It's the same as the radio show. We're 8 00:00:18,120 --> 00:00:21,560 Speaker 2: going to get right to it here. Tanya sigonofski am 9 00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:25,239 Speaker 2: I saying that right, great, Yeah, I'm Polish, so I'm 10 00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:28,160 Speaker 2: I think you're Polish too, based on this. 11 00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:30,800 Speaker 3: Dame Russian or Russian Ukrainian Ukrainian. 12 00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:34,960 Speaker 2: Close enough, we're cousins. She's an out and proud lesbian 13 00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:38,479 Speaker 2: who voted for Donald Trump and told her friends about it, 14 00:00:38,560 --> 00:00:41,479 Speaker 2: and now she's been locked out of most of her 15 00:00:41,479 --> 00:00:46,160 Speaker 2: friend groups and she's going public with what it's been 16 00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:49,960 Speaker 2: like for her. We just played the little two minute 17 00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:54,040 Speaker 2: story that Fox eleven did on you right before the news. 18 00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:56,880 Speaker 2: When did you decide you were going to tell people 19 00:00:56,920 --> 00:00:59,440 Speaker 2: you're voting for Trump because your recent voting history was 20 00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:04,040 Speaker 2: Hillary and twenty sixteen Biden in twenty twenty And is 21 00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:07,560 Speaker 2: this something that you and your friends always talked about 22 00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:10,480 Speaker 2: and there was a day that you had to say, hey, 23 00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:12,000 Speaker 2: I'm switching sides. 24 00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:17,120 Speaker 4: No, it was more of me watching everything happened on 25 00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:20,280 Speaker 4: campuses over the last year. You know, in my friend groups, 26 00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:22,560 Speaker 4: based on my voting history, based on what I look like, 27 00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:27,040 Speaker 4: based on my gender and sexuality, people assume that I 28 00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:30,600 Speaker 4: am always going to be blue. So the conversation about 29 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:32,880 Speaker 4: who I'm going to vote for wasn't actually a question. 30 00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:36,800 Speaker 4: The assumption was always there. But after watching what was 31 00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:39,960 Speaker 4: going on on campus and how the Biden administration did 32 00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:43,800 Speaker 4: nothing to prevent students from Jewish students from attending their classes, 33 00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:47,560 Speaker 4: I realized that I am doing a disservice to my 34 00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:51,160 Speaker 4: Jewish identity if I continue to vote blue. And so 35 00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:55,720 Speaker 4: it's been festering all year. I have been very very 36 00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:59,720 Speaker 4: vocal about being a Zionist, which has already alienated me 37 00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:03,960 Speaker 4: from queer spaces because at this point, especially in La 38 00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:08,200 Speaker 4: Queers for Palestine seems to have taken over every part 39 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:11,320 Speaker 4: of queer life. So I've already felt like I didn't 40 00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:14,280 Speaker 4: have a space, and with the election coming up, I 41 00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:17,120 Speaker 4: knew that I needed to start using my voice for 42 00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:19,960 Speaker 4: my people, my Jewish people, because as much as I 43 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:22,040 Speaker 4: am a woman, and I am a lesbian. I am 44 00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:24,840 Speaker 4: a Jew first. I don't think I'll have the luxury 45 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:28,600 Speaker 4: to live a free gay life if all of a 46 00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:32,240 Speaker 4: sudden Jews are no longer allowed to be in this country. 47 00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:34,560 Speaker 4: And I feel like I fear that that was the 48 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:38,519 Speaker 4: direction that we were headed, because ten years before the Holocaust, 49 00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:41,639 Speaker 4: students were getting blocked from campuses in Germany. So to 50 00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:45,000 Speaker 4: witness that here and to come from a family of 51 00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:50,000 Speaker 4: you know, Soviet refugees, who has lost so many of 52 00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:53,040 Speaker 4: our family in the Holocaust, you know, I was raised right. 53 00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:55,280 Speaker 4: I owe it to my parents to stand up for 54 00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:58,960 Speaker 4: my Jewish heritage and Jewish identity, and I love Israel. 55 00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:03,320 Speaker 4: So I decided I needed to be honest about my 56 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:07,040 Speaker 4: vote because I really genuinely believe that my vote will 57 00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:08,360 Speaker 4: protect Jews in Israel. 