And I'm just going to accept the outcome.
And so I think that as we look towards the twenty twenty six midterm elections, we have to assume that all of the things that he and his cabinet and and band of merry vote suppressors have floated are all potential.
And we need to take that seriously and literally.
Great to see you again, Jen.

And Haley Stevens, by the way, she was a critical part of my team that helped the American auto industry come roaring back.
Yeah, so look, I think, Jen, you got it right in your lead up, which is it's not that any one of these things is in and of itself going to cause us to not have free and fair elections.
It is the cumulative impact of those things, plus his various statements.
Remember, going back to last August, he said that he believed the states were his agents for the counting and tabulation of ballots.
That means that he believes he is in charge of what ballots get counted and not.
And he said that before, you know, all those things that you listed that he's done with the Postal Service and the like.
You know, he has repeatedly, repeatedly said that Republicans should take over the vote counting.
And he suggested 15 places.
Well, how many places did he just deploy election monitors to?
Fifteen.
All in Democratic jurisdictions, mostly in blue states.
So this latest thing with the EAC, with the Election Assistance Commission,
is just a further sign that what he wants to do is to remove off the playing field any referee that might call the game honestly.
Anyone who might speak up or stand in his way that's in the federal government is going to be sidelined.
And that's the reason why he didn't just fire the Democrats.
He actually made the Republican resign so that there is no Election Assistance Commission.
