| 0:33.9 | at least in favor of the nominee, if the nominee is qualified, which presumably the nominee will be. Now, even Lisa Murkowski, the senator from Alaska, she is apparently giving signs that she may vote for the nominee, because I haven't seen the nominee yet, but if I see the nominee and the nominee is qualified, not sure why I shouldn't vote for that nominee, which leaves only Susan Collins in vulnerable state in Maine as the lone Republican who would not vote for a Trump |
| 0:54.7 | nominee, which means that whoever Trump nominates is likely to pass with flying at colors. |
| 0:59.4 | President Trump signaled his pleasure with this yesterday. |
| 1:01.9 | He praised Mitt Romney. |
| 1:03.1 | So Mitt Romney has this very weird career where he goes from being good to bad and bad |
| 1:06.8 | to good and good to bad for everybody. |
| 1:08.5 | Now he is on Trump's good side. |
| 1:10.2 | Honestly, I've always been relatively warm toward Mitt Romney. I think that Romney is an honest guy, even when I disagreed with a lot of the stuff he was doing, including how he voted on impeachment. I was not quite as sure as some other people on the conservative side word that Romney was going to say that he wasn't going to vote on this nominee. I just thought that that would be a career ender for him, and it would be immoral to |
| 1:29.5 | boot. Here was Trump praising Mitt Romney, the senator from Utah yesterday. |
| 1:33.7 | We have great support from the Republican Party, tremendous support. It's never been this |
| 1:38.5 | unified before, ever, ever. In the fake impeachment, we had 196 to nothing Republican support, and we had a hundred and ninety six to nothing republican support and we had |
| 1:47.6 | 52 and a half to a half in the senate who was the half i can't imagine i can't but he was very good today |
| 1:55.1 | i have to tell you it's good now i'm happy thank you you, Mitt. Thank you. |
| 2:19.3 | Okay, that's a little bit funny. By the way, some of this seems to be having a little bit of an effect in state polls. There are a couple of new polls out today from ABC News that show Trump up slightly in Arizona, which would be a move. That would be a real move in the polls for Trump. Shows him up 49-48 over Joe Biden in Arizona. It also shows him up 51 to 47 over Joe Biden in Florida, |
| 2:23.7 | which puts Trump much closer toward a path to reelection. I think everybody was sort of assuming that Arizona had escaped Trump come 2020's election. Meanwhile, the late-night hosts are winding. |
| 2:29.5 | You can always tell where the emotional center of the Democratic Party base is simply by looking |
