adline was that the hosts of an ABC show, new show with Stephanopoulos, the hosts were shocked to learn that the polling for the president, if it were Biden versus Trump, is close. They were shocked to learn that given all we know, the results are still close. And I thought, wow, I certainly agree with CNN on this. It is. How are they going to explain that one of the candidates is cognitively gone and has conclusively been proven to be part of a criminal enterprise?
