You got caught, 83 00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:40,120 Speaker 1: but you still knew how to organize. So it's the 84 00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:42,800 Speaker 1: same skill.

And 95 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:13,640 Speaker 1: if you cannot file, then you run by getting on petition. 96 00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:17,760 Speaker 1: Meaning I was a candidate once and realized it wasn't 97 00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 1: for me. In Orlando, Florida, I got my petition signed 98 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:23,880 Speaker 1: in one night, hard and heavy bike ride and the 99 00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:28,400 Speaker 1: strippers got my petition signed in one night.

When you pay to get on the ballot, 102 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 1: they tell me you can't organize. All you need to 103 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:38,400 Speaker 1: do is get on the ballot and go knock on 104 00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:41,440 Speaker 1: some damn doors. Everybody want to do everything but knock 105 00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:43,600 Speaker 1: on doors. It's kind of like with kids. You want 106 00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:46,520 Speaker 1: to do everything but clean the kitchen. Clean the kitchen. Oh, 107 00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:48,080 Speaker 1: y'all gonna do it right after I get done, or 108 00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:52,400 Speaker 1: suth clean the kitchen. It's simple on the local and state. 109 00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:55,040 Speaker 2: Level, you see, and that's my point, See how you're 110 00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:57,279 Speaker 2: giving everybody actual things to be able to do, to 111 00:04:57,320 --> 00:04:59,160 Speaker 2: be able to build on a lot of times these 112 00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:01,520 Speaker 2: conversations that have and in social space, it's just basically telling 113 00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:03,080 Speaker 2: people to shut up and vote and quid ask some 114 00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:04,800 Speaker 2: question because you ain't qualified to do that. And that's 115 00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:06,480 Speaker 2: what I said. I think that turns a lot of 116 00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:08,400 Speaker 2: people off. For me, been getting involved in the process 117 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:11,039 Speaker 2: because of hn i C mentality and that gatekeeper ship 118 00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:13,039 Speaker 2: keeps a lot of people out of it, Oh for sure. 119 00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:14,240 Speaker 1: But I'm just going to let you know you can 120 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:17,520 Speaker 1: hop over the gate. The gate is hoppable again in 121 00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:20,080 Speaker 1: the jumbo try. When when you tell me it take 122 00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:22,359 Speaker 1: five thousand people to get a Compton mayor elected in 123 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:25,080 Speaker 1: eighty thousand, eighty thousand people live in Compton, you mean 124 00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:27,200 Speaker 1: tell me, NCA, we can't get five thousand people to 125 00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:30,320 Speaker 1: rock with you. Of course we can. Of course we can. 126 00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:33,960 Speaker 1: So it's just giving people the game. But you got 127 00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:36,680 Speaker 1: to be willing to take the game and roll with it. 128 00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:43,120 Speaker 1: If if Inglewood can be an entire blood organization and 129 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:47,200 Speaker 1: you can have thousands of people under the bloodline, then 130 00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:49,400 Speaker 1: you tell me you can't get two hundred of them 131 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 1: to show up at the polls. They run through a 132 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:57,039 Speaker 1: wall for you. They can't do that and get some 133 00:05:57,120 --> 00:06:00,800 Speaker 1: real power. That's what the mafia does. So it's just 134 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:03,360 Speaker 1: giving the game. But you can't be scared about this either. 135 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:05,960 Speaker 1: But it also takes you working and working on the ground. 136 00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:08,440 Speaker 1: It ain't by this damn talk. And you right. A 137 00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:10,880 Speaker 1: lot of people the gatekeepers tour and they do say that, 138 00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:12,600 Speaker 1: but let me speak to the other side to keep 139 00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:14,520 Speaker 1: it balanced. A lot of these people y'all listening to 140 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:17,280 Speaker 1: you on these podcasts, they ain't never ran no race. 141 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:19,880 Speaker 1: They just sit up and talk about the gatekeepers all 142 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:22,039 Speaker 1: the time. But how many races, though, have you won? 143 00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:26,520 Speaker 1: They ain't never ran no race either. So although they're there, 144 00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:29,160 Speaker 1: although they're talking about the gatekeepers, they ain't win and 145 00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:33,000 Speaker 1: knocked on nobody's damn door. So they ain't giving game either. 146 00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:35,320 Speaker 1: They just talking about the gatekeepers. Anybody can sit up here. 147 00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:36,800 Speaker 1: I can sit up here and make y'all mad at 148 00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:39,599 Speaker 1: the gatekeepers all day. How many times have you knocked 149 00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:42,960 Speaker 1: down the door? Though? Let's go, let's run through those receipts. 150 00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:46,080 Speaker 1: That's what inspires people.

