I'm working in like the 42 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:30,640 Speaker 7: affordability space. It's almost too on point because I'm working 43 00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:33,919 Speaker 7: in eviction prevention, which is the most stressful job I've 44 00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:35,680 Speaker 7: ever had in my life, because every day is like 45 00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:36,560 Speaker 7: the fourth quarter. 46 00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:40,320 Speaker 8: There's no there's no just like all right, what's going 47 00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:44,360 Speaker 8: on today?

But it's like I'm 54 00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:15,079 Speaker 7: making the case, and I just it's fascinating to see 55 00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:18,800 Speaker 7: people who didn't know me, you know, an hour ago, 56 00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:22,560 Speaker 7: all of a sudden going like huh, like now I 57 00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:24,360 Speaker 7: have to now I have to consider this person that 58 00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:27,160 Speaker 7: I didn't know other than like there's a comedian running. 59 00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:29,960 Speaker 3: Now I have to seriously consider this person. 60 00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:32,440 Speaker 7: And and people have come up to me at events 61 00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:34,920 Speaker 7: and said things like this is like the best compliment. 62 00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:38,200 Speaker 7: And also the problem I'm dealing with, which is if 63 00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:40,480 Speaker 7: this were a six month race, I think you could, 64 00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:43,480 Speaker 7: you could do it. And then I say to people, 65 00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 7: I'm like, well, it's two months and that's up to 66 00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:49,600 Speaker 7: you now, right, Like now it's up to you if 67 00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:53,680 Speaker 7: you see that. And there's an element of people worried 68 00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:57,280 Speaker 7: about wasting their vote obviously, right, And I get that. 69 00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:00,440 Speaker 7: I'm a very practical I'm a practical vote, but I 70 00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:03,240 Speaker 7: also believe, you know, the primary is it's not time 71 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:06,400 Speaker 7: to waste your vote, but it's a time to take chances. 72 00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:06,600 Speaker 3: With your vote. 73 00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 7: Yes, if you feel a gut feeling for somebody and 74 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:12,040 Speaker 7: they've shown you enough. And that's that's what I try 75 00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 7: to show people in these whether it's you know, the 76 00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:16,359 Speaker 7: longer the meet and greet, the better I do. Like, 77 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:20,040 Speaker 7: the longer the event, the more people I kind of 78 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:24,280 Speaker 7: win over. But it's the opposite of comedy. The longer 79 00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:28,080 Speaker 7: I talk, the fewer fans show up book. 80 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:32,480 Speaker 3: But it's it's. 81 00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:39,200 Speaker 7: Like it's just I see, I see it working, and 82 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:42,400 Speaker 7: it's it's it's literally like one of those things where 83 00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:44,640 Speaker 7: this could be one of those you know, oh he 84 00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:48,080 Speaker 7: won rounds ten, eleven, and twelve, but he lost rounds 85 00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:51,000 Speaker 7: one through nine, So had it been a fifteen round fight, 86 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:54,160 Speaker 7: he would have knocked him out. But I just there 87 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:58,040 Speaker 7: is there's so such a need right now. And I 88 00:04:58,200 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 7: always say this to you. I go, I'm not the one, 89 00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:03,560 Speaker 7: but I could be one of the people who helped 90 00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:05,040 Speaker 7: the Democratic Party. 91 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:08,479 Speaker 3: Right, you know, it's it's I'm running into that. 92 00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:12,719 Speaker 7: God if John Stewart would run right, John Stewart isn't 93 00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:15,680 Speaker 7: running right. And I went to law school also, I've 94 00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 7: been and the idea of like having twenty years as 95 00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:22,440 Speaker 7: a comedian, like it doesn't work against John Stewart. Yeah, 96 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:25,039 Speaker 7: like like he reaches the level of like, oh yeah, 97 00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:27,080 Speaker 7: he's a comedian, but you know he's like a super 98 00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:27,919 Speaker 7: famous comedian. 