58 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:09,079 Speaker 3: And so that's what I do. 59 00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:11,280 Speaker 2: No I can identify with this, I mean not only 60 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:14,160 Speaker 2: our ancestors from the same part of the world. My 61 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:18,200 Speaker 2: dad was at age fourteen captured from his parents' home 62 00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:22,800 Speaker 2: and taken to Ashwitz. They thought he was Jewish, and 63 00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 2: they had a committee decided, ultimately by a two to 64 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:28,240 Speaker 2: one vote, that he was not Jewish, and he wasn't 65 00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:30,840 Speaker 2: he was Catholic, But had they voted the other way, 66 00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:33,320 Speaker 2: I wouldn't be here, I wouldn't exist. So I've always 67 00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:38,000 Speaker 2: been very sensitive too. And I know about Hamas, I 68 00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:40,440 Speaker 2: know what's in the charter, and I had been telling 69 00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:43,720 Speaker 2: people it's like, there is no different in the no 70 00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:47,520 Speaker 2: difference in the goals of Hamas and the other terrorist 71 00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 2: groups and the goals of Nazi Germany. It's exactly the same. 72 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:55,040 Speaker 1: And why is it that so many in your community 73 00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:56,320 Speaker 1: can't grasp that. 74 00:03:57,200 --> 00:04:00,320 Speaker 4: I think that Israel comes off as powerful. I think 75 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:03,840 Speaker 4: Israel comes off as white. People assume that Israelis are 76 00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:04,400 Speaker 4: white people. 77 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:04,960 Speaker 3: They're not. 78 00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:08,720 Speaker 4: We chewse our a tiny fraction of this world. There's 79 00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:12,760 Speaker 4: fifteen million of us. And I think that because we're 80 00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:16,280 Speaker 4: such strong allies with America, I mean, Israel is such 81 00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:18,640 Speaker 4: strong allies with America, they assume that we are just 82 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:24,800 Speaker 4: some bombastic bully. You know, there's all of these smear 83 00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:27,360 Speaker 4: campaigns that Jews run Hollywood. I'm not really sure how 84 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:30,720 Speaker 4: we do that if we're constantly being told terrible, but 85 00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:32,880 Speaker 4: I just feel like, I'm sorry, go ahead. 86 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:37,839 Speaker 2: I mean, that's such a superficial reaction that they have. 87 00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:41,200 Speaker 2: I mean, they don't really at least debate this to 88 00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:42,240 Speaker 2: a deeper level. 89 00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:46,560 Speaker 4: No, there's no, there hasn't been room for conversation. That 90 00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:49,080 Speaker 4: was one of the main reasons I decided to be public, 91 00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:51,359 Speaker 4: was to try to bridge the gap. I think a 92 00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:54,560 Speaker 4: lot of people are coming from places of pain and 93 00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:58,200 Speaker 4: fear and ignorance, and so much of that could be 94 00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:00,719 Speaker 4: remedied if we just have the difficult convers stations like 95 00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:02,839 Speaker 4: we're doing right now. Yeah, you know, and I think 96 00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:07,479 Speaker 4: that that's it's unfortunate that so many of my community, 97 00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:09,520 Speaker 4: my queer community, refused to do that. 98 00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:16,000 Speaker 2: And going back to the beginning, so is this just 99 00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:18,320 Speaker 2: came up in casual conversation with people. 100 00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:22,599 Speaker 4: No, essentially, I you know, I utilized my social media 101 00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:25,359 Speaker 4: to be verry outspoken. I went public online that I 102 00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:29,159 Speaker 4: was voting for Trump, and after that, people that I 103 00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:32,920 Speaker 4: knew very well for years started to unfollow me sent 104 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,719 Speaker 4: me messages saying that they no longer want me in 105 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:36,320 Speaker 4: their life. 106 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:41,880 Speaker 2: But you explained the part about the Palestinian demonstrations and 107 00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 2: the Jewish students being blocked. 108 00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:44,839 Speaker 3: And that's what's unfortunate. 109 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:48,360 Speaker 4: Somehow, you know, everyone is trying to say that Trump 110 00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:51,240 Speaker 4: is going to take gay rights away, which is not true. 111 00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:55,440 Speaker 4: But let's hypothetically say that we're true. Let's say marriage 112 00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:59,400 Speaker 4: equality was now on you know, potentially could not happen. 113 00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:02,760 Speaker 4: But I'm also still a Jew, So if I would 114 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:05,560 Speaker 4: be faced with making a vote, I have to choose 115 00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:09,279 Speaker 4: at that point whether I'm going to vote to protect. 