of like rearmament or reform in the system without all of this insane adventurism people would say okay that makes sense you know all of this and of course by the way 200 billion of the 1 trillion dollars is on tricare last time i checked like the healthcare system it's a disaster from everybody i've spoken to so yeah the level of reform and all that we would need would be
titanic and also this is where doge comes into play they poison the well on this is you know they never even looked over at the pentagon yeah so i look at this uh president i look at this like polling now and i just think about the overall like sweeping democratic effect that this is going to have people will very rationally not want to give a dollar more to defense under this administration because they don't want to see more things like this
And then in the interim, we still got, what, three more years to go.
Let's put B3 up there on the screen from Nate Silver.
He makes a point.
Trump's approval hits the 30s.
Can his numbers get any lower?
It's a genuine question.

I don't think in modern history we've ever had a president who has been at this low at this time and had any meaningful recovery.

the GOP, and about the ramifications.
So if you see this type of situation take place, I mean, this is where the Senate starts to come into play, right?
When's the last time we lived with something like this?
08, I want to say?
08 with the financial crisis and Iraq?
I mean, that's when crazy shit happens.
That's when Democrats were getting elected to
in like North Dakota, right?
Obama won North Dakota.
