Ender, would you be interested in a Zoom chat?

I am genuinely curious about what we're talking about.
It's one focus of my podcast ("The Reluctant Cynic Podcast, the political podcast that has nothing to do with politics"): How do we un-disgust politics?
I'm not arguing against you. I purposefully didn't watch his speech. I'm planning to watch it and read a transcript myself over the weekend.
What I'm much more interested in doing is helping people with basic constituent service: helping people solve problems in law, government, and politics.
We both seem to agree that what passes for "political communications" these days is atrocious. It certainly doesn't serve democracy, and I think it's corrosive.
But how do we fix the problem?
We can't fix the problem until we identify the problem. In this case, I'm trying to understand what you saw as the problem.
Did he make outlandish accusations without backing them up with facts?
Did he make reasonable, informed accusations, but then baselessly attack someone's character?
Or was it just all the usual bullshit and nothing new?
