This election is still a dead heat, according to most polls. In a fight with such wafer-thin margins, we need reporters on the ground talking to the people Trump and Harris are courting. Your support allows us to keep sending journalists to the story.

Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young fans: there's a chance the band is getting back together. Well, at least according to one of the four members.

It's no secret that band member Graham Nash has held some resentment toward musician David Crosby during the past two years.

It's gotten so heated that the possibility of a band reunion seemed like it was off the table. But now, Nash has spoken out and given us some hope.

Despite their personal differences, there seems to be one thing that could reunite Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young: their hatred for President Trump and the current U.S. political climate.

They'd have to be talking to each other first, however.

“Here’s how I feel about it: I believe that the issues that are keeping us apart pale in comparison to the good that we can do if we get out there and start talking about what’s happening,” Nash says of getting the supergroup back together. “So I’d be totally up for it even though I’m not talking to David and neither is Neil. But I think that we’re smart people in the end and I think we realize the good that we can do.”

The statement from Nash does come as a surprise, though. As of 2016, Nash seemed to blame Crosby for the demise of Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young in an interview with Dutch magazine Lust For Life.

Nash said, "[Crosby] has been just f—ing awful,” adding, “I’ve been there and saved his f—ing ass for 45 years, and he treated me like shit. … David has ripped the heart out of Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young.”

If the four members were able to put aside their personal beef, in favor of the music, it looks like fans might get another chance to see the boys back in action.

It seems that with the current chaos, Nash would be willing to do anything to fight back against the current administration.

“You have to keep up your will to fight,” he says. “We cannot let this man undermine everything we have fought for over the last 30 years, which is what’s happening by the way."