116 00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 3: The lesbian in me or the Jew in me. Now, 117 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 3: my priority is to protect the Jew and me. 118 00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:18,520 Speaker 4: Why is that somehow less of an issue than someone 119 00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:22,520 Speaker 4: else voting to protect themselves. I think it's so selfish 120 00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:26,279 Speaker 4: that so many Democrats feel like their own struggle is 121 00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:29,320 Speaker 4: the only one that matters and no one else's does. 122 00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:32,200 Speaker 4: And if someone else does happen to vote for their 123 00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:34,240 Speaker 4: own struggle, they don't want anything to do with you. 124 00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:37,000 Speaker 4: I don't look at someone that voted for Kamala and 125 00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:41,160 Speaker 4: think that they somehow don't care about me or they 126 00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:44,640 Speaker 4: don't want what's best for me. No, they voted for themselves, 127 00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:47,240 Speaker 4: and I respect that. Why don't I get that same 128 00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:50,599 Speaker 4: in return? And so, you know, when Elon Musk retweeted 129 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:52,800 Speaker 4: my story and said that it's a cult, it is. 130 00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:56,640 Speaker 4: It's absolutely become a cult, and it's horrifying and very sad. 131 00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:59,720 Speaker 2: Yeah. And the irony, and this has been pointed out 132 00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:03,120 Speaker 2: many times, is that these are the people who preach diversity, 133 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:07,839 Speaker 2: and they're absolutely intolerant to diversity of thought, diversity of opinion. 134 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:12,520 Speaker 4: Absolutely, And that's that's what's really scary, because at the 135 00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:16,720 Speaker 4: end of the day, politics, laws, everything is ever changing. 136 00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:19,680 Speaker 4: And if you're constantly going to keep preaching the same 137 00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:22,800 Speaker 4: thing that Republicans are evil and everyone else is evil 138 00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:27,440 Speaker 4: and we're right, who says that you're right? You know, 139 00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:30,480 Speaker 4: it's so funny to me, but I you know, I 140 00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:33,040 Speaker 4: live in Studio City, and across from my apartment, which 141 00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:35,640 Speaker 4: costs a good amount of money, there's a homeless encampment 142 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:38,960 Speaker 4: and there was a Trump sign in that homeless encampment. 143 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:42,920 Speaker 4: And so for me, if I think that the most 144 00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:46,280 Speaker 4: like are if the people that have the least in 145 00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:50,640 Speaker 4: this country are now hoping that Trump's president, the Democrats 146 00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:53,320 Speaker 4: have failed the communities that they say that they care 147 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:55,280 Speaker 4: about the most, myself included. 148 00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:01,200 Speaker 2: Have you been surprised, I'm I'm sure you've noticed this 149 00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:05,240 Speaker 2: phenomena for a long time, the group thing phenomena, how 150 00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:08,880 Speaker 2: everybody has the exact same thought says the same things 151 00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:14,320 Speaker 2: on all the same issues. Did you ever were bothered 152 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:18,040 Speaker 2: by this before question it, before discuss these kinds of 153 00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:19,560 Speaker 2: issues with your friends? 154 00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:22,160 Speaker 4: You know, honestly, I feel like I have to take 155 00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:25,920 Speaker 4: responsibility for being the people that would ostracize people like 156 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:28,440 Speaker 4: me now way back when, if you voted for Trump, 157 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:30,240 Speaker 4: I wanted nothing to do with you. I think I 158 00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:34,520 Speaker 4: found posts that I posted back in twenty sixteen saying 159 00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:36,800 Speaker 4: I'm packing my bags, I'm leaving this country. And I 160 00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:40,520 Speaker 4: feel so mortified that that is how I behaved, because 161 00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:44,240 Speaker 4: I missed out on learning so much, And thankfully I've 162 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:47,160 Speaker 4: had so many years of experience and living in different 163 00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:49,880 Speaker 4: places and seeing the world and getting to see the 164 00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:50,559 Speaker 4: privilege of. 165 00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:51,280 Speaker 3: What I have here. 166 00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:54,520 Speaker 4: And I think that so many people here are just 167 00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:58,480 Speaker 4: ignorant of that privilege and just keep on preaching the 168 00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:02,640 Speaker 4: same mantra over and over again, and is divided our 169 00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:06,920 Speaker 4: country in half. And it's so polarizing, you know. And 170 00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:09,880 Speaker 4: I spoke to a colleague who's been a lifelong Republican 171 00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:13,040 Speaker 4: and he said, you know, most of us Republicans are moderate. 172 00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:16,439 Speaker 4: We are not those crazy, evil Nazis that the Democrats 173 00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:18,360 Speaker 4: want to paint us to be.

