It's kind of a big freaking deal. I'm not letting it go. And you listen to me. This is going to be very important in the coming days. I'm not letting this go. I want to find out what happened because it can never happen again. Not to a Democrat, not to a Republican, not to a libertarian, not to any United States citizen. You don't get to do that. Why do I bring that up now?
Because who is the ringmaster of that circus? Yes, Adam Schiff. And no, I'm not letting it go.

Yes, absolutely. I mean, I thought some Democrats in that hearing, in the Hegseth hearing, completely embarrassed themselves and looked like a Saturday Night Live skit. And it really, I think, forced some Republicans who had concerns to ask themselves politically, do I want to be associated with that or do I want to be associated with President Trump? And obviously they made their decision.

I think the interesting thing here is I think RFK Jr. will get some Democratic votes. In fact, he may need some Democratic votes. And it's going to be a fine line because I think some of the Democratic questions will be, for instance, he supposedly has talked the other day to some Democratic Senate staff that he is open to seizing patents held by pharmaceutical companies.

Pharmaceutical companies and a lot of Republicans don't like that. He said certain things on abortion. So Democrats, I think in this instance, may try to cause some mischief to try to drive a wedge between some Republicans and RFK Jr.

Megan, I totally agree with you. I mean, we hear it on our show all the time. People who voted for him or were going to vote for him love RFK. They believe in what he advocates. They believe in what he has to say. To Mark's point, he's unearthed and champion issues that at one point were fringe that, you know, on his way out the door, the Biden administration got rid of the red dye. Right.

I mean, I don't think that happens if not for RFK. And one of the things that the Democratic Party has to do is figure out how to win back the RFK vote. We drove him out of the party. We told a lot of his voters, you're kooky. You know, you're a conspiracy theorist. There's no place for you. Trump opened his arms, listened to what he had to say, gave it, you know, some added heft. And here he is.

And so that's why I do think there are smart Democrats who will vote for him to try to hug what he stands for and his voters.
