I think it's very clear that the President can have great influence on the states. You know, he issued guidelines, CDC issued guidelines, blessed by the President, and they did have an effect, but they were not orders.
the way that Donald Trump is responding to the pandemic is, I think is, they are giving him a lot of rope on the Democratic side and he is increasingly hanging himself.
I do think, John, increasingly, it becomes apparent that before people go to the polls on November 3rd, both Biden and Trump must come forward with their health records.
I think it's something that's spontaneous. It's happening in the country where just tons and tons of people are coming out because they feel that democracy is at stake that we're in real trouble here.
