here s the other thing. go back to 2016 and the way that trump s steam rolled, every time they rolled that seat. steamrolled everyone there, and got to a point, yes, i know it is, but got to a point where the people were just deferring to him and trying to compete for second place but this time now you can t defer to him and make the case of people voting for you. you either have to take him on, and the other part of this is that there are more voters that will be turned off by that then will appeal to, so it s really a catch-22 situation for all those people on the stage. yeah yeah, and i think, to your point, just a hop on that, the vacuum of him does help with that. if you want to steamroll other people, you can do that. that does actually mean there is a space for steamrolling that is not taken over by the other steamroller. yes, but what does that get you in the end, right? it s interesting that there is a kind of learned helplessness. right.

legislative sessions start in january. it s really important that everyone is getting involved in this issue and showing lawmakers they want them to stand on the side of safety. and very quickly, there is this learned helplessness that i think happens among a lot of voters. you think about uvalde county where this massacre happened about these fourth graders. they voted to re-elect the current governor, greg abbott, by nearly 22%. the turnout, 45%. fewer than half of people bothered to vote, and they could have gotten themselves a governor who would have done something about it. that s learned helplessness. it absolutely is. i think cynicism is an excuse too often for inaction. we have to have hope in those states where we worked hard, michigan and minnesota and pennsylvania, we have flipped chambers of the general assembly. now we re going to pass stronger gun laws. we can do that everywhere. if we work together to pass stronger gun laws and to vote on the side of gun safety.
