and cnn host who on tv makes my wife interested in the news van joins. thank you for joining us. why has ron desantis been able to connect with voters or rich donors no matter how hard he uses the power of his office to stop the downtrodden? >> i just think he is famous for being in a fight with mickey mouse and disney world, but he seems to be living in his own fantasyland where as long as he is able to rile up the fox news audience he can be president of the united states. the reality is he is not popular. he beats a walking corpse to become the governor in florida. he did not have stiff competition. he has been bragging on that. he does not do well one-on-one with people, and his policies are coming in oh, more popular probably in afghanistan then they are the united states. >> james: he could go after an even lower rung of society,

least of ageism, sexism, and unchecked political opportunism. those elder abusers are right, and it is also able us to insist you can't hold office just because you are ashes inside earth. >> it's also racist, since feinstein's skin turns blue everytime the temperature drops below 90 degrees. >> you never hear about joe biden's age except for in a poll saying nearly and seven in ten voters say that president biden is too old for another term. and more democrats agree than disagree with that assessment. i know that seems to prove voters don't want to be governed by leaders so old that they bruise when you breathed on them, but it actually proves that joe biden is a woman. >> can i say just one more thing? >> kylie: sure, but it cannot be about your. >> you are saying don't do this, missing out. >> kylie: i have to celebrate my sister's total bull shit nobel prize in chemistry, so