I tried, Well, 178 00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:13,320 Speaker 3: you guys were more successful in Michigan than we were, 179 00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:17,360 Speaker 3: unfortunately in Ohio in twenty sixteen, because I remember in 180 00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:22,120 Speaker 3: Michigan we won and then Ohio was just a big disappointment. 181 00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:24,040 Speaker 3: You know, I worked. I worked in kind of the 182 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:27,880 Speaker 3: northeast part of the state, near near Cleveland, my Cauyahoga County. 183 00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:32,840 Speaker 3: My question for you is because I hear like one 184 00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:36,320 Speaker 3: of you made the point that there are a lot 185 00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:38,559 Speaker 3: of people who are gatekeepers, but there are also a 186 00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:42,760 Speaker 3: lot of people who are who are just criticized in gatekeepers. 187 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:46,800 Speaker 3: How do we combat nihilism in voting because one of 188 00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:49,040 Speaker 3: the things that I've dealt with even. 189 00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:50,719 Speaker 1: Break it down and lame of turn. Baby, don't use 190 00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:52,600 Speaker 1: big words. We just talked very I mean, I appreciate 191 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:55,000 Speaker 1: the intellect, but break it down. So everybody, I'm standing. 192 00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:58,000 Speaker 3: Yea, how do we okay, how do we come back 193 00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:00,760 Speaker 3: complacency when it comes to voting, Because one of the 194 00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:03,240 Speaker 3: things that I've dealt with when I've tried to organize 195 00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:07,080 Speaker 3: in my community is I'll hear a lot of people 196 00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:12,280 Speaker 3: talk about how they're not good candidates. There are people 197 00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:15,880 Speaker 3: who everybody's a sellout, et cetera, et cetera, and then 198 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:20,000 Speaker 3: there's sometimes where progressive candidates are not given the support 199 00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:21,680 Speaker 3: that they need to be given. I mean, I think 200 00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:24,480 Speaker 3: about I don't live in Cleveland, but I think about 201 00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:26,640 Speaker 3: someone like Nina Turner who ran on what a lot 202 00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:30,640 Speaker 3: of people on here would say is a good platform, 203 00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:34,000 Speaker 3: and in a city, in a district of three hundred 204 00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:36,800 Speaker 3: four hundred thousand people, only twenty two thousand people voted 205 00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:40,600 Speaker 3: for her. So I guess that's my question because there 206 00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:42,920 Speaker 3: is a lot of talk about how we need better representation, 207 00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:44,960 Speaker 3: and then some of the people that run are not 208 00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:47,240 Speaker 3: supported like they need to be supported. I meant, I 209 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:50,000 Speaker 3: wasn't involved in Marcel Dixon in South Carolina, but for 210 00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:52,440 Speaker 3: all the talk about reparations on here, you would think 211 00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:55,640 Speaker 3: that someone like that would get more support. So that's 212 00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:56,360 Speaker 3: my question. 213 00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:59,000 Speaker 1: Great question, Well, I actually wasn't name the tiers direct 214 00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:01,199 Speaker 1: to communication. She's a part a friend of mine, and 215 00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:05,040 Speaker 1: I'm gonna give you the hardstone cold truth. Nina left 216 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:08,400 Speaker 1: Cleveland and went national, and although she came, she got 217 00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:10,920 Speaker 1: very close the first time, and a lot of people 218 00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:13,320 Speaker 1: did raise money against her, but again Rashida's lead. They 219 00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:15,199 Speaker 1: raised a lot of money against her too, but Rashita's 220 00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:17,640 Speaker 1: lee was on the ground. Nina was running in a 221 00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:21,439 Speaker 1: moderate city that voted seventy percent Joe Biden, you people 222 00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:23,679 Speaker 1: on Twitter, came win nothing for nobody in Cleveland. Even 223 00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:26,120 Speaker 1: though it's a congress a congressional seat, a federal seat, 224 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:29,080 Speaker 1: it's still local. It's still about getting thirty thousand people 225 00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:31,360 Speaker 1: to the poles. And although she was very close, she 226 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:33,480 Speaker 1: had not been working on the ground for six years. 227 00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:35,760 Speaker 1: So even though she was more dynamic, even though she 228 00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:38,440 Speaker 1: had a better platform, even though all of these things, 229 00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:40,120 Speaker 1: at the end of the day, she ran against somebody 230 00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:42,080 Speaker 1: that was a Democrat chair. She ran against somebody that 231 00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:44,760 Speaker 1: was literally sitting in the city council seat who was 232 00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:47,160 Speaker 1: not as dynamic as her. But that was the people 233 00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:48,800 Speaker 1: that was that was the one that was kissing hands 234 00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:50,839 Speaker 1: and shaking babies while she was on the campaign trail. 235 00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:53,520 Speaker 1: That shit matters. That's the part of the calculus. And 236 00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:55,920 Speaker 1: she's a very close friend of mine and she wouldn't 237 00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:57,560 Speaker 1: like She don't like it when I say that. But 238 00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:00,840 Speaker 1: that's just the real that's just the real deal. At 239 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:02,880 Speaker 1: the end of the day. On the oh, they should 240 00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:06,040 Speaker 1: be a y'all can't tell Cleveland how to run. They city. 241 00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:09,520 Speaker 1: Seventy percent of the people are moderate. You progress just 242 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:11,600 Speaker 1: can't tell them shit about that. They don't even like 243 00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:14,600 Speaker 1: you forgress. Nina need to be running in California. As 244 00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:17,160 Speaker 1: a matter of fact, I told her that today she'd 245 00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:19,319 Speaker 1: be running where they rock. You go. You go run 246 00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:21,720 Speaker 1: with people rocking with you. You don't go force no 247 00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:24,480 Speaker 1: man or no woman, begging no woman.

So why would you just put the thumbs down? 271 00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:19,439 Speaker 1: So if you ain't dressed? Right in the club, you 272 00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:21,439 Speaker 1: said you don't approach women that you dressed.

Because if you 277 00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:32,960 Speaker 1: feel like you're not in the best position, you ain't 278 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:35,480 Speaker 1: gona approach nobody. Why because you live in Atlanta.

