One of the things that he -- one of the habits of Donald Trump is he doesn't tolerate prosperity very well, his own prosperity. And I think the lesson he's drawn from the last four years is he can get away with anything.
There's no doubt about that. But I also want to say this. You know, all presidents sort of feed off of perceptions of the person who came before and they want to position against what people found lacking in the person that came before.
I mean, he's president of the United States. He was elected. They should be there.
I think there's a lot of concern among Republican officeholders. Governor Pawlenty could speak more readily to this than me.