And the turning point issue 183 00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:46,720 Speaker 2: was the way the Palestinian protest groups treated the Jewish 184 00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:50,320 Speaker 2: students at the universities, and the universities largely allowed it 185 00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:53,480 Speaker 2: to happen, and the kids were blocked from attending class. 186 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:55,760 Speaker 2: You know all that story.

They just stopped talking to her, 201 00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:52,200 Speaker 2: defriended her. The whole routine has Has anybody from that 202 00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:55,640 Speaker 2: group called you and said, secretly, I agree with you, 203 00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:56,720 Speaker 2: I voted for him two. 204 00:10:57,880 --> 00:10:59,960 Speaker 4: I've had a few of those messages, not in particular 205 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:04,160 Speaker 4: from you know, that particular group of people. Thankfully, I've 206 00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:07,960 Speaker 4: had maybe a couple out of forty reach out and say, 207 00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:09,800 Speaker 4: you know, we don't agree with you, but we know 208 00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:11,520 Speaker 4: that you're not a bad person, and we want to 209 00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:13,320 Speaker 4: sit and talk to you. So at least they're willing 210 00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:19,280 Speaker 4: to have those conversations. But I've had many random messages 211 00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:23,080 Speaker 4: from people saying I voted Kamala because I just like 212 00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:25,000 Speaker 4: I just wasn't allowed to vote for Trump, but I'm 213 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:25,760 Speaker 4: so happy he won. 214 00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:29,680 Speaker 3: Or I'm telling me that you know I. 215 00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:33,800 Speaker 4: Voted, but I told people that I voted for Jill Stein, 216 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:36,440 Speaker 4: and I'm just like I to me. 217 00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:37,640 Speaker 3: It's just mind boggling. 218 00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:40,280 Speaker 2: It's it was so weird, is is? Maybe it's the 219 00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:43,640 Speaker 2: way I grew up. It's a private vote. Obviously, you 220 00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:46,720 Speaker 2: don't have to tell anybody anything. Most people that I 221 00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:50,400 Speaker 2: knew pre this era, I never knew how they voted. 222 00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:52,880 Speaker 2: I didn't know if they were Democratic Republican. In the 223 00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:54,800 Speaker 2: last ten years I have found out. 224 00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 1: Everybody's political leanings, and I was like surprised in a 225 00:11:58,160 --> 00:11:58,840 Speaker 1: lot of cases. 226 00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:01,000 Speaker 2: But I kind of liked it the way it used 227 00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:01,240 Speaker 2: to be. 228 00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:03,920 Speaker 4: No, for sure, I mean, but it also speaks to 229 00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:07,360 Speaker 4: social media because you also know everyone's lunch. So at 230 00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:10,600 Speaker 4: this point, yeah, it's not pleasant either, right, I agree 231 00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:13,800 Speaker 4: with that, so I think. But for me, I went 232 00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:16,320 Speaker 4: public because I'm public about everything else, right, And so 233 00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:18,520 Speaker 4: I and I also want a life in politics. I 234 00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:21,520 Speaker 4: do want to effect like meaningful change. I want to 235 00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:24,240 Speaker 4: work in public office. So for me, I feel it's 236 00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:27,160 Speaker 4: my duty to be honest and to let the people 237 00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:30,000 Speaker 4: know how I'm feeling and why I'm voting a certain 238 00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:32,240 Speaker 4: way and what I would ultimately want to do for 239 00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:33,080 Speaker 4: my communities. 240 00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:36,880 Speaker 2: So was that the only issue that led you to 241 00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:40,480 Speaker 2: Trump or were there other policies or things about him 242 00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:43,439 Speaker 2: or the way he handled the first administration that made 243 00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:44,080 Speaker 2: you comfortable. 244 00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:45,640 Speaker 3: No, it's less. 245 00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:48,440 Speaker 4: About how he handled the administration and more about how 246 00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:51,040 Speaker 4: poorly the Democrats have handled this one and how there 247 00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:53,880 Speaker 4: was no promise for what will be different next time. 248 00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:55,760 Speaker 3: And that is a problem. 