and if you look at what the national education association, the largest teacher's union recommends to replace dr. seuss, you know, the prince who liked to cross dress at night, that's literally win of the stories, and you have to think, how does this fit with the average american vision? dr. seuss last year sold six million copies. last year alone, has sold, i think, 600 million worldwide. >> laura: newt, i have to ask you a question, let's say there was a christian family, a bunch of christian families in the midwest, maybe outside of kansas city and they don't like a book that's being taught in their elementary school because they think it pushes sexual agenda on the kids. and they complain saying, you know, that offends us, and offends our sensibility. when they ask for books to be removed what happened? they are called, what? >> sure. look. probably called bigots, but that's what the reaction will be against. i think what you're seeing is an absolute breakdown of the american people's belief that government is on their side. i think it's partly because of covid, because of shutdow
