There's probably a third of that Senate conference. There's a little concerned about the way that Tulsi has talked about intelligence, uh, apparatus over the last 10 years. Right. And they're more than a little concerned if, if she was a democratic nominee, they would have voted to absolutely crush that nomination.

But the power, the political power of Trump and part of what he's done over the last three weeks in terms of picking issues and having 60% of the American people on side of it is, is forcing everybody to a position to reevaluate this. Ultimately they work for Donald Trump. And that's what it is that they're voting to support.

Do they have misgivings about Tulsi Gabbard or maybe RFK and the way that he's going to handle the question of abortion in HHS? Sure, they do. They're going to have issues with that. But ultimately, they trust Donald Trump. Where McConnell is comes into all of that is he's just sort of traditionally where he's always been. But the party has moved. And the party is very much a Trump party.

He is a Reagan Republican. And I think if you were to go back in time in some kind of like a Marty McFly DeLorean and look at the way a Republican party 20 years ago would have evaluated these nominations, it looks very much like the way that he has. I don't think that he's doing what he's doing out of spite for Donald Trump. It's just he doesn't feel the same political pressures.

Yeah, exactly right. And he's obviously not going to do that. He thinks that Rubio is a terrific nomination from what I read in his statements. But I also think he's going to be a force for good in terms of the team as you get into these thorny issues of reconciliation and budget and taxes and all these things. Because his ideology hasn't changed a lick.

It is just not reflected when you get into that more libertarian area of defense and foreign affairs in particular, where a lot of Republicans still have issues with that. He just doesn't feel the same political pressures as everybody else who's gonna vote the way he's gonna vote.

It's gone both ways. But I think the story is not told yet, Megan. I think what's going to happen very quickly is we're going to get into a legislative discussion where the crux of the Trump agenda has to be litigated. And this is the hardest part. What he's done so far has been unbelievably great. But ultimately, you're going to need Congress to try to work some of these things through.