249 00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:59,320 Speaker 4: If you're constantly running your platform on simply pointing the 250 00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:02,520 Speaker 4: finger on their side, then you're not giving me anything 251 00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:05,200 Speaker 4: to work with with or any assurance that you're going 252 00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:05,960 Speaker 4: to be better for me. 253 00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:09,079 Speaker 3: My family business is in home health care. 254 00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:13,440 Speaker 4: Medicare is not doing well, our border isn't doing well. 255 00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:17,679 Speaker 4: Gas prices are crazy. Now people are telling me, well, 256 00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:20,000 Speaker 4: Trump won't fix that. I'm like, well, I don't think 257 00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:22,480 Speaker 4: there's any evidence to show me that Kamala would have, 258 00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:26,000 Speaker 4: so for me, I just I feel like I would 259 00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:29,160 Speaker 4: rather do something different and go back to the. 260 00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:32,679 Speaker 2: Group think thing we were talking about that you're sup 261 00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:36,359 Speaker 2: because you're a Democrat or a liberal, but you're supposed 262 00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:39,439 Speaker 2: to be in favor of the current border policy when 263 00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:42,640 Speaker 2: it's clearly a disaster. All you need are two eyes 264 00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:46,120 Speaker 2: to say, wow, this is not working out at all, 265 00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:48,840 Speaker 2: and long term, this is really going to be awful. 266 00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:51,560 Speaker 2: And I don't know why stuff like that became political 267 00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:54,320 Speaker 2: where you had to take sides, it became polarized. To me, 268 00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:56,360 Speaker 2: it was just like a practical issue. It's like, you 269 00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:58,960 Speaker 2: can't have this go on. There's no room for all 270 00:13:58,960 --> 00:13:59,439 Speaker 2: these people. 271 00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:03,160 Speaker 4: We are a country of immigrants. My family are immigrants. 272 00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:07,000 Speaker 4: How they immigrated legally and with the help of the 273 00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:10,760 Speaker 4: Jewish Federation, they came as refugees. I love that our 274 00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:13,480 Speaker 4: country is a melting pot. I love the diversity in 275 00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:17,400 Speaker 4: our country. I don't love jihadis terrorists crossing our border 276 00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:21,880 Speaker 4: without any stop. I don't like people being caught, then 277 00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:26,480 Speaker 4: released and going on to commit rapes and murders. I 278 00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:29,120 Speaker 4: have friends that live along the border and that are 279 00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:33,560 Speaker 4: actively seeking houses in gated communities because they're afraid of 280 00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:36,720 Speaker 4: break ins. I mean, these are real life, day to 281 00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:40,360 Speaker 4: day problems that we are facing as Americans, and we 282 00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:44,320 Speaker 4: keep on harping on, well, you know, you just are 283 00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:48,000 Speaker 4: a racist or you don't, you know, accept immigrants.

I've been heartbroken over the friendships 302 00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:39,040 Speaker 4: that I have lost because even though they have clearly 303 00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:41,520 Speaker 4: shown to not care about me, I still very much 304 00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:42,320 Speaker 4: care about them. 305 00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:43,760 Speaker 3: I care about their safety. 306 00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:47,320 Speaker 4: I care about their feeling safe and like comfortable in 307 00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:48,040 Speaker 4: this country. 308 00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:50,360 Speaker 3: You know, my values haven't changed. 309 00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:52,600 Speaker 4: I just think that the way that we can improve 310 00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:54,760 Speaker 4: our country is different than they do. 311 00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:57,320 Speaker 2: Do you think the fever has broken? Absolutely? 312 00:15:57,720 --> 00:16:00,480 Speaker 4: I think now there are so much, so many more 313 00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:03,760 Speaker 4: people that are willing to be honest and have the 314 00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:07,760 Speaker 4: hard conversations. Maybe it's lost upon those forty individuals that 315 00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:11,160 Speaker 4: I'm thinking of. But you know, when doors close, others open, 316 00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:14,480 Speaker 4: and the amount of people that are vocalizing the same thing, 317 00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:17,480 Speaker 4: you know, there is no reason that this story would 318 00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:20,280 Speaker 4: have gone to the news if it wasn't everyone's story 319 00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:23,360 Speaker 4: to tell.