99 00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:30,040 Speaker 3: That's that's that. 100 00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:34,640 Speaker 7: Means he's better at being a politician, right, a lawyer 101 00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:38,040 Speaker 7: and a comic, and that's not as good. 102 00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:38,839 Speaker 5: It's weird. 103 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:41,839 Speaker 4: I saw today before we hit the air that people 104 00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:45,600 Speaker 4: were circulating a clip on social of someone asked John 105 00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:48,159 Speaker 4: Stewart about running for president. He spent two minutes dodging 106 00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:51,560 Speaker 4: the question, which typically means that that person's thinking about 107 00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:56,800 Speaker 4: running for president. And part of me was like, ultimately, 108 00:05:56,839 --> 00:05:59,359 Speaker 4: if that were to come to pass, that means we've 109 00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 4: lost something, like because he was a principal man who 110 00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:07,000 Speaker 4: was like, I won't do that ever. I think you 111 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:10,719 Speaker 4: guys should find serious politicians who can do this. But 112 00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:13,080 Speaker 4: I was thinking about it in relation to you as well, 113 00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 4: like I think it's an admission that we've lost something, 114 00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:17,920 Speaker 4: but it's not coming back. 115 00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:21,520 Speaker 5: So like the idea of chasing. 116 00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 4: That norm that standard, like only a career politician will 117 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,839 Speaker 4: ever be able to. It may be time to pick 118 00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:30,919 Speaker 4: up the arms, you know, on the other side of 119 00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:33,919 Speaker 4: the race and be like man we got some popular, reasoned, 120 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:37,440 Speaker 4: thoughtful people that also would take the job. 121 00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:38,560 Speaker 5: Seriously and could do it. 122 00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:43,039 Speaker 4: If we're on the other side watching celebrities run for 123 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:45,719 Speaker 4: offices they shouldn't hold, you know, like every week I 124 00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:49,760 Speaker 4: feel like I'll see another Republican celebrity floating like oh, 125 00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:53,120 Speaker 4: doctor Oz, doctor Phil, a kid rock or whatever, and 126 00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:55,440 Speaker 4: I'm like, Okay, but you look up and some of 127 00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:56,080 Speaker 4: these people are. 128 00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:57,640 Speaker 5: Either winning or having competitive races. 129 00:06:57,680 --> 00:07:01,479 Speaker 4: Maybe we gotta stop pining for the old days and 130 00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:05,000 Speaker 4: look for something new. I'm not saying John Stewart would 131 00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:07,400 Speaker 4: match all my politics to be, but if he's the 132 00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:09,960 Speaker 4: guy that can bridge the gap and get some of 133 00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:13,240 Speaker 4: these people off their off their asses, then we love 134 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:13,680 Speaker 4: to see it. 135 00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 5: So like being an orthodox. 136 00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:19,080 Speaker 4: Candidate, is that a question you're getting a lot like 137 00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:23,280 Speaker 4: why should I vote for a comedian or whatever it's. 138 00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:24,680 Speaker 3: It is it is? 139 00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:28,560 Speaker 7: And then there is that element of lowered expectations a 140 00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:32,800 Speaker 7: little bit where then it's oh, man, he's like thoughtful 141 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:36,240 Speaker 7: and has this like strong right, Oh I said, if 142 00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:39,280 Speaker 7: I told you that I went to Williams College, Georgetown 143 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:42,640 Speaker 7: Law School, and I work as a tenants rights lawyer. 144 00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:46,840 Speaker 7: In a time when affordability and housing are like crucial issues. 145 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:50,640 Speaker 7: Wouldn't you just say, well that that dude.

