Yeah.

Yeah.

In 2024, Trump ran on, I'm going to bring peace to the Middle East.

And he has got this deal in Gaza.

I'm definitely not going to go in the rabbit hole of what the Gaza deal looks like, etc.

And those voters also kind of rented Trump for one election and then given the chance to vote on other issues with Gaza not top of mind, didn't vote for Republicans.

They turned out they were very easy for Democrats to flip back.

I think his numbers on foreign policy went up a little bit and then nothing else did.

Like this is a little reminiscent of the George H.W.

Bush problem in the in the 90s.

Great job on foreign policy.

We don't care.

Things cost too much.

And that's certainly true for, yeah, first generation Americans who are also getting that they're getting more racist rhetoric from social media, from conservatives on social media than they would have before.

I think just it has changed who is posting on it.

People are bolder.

They're they're worried.

Yeah, and it hasn't solved the Democrats problem because I think.

The question for them in 2028 will be, if we put you back in charge, do you let the border fly open again and people come into the country?

That turns out to be unpopular.
