I think there's a lot of concern among Republican officeholders. Governor Pawlenty could speak more readily to this than me.
I think Democrats would be very foolish to go all Marjorie Taylor Greene here and WWE stuff and so on. I think they should respond. But I don't think they should, you know, heckle and do the kinds of things that some have talked about.
I think the Democratic party has become too much of a cosmopolitan, college educated party. It still advocates for working people, but it doesn't really communicate with them very well.
If he does all of those things, God bless him, good for him and good for the country.