And you know, it's 173 00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:15,960 Speaker 4: when you look back and see like Reagan was an 174 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:18,240 Speaker 4: actor and stuff like, it's we we've. 175 00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:20,960 Speaker 5: Always kind of yeah, we've always kind of flirted with 176 00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:21,520 Speaker 5: that idea. 177 00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:24,120 Speaker 4: So I mean, I think you'd like to see it 178 00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:26,720 Speaker 4: work for more than just conservatives. You know, I know 179 00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:29,600 Speaker 4: we had was it like our Michael No, not Al Michael, 180 00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:34,480 Speaker 4: our uh Ol Franken was for a while. So I 181 00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:36,439 Speaker 4: mean I think, you know, I just think it's nothing 182 00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:37,760 Speaker 4: but good things to come of it. 183 00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:41,960 Speaker 7: Knowing JL skill, Like that's what I try to tell 184 00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:45,200 Speaker 7: people is that it's a skill. It's I used this 185 00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:47,760 Speaker 7: the first the first event we ever had. I said, 186 00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:49,480 Speaker 7: you know, the guy sitting next to me was a 187 00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:54,199 Speaker 7: former Army paratrooper. And I said, the reason he mentions 188 00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:56,480 Speaker 7: that is not because he's going to jump out of 189 00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:59,080 Speaker 7: all an airplane and land in the Capitol to make 190 00:09:59,120 --> 00:09:59,640 Speaker 7: a vote. 191 00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:01,280 Speaker 3: He's doing it. 192 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:05,280 Speaker 7: To say I've got courage, I've got leadership skills. I've 193 00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:10,040 Speaker 7: got teamwork skills. I'm patriotic, like he's saying, that's representative 194 00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:12,000 Speaker 7: of who he is and why you can trust him. 195 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:15,440 Speaker 7: I'm not telling you I'm a comedian so that you'll laugh. 196 00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:18,680 Speaker 7: I'm telling you, look where we keep losing and the 197 00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:21,120 Speaker 7: biggest and this you'll like this. Both of you are 198 00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:23,880 Speaker 7: like this because the thing I keep saying that resonates, 199 00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:26,960 Speaker 7: especially when you're talking about these like hardcore primary voters 200 00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:28,840 Speaker 7: who are like going to the meetings and going to 201 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:29,400 Speaker 7: the events. 202 00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:32,080 Speaker 3: I said. The two things I said to him was, 203 00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:34,200 Speaker 3: you guys are very focused, and that's great. 204 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:37,480 Speaker 7: You need a candidate who will win the people out 205 00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:39,120 Speaker 7: there who are focused. 206 00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:39,640 Speaker 2: Yes. 207 00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:41,680 Speaker 7: And I said the other thing. The other line I 208 00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:43,720 Speaker 7: tell people a lot is I'm the only guy who 209 00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:47,280 Speaker 7: brings up Joe Biden and people aren't trashing him. A 210 00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:49,600 Speaker 7: few people say the Democrats failed us and we need 211 00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:54,320 Speaker 7: new Democrats, and I go, what Joe Biden did is 212 00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:57,199 Speaker 7: what we always do as a party. We had Obamacare, 213 00:10:57,320 --> 00:10:59,839 Speaker 7: we ran from it, we waited ten years and then 214 00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:03,160 Speaker 7: and everybody realized they liked it. We defended it, but 215 00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:07,439 Speaker 7: we lost. In the meantime, Joe Biden had an incredibly consequential, 216 00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:12,960 Speaker 7: strong first term. I saw the debate. I'm not blind, 217 00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:16,080 Speaker 7: but we never even gave that man a victory lamp 218 00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:20,800 Speaker 7: for some big victories. And I said, I'm the guy 219 00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:25,040 Speaker 7: who will call Magot a task like nobody else and 220 00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:27,280 Speaker 7: get out of here with George Conway running for as 221 00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:31,319 Speaker 7: a Democrat, and that when he's like, I bet Trump 222 00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:34,840 Speaker 7: better than anybody, and now I'm a Democrat and I'm like, 223 00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:38,280 Speaker 7: I never helped him get in office. 