35. That's the key. Soledad will shut them down.

She'll ask for proof to back up their bullshit, or offer the proof herself. Joe just talks over everyone, and once he's yelled for five minutes, all the old rich men just say "Please sir, may I have some more."

Once MoJo put the wall of waving American flags behind him, I knew the show was dead. It started with one flag...now there are three. And with each passing day, Joe looks (and sounds) more and more like the cranky old man from the animated movie "UP."

Soledad has some insight, because of her heritage. Joe's insight comes from being raised in one of the most racist, Republican corners of the country, being groomed for a role in BushCo, getting away with murder, and white privilege. He is just a dick.
