But he's acknowledged that as well.
And it was, as you said, like the one moment where he didn't communicate as clearly as he usually does.
People shouldn't be scared to come on.
That happens.
I think it was good, actually, for him.
I thought so, too.
Here's the problem with that.
I'm going to name names here now.
I thought it was unfortunate that people like Senator Gillibrand from New York and other Democrats
used that one moment to kind of cast this one blanket on Zawahir Namdani and conveniently kind of attack him instead of attacking the American foreign policy that made it possible for billions of dollars in American resources to go towards the starvation of communities, the bombing of children, bombing of hospitals, and a set of measures that made, I thought, Israel less safe and was responsible for eradicating Palestinian populations.
So instead of focusing on the policy, folks started parsing Zorin Mamdani's language because that was easier and convenient.
Or barely even parsing, misconstruing.
Thank you.
I don't think she even listened to the interview, basically, based on how she described what he said.
Again, I kept telling him because people kept asking me about it.
I could be like, it was a bad answer.
And by the way, Brad Lander had been given the same question a week before and gave an answer really that was really eloquent.
So, like, he probably should have been able to answer it because he just heard Brad Lander on the same stage give, like, the answer basically you just gave about how the second one was horrible.
You know what I mean?
And that's why he doesn't use it.
