jennifer, you had written maybe a week ago you and i were talking about, this you wrote this maga stuff is actually dead. the stuff that donald trump is doing is not going to have life that s sustains for the next two years. i think what i said is his campaign and donald trump has reached an inflection point, and i agree with melissa that donald trump as a figure has become less and less effective, and less and less powerful within the party. my concern is that the trump -ism is going to be long held in the republican party long after trump is gone. and the problem of an authoritarian white christian nationals party is going to remain. but i do think trump has been weakened quite a bit. listen, the prosecutors in various states are closing in on him. i think he s going to spend more time in courtrooms next year than on the campaign trail. stuart, i have to say it was a low before the show started where we got the kari lake news. and on one hand it s like,

the runoff election. i think you sort of look at these images and these videos of voters standing in line, sometimes two hours, the line wrapping around the block and you can either say, thank goodness voters are amazing, you go, i m so excited people are fired up about democracy and you can say it is not supposed to be this way right? it s not supposed to take this much time to perform your civic duty. your sense of what you make of how georgia voters have responded over the last week? for us thank you for having me on this evening alicia, specially alongside adrian really excited about it and i really want to sort of my commentary by rejecting the permits as something that hill said about brian kemp. rejecting trump-ism, wholeheartedly. or the law is a trump said about the election and it s not true. we have espy two or two, the legislation you are referencing right now as a response to the big lie that was propagated post january the 5th. and everything that happened on
