an auto factory or metal works and it was the kind of place where somebody once said to me and youngstown you could quit a job at 11 in the morning and walk out of syria book you have another job after lunch and suddenly there are no jobs anywhere you know what american carnage is and you know what trumps talking about and the thing is. people were desperate for change they were desperate for a sense that workers mattered and had dignity which is very different from giving them a universal income and saying don't bother us was right driving you to go away and and so the and hillary clinton had closed the door to a populism of the left because she was the opposite of a populist she was somebody who thought that you take $250000.00 for giving a speech to goldman sachs because of course that's just what you did actually 675 for 3 speeches. so you know if the if the door on the left was closed and you wanted out at any price people would take the door to the right and i think that's what happened so how you know where do we start because you you a new report out of youngstown the steel mills

. >> growing up on the north side of youngstown, there were 15 of us in the house.the yard all the time with the older kids. i was raised around gang violence, drug activities. and i had my son. i knew i always wanted to be in my son's life. i didn't have a dad in my life so that gave me an extra edge just to go hard for my son. without him i wouldn't be where i am today, going to college, playing so hard. it's because of him. >> wow, that is a really motivated young man, you can see there. first local player selected came from cal. santa cruz native ashton davis had his name call bid the commissioner in the third round. >> with his 68th pick in the 2020 nfl draft new york jets select ashton davis, defensive back, california. >> davis' trip to the nfl nonconventional walk-on, second team all-american track in 2018. you know he can run a little bit. davis can play safety. he can also be used as a kick returner. had two picks and 55 tackles in his senior season. uh-uh have to wonder, was it meant to be? literally floored when the niners chose his son with the 14th ove

every small business person i talk to in my community from akron to youngstown and points in between, the margins are so small. and you hit it on the last segment that you had with your last guest. if you're a restaurant and your margins of 7%, 8%, you can't have one of every three tables filled up with only two people where you can't do banquets on the side. this is the reality of the situation. if you own a bar and can't have st. paddy's day or memorial day weekend or the aftermath of the fourth of july parade, you'll go under. that's why i think the best solution is to do what congressman ro khanna and i have been doing. direct cash assistance. $2,000 per person that makes under $130,000 a year because you will also take care of that small business person who usually draws their salary from the small business. so, yeah, maybe the business won't necessarily get open, but we need to stabilize things. people are hurting. and when i hear this happy talk from washington from the president, from mnuchin, from all these people like somehow this is -- we're going to bounce right back from
