  We got a question for American mamas. Do you feel better about your college
• 0:03
  kid wearing Maga hats this time around? Well, let's ask our American mamas.
• 0:08
  Alma mama, she said, and joining us now we are American mama's
• 0:22
  turn Ediville and Kimberly Burlison. So, in twenty sixteen, if somebody was
• 0:26
  wearing a Maga hat on a college campus, that was a little difficult to
• 0:31
  do. In twenty twenty, I would imagine it was actually worse to do
• 0:34
  to wear a Maga hat, y'all tell me, But that was kind of
• 0:37
  my impression. I was actually scared to death. My son bought I don't
• 0:40
  even know, probably a dozen Maga hats because I kept hiding them. He
• 0:44
  even bought one that said make America Grite again in Japanese, like he was
• 0:49
  determined to wear it, and I kept hiding him because I was like,
• 0:52
  no, they are a Friday mind. I was so afraid of these people
• 0:55
  on the left because they just seemed to be a little psycho when they saw
• 0:59
  anything. They're so triggered by it. Yeah, they're so triggered. But
• 1:02
  something's changed, something's changed right now, and I'm seeing where people I'm seeing
• 1:07
  more flags in front yards, I'm seeing more Trumps in front yards, and
• 1:11
  this popularity that. I mean, he's already so popular, but there's something
• 1:15
  different, there's a shift, and I don't feel as nervous about it.
• 1:19
  I feel a little more. I feel like the attitude right now is I
• 1:23
  dare you to come and take it. That's what I feel the attitude is
• 1:26
  of the American public. Do you think that that's just the people on the
• 1:32
  right have become more confident in wearing it, or do you think that the
• 1:36
  left is actually a little more timid this time than the booth. I think
• 1:40
  the confidence is there. Plus, they just went through hell with these people
• 1:44
  because they have destroyed so much of our lives and we're done. So I
• 1:48
  do think the confidence is there. But I also feel like there's so many
• 1:51
  on the left that are in that like, oh yeah, it's really bad
• 1:55
  right now. You know with the Biden era that they're not as in your
• 1:59
  throat pounding. They don't have an argument, they don't have a valid right
• 2:01
  anymore. Like before they didn't know what kind of president Biden would be.
• 2:06
  They just knew they hated Trump. They have that Trump derangement syndrome. And
• 2:09
  so not only were we worried about the you know, our kids saying who
• 2:15
  they wanted to vote for, wearing a Maga hat or whatever, but like
• 2:20
  when Steele got to college, he realized that even many of the professors,
• 2:23
  you have to squelch your own ideology, in your own convictions because they have
• 2:30
  the power to pass or fail you. And so I remember that first year,
• 2:35
  you know, we had many many talks and he it was one of
• 2:39
  those things where I said, just lay low, just you know, just
• 2:43
  lay low. I don't know, we don't know who to trust, but
• 2:45
  I do. I'm like Kimberly, I feel like that now we've got the
• 2:49
  argument. The proof is in the pudding. You mentioned that that when Steele
• 2:53
  got to college, he was like, oh, I guess I can't really
• 2:57
  speak my mind with some of these professors slaves at school. Yeah, is
• 3:01
  he having the same thought process? Actually, yes, it really doesn't come
• 3:06
  up as much as it did before. I think that's when things are so
• 3:08
  ramped up and ramped up. And so, you know, I think all
• 3:13
  the college kids kind of like, unless they are super liberal, they do
• 3:19
  they have no problem voicing. You said, so we saw what the frat
• 3:23
  boys did. Yeah, so the when they were protecting when they were protecting
• 3:27
  the American flag, they they just kind of sent a rally call because I
• 3:30
  believe campuses all over kind of saw it was a contagious thing that they saw,
• 3:35
  and then they wanted to be seen as being protective of the American flag
• 3:38
  the American way. So I think that that also lends his hand to these
• 3:43
  kids feeling a little more courage Well, courage is contagious. It is.
• 3:46
  Yeah, that when you say, when you see someone else finally take a
• 3:50
  stand, you're like, well, yeah, I'm going to do that too.
• 3:53
  You know, I think you'll see. Well, they did that on
• 3:55
  the NBC show What Would You Do? Remember that they'd have a situation and
• 4:00
  they trying to fake a racial incident, and if no one stood up,
• 4:03
  then no one stood up. But if one person stood up, then soon
• 4:05
  everybody was standing up. And that courageous is contagious. Yes, I wrote
• 4:11
  a post about that show a few years ago because that show actually gave me
• 4:16
  hope for where we were because the news media outlets were saying how terrible and
• 4:20
  divided and racist and all of that. Every single time they did a what
• 4:26
  would you do. Yeah, the proof was that people stood up against racism.
• 4:30
  They stood up again. People are good and innately good, and there
• 4:33
  was like you had a few that might go along with the negative side of
• 4:38
  it, and that brings you back to the maga hat. Yeah, you
• 4:41
  might have a few that will be very upset about the maga hat. But
• 4:45
  I think most Americans would either agree with the maga hat or they're like,
• 4:48
  Okay, I'm going to keep walking. Well, just look at the rallies
• 4:50
  that Trump has and where he has them. He goes into, like you
• 4:55
  just said, he goes into the places where he's normally not you think he's
• 4:59
  not gonna be well, like New Jersey, the rons and tons of people
• 5:03
  show up and then you have AOC go and here's just and what's his name,
• 5:10
  Oh, I can't think of that congressman. Yeah, the fire alarm
• 5:13
  guy. Yes. Anyway, so they go in to the same place and
• 5:16
  they're trying to act like they're doing this big rally. There's very few people
• 5:19
  and they're all white. At Trump's it was white, Latino, black,
• 5:24
  and there was thousands for them. It was a few hundred and they were
• 5:28
  white. And it's like, how do y'all get to continue telling a narrative
• 5:30
  when our eyes can see that what's happening right now with Trump and the reason
• 5:35
  that we feel courage and courageous to wear the stuff is because we see everything's
• 5:41
  pushing to the right and people have opened their eyes, especially the young people,
• 5:45
  black, white, Latino. They're all moving that way because they're like,
• 5:47
  Uh, this isn't from me. I don't believe y'all anymore. You
• 5:50
  used me before, You're not gonna use me again. Amen. If you
