Richard, which are the reasons who have not stood up yet, who served in the Trump Administration, who could actually make a difference in terms of persuading those very few, unpersuadable voters who are left . And do you expect any more of them to stand up between now and november . I mean, theres the former Vice President who has, shall we say, a certain physical and political incentive to stand up, given how he was do you think hes going to do it . No. Look, i think if people were going to stand up, theyve had now, shall we say, several years to do it. Several people simply have not. Disagree with me or not, but how much of a difference will it make . Its certainly not going to shake trumps base. Im not sure many of thes
