the die ben administration and the democratic party is premature to say the least and basically kind of crazy because democrats are the only same political party doing anything right now. republicans are doing nothing but trying to reek power and pledging to donald trump. they re not even participaing to the governor. democrats are only the one getting it downright now. jean, you know on covid cases you are right. covid cases are going down. it also helps if politicians and biden administration had talked about trends that in the summer, cases go up and places like florida, texas, and arizona takes special care there. as we have been saying on the show for some time, cases are going up in the fall and the northeast. the midwest, you will see wisconsin and michigan and
pennsylvania, you will see those numbers go up. tell people what s coming and explain why it s coming. it s seasonable at times. there was and i want to read to you quickly. it s a great companion piece to your op-ed piece by your colleague and michael gerston who writes this and caught my eyes. unified republicans control of the house of reelected of donald trump in 2025 is the likely outcome. i am siding with you here and i respectfully disagree. i understand why so many people are shattered especially republicans who can t believe their party has become what their party has become. here is the thing. we are talking about focus groups. i saw another focus groups in
