window. we have mike lee saying that republican should not agree to any nominations or legislation with democrats until the conviction is overturned. >> there are so many issues on which republicans could leave. energy, the environment -- the forward thinking policy solutions that younger conservatives like me have long talked about. there is no space for that when the oxygen is sucked up by donald trump, 24/7. people have been disheartened. you and i both know how we look at politics being treated, it is simply through a partisan lens. because of that, you will not get newer people into the public square. therefore, those voices are missing. getting back to the ashes, getting to essentially a place where the rebuild is impossible. many people lost hope. i am one of them.