Okay, then, so I 281 00:12:42,920 --> 00:12:45,800 Speaker 1: don't know why you put it. Oh, y'all, Touring didn't 282 00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:48,960 Speaker 1: think I remember when he posted that put a one hundred. 283 00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:50,920 Speaker 1: Put it one hundred. If y'all believe that. Torn didn't 284 00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:54,600 Speaker 1: believe I was gonna put that receipt, see I stay. 285 00:12:56,840 --> 00:12:59,480 Speaker 1: Torn didn't think I remember the receipt. But Torren said, 286 00:12:59,880 --> 00:13:01,559 Speaker 1: I've reached out to you. I went out my way 287 00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:04,760 Speaker 1: and say what you mean. Yeah, if I'm not on 288 00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:07,199 Speaker 1: my shit, I'm not gonna approach her because I want 289 00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:09,360 Speaker 1: to make sure. I want to make sure that I'm 290 00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:11,640 Speaker 1: on top of my game so I won't get rejected. 291 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:13,840 Speaker 1: Because guess what. Men don't like being rejected. Now, the 292 00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:15,440 Speaker 1: men that I know in LA they don't give a 293 00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:17,800 Speaker 1: damn what they looking like. They don't give a damn 294 00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:21,480 Speaker 1: if you Beyonce, if you whoever, Hey, what's happening. What's happening, mom? 295 00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:23,640 Speaker 1: They don't give a shit. So region's got a lot 296 00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:24,880 Speaker 1: to do with it too. But we could table there 297 00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:27,200 Speaker 1: and have that conversation the other day. But the point is, 298 00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:29,600 Speaker 1: when you're in the club, you either gonna go towards 299 00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:31,160 Speaker 1: the low hanging fruit if you know you ain't on 300 00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:32,959 Speaker 1: your shit and you trying to take something on the night, 301 00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:34,800 Speaker 1: or if you trying to get the battest in the club, 302 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:36,800 Speaker 1: you gonna make sure you on your top tier, depending 303 00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:39,120 Speaker 1: up on your region. So what I'm saying to that 304 00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:41,520 Speaker 1: is stop talking to people that don't want to fuck 305 00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:43,600 Speaker 1: with you. You spend too much time talking to people 306 00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:45,920 Speaker 1: don't want to fuck with you. Using the example it's 307 00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:50,520 Speaker 1: eighty thousand people, using the Compton, California example, Why are 308 00:13:50,559 --> 00:13:53,160 Speaker 1: you talking to the same five thousand people over and over? 309 00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:55,880 Speaker 1: One thing that the establishment does when they go in 310 00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:59,319 Speaker 1: the voter action network, they go to the supervowters, they 311 00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:01,480 Speaker 1: only talk to their voters that they know we're going 312 00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:03,440 Speaker 1: to vote for them. That's why when y'all think y'all 313 00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:05,400 Speaker 1: saying something by saying y'all gonna stay home, let me 314 00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:07,080 Speaker 1: give you news, let me give you some breaking news 315 00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:10,000 Speaker 1: to those who actually worked on a campaign. You are 316 00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:12,520 Speaker 1: helping them out with that we're just gonna stay home. 317 00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:15,439 Speaker 1: Guess what, it's always more people that stay home than 318 00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:18,080 Speaker 1: it is that show up. You are not helping at all, 319 00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:20,960 Speaker 1: not at all. In fact, it makes it easier for 320 00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:23,880 Speaker 1: me to get fifty one percent because if you stay home, 321 00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:25,960 Speaker 1: now only got to find five hundred people. I don't 322 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:28,480 Speaker 1: have to find a thousand. The trick to it is 323 00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:31,880 Speaker 1: torn and those of y'all and who are listening that 324 00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:34,240 Speaker 1: think y'all be saying sometime, but y'all staying at home. 325 00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:37,920 Speaker 1: The trick to it is running a candidate to split 326 00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:42,200 Speaker 1: the vote. Get anybody to do it, Grandma, uncle, whoever 327 00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:44,440 Speaker 1: put them on the ballot. If you want to stick 328 00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:46,760 Speaker 1: it to somebody, that's what you do. You make them 329 00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:49,080 Speaker 1: work harder. Using the example I gave you, twenty three 330 00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:51,200 Speaker 1: hundred people showed up. They put it back in the 331 00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:53,520 Speaker 1: jumbo trying so they can see it. Look at the 332 00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:58,360 Speaker 1: City of Compton primary nominating election, twenty three hundred people 333 00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:02,320 Speaker 1: showed up for Christine. Then after that is one, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, 334 00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:05,800 Speaker 1: nine nine other people ran. The person at the bottom 335 00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:08,920 Speaker 1: Elijah had forty three people show up. That forty three 336 00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:11,920 Speaker 1: people showed up that hurt Christian at the top, forty 337 00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:17,000 Speaker 1: three people staying at home though hurt christin I mean 338 00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:19,920 Speaker 1: staying at home, But forty three people forty three people 339 00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:24,120 Speaker 1: that voted for her voted for Elijah that actually hurt Christian. 340 00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:26,080 Speaker 1: So y'all not saying nothing when y'all say I'm just 341 00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:28,200 Speaker 1: gonna stay at home. Those are people that have never 342 00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:30,000 Speaker 1: had to work a win number. I'm telling you how 343 00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:33,280 Speaker 1: it works. Randomly. Just put anybody on the damn ballot. 344 00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:35,640 Speaker 1: Write in somebody. I'm not telling you to vote for 345 00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:37,840 Speaker 1: somebody you don't support. What I'm telling you is if 346 00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:39,520 Speaker 1: you want to stick it to them, you make it 347 00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:41,840 Speaker 1: harder for them to climb that Hell, that's how you 348 00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:44,760 Speaker 1: That's how you push the line, not by sitting at home. 349 00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:47,760 Speaker 1: That just makes the win number easier to get to. 350 00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:51,160 Speaker 1: So you do not come back complacency. Stop talking to 351 00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:53,800 Speaker 1: people that ain't rocking with you. You go find your district. 