The exchange escalated when Danning's comment about "your people" drew Levit's attention. The phrase, ostensibly referring to conservatives, lingered in the air, and Danning found himself trapped. His hesitation was evident, as he navigated the implications of his words. “I meant conservatives,” he clarified, yet the undertone of his statement suggested something more insidious.

It was clear he was losing control of the conversation, desperately trying to regain the upper hand as the studio’s atmosphere grew increasingly electric.