224 00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:43,360 Speaker 3: In my favorite but. 225 00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:44,720 Speaker 7: I say to people, I say I will be the 226 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:47,920 Speaker 7: one who can hold the other side accountable because I 227 00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:49,800 Speaker 7: got no dog in their fight. I don't need to 228 00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:51,960 Speaker 7: be their friend. I don't need to be. If they 229 00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:54,480 Speaker 7: want to work with me, I'll work with them on 230 00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:56,600 Speaker 7: something good. But I don't need These are not going 231 00:11:56,679 --> 00:12:00,280 Speaker 7: to be my friends. I remember what they did he 232 00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:03,480 Speaker 7: and I will always remember. I don't know them from 233 00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:05,480 Speaker 7: two thousand and nine, where I gotta be like, hey, 234 00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:07,960 Speaker 7: we're done with that Trump shit, right, Okay, we can 235 00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:10,400 Speaker 7: be friends again. I don't know these people, so I 236 00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:13,440 Speaker 7: can hold them to task with both the skill and 237 00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:13,959 Speaker 7: the I. 238 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:17,120 Speaker 2: Don't know these people, and I don't know a lot 239 00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:21,600 Speaker 2: of Democrats can't right, But then I believe in the 240 00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:24,880 Speaker 2: Democratic Party and I want to make the case. 241 00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:26,880 Speaker 7: I'm not saying everybody has to agree with me, but 242 00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:28,560 Speaker 7: I want to be able to make the case when 243 00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:32,000 Speaker 7: we do something big that we don't squander it. And 244 00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:35,520 Speaker 7: that's even the communication and the engagement comes from where 245 00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:38,679 Speaker 7: I'm not going to be like, guys, uh, you know, 246 00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:41,440 Speaker 7: biggest climate bill ever, it'll take some time. 247 00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:45,560 Speaker 3: I know we're hurting, and the biggest climate bill ever? 248 00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:50,160 Speaker 3: Where are you, Greta Thunberg, get on this stage? 249 00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:55,839 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, and I'm with you, Jail. 250 00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:59,080 Speaker 9: It's one of those things that Rider really frustrates me 251 00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:03,440 Speaker 9: because they you a lot of things, and people don't 252 00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:06,200 Speaker 9: realize how much shit they do until they start taking 253 00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:08,320 Speaker 9: the shit away. Oh they did that, they did that. 254 00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:10,640 Speaker 9: Oh I get a tax credit for this. Oh my 255 00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:12,920 Speaker 9: kids get assistance for this. Like yeah, it's been there 256 00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:15,719 Speaker 9: the whole time. And like you said, because they went 257 00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:19,720 Speaker 9: in so so it's like we accomplished something. 258 00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:21,760 Speaker 1: And instead of beating the drums to be like the demo, 259 00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:23,120 Speaker 1: the Republicans. 260 00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:24,160 Speaker 9: Want to take this away from you, like you say, 261 00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:29,600 Speaker 9: it's that soft, kind gentle thing. No, you accomplish something great, 262 00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:32,040 Speaker 9: be proud and loud, because they are all the time. 263 00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:34,640 Speaker 9: They passed all types of fucked up bills that will 264 00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:36,920 Speaker 9: come and look you in your face and be like, yeah, bitch, 265 00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:39,760 Speaker 9: you're about to lose your health cam fuck you and 266 00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:40,920 Speaker 9: go on about that way. 267 00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:42,560 Speaker 1: Why can't we do the same thing. 268 00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:45,840 Speaker 4: Elon Musk got that chainsaw on stage. I'll never forget that, man. 269 00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:46,560 Speaker 5: I think. 