The country is ideologically divided. There is a strong pro-Trump group and there is a strong anti-Trump group. And
00:00:11
this is not aligned by party. There are a lot of Republicans who do not support Trump. There are some
00:00:17
Democrats that support Trump. And the independents are split. Some of them support Trump and some do not.
00:00:25
So, why are we ignoring it? Why are we continue to report Republicans say that and Democrats says that as opposed to
00:00:34
trying to identify who are the one who support the Trump philosophy and those who do not.
00:00:42
And I think it's clear in almost every domain that we're dealing with, whether
00:00:46
it is climate, trade, abortion, you name it. On every one of those issues, the dividing line is not
00:00:56
party line anymore, but it's rather the alliance with and loyalty to Trump versus opposing Trump.
