1
00:00:00,501 --> 00:00:00,801
I'm curious.

2
00:00:00,868 --> 00:00:01,502
Anya. They.

3
00:00:01,568 --> 00:00:02,769
The both parties, we said

4
00:00:02,836 --> 00:00:04,071
gave money to the candidates.

5
00:00:04,137 --> 00:00:05,339
Democrats gave more.

6
00:00:05,405 --> 00:00:06,139
But in the past,

7
00:00:06,206 --> 00:00:08,575
they've given a lot more.

8
00:00:08,642 --> 00:00:09,376
What can we read into

9
00:00:09,443 --> 00:00:10,010
the fact

10
00:00:10,077 --> 00:00:10,978
that they're deciding

11
00:00:11,044 --> 00:00:12,379
to not deem

12
00:00:12,446 --> 00:00:13,080
this the election

13
00:00:13,146 --> 00:00:14,448
of all elections and pouring

14
00:00:14,515 --> 00:00:15,782
all resources into it

15
00:00:15,849 --> 00:00:16,950
the way that they did in the

16
00:00:17,017 --> 00:00:17,384
to say

17
00:00:17,451 --> 00:00:18,018
it's race

18
00:00:18,085 --> 00:00:18,752
or the Crawford race?

19
00:00:18,819 --> 00:00:19,720
Yeah.

20
00:00:19,786 --> 00:00:20,153
we are used to kind

21
00:00:20,220 --> 00:00:20,754
of hearing

22
00:00:20,821 --> 00:00:21,555
that level of language

23
00:00:21,622 --> 00:00:22,089
around

24
00:00:22,155 --> 00:00:22,723
both the Supreme

25
00:00:22,789 --> 00:00:23,357
Court elections

26
00:00:23,423 --> 00:00:24,458
and then also various

27
00:00:24,525 --> 00:00:25,492
national elections.

28
00:00:25,559 --> 00:00:26,159
Every elections

29
00:00:26,226 --> 00:00:27,027
and most important of our.

30
00:00:27,094 --> 00:00:27,861
Lives. Exactly.

31
00:00:27,928 --> 00:00:29,129
But this one, November,

32
00:00:29,196 --> 00:00:30,063
is actually probably

33
00:00:30,130 --> 00:00:30,831
the most important

34
00:00:30,898 --> 00:00:31,565
of our lives.

35
00:00:31,632 --> 00:00:32,499
And maybe the Democrats

36
00:00:32,566 --> 00:00:33,367
want to kind of keep

37
00:00:33,433 --> 00:00:35,068
that, messaging

38
00:00:35,135 --> 00:00:36,003
for the midterms.

39
00:00:36,069 --> 00:00:37,304
And so kind of stepping back

40
00:00:37,371 --> 00:00:37,838
and maybe they're

41
00:00:37,905 --> 00:00:38,639
really confident

42
00:00:38,705 --> 00:00:39,606
about their contender

43
00:00:39,673 --> 00:00:40,340
this time.

44
00:00:40,407 --> 00:00:41,408
The stakes are not as high.

45
00:00:41,475 --> 00:00:42,209
Liberals will hold

46
00:00:42,276 --> 00:00:42,809
the majority

47
00:00:42,876 --> 00:00:43,644
no matter who wins.

48
00:00:43,710 --> 00:00:45,078
And so why not kind of

49
00:00:45,145 --> 00:00:46,079
keep those resources

50
00:00:46,146 --> 00:00:47,414
in the bank for November?

51
00:00:47,481 --> 00:00:48,282
Zac, you described it

52
00:00:48,348 --> 00:00:48,916
as kind of,

53
00:00:48,982 --> 00:00:50,050
they're making a bet.

54
00:00:50,117 --> 00:00:51,151
Essentially.

55
00:00:51,218 --> 00:00:51,652
They're they're

56
00:00:51,718 --> 00:00:52,252
hedging their

57
00:00:52,319 --> 00:00:52,886
bet that they don't

58
00:00:52,953 --> 00:00:53,620
have to invest any more

59
00:00:53,687 --> 00:00:55,122
to secure this win.

60
00:00:55,189 --> 00:00:55,822
I think

61
00:00:55,889 --> 00:00:57,090
you point out perfectly that

62
00:00:57,157 --> 00:00:58,292
even if they lose the hedge

63
00:00:58,358 --> 00:00:59,593
on that bet, somehow

64
00:00:59,660 --> 00:01:00,460
they still maintain

65
00:01:00,527 --> 00:01:01,795
the majority that you put.

66
00:01:01,862 --> 00:01:02,362
The incentives

67
00:01:02,429 --> 00:01:02,829
aren't as high,

68
00:01:02,896 --> 00:01:03,530
and seeing

69
00:01:03,597 --> 00:01:04,665
the incumbent Republicans

70
00:01:04,731 --> 00:01:05,866
or conservatives

71
00:01:05,933 --> 00:01:07,100
leave this race repeatedly

72
00:01:07,167 --> 00:01:07,734
shows they don't

73
00:01:07,801 --> 00:01:10,137
believe the same either.
