And I'm not to saying that because I work here. Get started have in the U.S.A. is a lack of unity.

We all know that.

I guess the height of our assemblage was World War II.

99% of Americans were united to defeat the totalitarians in Germany and Italy and Japan.

But now, I don't know, it's a 60-40 split, 60% traditional Americans,

40 don't like the country very much. You know, they're on that side that is basically everything

needs to change. So anyway, there are opposing points of view, and that's a good thing, but they're not respected

as much as they used to be.

And one of the reasons is that people believe what they want to believe, and we'll get into that in a moment.

But there's another big reason why this division is taking play to it, and that is delusion. Many of us in America live in a delusional bubble, not in the real

world. We don't want the real world. We don't want to go anywhere near the real world.

We want to take narcotics. We want to drink ourselves into a stupor.

We want to believe stuff that's insane.

And we seek it out.

We don't want to deal with reality.

That is a very difficult situation to overcome, and that is the subject of this evening's

talking points of memo.