270 00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:53,720 Speaker 4: Also, there's like this thing where uh, Democrats will often 271 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:58,240 Speaker 4: run on this idea of like power is almost bad, 272 00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:00,520 Speaker 4: like having it, but it's like once you have it, 273 00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:03,200 Speaker 4: we want you to do the things he promised to 274 00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:03,880 Speaker 4: do right. 275 00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:06,680 Speaker 5: And I remember when Obama won in two. 276 00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:09,360 Speaker 4: Thousand and eight and he essentially had like this majority, 277 00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:13,640 Speaker 4: and I remember being like excited, like, Okay, we're gonna 278 00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:16,520 Speaker 4: finally get some things. And of course that's when Republicans 279 00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:20,640 Speaker 4: became the most obstructionist ever. But still he did exhaust 280 00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:22,960 Speaker 4: that good will on good things, like you don't get 281 00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:26,480 Speaker 4: universal health care without him pushing that shit through. But 282 00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:30,040 Speaker 4: I remember the twenty ten, the off cycle election. After that, 283 00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:33,800 Speaker 4: so many Democrats ran away from Obama because it was like, oh, 284 00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:36,960 Speaker 4: he's not as popular as he once was. Oh man, 285 00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:40,680 Speaker 4: you know, he's not getting everything passed exactly. And what 286 00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:45,480 Speaker 4: I thought was interesting about that time was they would 287 00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:48,600 Speaker 4: be like, he's unpopular, but he was still at that 288 00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:52,920 Speaker 4: time the most popular politician in America. So like they 289 00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:55,920 Speaker 4: were saying like, oh, his popularity went from say sixty 290 00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:59,440 Speaker 4: percent approval of fifty five or forty five or something. 291 00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:01,920 Speaker 4: And then and they're like, well, I can't be running 292 00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:05,320 Speaker 4: hugging him, you know when I'm running for office, ma'am, 293 00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:07,880 Speaker 4: your your your shit is like twenty five percent, like 294 00:15:07,920 --> 00:15:10,840 Speaker 4: Congress is below his. And so there is like this 295 00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:15,120 Speaker 4: sort of pride that isn't there as you're making the changes. 296 00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:17,120 Speaker 4: You shouldn't have to go out and feel a shame 297 00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:20,000 Speaker 4: that you pass Obamacare. You should be going out like, 298 00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:22,640 Speaker 4: yeah we did that. We get even more if we 299 00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:24,920 Speaker 4: got more people like me up there, let's go, let's 300 00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:28,200 Speaker 4: run it back. And So I think one thing that 301 00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:31,000 Speaker 4: we all all on this side of the out I 302 00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:32,800 Speaker 4: think can agree on. It might be the only thing 303 00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:35,560 Speaker 4: we can all agree on, is we want fighters. Yeah, 304 00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:38,400 Speaker 4: we want people that are gonna go up there and 305 00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:42,160 Speaker 4: proudly fight for the platforms they ran on. 306 00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:48,640 Speaker 3: Right, Trump fights for himself. Yeah, that's what's so fucked 307 00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:49,400 Speaker 3: up about that? 308 00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:52,000 Speaker 7: And I'll admit I still think that was a good, 309 00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:56,960 Speaker 7: ad vicious, gross hateful. I still do believe for this country, 310 00:15:57,680 --> 00:16:01,760 Speaker 7: kammalas for they them, Trump is for you you. The 311 00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:03,920 Speaker 7: only problem with it is the thing is a complete 312 00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:09,000 Speaker 7: fucking lie. Like rhetorically it works as a as a 313 00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:12,400 Speaker 7: as a clever turn of phrase, but it's a complete lie. 314 00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:13,520 Speaker 3: And when you. 315 00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:21,200 Speaker 10: Watch this dude, this good, this good he is for him, 316 00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:25,440 Speaker 10: it couldn't be more obvious.

