I was really proud of how, at large, you have your crazies always, but we really do believe in standby. The fact that Trump is threatening our democracy is violating so many of our most basic American principles.
But still, you saw Biden at the White House with Trump able to acknowledge democracy has to come first and we're not going to do what MAGA did last time and lie about the election for four years, try to overturn it, all those sorts of things.
Right. That's why I think it's important on my show to have on the other side. So I'm not just seeing one opinion the whole time. All right, guys, we got Luke Beasley on today. Post-election, man. How are you feeling? Not as great as I was feeling before, to be honest. Yeah. You thought she was going to win it?
I don't know what I believed. I've said before, I have a hard time deciphering between optimism and my actual prediction. I definitely knew Trump could win. I don't think I was expecting the electoral...
beating right it was landslide right he won by like 100 votes yeah i didn't even i didn't expect that i thought it'd be way closer i thought some of the swing states would go her way yeah and he won every single one i believe yep all seven which is crazy crazy but you get in these these bubbles when you're on social media right when like like i log into twitter and it's just all conservative stuff so that's why i think it's important on my show to have on the other side so i'm not just seeing one opinion the whole time
Yeah, I appreciate that. Yeah. And I was really proud of how at large you have your crazies always, but at large how the Democratic coalition has responded because we really do believe in standby. The fact that Trump is threatening our democracy is violating so many of our most basic American principles.
But still, you saw Biden at the White House with Trump able to acknowledge democracy has to come first and we're not going to do what MAGA did last time and lie about the election for four years, try to overturn it and all those sorts of things. Yeah, it was cool to see that video of Biden and Trump together. They seemed like they were on better terms.
Yeah, I think Biden was just being the bigger man. You think so?
Yeah, I mean, it's crazy. That imagery is not something Trump ever gave to Biden. If you remember right when Trump lost the election from that point to when he left begrudgingly on January 20th, 2021. He was working in allegedly illegal ways like the fraudulent slate of electors scheme to keep himself in power. And he was telling his followers, I'm not leaving office. It's not going to happen.
