<\/p>\nTODD: It is so important for us to find the moments of… I don\u2019t know that it\u2019s “great news” as much as it is verification that America is still here. I\u2019m of the belief right now that we\u2019re in a situation where we\u2019re not a united states — and that may even, at this point, sound almost obvious. I began to say that years ago and some would say, “That is so irresponsible.”<\/p>\n
I began to say, “You know what? When I\u2019m seeing citizens attacked to the streets by terror groups, that means to me that we\u2019re in a state of cold civil war,” and people say it\u2019s wildly irresponsible. And then we watched, of course, this summer that unless you\u2019re… Was it Thomas Friedman at the New York Times who was unaware that cities were burning?<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
We watched all that. So it\u2019s really important, I think, to look at our country and find the instances to know that the American spirit is there. It\u2019s not dead, even in a state like California. Have you ever had a loved one, say, suffering from, you know, an addiction or a mental health crisis that\u2019s sort of long form, and you know they\u2019re in there?<\/p>\n
You know your loved one\u2019s in there, and you see glimpses of the person you know they can be if they\u2019re you unhampered by the chemicals or they\u2019re unhampered by the mental illness — or just sometimes the stress, right? You yourself can find yourself doing things — and me, I\u2019m a great example of this: Doing things I would not do were it not for stress.<\/p>\n
So in the stress our country\u2019s in, Gavin Newsom is facing a recall. In California, the American spirit still exists to such a degree that this perfectly chiseled, crafted, almost humanly Photoshopped Gavin Newsom with no discernible ability to lead other than he is a good-looking man. So he\u2019s good-looking. What other qualities does he have?<\/p>\n