Basically, we have seventeen days. 364 00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:48,520 Speaker 3: We have a lot of events. 365 00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:51,840 Speaker 7: There's just a lot of different organizations, some like individual 366 00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:55,600 Speaker 7: meet and Greek type stuff. But the mail, the digital ad, 367 00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:59,480 Speaker 7: and then there's just people spreading the word. It's it's 368 00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:04,720 Speaker 7: this short time frame was intended to benefit, you know, 369 00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:07,160 Speaker 7: a couple of established candidates. 370 00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:08,160 Speaker 3: And I'm not you know me. 371 00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:13,000 Speaker 7: I'm not the establishment, no not he If the establishment 372 00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:17,320 Speaker 7: is great, then okay, establishment candidate, you get it. But 373 00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:19,960 Speaker 7: the two biggest candidates in this one is kind of 374 00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:22,919 Speaker 7: a machine guy, like a local machine guy, like just 375 00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:26,320 Speaker 7: and and he seems like like when I talk to him, 376 00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:28,280 Speaker 7: he seems like a nice guy. He does have a 377 00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:31,880 Speaker 7: lot of experience in the in the in like the 378 00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:36,080 Speaker 7: political world. But what I've told people is not every 379 00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:40,880 Speaker 7: songwriter is a singer, are like, and songwriting is a 380 00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:44,919 Speaker 7: skill and a talent, but not every song songwriter can 381 00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:48,439 Speaker 7: get the microphone and sing. And I think a congressman 382 00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:51,480 Speaker 7: can be both. You want both. You want a singer songwriter, 383 00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:53,280 Speaker 7: you want I know how how it works, how to 384 00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:56,240 Speaker 7: do it, but I can also convince people. But Democrats 385 00:19:56,320 --> 00:20:01,480 Speaker 7: deficit right now is not enough singers. We have cow 386 00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:06,479 Speaker 7: we have sad, we have sad, half measure songwriters who 387 00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:08,520 Speaker 7: might be very good at their job, but we're not 388 00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:12,119 Speaker 7: selling it. We're not delivering a hit because your vocalist sucks. 389 00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:15,440 Speaker 7: And there's another guy, the guy who seems to be 390 00:20:15,520 --> 00:20:18,080 Speaker 7: leading the case. He used to be a congressman in 391 00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:21,960 Speaker 7: a different district. He's a very sharp guy, very smooth. 392 00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:24,360 Speaker 7: He is what I would call a very good politician. 393 00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:27,080 Speaker 7: My issues with him, and a lot of the issues 394 00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:29,879 Speaker 7: is he doesn't live in the district. He lost an 395 00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:32,720 Speaker 7: election in a nearby district and has basically just come 396 00:20:32,760 --> 00:20:36,800 Speaker 7: here because it's a safer district. When you're telling me 397 00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:41,520 Speaker 7: you're going to fight Donald Trump, and you're not ripping 398 00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:45,199 Speaker 7: your seat back from a Republican that's winnable. You know 399 00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:49,400 Speaker 7: rhetorically that there's a little disconnect there. And he had 400 00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:52,720 Speaker 7: an he had a stock trading investigation the last time 401 00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:55,960 Speaker 7: he was in Congress.

We've allowed 521 00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:04,640 Speaker 7: Republicans to frame this, and we've allowed sort of cynical 522 00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:08,000 Speaker 7: people to piggyback on that, so that we're always in 523 00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:12,879 Speaker 7: a state of like apologizing for being the party that 524 00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:16,040 Speaker 7: cares about people because sometimes we didn't care in the 525 00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:19,199 Speaker 7: right way, or we didn't do this, we didn't go 526 00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:21,640 Speaker 7: far enough, or we were wrong, God forbid, we were 527 00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:22,720 Speaker 7: wrong on something. 