352 00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:57,080 Speaker 1: Had Nina Turner ran in California like I told her 353 00:15:57,080 --> 00:15:59,800 Speaker 1: to do, like she publicly acknowledged that FIGUREO told her 354 00:15:59,840 --> 00:16:01,840 Speaker 1: to do, because then she called me figure out she 355 00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:05,520 Speaker 1: would have won. Why would you spend time talking to 356 00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:07,560 Speaker 1: people that you know ain't rocking with you. They don't 357 00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:10,720 Speaker 1: like Bernie Sanders. I don't like Bernie Sanders. Modern Black 358 00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:13,960 Speaker 1: people are moderate. They are not progressive. For the most part, 359 00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:16,440 Speaker 1: they should be, but the progressive movement do not know 360 00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:18,520 Speaker 1: how to talk to Black people. They still do that 361 00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:21,760 Speaker 1: low information voter is ram majority by white people, and 362 00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:24,440 Speaker 1: I can't stand them. So although I work for Bernie Sanders, 363 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:26,400 Speaker 1: it's a lot of anti black. I was the only 364 00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:29,880 Speaker 1: and the first staffer that called out Bernie Sanders and 365 00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:32,240 Speaker 1: his racism. After I did that, ten people follow me. 366 00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:36,120 Speaker 1: That's why Bernie Sanders got his ass dusted. That's the 367 00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:36,880 Speaker 1: truth of the matter. 368 00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:45,560 Speaker 3: And Tesla, the last thing I just wanted to say 369 00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:47,640 Speaker 3: too is that is that is also something that I 370 00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:54,120 Speaker 3: just think is a misconception because I hear, yeah, I 371 00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:56,320 Speaker 3: was gonna say, it's a misconception when people on here 372 00:16:56,520 --> 00:17:00,640 Speaker 3: act like the grassroots voters are progressive and it's elites 373 00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:03,720 Speaker 3: that are moderate, like a lot of black a lot 374 00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:06,639 Speaker 3: of grassroots for voters in places like Cleveland, because Cleveland's 375 00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:10,840 Speaker 3: not Cleveland, Black voters aren't aren't necessarily wealthy. A lot 376 00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:13,560 Speaker 3: of them are very moderate, not only socially like people 377 00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:15,560 Speaker 3: like to talk about, but economically like a lot of 378 00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:18,879 Speaker 3: voters fundamentally. When I've canvassed and I've said, oh, what 379 00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:22,480 Speaker 3: about Medicare for all? What about minimum wage increase? A 380 00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:24,960 Speaker 3: lot of them are like, yeah, I just want my 381 00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:27,320 Speaker 3: healthcare to be improved. I'm not with that Medicare for 382 00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:29,919 Speaker 3: all stuffs. So I think that's something that's important for 383 00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:32,320 Speaker 3: people on here to know it's not just bougie negroes 384 00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:35,399 Speaker 3: who were talking about, you know, being economically moderate. 385 00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:38,720 Speaker 1: A lot of oh for sure, for sure the average 386 00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:41,320 Speaker 1: working class. And again, this is what and I appreciate 387 00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:42,679 Speaker 1: having you on this call because I love how going 388 00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:44,920 Speaker 1: people to actually work on the ground. Black people are 389 00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:48,760 Speaker 1: moderate and largely a lot lean conservative in a lot 390 00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:50,840 Speaker 1: of ways. Black people have to work hard as hell 391 00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:52,399 Speaker 1: to get their money. Ain't no, they ain't trying to 392 00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:53,960 Speaker 1: sit up and give it all the way to the government. 393 00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:56,879 Speaker 1: That is an absolute misconception. And it doesn't mean that 394 00:17:56,920 --> 00:17:59,800 Speaker 1: they're conservative, and it doesn't mean that they don't care. 395 00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:03,480 Speaker 1: It's just the issues that matter to them. Yes, we do, 396 00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:06,080 Speaker 1: we have an overwall least of these. But I want 397 00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:09,600 Speaker 1: to be clear, the progressive movement is ran by white folks. Now, 398 00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:12,040 Speaker 1: if you want more Black people involved, then they didn't. 399 00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:13,520 Speaker 1: Black people need to go over there and take over 400 00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:15,879 Speaker 1: that shit because right now they cater to white folks. 401 00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:19,119 Speaker 1: They're no different. When I hear them talking about boomers 402 00:18:19,160 --> 00:18:22,440 Speaker 1: and you know, we don't like you black, you black 403 00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:24,440 Speaker 1: elites and all these white people to get all these 404 00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:26,760 Speaker 1: nuts to talk crazy to black people, I tell them 405 00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:29,680 Speaker 1: my time, you stay at black folks business, You stay 406 00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:32,560 Speaker 1: o black vaux bit. Black conservatives will deal with black 407 00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:37,879 Speaker 1: conservative progressives. Black progressives will deal with black establishment democrats. 408 00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:40,840 Speaker 1: White folks, burn you burners. You keep your ass out 409 00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:44,159 Speaker 1: of Black people's business. That's what turned a lot of 410 00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:47,760 Speaker 1: people off. Sometimes it's not always the platform is the candidate. 411 00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:52,479 Speaker 1: And I'm telling you firsthand, working on that campaign at 412 00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:55,159 Speaker 1: the national level, ten of us that went on that campaign, 413 00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:56,920 Speaker 1: I walked in the door the same day a sense 414 00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:58,840 Speaker 1: of eternity that I know how they did her. I 415 00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:00,480 Speaker 1: know what they did on the ground. I was on 416 00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:03,640 Speaker 1: them conference calls. I saw it. That's why I wish 417 00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:05,480 Speaker 1: somebody would challenge me on it, because I know what 418 00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:12,119 Speaker 1: I saw and they know different than what the Democrat establishment, 419 00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:14,040 Speaker 1: boomers or whatever you want to call it. They don't 420 00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:15,919 Speaker 1: know how to talk to black people. They don't know 421 00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:17,879 Speaker 1: how to deal black people. They think the answer is 422 00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:20,680 Speaker 1: always low information voted now. Sometimes black people just don't 423 00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:25,320 Speaker 1: like you. Sometime they just don't like you. Period. You 424 00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:27,520 Speaker 1: don't know how to talk to black people. You tell 425 00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:29,600 Speaker 1: black people what they should and should not be doing. 