The dust has not settled in New York. It shifted. On this episode, Peter Vazquez walks listeners through a post-election landscape where Monroe County’s old firewall collapsed, Greece and Perinton flipped, and City Hall doubles down on “progress.”
Callers light up the lines: Keith demanding Trump turn fully domestic and fix the kitchen table economy; John warning of nickel and dime governance; Lorraine pressing the information war the Right keeps losing; Charles pointing to turnout math and hard lessons ahead; Gary tracing thirty years of classroom conditioning and broken voter rolls.
Peter connects the dots: culture beats campaigns, schools precede city halls, and parties that ignore their own “Growth and Opportunity” playbook keep reliving the same losses. He uses National Men Make Dinner Day as a parable: lead at home first, model dignity, and rebuild the foundations of God, country, and family.
He contrasts poetic promises of “free” solutions with the prose of reality, crime, costs, and a city told “this democracy is yours,” though not for those who still believe virtue, work, and faith matter.
This is not despair. It is a summons. Turnout is a duty. Culture is the battleground. Leadership begins at the dinner table and radiates outward to precincts, school boards, and budgets. Truth has fallen in the streets; pick it up. Join The Next Steps Show and take your place in the rebuilding.