528 00:27:23,040 --> 00:27:25,800 Speaker 11: And then it's like, well, the Democrats are done, And 529 00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:28,800 Speaker 11: so I balance it by kind of being the only 530 00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:33,399 Speaker 11: person who affirmatively just says we've done great things, Like 531 00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:37,560 Speaker 11: the last one hundred years is a legacy of Democrats, 532 00:27:37,960 --> 00:27:42,359 Speaker 11: with Democrat presidents, with large Democratic majorities, doing great things 533 00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:42,919 Speaker 11: for people. 534 00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:46,560 Speaker 7: That's the Democratic Party legacy. The big story you'll tell 535 00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:50,000 Speaker 7: about the Democrats. The big story for Republicans is they 536 00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:55,119 Speaker 7: hate government. They've elected three of the weakest qualified people 537 00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:58,960 Speaker 7: in my lifetime, and at least Reagan and Bush were 538 00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:02,320 Speaker 7: they shs. They qualified, they were both governors, they both 539 00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:05,280 Speaker 7: were in politics, they both knew how to run things. 540 00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:07,360 Speaker 3: They were both bad presidents. 541 00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:11,800 Speaker 7: And then we got Trump, who's so much worse, and 542 00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:14,800 Speaker 7: we've allowed them to just be in. 543 00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:18,840 Speaker 3: Control of the narrative. And and I'm I'm rambling. 544 00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:22,280 Speaker 7: I apologize, but basically I just tell people, you know, 545 00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:25,400 Speaker 7: the way I go about making the case of we 546 00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:28,720 Speaker 7: need a better communicator, I'll point out a few things 547 00:28:28,720 --> 00:28:31,040 Speaker 7: that I think we should be doing that we're not doing, 548 00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:33,240 Speaker 7: but that at the end of the day, I'm a 549 00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:37,080 Speaker 7: diehard Democrat who thinks I can deliver and engage more 550 00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:38,920 Speaker 7: people than the people on this stage. 551 00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:42,360 Speaker 5: So you're just not going out there roasting the other 552 00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:50,560 Speaker 5: people like this, this motherfucker right here a criminal taking work. 553 00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:54,040 Speaker 7: Yet I'm I'm ready. I'm I'm sort of ready to 554 00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:56,520 Speaker 7: do that. But some of the events we have, it'll 555 00:28:56,560 --> 00:29:00,000 Speaker 7: be like, like there's an LGBTQ, a big LGBTQ event, 556 00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:02,600 Speaker 7: like in a week, and that will be a weird one. 557 00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:07,440 Speaker 7: If I'm like, and this guy is a piece of shit, 558 00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:12,959 Speaker 7: But how I will help your community. But the argument 559 00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:15,080 Speaker 7: I make to some of the groups that I'm not 560 00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:20,440 Speaker 7: a member of is like, who's going to be your 561 00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:24,040 Speaker 7: most effective voice? Like the people come up and it's 562 00:29:24,040 --> 00:29:26,160 Speaker 7: always like I told people during the thing, I said, 563 00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:27,120 Speaker 7: my father is Haitian. 564 00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:29,280 Speaker 3: My father was Haitian. He was a Green card holder. 565 00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:32,400 Speaker 3: Never says it. You don't think you don't think that. 566 00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:35,320 Speaker 7: It feels a little extra sting when I see Trump's 567 00:29:35,360 --> 00:29:39,120 Speaker 7: like racism and xenophobia being laser focused on the poorest 568 00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:42,320 Speaker 7: country in the Western Hemisphere, Like, but I'm not going 569 00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:45,640 Speaker 7: to spend five minutes giving you like this is why 570 00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:47,800 Speaker 7: that you do the math. And I've said this to people, 571 00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:50,640 Speaker 7: I said, I have to tell you, but if you 572 00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:53,840 Speaker 7: wonder who's taking this most personally, if that's something you're 573 00:29:53,840 --> 00:29:56,960 Speaker 7: concerned about, because everybody's like my fifth cousin's college roommate 574 00:29:57,360 --> 00:29:59,400 Speaker 7: was bisexual. 575 00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:01,920 Speaker 3: So the LGBTQ. 