426 00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:32,080 Speaker 1: If I heard that one more time about him walking 427 00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:33,879 Speaker 1: with emilk black they don't give a shit about who 428 00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:36,400 Speaker 1: you walk with no emilk. You ain't met no black 429 00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:38,280 Speaker 1: people in twenty years. And the black people that you 430 00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:40,760 Speaker 1: did meet, I introduced some to him, so I can 431 00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:43,760 Speaker 1: talk that shit. I'm over exaggerating. Obviously he met more 432 00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:45,320 Speaker 1: you know, black people that I was. I'm just saying, 433 00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:51,000 Speaker 1: until they value relationships that real black people have on 434 00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:52,919 Speaker 1: the ground and the progressive movement, black people will never 435 00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:55,600 Speaker 1: go over there. They've turned a lot of Black people 436 00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:58,080 Speaker 1: off and black it is not just this boogie. You 437 00:19:58,080 --> 00:20:01,720 Speaker 1: are absolutely right. Middle class Black people are largely moderate. 438 00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:05,360 Speaker 1: They ain't with that socialism shit, y'all own, not at all, 439 00:20:06,359 --> 00:20:08,760 Speaker 1: because the reality of it is it's still a lift 440 00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:11,680 Speaker 1: all boats tied whatever shit be over there talking about 441 00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:13,480 Speaker 1: it, and we ain't with that because we know that do 442 00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:16,560 Speaker 1: not serve us well. But I do think more black 443 00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:18,400 Speaker 1: people should be in the progressive move and I really 444 00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:20,919 Speaker 1: really do. It just ain't gonna be me. I'm not 445 00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:24,640 Speaker 1: a progressive, but I did work on a progressive campaign. 446 00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:28,080 Speaker 1: Two things can be true at the same time. Who's 447 00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:29,760 Speaker 1: up mixed or did you have any follow up with 448 00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:31,520 Speaker 1: that trend before I go? Because I do, like, yeah, 449 00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:32,560 Speaker 1: that's all I wanted. 450 00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:34,520 Speaker 4: This is because that's why I mean, you know I 451 00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:37,800 Speaker 4: I mean, particularly with with you know, everybody on here, 452 00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:40,760 Speaker 4: you know, toring you like, That's that's all I want 453 00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:42,880 Speaker 4: to put pushback on because I want to be clear. 454 00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:45,160 Speaker 5: I'm not I mean, I'm lucky that I'm I'm doing 455 00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:48,080 Speaker 5: what I'm doing. Okay, I'm surviving in this colony. But 456 00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:51,240 Speaker 5: most of my family, even in terms of president aial election, 457 00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:54,960 Speaker 5: a lot of them are very working class or like I. 458 00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:57,520 Speaker 5: In some cases it's I got some of my student 459 00:20:57,600 --> 00:21:01,320 Speaker 5: loans forgiven. That's enough for me. I'm voting for the Democrats. 460 00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:03,760 Speaker 5: So I just wanted to I just wanted to add 461 00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:05,879 Speaker 5: that because that's the biggest That's one of the biggest 462 00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:08,840 Speaker 5: misconceptions I hear is that black people who even next 463 00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:10,840 Speaker 5: year hurt this year, who are going to vote for Biden, 464 00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:12,800 Speaker 5: are all going to be people are making four hundred 465 00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:17,280 Speaker 5: thousand dollars Like Keep in mind, Detroit votes ninety five 466 00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:19,239 Speaker 5: percent for Democrats, and a lot of those people are 467 00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:23,119 Speaker 5: people who are very poor and very you know, my city, 468 00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:26,320 Speaker 5: downtown is a very poor city, and it's a very 469 00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:27,920 Speaker 5: moderate democratic city. 470 00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:30,240 Speaker 1: So that's all I wanted to say. I'm glad you 471 00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:33,640 Speaker 1: brought up student loans because you know, in the conscious space, 472 00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:35,720 Speaker 1: if you will, you know, there's a lot of you know, 473 00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:39,199 Speaker 1: forget them student loans, student loans, blah dah da da dah. Well, again, 474 00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:43,880 Speaker 1: everybody should be looking at I have three degrees. I'm 475 00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:46,440 Speaker 1: going to give my fourth. I got student loans. That's 476 00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:49,719 Speaker 1: not why I vote, because again I I because of 477 00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:52,159 Speaker 1: what I do in my work, in my life. I 478 00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:55,600 Speaker 1: typically vote a lot of collective issues, but the most 479 00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:58,160 Speaker 1: meaning the collective I'm considering collective. But for most part, 480 00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:00,880 Speaker 1: you're supposed to do what worked for you. And if 481 00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:02,800 Speaker 1: you have a four or five hundred dollars student loan, 482 00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:05,360 Speaker 1: that matters y'all got to stop shaming people for that too. 483 00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:07,280 Speaker 1: You know, y'all got that bad. Just because you're asking 484 00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:09,480 Speaker 1: go to college, don't mean like somebody else ain't supposed 485 00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:11,920 Speaker 1: to be concerned that that five hundred is not taking 486 00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:13,520 Speaker 1: care of their kids, or that five hundred is not 487 00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:15,960 Speaker 1: going towards their rent. That's hurting them. That can be 488 00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:18,120 Speaker 1: a real issue for them. Y'all get that a