And Vance is now tacking a bit away from cultural heroin. And instead he's saying, well, look, the really awful stuff that we all hate is 5% of his rallies. And the other 95% is policy.

And it's also the wrong analysis because Trump's policies were inextricable from his vitriol and hatred against When Vance said in that little clip that Trump was talking about what's wrong with your community and I'm going to fix it.

I tried many times. I was in touch with his press secretary. But whenever I asked for an interview, I got no response. And when I sent a list of questions that I thought he would be interested in discussing, mostly about his ideas and where they come from, I got no answer. So to me, that was the answer. They didn't want to talk to me.
