him to center stage. i have a vivek answer, a glib-like answer. everything has become like reality tv. this is how we ended up with the guy saying you re fired . he s a kardashian. there s no accountability in politics, right? he can say whatever he wants and if he said something different the day before, no one cares because he s there and he believes he s entertaining you in the moment. and he s entertaining you, exactly, in the moment. he told everyone some voters did want to see some toughness. look what happened. a lot of times candidates want to tell us, nobody asked us about trump on the trail. here s tim scott on the trail being asked by a republican about donald trump. watch this. do not stand toe to toe with somebody that you don t accept in president. we disagree on the foundation of the premise of the question, and the premise of the question is why don t you stand up to trump? i never heard you i didn t hear you the other night say that. i can t
read the law. turns out those civil service protections only apply to individual firings, not to mass layoffs. mass layoffs are absolutely what i will bring to the dc bureaucracy, and i think the fact that i am from a different generation, chuck, will be an asset. i am able to reach young americans. i am able to reach people who haven t traditionally been brought into the mold of republican politics. i don t even talk about republicans and democrats, and so i think i ll be able to build a greater moral mandate across generations that helps unite americans around the america first agenda rather than make it a strictly partisan affair. let me bring up a question that you didn t get to answer. most said mike pence did the right thing on january 6th. do you agree? i would have done it very differently. i think there was a historic opportunity that he missed to reunite this country. this is a moment for a true national consensus where there are two elements of what s required for a func
