But, you know, they they are they are reaping the spoils of, you know, the United States retreat.

from global leadership, from the, you know, the, the destruction of USAID and the, the voice of America and, you know, our pullback on so many aspects of our, you know, intelligence apparatus.

I mean, we're doing a whole host of things that are part of this global retreat and China is literally filling the vacuum and, and,

portraying itself as predictable, stable, respecting the sovereignty of other countries, and lining its pocket with markets that we should be competing in.

I'm concerned.

Yeah.

And I'm concerned because, uh, you know, Trump is telling us as he often does what he aims to do.

Um, you know, the, the effort at redistricting, the effort at trying to steal the voter rolls and the voter information from various states to extort Minnesota for its voter rolls, stealing the ballots from 2020 in Fulton County, uh,

You know, that wasn't about the 2020 election primarily.

That's about trying to create doubt in the integrity of our elections and use that as an excuse to take over elections and jurisdictions, just as you said, nationalize the elections in some 15 places.

Because I think they're fearful that they can't win in a free and fair election.

Now, so what do we have to do about that?

Doesn't mean we give up and say, okay, well, forget it.

There's not going to be an election.

We just, you know, we have to do two things at once.

We've got to compete and win with the best candidates and the best policies that serve the American people, working on and being committed to the things that people care about from affordability, lost health care,

You know, housing and rental costs way too high.

Electricity costs way too high.

Food prices still way too high.

He's done nothing about any of that.
