He is not especially interested in domestic politics this term.
I mean, this term is in so many ways not recognizable to the first one.
It's not a binary.
It doesn't mean that he's never going to pay attention.
Right.
But certainly, if he had been seeing the poll numbers that he has now, that he does actually have by all external metrics and some from his own internal pollsters, if he had been seeing the complaints about affordability from his own base, if he had been seeing how vocally angry members of his own base were about
the war in Iran, he would have been more responsive in term one.
Now he is really doing the things that he wants to do because he is very, very concerned with and focused on leaving his
indelible imprint on Washington and on the world.
And he we write about this.
You can't argue that he has been an unbelievably consequential figure.
He's certainly the most consequential president of my lifetime.
I'm in my 50s, but he you know, I think he will be the most consequential figure for the next few years going forward.
And so on something like the housing bill, just to bring it back to your question, he wasn't interested in this housing bill.
This was a bipartisan housing bill that Republicans wanted, that Democrats wanted.
That's not his personal priority.
And he doesn't really care that it is going to hurt the Republican Party because he is not on the ballot this fall.
But Jonathan may have another thought on this.
No, I co-sign, Maggie.
I co-sign what you just said.
