And I said, no. matched

And then he told me, well, if anybody does, just let me know and I'll have them killed because I'm a senator. matched

And if you know Lindsey, that is exactly where his form of humor would go. matched

He would bomb the toilet, but it was useful to have him around. matched

Yeah. matched

This is one thing, and I don't want to dominate this even, I mean, I knew Lindsay for almost 30 years, and my opinions about him changed a lot over that time. matched

But one of the things that I think people underappreciate is that as a partisan, and you're both right, Michael and Drew, matched

As a partisan, a lot of the role that Lindsay had was keeping weak Republicans in line. matched

And that's something that he was actually doing. matched

I think people underappreciate this iconic moment that has been repeatedly shared since his death of him defending Brett Kavanaugh. matched

Everyone sort of focuses on the fact that he is attacking the Democrats with moral authority and with total strength in his argument. matched

he's also sending a message to the guy who's sitting at the end of that committee line, Jeff Flake, about you better not be a pussy on this because you've got to hold the line and we will judge you if you don't hold the line. matched

And I think that that's a role that he served within this Trump era. matched

to great effectiveness. matched

And I think without his voice in the room, Trump's going to have some problems with the Senate that he maybe could have had helped by the fact that Lindsay was the guy who was advocating in the room and who could convince people that, yes, this is the right thing to do. matched

This is the right way to make a stand. matched

Whenever these people talk, I just hear the two peasants at the beginning of Monty Python talking about being an anarcho-syndicalist commune. matched

And it's like, it's just like, this is absurd. matched

It's absolutely absurd. matched

It denies everything that we know about America's history. matched
