energy for trump and his supporters. since then, mcconnell hung up on trump on a phone call. joe biden is going to be certified as president before january 6th. the two have not spoken since. we have seen it and trump in his e-mail statements attacked mcconnell in some frequency that he should be pushed out with some republicans. that s not who mcconnell initially wanted. there is a real divide there and it does seem mcconnell expecting more bad news coming out for trump because of the january 6th committee, he wants to chris
elections day in and day out like we had when he was on twitter. gavin newsom, republican opponent certainly embraced trump. that race ended up not being close at all and there is a limit to how much polling has been done here. there is a lot we don t know about this race and we don t know what the margins are going to be. that s about as far as we can get on that. you make a good point there. trump has receded some what, he sless of this ominous threat to decolor everything about an election. of course he s still there. his e-mail statements go out but they don t have the traction like before. they do think that could be something good for them. trump being off stage is
