I don't think Trump is out of the woods, even though his poll numbers are not only staying up, they have actually been strengthened some.
He is a leader there's no question about that. But I think he's a bad leader. I think he's leaving his people into, he's leading the country, especially into a very bad place.
We're entering some kind of the most dangerous days of Donald Trump's presidency. He is erratic.
Sadly, you know, I think for a variety of reasons he should not. I just, I don't think either Trump or Biden should be running.