lot 489 00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:20,320 Speaker 1: from these podcasts they be telling y'all ain't about student loan. 490 00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:22,520 Speaker 1: These are people that never went to college, so it's 491 00:22:22,600 --> 00:22:24,399 Speaker 1: very easy. But somebody who ain't never went to college, 492 00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:26,160 Speaker 1: don't have a student loan to be telling somebody else 493 00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:28,320 Speaker 1: what they need to be concerned about. You could say 494 00:22:28,359 --> 00:22:30,280 Speaker 1: college is a sham. You can say whatever you want 495 00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:32,200 Speaker 1: to say. But I'm here to tell you, black folks, 496 00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:34,640 Speaker 1: I needed all the credentials because no gate was open 497 00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:37,200 Speaker 1: for me. There was no gate. No mama, no daddy 498 00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:38,959 Speaker 1: put me on. Everything I had to do. I had 499 00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:41,560 Speaker 1: to hustle, so I needed at all. I needed the degrees, 500 00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:44,680 Speaker 1: I needed the certifications, I needed the relationships. I needed 501 00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:48,080 Speaker 1: at all. So I don't shit on anybody, the trades, 502 00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:51,520 Speaker 1: all of that, whatever it is to get you to 503 00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:54,480 Speaker 1: move your family forward that works for you, the nerve 504 00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:56,640 Speaker 1: with somebody else that decided to take a different route, 505 00:22:56,640 --> 00:22:59,800 Speaker 1: and to tell them what should matter to them. That's 506 00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:04,040 Speaker 1: what matters to them. And but let me be fair 507 00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:06,959 Speaker 1: on the other side, those of you that got college degrees, shaming, 508 00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:10,160 Speaker 1: shaming people that don't and telling it making them feel 509 00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:11,960 Speaker 1: like because they don't have a college degree, they're not 510 00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:14,560 Speaker 1: equal to you. Talented ten y'all need to have a 511 00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:20,159 Speaker 1: ceat two. You're wrong because blue collar is critically important 512 00:23:21,160 --> 00:23:24,080 Speaker 1: and it takes the degrees, but also blue collar jobs. 513 00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:27,399 Speaker 1: So again, we have to look at what works for you. 514 00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:30,160 Speaker 1: If somebody's paying one thousand dollars a student dad, yeah 515 00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:32,160 Speaker 1: that's gonna matter to them, just like if you're paying 516 00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:35,000 Speaker 1: one thousand dollars in child support, it mattered to you 517 00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:37,120 Speaker 1: if that's something you like, Hey, don't. I don't think 518 00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:39,080 Speaker 1: Florida should happen where if I don't pay child support 519 00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:40,679 Speaker 1: and I don't have a driver's license, they take your 520 00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:42,880 Speaker 1: driver's license. But I'm going to Florida. I never mest 521 00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:44,879 Speaker 1: so many people didn't have drivers license in my life 522 00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:48,160 Speaker 1: because they didn't pay child support and they got two 523 00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:50,040 Speaker 1: behind and they still was paying the best that they could. 524 00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:52,080 Speaker 1: They lost a job, they got on their ass. They 525 00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:55,320 Speaker 1: wasn't just dead be dad's situations put them in that way. 526 00:23:55,440 --> 00:23:57,639 Speaker 1: Let me deal with this because it's another I'm just 527 00:23:57,640 --> 00:24:00,200 Speaker 1: giving y'all a bunch of game today. Another talking point. 528 00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:02,240 Speaker 1: Y'all talk about how, oh yeah they got they got 529 00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:04,440 Speaker 1: motivated in the sixties to be single. I really don't 530 00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:05,640 Speaker 1: want to go there, but I do got to say 531 00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:08,600 Speaker 1: this while we're there. Oh they was, they was incentivized 532 00:24:08,640 --> 00:24:11,840 Speaker 1: to be single. Mamas. Yeah that's true, But ain't nobody 533 00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:14,919 Speaker 1: incentivize you to walk away either? Who incentivized you? I 534 00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:16,920 Speaker 1: don't know no man in my family that walked away 535 00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:20,080 Speaker 1: from his children. Can't You can't make my ex husband 536 00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:23,640 Speaker 1: walk away from his child? What incentible? Can't You can't 537 00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:26,879 Speaker 1: incentivize him enough. You couldn't centivize my daddy enough to 538 00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:32,160 Speaker 1: walk away from me. So even if she got incentivized 539 00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:36,359 Speaker 1: to get on Section eight, that ain't incentivizing your ass 540 00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:37,760 Speaker 1: or not take care of your kids and be a 541 00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:39,640 Speaker 1: part of their life. So let's stop that blame game. 542 00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:43,440 Speaker 1: Y'all love that talking point. It is true, but ain'tbody 543 00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:45,200 Speaker 1: telling you not to take care of your family. 544 00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:46,840 Speaker 5: That. 545 00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:49,160 Speaker 1: Let's just keep it a buck. Men take do men 546 00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:53,560 Speaker 1: do men things, even if you got a trash baby mama, 547 00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:59,000 Speaker 1: I remember shout out to trade the truth. Those of 548 00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:01,440 Speaker 1: you follow him on instant. He put his whole story 549 00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:03,160 Speaker 1: out when he was fighting to see his baby girl. 550 00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:05,440 Speaker 1: He put it all out publicly because he wanted people 551 00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:07,480 Speaker 1: to know I'm putting it all on the line to 552 00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:09,960 Speaker 1: see mine. You couldn't incentivize him to not stay away 553 00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:12,240 Speaker 1: from his baby girl. So now, men that want to 554 00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:14,719 Speaker 1: be in your children's life, you will be in your 555 00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:16,760 Speaker 1: child's life. Come hell loud water. If you gotta go 556 00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:18,440 Speaker 1: to court, if you gotta do whatever, you gotta lay 557 00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:21,400 Speaker 1: your body down, whatever, whether you got money or don't 558 00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:23,439 Speaker 1: have money, you gonna show up. You're gonna be something. 559 00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:27,840 Speaker 1: So let's stop.

