Not enough of those and just you lose by a few points, you know, as much as we won it in November, but we won it by point nine percent. There was not a lot of room for it to move left at all. So we likely had a bit of that. And then if you have the enthusiasm gap, if you have Democrats spending more because they really want to win because they're really fired up.

And they're also just, as we say, the higher prop party right now. They get more meaning out of politics. They invest more of themselves into politics. They're more likely to track every single race, however obscure it is. They're going to be able to pick up one point, it looks like. And we've got to...

continue working on our strategy to get people whose engagement with voting as they may be voted for Trump in 2016 and voted for him in 2024 and otherwise have largely avoided voting. We need to work on the strategy of getting those people to consistently vote in midterm elections and in these off cycle elections that well,

Because if the Democrats are the high prop party, they'll have the advantage in every election that is not a November election.

They've also dialed Milwaukee back to 50%, whereas it was over 60% before. So that's not great. Not good. Yeah. That's not helpful. Dane is 55. So you're looking at about half of the vote in both those places. And I'll be honest, we're running a bit behind where we were in those counties a few months ago.

Sure, sure. So especially as we've been saying, this is it's a reflection that we have to be ready for races where Donald Trump isn't on the ballot. I know we've you know, he's been talking about finding a way to go for a third term.

But I will tell you, even if they find a way, it won't be with Trump as the number one guy on the ballot, because that is definitely constitutionally out of the picture. So you're going to have to have someone we have to start.

We have to develop the strategy for winning a post-Trump GOP on a Trumpian message, we hope, on a Trumpian platform, but there's clearly a singular charisma to Donald Trump that drives turnout, that really inspires people. And we haven't seen it pan out that without that, you can muster a nationwide majority. We can still win races. We can still do very well at the state level.

But that tipping point of getting the national majority that can save the country, you right now need Trump. And there's some systemic issues there that we have made that bargain of the GOP has become more populist. It's become more economically middle and even lower class instead of having as many high income voters.

And what that means is you've swapped out a lot of the people who care the most about politics. And that's not to say that that's a good thing. It's often a bad thing that a person cares obsessively about politics. We have people who care a lot about their church. They care a lot about their civic organizations. They care a lot about their families. All of us have finite amounts of attention.

And if you care a ton about your church and a ton about your family, you have less amount of care to invest into politics. And the left has a large share of the people who derive attention the most meaning in their life from their political engagement. You go to church on Sunday. They go to their Trans Lives Matters rally on Sunday, and that is church for them. You tithe to your church.
