they seem to like chum, but they don t want him to tell them how to go. this seems to be how it s going. so, the other race to watch in georgia is of course, the one for secretary of state. a true test of trump s endorsement power. he targeted because he refused to be pressured into overturning the election. so, how well trump endorsed candidate likely go up against roethlisberger. what are the ramifications for the state, and indeed the nation with this particular race? this race is indicative of something big and broad. and ominous, frankly, that is steaming toward the country is steaming towards it, almost like the titanic towards the icebergs on its maiden voyage. you have in georgia, one of many races. in fact, in virtually every state that is likely to decide the 2024 election, you have republicans running for positions of authority over the administration coming in the tabulation of that election,
to being the campaigner who suddenly finds herself on the inside, walking through the corridors of power? no, i think nothing has really changed in that kind of instance, in the fact that i still see these people that i can actually help, so whether i m sitting around the table with them or chasing them down the street, i think they are quite similar in that sense. but i will actually correct you, i m appointed by priti patel and not the prime minister. not directly. not directly the prime minister but directly by priti patel, and this was a position she asked me to take up. but i sense that the reason you are correcting me is that you have the problem that many people find in public life, which is people go, oh, she has only got the job because she is a chum of the prime minister. 100%. and as somebody that has kind fought my way in order to a voice and actually really, you know, believes in integrity and also democracy, it is something that i have worked for and it is something that
so whether i m sitting around the table with them or chasing them down the street, i think they are quite similar in that sense. but i will actually correct you, i m appointed by priti patel and not the prime minister. not directly. not directly the prime minister but directly by priti patel, and this was a position she asked me to take up. but i sense that the reason you are correcting me is that you have the problem that many people find in public life, which is people go, oh, she has only got the job because she is a chum of the prime minister. 100%. and as somebody that has kind fought my way in order to a voice and actually really, you know, believes in integrity and also democracy, it is something that i have worked for and it is something that the home secretary, when she said that she was going to do a violence against women and girls strategy, came to meet with, and i said i would be more than happy to do that, because ironically i do have this kind of space where i can to to
precincts are counted, mccormick will win those as well. anything can happen. this is an incredibly close race. the count continues. christen holmes, thank you. athena as well. our panel is with us in studio. i mentioned a critical count, and this happens. it s unfortunate when it happens, but you have memory card failures, misprinted ballots that have to be counted or double checked by hand. we have this all the time. one of the newer things, just like he did in his own races, donald trump is saying oz should declare victory. he should not. he should let democracy work. and so far it seems that both campaigns are basically ignoring trump doing what he typically does which is throwing chum in the water. it just highlights how fragile this whole thing is. remember, this is a republican base that has been hyped up on a lie for over a year now, and
on a server that had nothing whatsoever to do with donald trump. it is gratifying, i will grant you, that some indictments are being had, but the real people behind it, hillary clinton who engaged in a vast conspiracy to defraud the government with lies, and james comey whose malfeasance to spy on the chum campaign, those people will escape culpability which is a tragedy. and this is why, jason, americans are increasingly concerned about what is to be the framework of justice that certain people do get away with anything. this seems to be the corvette. you survive, you got out, brilliant decision. but when we think about all of this plus everything we have learned, it is a miracle that we have durham because this is the kind of thing would you agree
