondering why I had just done this to him, looking at each other.

And he started laughing and then I started laughing and we both wound up doubled over laughing. So funny because it's a perfect stranger wondering. I don't know if he knew who I was or what, but he was clearly wondering why the crazy lady was trying to terrify him as he boarded the Delta flight. And then my family had the extra bonus of having seen it all because they were next.

And they watched exactly what I tried to do so terribly and artfully.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah, it's great to be here. Thanks for having me on.

Well, the biggest thing, I don't think we should be sucked into an extended play conversation about a CR. That's just a starting point. So that's my way of saying I'm not going to directly answer all different aspects of that question. The going forward part is what should we do differently is more interesting to me. We need to directly confront Donald Trump in a consistent, aggressive way.

I think that needs to happen. I totally disagree with James Carville's take. I understand what he's saying. He's saying, let the Republicans fail. Let it be clear to everyone that they're the ones who failed. That's not the world we're living in today. Today is a 24-7 messaging battle for attention.

And I've been doing it in a way I've never done it before, do a lot of my own videos, go on media. I think we have to point out that Donald Trump is attempting an authoritarian takeover of our government. To the extent that people don't agree with us on that, we have to convince them. Now we also have to work on other issues. So I think the notion that we need to be more aggressive is correct.

I think the idea that Democrats haven't always picked the best leaders is correct. I mean, you and I started talking when I was trying to get Joe Biden out of the race. It still is flabbergasting to me that anybody, much less a significant group of people, thought that an 82-year-old Joe Biden was an effective messenger for us. And I have respect for the man's career.

I have respect for a lot of things he did as president. But you could see him from four years ago. And even if he was doing a good job as president, you could know that he wasn't going to be the effective candidate we need. So I think we do have a hard time making those judgments. Also, I have clashed with Chuck Schumer before. Details of that story aren't worth getting into. So I kind of see that.
