“I get caught up in this disagreement with some of my journalist friends. I don’t really talk to people who voted for Donald Trump. It’s not – I don’t need to talk to them,” Johnson said, “Because when I look at the last election, 90 million eligible voters didn’t vote. That’s the many people we can reach to understand that they have the power to change the system in practice.”
Charlamane disagreed.
“I think you should talk to people who voted for Trump, and the reason you think you should do is because you understand why, and I think it’s just a failure,” he said. “They didn’t know. They couldn’t understand why. And it was like, ‘Oh, you – how can you vote? [Trump]? “Did you actually have a conversation with them? Because a lot of that just relates to a number of policies they disagree with. ”
Johnson has expressed an agreement with Charlamane, attempting to clear her position, suggesting that while some Trump voters are motivated by racism, others may have valid concerns.
“Let it be clear. There are a lot of people who have privileges. I understand exactly why they voted for race-centric Donald Trump. “But to your point, if you think about where I grew up, if you think about people I might not talk about anymore, high school, college, whatever it is, they probably voted for Donald Trump for some reason.”
“So, what is the conversation? Is it the economy? But I’m continuing with all those questions, because I believe others are doing your job?” Johnson continued. “But the reality is that these billionaires aren’t paying you a fair wage. What do you think that is? I think it’s important… Thanks for making it clear.

And I was basically hoping to go back to the late 90s… And it looks like Trump has returned to the late 90s. I want inappropriate jokes. I want some fun.”
