So it'd be great to 313 00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:06,760 Speaker 6: know if you all would want to be in a 314 00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:09,000 Speaker 6: town hall like that, like what led you to the 315 00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:12,840 Speaker 6: ballot box or not? You know who drove you to 316 00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:14,000 Speaker 6: the ballot box or not? 317 00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:15,200 Speaker 1: What do you care about? 318 00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:16,480 Speaker 4: What do you care about? 319 00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:19,440 Speaker 5: And how can we do you care enough about to 320 00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:19,840 Speaker 5: do something? 321 00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:23,200 Speaker 6: Yes, how can we collectively work together on those things? 322 00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:26,080 Speaker 6: I would love to have those conversations once a month 323 00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:28,600 Speaker 6: on this podcast. I think when I consider what it 324 00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:32,960 Speaker 6: means to be in the ethos of Native Lampod and 325 00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:34,600 Speaker 6: what it means when we said welcome home, it is 326 00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:35,040 Speaker 6: just that. 327 00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:37,880 Speaker 4: So I hope that we even since the members of Congress. 328 00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:39,800 Speaker 6: The Republicans won't have a town hall, you are well here, 329 00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:40,880 Speaker 6: we will have a town. 330 00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:40,960 Speaker 4: We don't have. 331 00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:42,720 Speaker 1: All they getting dragted these sounds. 332 00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:45,000 Speaker 6: You saw this one where he was like, only Republicans 333 00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:47,000 Speaker 6: come in and they checking their voter registractions. 334 00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:49,040 Speaker 3: Which but it's Republican voters who are mad too, which 335 00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:51,200 Speaker 3: is so ridiculously. But I want to say this about 336 00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:54,400 Speaker 3: distining voices because I don't want people to misunderstand me 337 00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:56,680 Speaker 3: that I'm saying no, we should not have dissenting voices. 338 00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:59,280 Speaker 1: I think dissenting voices can be healthy. 339 00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:02,560 Speaker 3: And like I said, I appreciate a healthy exchange of ideas. 340 00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:05,840 Speaker 3: I appreciate a healthy exchange of ideology. The only person 341 00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:08,520 Speaker 3: in the Trump administration who I would be really curious 342 00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:11,200 Speaker 3: and interested to talk to is Kevin Hassett, who is 343 00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:15,520 Speaker 3: his economic advisor. I think he is number one a 344 00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:16,920 Speaker 3: great communicator. 345 00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:19,920 Speaker 1: Brother. I agree with him or not, but. 346 00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:22,720 Speaker 3: I think and he's at least sensible, and he is 347 00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:26,040 Speaker 3: laser focused on economic policy. I believe economic policy that 348 00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:29,200 Speaker 3: crushes us and harms us. But I think he could 349 00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:31,720 Speaker 3: at least come on and have an intellectual exchange. 350 00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:32,680 Speaker 4: Get your invitation. 351 00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:36,760 Speaker 3: If he would come on, Absolutely absolutely, I would definitely 352 00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:39,120 Speaker 3: sit across from him, because I think that is where 353 00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:42,480 Speaker 3: you get to hear ideas and not a shouting match. 354 00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:45,280 Speaker 3: We're not trying to go viral. If it happens to 355 00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:49,600 Speaker 3: go viral, that's fine. I'm not elevating a clown, you know, Like, 356 00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:52,960 Speaker 3: this is somebody who actually has deep conviction in his 357 00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:55,480 Speaker 3: thoughts around economic policy, and I don't think he's had 358 00:16:55,520 --> 00:16:57,840 Speaker 3: the opportunity to hear from a lot of people like us. 359 00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:02,040 Speaker 3: So I would welcome that conversation. These random internet comments 360 00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:05,400 Speaker 3: jackasses who you know, try to tag us and try 361 00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:07,199 Speaker 3: to get our attention because they want to come on 362 00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:09,560 Speaker 3: and want our attention. I tried to find this clip 363 00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:11,760 Speaker 3: Angel was talking about you. I couldn't find it, but 364 00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:13,560 Speaker 3: this clipping, it's a. 365 00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:15,480 Speaker 4: Sign that God told me no, I guess. 366 00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:18,760 Speaker 3: But but people like that, like it's another chick who 367 00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:22,240 Speaker 3: I think she was a her Her husband owns a 368 00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:24,280 Speaker 3: strip club or something, you know whatever. 369 00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:25,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, I only want to. 370 00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:27,080 Speaker 3: Say her name, But this chick used to try to 371 00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:28,760 Speaker 3: cheat me all the time and get my attention. 372 00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:31,120 Speaker 1: Like people like that, I'm like, no, you, why would 373 00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:31,840 Speaker 1: I sit around? 374 00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:32,600 Speaker 4: What have you done? 375 00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:32,679 Speaker 2: That? 376 00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:34,840 Speaker 4: Are not talking about from personalities. 377 00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:37,800 Speaker 6: I'm talking about the folks who voted or in or 378 00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:39,840 Speaker 6: mobilized voters in their communities. 379 00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:42,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, like what got you to that? No? 380 00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:44,639 Speaker 3: That, but that's not a voice of descent. I'm talking 381 00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:48,160 Speaker 3: specifically about voices of descent. You all want to hear, 382 00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:52,919 Speaker 3: you know, ideological differences. I'm completely open to that. I 383 00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:55,959 Speaker 3: just am not interested in talking to people who are 384 00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:58,200 Speaker 3: willfully ignorant because it's not going to be a fair 385 00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:00,320 Speaker 3: fight if you come on here and you can't defend 386 00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:02,160 Speaker 3: your ideas and you can't send. 387 00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:04,320 Speaker 1: We can show clips, I suppose, but if. 388 00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:07,120 Speaker 3: You can't handle the intellectual weight of the table, then 389 00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:09,320 Speaker 3: you really don't have any business here. And I do 390 00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:12,200 Speaker 3: respectfully think Kevin Hassett could, even though his policies I 391 00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:14,920 Speaker 3: think are harmful. He could so that kind of thing. 392 00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:17,920 Speaker 3: I like, but we wouldn't learn right.