576 00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:04,440 Speaker 7: Community is near and dear to my heart. It's like 577 00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:07,400 Speaker 7: the stop stop. But I tell them just to say, 578 00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:09,520 Speaker 7: I don't mean to lament this. You do the math. 579 00:30:10,040 --> 00:30:12,600 Speaker 7: My father was an immigrant to this country from Haiti, 580 00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:15,160 Speaker 7: never never became a citizen, was a Green card holder. 581 00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:18,560 Speaker 7: You don't think I care about how vulnerable my father 582 00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:21,200 Speaker 7: would have been under Trump, right, how he would have 583 00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:23,680 Speaker 7: just picked on him for no fucking reason. But I'm 584 00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:25,920 Speaker 7: not gonna waste all my like now you know that 585 00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:28,200 Speaker 7: about me. I don't need to go into a drama, 586 00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:32,719 Speaker 7: a dramatization. And I think some people probably appreciate that that. 587 00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:35,560 Speaker 5: I'm sure they get back. I'm sure they do. 588 00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:38,160 Speaker 4: I think also, we're so used to politicians speak at 589 00:30:38,160 --> 00:30:41,880 Speaker 4: this point. Yeah, yeah, yeah, somebody something that me either 590 00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:43,960 Speaker 4: I'm a son of a sharecropper. 591 00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:45,080 Speaker 1: Or whatever, because that that's kind of thing. 592 00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:46,600 Speaker 5: People appreciate being talked too. 593 00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:49,480 Speaker 9: Real. They've been taught and they've been chained. I'm training. 594 00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:51,160 Speaker 9: I want to go back to what Ja was saying. 595 00:30:51,720 --> 00:30:54,120 Speaker 9: I agree with you when you talk about a lot 596 00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:58,520 Speaker 9: of the Democratic side who just complain, complaining, complaining, and 597 00:30:58,560 --> 00:31:00,560 Speaker 9: the thing is really scary about them, A lot of 598 00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:03,280 Speaker 9: their lives start from Republicans and they roll on that, 599 00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:07,000 Speaker 9: like I have a major major issue when something breaks 600 00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:09,680 Speaker 9: on the Republican side and people haven't done their research 601 00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:11,600 Speaker 9: and they haven't found out anything, and next thing you know, 602 00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:14,680 Speaker 9: it's rumblings on our side. And also, I think that 603 00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:19,640 Speaker 9: if Democrats were much much, much, much louder the people 604 00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:22,520 Speaker 9: that would constantly complain about how they did nothing. You 605 00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:25,240 Speaker 9: would be having more people more educated to fight against that, 606 00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:27,719 Speaker 9: because I think a lot of people don't fight against 607 00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:30,120 Speaker 9: that because they're not actually looking for it, and the 608 00:31:30,160 --> 00:31:33,280 Speaker 9: Democrats aren't beating their chest and putting it on posters 609 00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:37,160 Speaker 9: and putting on billboards and running commercials and buying ads 610 00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:40,080 Speaker 9: talking about the shit they done. So it makes those 611 00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:42,960 Speaker 9: people sound more intelligent than they are when they consistently 612 00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:44,440 Speaker 9: complain about how nothing's been done. 613 00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:46,560 Speaker 1: It's like, no, it's a lot of shit to been done. 614 00:31:46,640 --> 00:31:49,800 Speaker 9: And then people who actually don't really know but know 615 00:31:49,960 --> 00:31:52,320 Speaker 9: the Democrats has done something, you know, like they're in 616 00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:54,320 Speaker 9: the loop, but they might not be one hundred percent 617 00:31:54,360 --> 00:31:55,920 Speaker 9: in the loop because they got a second job or 618 00:31:55,960 --> 00:31:56,760 Speaker 9: whatever the case may be. 619 00:31:57,160 --> 00:31:58,640 Speaker 1: They would, in my opinion. 620 00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:01,920 Speaker 9: They would have more amien nition to fight against these people, 621 00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:04,760 Speaker 9: and those people won't be surprised when shit just gets 622 00:32:04,760 --> 00:32:07,880 Speaker 9: slice cut, slice cut, slice cut, because they didn't even 623 00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:08,640 Speaker 9: know it existed. 624 00:32:09,560 --> 00:32:14,760 Speaker 5: Jael, what is the plan if you win or lose? 625 00:32:14,920 --> 00:32:18,440 Speaker 4: Like, is there is there a next step after?
