fallback candidate. conservatives are pushing back hard. talked favorably raising carbon taxes in in favor legalizing undocumented and don t want him chief of staff. what does the president do? let this keep twisting in the wind? it s possible, we ve seen it before. this could sort of be another moment where we all think this is going to happen and it doesn t. it does feel like this is a little different, but the problem is, as you pointed out, the language isn t really the problem. i mean, senator mccain has salty language. a lot of politicians we ve covered talk that way. certainly had that in background conversations. the problem is the actual dysfunction. this white house doesn t run the processes that have to run to get stuff done. whether national security process, to respond to north korea. whether it s domestic a domestic, you know, step by step organizing your white house to get something done. and sort of the language that
