And that's on top of the fact that Democratic energy around the election is sky high.

So you're going to have lots of Democrats motivated to vote.

You have lots of Republicans discouraged.

You have lots of infrequent voters who are just angry and not going to come out to vote.

And it could be a total collapse.

And I do not understand that.

I just cannot get into the psychology of a Republican lawmaker who looks at the objective political conditions of this year and says to themselves, I'm going to hug the president even closer.

It makes no sense.

I watch a lot of movies with my kids.

That's how it goes.

And I recently showed them a movie that I liked a lot when I was their age.

And it is the 1990 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles film directed by Steve Barron.

But more relevantly for our purposes, the production company is Golden Harvest, which is a Hong Kong production company, did a lot of martial arts films.

And so, you know, I have fond memories of this from when I was a little kid.

And I'm watching this again with my kids.

And I'm like, okay, first of all, this movie, much darker than I remember it being.

It's kind of like, it's actually quite gritty.

The first Ninja Turtles movie is quite gritty.

And then the fight choreography is excellent.

It's exceptionally well made.
