Again the Associated Press, calling the states in dark blue and dark red, its the race to 2. 70 right joe biden much closer hes up to 2. 64 President Trump currently standing at 2. 14. And when you do the math. What do you need to get to 2. 70 if youre at to 64 6 and nevada here happens to have 6 electoral votes at stake and where do things stand right now joe biden currently leading President Trump.

Underestimate senator mcconnell and his ability to corral maybe as many as 20 republican senators who believe that we have a vshaped recovery which of course is what President Trump has been saying. Its the senate that we look to, i think all discussions between secretary mnuchin and Speaker Pelosi have not borne fruit. One of the things i think they havent borne fruit because the republicans simply are not in favor of giving the states money. Speaker flossy wants to give many different businesses and states money because they are all strapped will this matter to that i dont think so i wish it would, i mean, in business i think it would, but not in politics. I feel, david, when i look at these numbers and i look at whats happened to the president , of course, we wish him well, i think that somehow nothing comes together in washington that you would think. Theres not a kind of a sympathetic lets get together, lets stop the war of words. It just doesnt happen like that anymore. No. There
