like you think there needs to be some sort of moral challenge to this president? it s the moral case, craig. look, the policy is part of it but if you re going to think, you re going to challenge donald trump and talk about how he s increased the deficits he has, i m sorry, i agree with that, that s not going to carry the day. we ve i mean, craig, think about this. we ve never been in a position like this. where we have a president of the united states who virtually lies every time he opens his mouth. i m sorry. i don t care what your politics are. that s more important than the debt, the deficits and tariffs. this is a moral case against a man who is dividing this country personally, and in an ugly fashion. every single day. and craig, last thing i ll say. yeah. fox news last week came out with a poll. 59% of americans believe donald trump is tearing this country apart, their words. i mean, wake up, republicans.
