days he would start out with his inspirational story about how anybody can make it in America. You know, like a real classic American success story kind of thing. And to many Republicans he looked like the antidote to the racial wokeness. It's like, oh yeah, that's it. You did all the right things and then you got a good outcome. And indeed we see over and over again that pretty much everybody who does all the right things gets a pretty good outcome. So it was a great story. But it turned out he didn't have much else. I mean, he had policies, but they didn't stand out as, oh, Tim Scott's got this wild policy. We better talk about him. His policies were also generically Republican. That in the end all he had was his story. And then it became, I hate to say it, but it started to get pathetic that the best he could do is go back to the story. It's a good story, a great story, really a great American story, but didn't have enough. Just didn't have the juice. So I think he made the right choice to get out.

About who's getting in. So you remember the QAnon Shaman, Jacob Chansley, who wore the bison hat and got arrested and he was in jail for a long time for January 6. He is going to run for Congress as a Libertarian in Arizona. Hello. Now if he's a Libertarian, that means he's running against a Republican, right, as well as a Democrat, I assume. So I don't know what his odds are. But he is the Nelson Mandela of our time. I'm just saying that so people can get mad. That was intentionally stated to make you angry. What? There's no way you can compare him to Nelson Mandela. I know. That's why it's funny. He's a poor man's Nelson Mandela. But I do like the idea of if you get locked up for reasons which the public seems to think are inadequate, that you can use that to launch a campaign. Honestly, I would vote for him. Like, not a joke. If I were in Arizona, I'd probably vote for him over a Republican, honestly. Because I didn't see any Republicans get anybody out of jail. Did you? Did you see the Republicans fighting very hard to get January 6ers out of jail? Him, if I were him, I'd say, I'm going to run as a Libertarian. And I would vote for him because I don't know what qualities are for the job, but it's sort of a statement, right? If you're going to lock somebody up, you better get it right. You know, it's sort of one of those, if you come for the king — he's not exactly the king — but if you come for him and you miss, you might get you
