Now they disapprove of him.

But often it's not that they disapprove of him because gas prices are up or anything else.

I mean, it's because they think he's covering up the Charlie Kirk shooting.

It's because, you know, all of these other reasons that are kind of crazy.

But what was interesting about this focus group, as you mentioned, is that they, you know, I think liberals have taken a lot of heat for, you know, saying it's a false flag or whatever.

But I think increasingly Republicans, you know, who are already sort of in this conspiracy theory stew beforehand, they're saying, oh, yeah, that's clearly staged.

And I think emotionally, I think for liberals, you can look at the right where anything politically unfavorable that happens to Trump, they'll say it's the deep state or, you know, California wildfires were caused by satellites shooting lasers down to trick everyone about global warming and the Marjorie Taylor Greene thing.

I mean, there's so many every time anything happens.

And so then you look and you say, well, why should I, you know, have to grapple with, you know, what this what this means that there are all these assassination attempts on Trump or something that's politically unfavorable to me?

Maybe I should just dismiss it, too, as a fall.

Yeah, I think that's essentially what's going on.

I mean, I do think there are some ideological goals here.

Like I do think that Trump is, or Tucker is actually, you know, more of an isolationist than say Laura Loomer or Donald Trump.

But I do think that people like Tucker, Megyn Kelly, I mean, these are like really mercenary people and they're seeing which way the wind is blowing and they're saying,
