You'd be like, well, I don't know. Like I wasn't with him in the call. I wasn't you know, I didn't I didn't see the indoctrination they were doing on him. That's kind of my view. It's like they go into this closed information ecosystem, right, where they are only hearing from the MAGA voices in which Donald Trump dominates. That's not the world I live in.

But something in that world corrupts both your mind and your soul. So you go from being interesting and sometimes independent, like Marco Rubio was, to a stooge in which you just take orders. It's like a cult. And I don't understand how it works. And like maybe there's a you know, there's like a magic potion that they give these guys, but they just come out on the other end of it.

I mean, but I have the same like I have the same feeling that you do, right? Because like, I can't, I can't not have some appreciation for the fact that like, he's the only one doing the right thing. But he birthed this. Yes, birth this like this is his baby. And and he he midwifed the Tea Party into existence, which which led to MAGA.
