Well, I'm not looking to fight with you, Pat, just to have a conversation and really to understand where you are at. Obviously, get well, sorry to hear you are sick. 

I thought that when you asked the question about getting played, it was going to be about something else. When FOX News had to pay almost a billion dollars to Dominion and were exposed for all the lies they told and that they were intentionally playing their viewers, I did wonder what you thought of that. 

I thought that or all the other bizarre lies the Republicans have been pumping out were your concern. Their lies have just become so huge and ridiculous, I figured it would start causing Republican voters to look elsewhere. I thought maybe that was where you were at.

I agree with Dan though, if you hear people babbling about "woke" stuff, that's an open con. It's just used as a trigger word. 

I am guessing you know that and don't think Dan and I want to kill babies, convert children to becoming transgender, or stomp out religion in this country. I mean, you've had to listen to us for 20 some years now and we've never displayed that kind of agenda have we?

Trump, DeSantis, FOX News, the lunatic wing of the Republican party...yeah, they want to play Republican voters. That's real and it has been exposed. They really want us at each other's throats, Pat. I would like that to end but really, I have no control over it. The Republican party is at war with itself, and they are destroying themselves. 

It's always an inside job, Pat. The issue for the Republican party is they have people inside the party that want to destroy it. It's working. Their presidential candidates are just the tip of the spear.
