favorable of years, there s not a lane forward for liz cheney. she happens not to be a very good retail campaigner. she s more of a policy wonk and a people person. she doesn t like pressing the flesh. if you know anything about iowa politics, iowa caucuses and new hampshire, it is intensive retail politics. people in iowa would expect to meet you two, three, four, five times before they decide on you as a candidate. liz cheney is just not that person. alyssa, if it s not a presidential run or, you know, even not a wholehearted presidential run thinking she d actually win but just wanting to try to, you know, stop the former president, what other lane would there be? i mean there s really none unless she s running for something, right? well, listen, i think running for office is something she should consider surely for that juxtaposition. but if not that, she s going to be a formidable voice for the country. i will say this.

democrats all the more worrisome, but you also seem to be pointing to something also known as a prerequisite. doctors have prerequisites. police and military have prerequisites. there is an idea that especially for a president, but even for higher office like the senate, there should be prerequisites. your point here is that the modern republican party doesn t, what, care enough about the difficulty of governing to apply prerequisites to candidates? that s exactly true. i mean, they don t want policy wonks. when is the last time ucould name a republican policy wonk? it s been quite a while since we had any kind of policy wonk type of candidate run for president or gain national office on the republican side. mitch mcconnell doesn t want policy wonks or people who are super knowledgeable about policy. those sorts of people are much harder to wrangle and lead. you know, and cast the votes that mitch mcconnell would like. the reality is that the
