So if somebody was running and they blatantly said, like, I don't want to use the fascist word, but if they said, like, I want to be an authoritarian, I'm going to abolish all elections, you would say... Sure, he's saying that, but I don't think he can actually do it. So it's okay if he runs for president. You don't care at all as long as you feel like the guardrails are going to prevent it.

Really? Yeah, because I think the issue is, is one, when it's election time, Republicans are spineless in office. And I don't know how many congressmen would support what he wants just because they want to win reelection or because they think it's inevitable anyway.

Sure, but I mean, like, look at what happened with, like, Kinzinger and Cheney, right, who were very, like, staunchly anti-Trump after J6 for that select committee, right? Kinzinger didn't even run again, and Cheney lost her election by, I think, the widest margin that anybody has ever lost an election ever. Right.

Yeah, I guess it's just, it's a surprising position to me for if we're looking at like principled stances of government, the idea that a man who has, and I think we both agree on this, that Donald Trump's, Donald Trump's only allegiance is to Donald Trump, right? We agree on that. The only thing he cares about is Donald Trump. I don't think it's the only thing he cares about.
