So same thing with Barack Obama, same thing with Donald Trump, though my relationship with President Trump's been a bit more up and down. through the years. Um, and, and you're not, you're not, you're not a defender. That's the point. I've got to say the same thing with Joe Biden. If I wanted to be a defender of Joe Biden, I would remain a defender of Joe Biden.

I haven't talked to Joe Biden since I said he needed to get out of the race. I did. It's like, it was, you know, uh, but, but again, me defending, I understand some people in some media spheres need to defend Joe need to defend the flag, need to defend whatever they need to defend, you know, I just have no need. Because that's not why I get paid. I get paid for speaking my mind.

And if people say, oh, well, why didn't you attack Biden more? I did on Afghanistan. I did on the southern border. I did on, you know, the pin swimmer. I did on, you know, all of these other things. It's just like, I am really blessed. When I got elected to Congress at a very young age, I got elected despite the fact that Newt Gingrich and the Republican Party campaigned hard against me.