I've been 659 00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:52,120 Speaker 1: talking about the same thing for the last fifteen years 660 00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:55,160 Speaker 1: while everybody else talking about everything else.

When it comes to me and 686 00:30:58,200 --> 00:31:01,080 Speaker 1: you're challenging me, I don't like talking to talk. If 687 00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:03,240 Speaker 1: we're gonna talk about it, we did to talk about 688 00:31:03,400 --> 00:31:06,560 Speaker 1: like that brother that got up tread. I believe when 689 00:31:06,560 --> 00:31:08,520 Speaker 1: he got up and said he worked on the campaign, 690 00:31:09,520 --> 00:31:12,120 Speaker 1: and then when he mentioned Cleveland, it wasn't nothing for 691 00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:14,360 Speaker 1: him to He couldn't combat what I said because I 692 00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:16,760 Speaker 1: was her director of com so surely he know what 693 00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:18,600 Speaker 1: I said. Was the truth. I could have went along 694 00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:20,120 Speaker 1: with and said, oh man, they did send it to 695 00:31:20,120 --> 00:31:22,400 Speaker 1: turn and so wrong. That's a friend of mine. I 696 00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:24,040 Speaker 1: had her on the Breakfast Club this morning. I went 697 00:31:24,040 --> 00:31:25,520 Speaker 1: out of my way to make sure she was quoted 698 00:31:25,560 --> 00:31:27,400 Speaker 1: on the Breakfast Club this morning. She didn't ask me 699 00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:29,360 Speaker 1: to do that. I did that. Don't nobody rock with 700 00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:31,960 Speaker 1: her harder than me. But I'm still gonna tell you 701 00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:34,000 Speaker 1: the truth. And the truth of the matter is she 702 00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:36,200 Speaker 1: hadn't been on the ground in six six years. That 703 00:31:36,320 --> 00:31:40,440 Speaker 1: made a difference. And when Tred said, well, they wasn't 704 00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:42,920 Speaker 1: supporting her on this app. Can't nobody on this app makeup? 705 00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:44,840 Speaker 1: When they raised a lot of money, they came down 706 00:31:44,840 --> 00:31:46,880 Speaker 1: they don't vote in Cleveland. Them people that's supporting on 707 00:31:46,920 --> 00:31:49,920 Speaker 1: this app do not voting Cleveland. That made a difference. 708 00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:53,080 Speaker 1: Rashida to Lee walked the dog on. They ass they 709 00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:55,360 Speaker 1: raised just as much money, if not more, But that 710 00:31:55,400 --> 00:31:58,520 Speaker 1: woman works on the ground. Do y'all realize that Detroit 711 00:31:58,560 --> 00:32:02,440 Speaker 1: doesn't have Detroit as the black city outside of Jackson? 712 00:32:02,480 --> 00:32:06,400 Speaker 1: I believe, Do y'all realize there's no black representation from 713 00:32:06,440 --> 00:32:13,520 Speaker 1: Michigan none. They outworked in black folks I know because 714 00:32:13,560 --> 00:32:15,840 Speaker 1: my girlfriend worked up the person that was running against 715 00:32:15,880 --> 00:32:18,360 Speaker 1: Rashida Telee. Rashida Lee walked the dog on them when 716 00:32:18,360 --> 00:32:20,440 Speaker 1: it comes to knocking on that door. So you can't 717 00:32:20,480 --> 00:32:22,800 Speaker 1: just say, oh, it's just money. How did they do it? 718 00:32:22,920 --> 00:32:28,560 Speaker 1: That same organization, the same organization went after Rashida Saliba. 719 00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:31,200 Speaker 1: I've never met Sharida's sleeper of Rashida's leber damn my life, 720 00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:35,640 Speaker 1: but I know she ran circles around them, seven black 721 00:32:35,640 --> 00:32:38,800 Speaker 1: people she was running against, and they come down to 722 00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:42,440 Speaker 1: knocking on them doors. That's why Biden better be very 723 00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:45,600 Speaker 1: afraid of Michigan, because when it comes to the American 724 00:32:45,640 --> 00:32:49,160 Speaker 1: in the Muslim population, they ain't playing no games with you. 725 00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:53,560 Speaker 1: It ain't just Twitter with them. They about that door bused. 