you know, country libertarian type who was always smiling and kind of happy and knew that he was basically irrelevant to being someone who was aggressively going after the most important person in politics in America, not just in his party, and doing so in ways that repeatedly involved him lying blatantly
about all these sorts of things related to the Epstein files, as Ben was saying earlier.
So I think that there is something to that, Michael, but I haven't had him on the psychoanalysis couch personally.
Either that or it's just the demon.
As long as I don't have to have a health checkup because I never blast those for some reason.
So I just wanted to add, you made a comment about political media.
I think that if we had a functional political media that wasn't just interested in carrying water for the Democrats...
The narrative after last night would be that Republicans are way more unified than Democrats are.
Over the course of the past couple of months, we've seen Democrats prevail in multiple primaries.
We've seen the situation play out in Maine.
We've seen the election of Mamdani.
We've seen all of these different situations where the DSA-backed candidate, the AOC-backed candidate,
has prevailed over people that the Democrats have actually preferred or the establishment has even anointed on their side.
And nobody's talking about that story in the legacy media because it's an inconvenient story and it's actually true.
The fact is that they're only united by the fact that they all loathe Trump.
And it's just a contest of how much they loathe him between them.
And that's, I think, the real story of what's going on on the left today, which is far more divided than the right after everything that's played out in these primaries.
Yeah, I agree.
They don't have to get shellacked in the midterms, though.
They just have to do badly.
