charge of the economy. He's not in charge of children's suicides etc. I mean he cares about those things obviously. He's a human and he's American so of course he cares about those things you assume. But that's why I'm not bothered by him because I see him in context. If you see him out of context and you imagine that he is responsible for the economy and those other things then he would be doing…

And that I would say Tulsi compared to AOC would be, I hate to say this because I really like Tulsi Gabbard as a political voice, but I feel like she's the Mike Pence to AOC being Trump. I hate to say that. That's really not a fair thing to say. But Tulsi doesn't bring the heat, you know, the energy. And partly because her personality is sort of low key. So she brings capability and good things that you like and would be very capable president in my opinion. I could get behind that. But I don't know if she has the star power.
It would be an interesting contest. How would you like to see a presidential contest someday between Tulsi Gabbard and AOC? Just woman and woman versus woman. That'd be pretty interesting. I could get into that. That would be fun. And maybe time, maybe it's time for two women to be running for president. That would be the real, that would be the real up, wouldn't it?
Somebody says she's charismatic and dangerous like many evil leaders of the past. So she's added some nuance to what AOC has to what she's saying about border and getting rid of ICE and opening the borders and stuff. And all of it sounds crazy, right? When you first hear it you're like what are you talking about opening the borders? That's the worst idea I've ever heard in the entire world.
But if you actually hear her talk about it in more depth what she's talking about is figuring out how to do it. And the idea is that there might be a big idea of just rethinking everything that would make aggressive border control not necessary. That it doesn't mean it would be bad for the United States but there's the feeling that you could get from where we are to some better place and we don't know what the path is now.
What do you think of that? What do you think of the fact that AOC's plan for immigration is we'll do something that nobody's thought of yet and I haven't thought of it either but it'll be really good and it'll fix things. What do you think of a plan like that? Is your first thought, "Oh my God she doesn't have a plan. There's no plan." Right? That's your first thought.
Here's my first thought. That's the leader I want. Now I'm not saying AOC. I'm saying I want a leader who talks exactly like that. That's exactly what I want to hear. I want to hear that here's where we want to get to. Here's where we are and we have no idea how to get th

ere but damn it we're going to figure it out. We're going to figure it out. And if we can't figure it out well at least we tried. That's the leader I want. I don't want somebody who says you know I'm not even going to try to get there unless I know all the steps. When Kennedy said we're going to the moon did he say we already know how to get to the moon? No. The reason Kennedy is called such a gr…