726 00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:55,880 Speaker 1: You can believe that. I know because I worked in 727 00:32:55,960 --> 00:32:58,320 Speaker 1: that state. That's why she was Rashida Telei and the 728 00:32:58,320 --> 00:33:01,480 Speaker 1: other person I forgot his name American and the Muslims 729 00:33:01,560 --> 00:33:05,600 Speaker 1: run run that not black people. The establishment, all of 730 00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:08,240 Speaker 1: them touring, they all rent, and she walked the dog 731 00:33:08,320 --> 00:33:13,400 Speaker 1: on all seven of them because you cannot out work her. 732 00:33:14,840 --> 00:33:21,040 Speaker 1: The lady that she was running against, aka Establishment, The 733 00:33:21,080 --> 00:33:24,320 Speaker 1: same organization that tried to take down Rashida, to try 734 00:33:24,360 --> 00:33:28,120 Speaker 1: to take down Nina Turner put the same money behind her, 735 00:33:28,960 --> 00:33:31,320 Speaker 1: and she got her ass dusted because she didn't show 736 00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:34,040 Speaker 1: up to nothing. She wasn't working, the people didn't believe 737 00:33:34,040 --> 00:33:35,880 Speaker 1: in the Rashitas lead did better in the hood than 738 00:33:35,920 --> 00:33:39,640 Speaker 1: she did. And she was a former elected officials, the 739 00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:42,000 Speaker 1: former city clerk. No, she thought she could just walk 740 00:33:42,040 --> 00:33:43,520 Speaker 1: her ass up in there and take that seat where 741 00:33:43,520 --> 00:33:46,400 Speaker 1: shea's leave ad news for her. And she's the loudest 742 00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:49,600 Speaker 1: in Congress, constantly getting in trouble. When you got your 743 00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:52,680 Speaker 1: city on lock, can't nobody keep you from that seat. 744 00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:56,120 Speaker 1: She works the ground. Her work ethic beat all of 745 00:33:56,160 --> 00:33:58,000 Speaker 1: them black people. That's really what it is. At the 746 00:33:58,080 --> 00:33:59,480 Speaker 1: end of the day. I know a lot of these 747 00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:01,880 Speaker 1: people that need to get some subscribes and clicks and 748 00:34:02,040 --> 00:34:03,800 Speaker 1: likes and all of that, who ain't never worked on 749 00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:06,680 Speaker 1: no race. I'm telling you what it is, baby, on 750 00:34:06,840 --> 00:34:09,120 Speaker 1: that damn crown. You got to work on this ground. 751 00:34:09,160 --> 00:34:11,240 Speaker 1: It's the hardest thing ever. It's hard to get candidates 752 00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:15,200 Speaker 1: and get them doors slammed in their face. Thought, that's 753 00:34:15,200 --> 00:34:22,399 Speaker 1: the only representative. Cool, that's the elected one. Okay, Yeah, 754 00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:24,160 Speaker 1: you might be right. I'm not sure, but I know 755 00:34:24,200 --> 00:34:27,359 Speaker 1: it's too. I know she's I'm familiar with Rashida Sale's race, 756 00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:30,399 Speaker 1: uh because my girlfriend Jay you know, Michelle, she worked 757 00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:33,120 Speaker 1: on the campaign against her. So I had a very 758 00:34:33,160 --> 00:34:35,440 Speaker 1: inside view of watching why the how the dog got 759 00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:39,040 Speaker 1: walked on them even with all the money a pack, 760 00:34:39,719 --> 00:34:43,840 Speaker 1: the organization, the Jewish organization, that's the largest pack in 761 00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:46,120 Speaker 1: the in the country, the most powerful pack. They put 762 00:34:46,160 --> 00:34:48,400 Speaker 1: the same money behind Rashida's lead. Go google it, and 763 00:34:48,480 --> 00:34:53,640 Speaker 1: she beat them. She beat him. She knows her. She 764 00:34:53,640 --> 00:34:55,600 Speaker 1: ain't out there talking to people that don't rock with her. 765 00:34:55,840 --> 00:34:57,759 Speaker 1: She talking to the people that rock with her. That's 766 00:34:57,800 --> 00:35:01,120 Speaker 1: the key. And they got that shit on lock in 767 00:35:01,200 --> 00:35:03,080 Speaker 1: Michigan and that's why, and that's why you don't have 768 00:35:03,120 --> 00:35:08,640 Speaker 1: any black representation in Michigan. So yes, people supported in 769 00:35:08,719 --> 00:35:11,360 Speaker 1: a Turner financially, but they did not live in the 770 00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:14,560 Speaker 1: city of Cleveland enough. And she did very well and honestly, 771 00:35:14,600 --> 00:35:17,400 Speaker 1: in my opinion, better than what I thought, because that 772 00:35:17,600 --> 00:35:22,840 Speaker 1: district votes seventy percent Joe Biden period. Now go runner 773 00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:25,200 Speaker 1: in California, y'all encourage it. I told her, go to California, 774 00:35:25,200 --> 00:35:26,840 Speaker 1: you win right out the gate. You want to be 775 00:35:26,840 --> 00:35:29,320 Speaker 1: in Congress so bad. I think she's better, more effective 776 00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:34,759 Speaker 1: outside of Congress. But that's just my personal opinion. Let 777 00:35:34,800 --> 00:35:42,520 Speaker 1: me unblock whoever, let me unblock. I got it now, Jay, okay, 778 00:35:42,719 --> 00:35:46,759 Speaker 1: And then nextcept we have Immortal Melanie followed by run out, 779 00:35:47,680 --> 00:35:50,320 Speaker 1: and I've unblocked the person to come before the congregation 780 00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:54,080 Speaker 1: and on their trollish ways. Because by the way, I 781 00:35:54,120 --> 00:35:55,919 Speaker 1: don't even know these people that was trolling and making 782 00:35:55,960 --> 00:35:57,920 Speaker 1: disc records and all this old bullshit.
