gonna be my favorite part of election night this year is gonna be when it's like I don't know, like four fifty nine Eastern or whatever and the first polls are about to close and like CNN and MS Now and Fox News are like, Will the Democrats take the house? And then like the thing will flip and then it'll be like we have a projection, Democrats take the house. And Magazine or shit.
We gotta have some sort of like s we gotta have a thing. We need a fantasy football thing. Do we get like a gong or is it like a wheel gun? Can't shoot any guns, can't do that. Um I got yeah, but I don't know. We gotta figure out the audience, you can tell us too, right in the comments. Yeah, we need some significance. What is the thing?

was the the representative, uh I think her last name is Salazar in the Miami area who was like she was like she wanted all the money for the immigration and ice and the wall. And last week we talked a little bit about it, but she was like she came out against all of that. So I think Actually, I wanna turn to our Our one show host that was a little more skeptical of our blue tsunami predictions. Where are we at this week, Zach?
I still don't think it's like a tsunami, but I think it's better. I think I think the Democrats have seen an a huge improvement in their chances. I just made a video about it, I just put it out this morning. Like it's all if you look at just the data, it's all diesel prices. That's the only thing that changed this course. Like it's the second diesel prices shot up.
