on the question of the legitimacy of democratic rule and the election of joe biden. there is no better example of how that has happened right now than in the state of nevada. you might remember this guy, although i don't blame you don't. his name is dean heller, he spent his entire career in nevada politics, republican politics. and in 2011, he was rewarded for his service with an appointment to a vacant senate seat. that's a great thing to get the, okay? when you get appointments to a vacant seat. and he narrowly won a full term in 2012 as an incumbent. and he proceeded to act in the senate as a purple state republican senator. overall, his tenor was mostly unremarkable and grading on the curve of members that the republican party in congress, i would say he didn't do much to either celebrate or be especially offended by. kind of your ultimate weather vane. in 2016, when donald trump was warning for president, heller said that he was a vehemently opposed to his candidacy.
