They're just trying to do everything right and they're working in, you know, some glass shop, you know, manufactures glass in the middle of Ohio and they're making $22 an hour, which isn't great, but it's not bad. But you got to work six days a week or you got to work seven days a week if you want your kid to have a car, if you want your kid to go to college, or if you want to, you know, you put the pool in or whatever, like whatever's going to bring your family some joy, you're the one going to that steel mill and grinding it out.

Democrats are full of crap, especially when...”

“Anger, cynicism to the broader electorate. And then that got stuck to the Democrats. I thought one of Trump's best lines he had in 16. Was when he'd say her husband to Hillary, her husband passed NAFTA. You can put her in office? And like all the working class guys in Youngstown are going, yeah, that doesn't seem like a good idea.

“It's just the loss. Like we didn't see any of the upside that everyone kept talking about the benefits of globalization, comparative advantage, all that stuff I later learned about in school. And the economics classes, it's like, well, nobody did anything. Like there wasn't a response to the shifts. And we literally had factories in Warren, Ohio, Delphi was a supplier to General Motors literally would go after NAFTA, would go to the Miquilodoras right over the border. Build a huge factory. Our jobs left jobs there grew, and our people had to go over the border and literally train them that were going to take their job. Digging your own grade.”

“Mindfulness. Yeah. And so I think it goes to me, it goes back to like just kind of that spiritual dimension of what don't we see here and what's going on there, I think led to a lot of my curiosity about some of these other world religions and things like that.”

“It was big. It was big. I was Altar Boy, you know, and came up My confirmation sponsor is a priest here at Notre Dame, Father Ron Nuzzi. We always had priests over for the holidays. They would come and join our family, one who left a big influence on the family. Every time he was back in town, he'd stop over and have a Scotch or two and give me my brother 20 bucks. And like, you know, look out for us. And so the church was a big part of that. And I always credit that as my later development into like meditation and yoga and that kind of thing. It's a huge thing.”

“And we were the quarterbacks. So we had to have our brains working. So we started having fish on Friday before the game. But she would like my mom. You know, we'd have a scapular on, you know, and we would have a cross that would be taped to our thigh pad. You know, we would have something taped to our shoulder pads. Like we were, we were decked out. We were ready.”

So, yeah, I mean, it was just, and it was Bochi, it was picnics, it was Sunday dinner, it was, you know, pasta, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays, pasta fazula on Friday.

“Yeah, it wasn't an elite Catholic school. It was a working class Catholic school, like back in the day where the dad would work a couple extra shifts a month to pay for the tuition. And the tuition wasn't crazy, but it was more, you know, it was a choice that you made to send your kid to a Catholic school. you know, guys that worked in Steel Mills kids and the guys who worked at the auto plants kids and the suppliers kids and just work in class. And that's kind of how we grew up.”

“You got to pick a side, you know, and for whatever reason, you know, being that age, you know, you don't have quite the relationship with your dad that you have with your mom. And then there were some ups and downs along the way, but that was the house, and my grandparents lived two blocks down, and our lady of Mount Carmel Catholic School was one block away. So that was like, that was, where were my going, you know, the neighbor kids where our best friend's growing up. So, yeah, I mean, but it was all, you know, it was kind of very working class. Like I went to Catholic school. I went to Our Lady Mount Carmel Catholic School. I went to John F. Kennedy Catholic High School and played sports a whole nine yards. But it wasn't.”

“It was just kind of an acrimonious divorce. And like, you know, I'm going to be 50 and like people my generation now like handle it so much different. Like, you know, 1979, it was like a death match. You know, that's just how things went down back then. It's like a steel cage match between your parents.

“Yeah, we reconnect. When I got married, my wife, you know, to her credit kind of called him up and said, this is insanity. You need to know your son and your sons. And that was the process. And so now we're like rock solid. That's great. It's great. It's a great story. Yeah. It really is.”

“Yeah, no, I don't think so either. I mean, you have to really, as a Democrat at this point, like it's got to be a really egregious kind of violation of the values of the party and whatever. As a Republican, they're just like, you know, Charlie Chris hugged Barack Obama. Like, let's go get him. You know what I mean? Like in the middle of a complete economic collapse. Let's go after them. That kind of thing. I think that's happening more and more. And it could be one interview you've done with the wrong person or you took a picture with the wrong person. Like that could they're looking for that stuff.”

“I think they're going to try, but you know, they're up for election again next year, and they know none of them want a primary. Now they're being called chairman, right? And so they don't want to give that up. And so they're not going to risk a primary against the red meat crowd and sacrifice their position. And I think this has been the problem with the Republican Party is they continue to kick the can down the road, hoping that there's something breaks and they'll be able to maintain their power and yet things will break. But I just don't see it happening. I just don't see it happening. And I don't see them being able to take on in any significant way.”

“Yeah, no shot. I mean, like the tails wagon, the dog, and that never happened when Nancy Pelosi was speaker. And I remember going back to the war, you know, going back to Dennis Kucinich and there were some progressives who, you know, once we took over in 06, January of 2007, we wanted to get out of the war. And, you know, you couldn't get out fast enough for some of the progressives. They weren't going to vote for getting out of Iraq in six months or nine months or whatever the number was at that point. And I just remember seeing Nancy Pelosi on the floor talking to these progressive members and they all voted for it. They all voted for the compromise. And they all voted for the compromise on the Affordable Care Act and on everything that we did together because of her.”

“And so it also funds the attending physician. And so like McCarthy was up on the house floor, minority leader, and he starts going after the attending physician of the House of Representatives, like Dr. Moynihan, who's like the greatest guy. He's your doctor, you know. He organized, he takes care of the members of Congress. And this guy uses his position as minority leader on the House floor to publicly trash the attending physician who's the attending physician going to do go to the House floor and respond to this?”

“I had to see the shit show. And so, yeah, I think it's just going to be a continuation of kind of what we think is going to happen. It's the debt ceiling. It's the appropriations process. It's what lever can we pull to cause chaos. And that'll happen through the committee process with Hunter Biden and that whole thing and now the files, the classified material.

The transition has been weird because you're just so, you're always so geared up towards a campaign or it was on the appropriations committee. So where are the bills and where are they at and what do we have in them? And like you're home, you know, and that the honeydew list gets a little longer. I'm coaching my eight-year-old's basketball team and flag football team. That's been like a hoot just to kind of be there with him. It's just been a lot of fun. It's been a whole new thing”
