-- this is janet from florida off twitter, saying -- similar thoughts from randy in michigan, texting us -- so what is the pay like since the sixth, and what happens now? guest: former president trump is still a major player in the republican party, and rank and file republican voters are still very supportive of him, and they tend to agree with his take on the election, that the election was in some way flawed or worse than that. there has not been much sign, at least in the public polling, that that is changing. but, you know, he is not in office anymore. there is an opportunity for other republican elected officials to step forward and take a leadership role in the party. depending on what president trump decides to do in 2024, we could end up seeing some very big changes. so, you know, i think when you talk about a lot of these things, people do take a partisan position. certainly you have a large number of democrats, at least in some polling, who suggest that russia altered the vote totals in 2016. that was something for which there is no evidence, but a lot of people believed. there does tend to be questions where there is a lot of partisan polarization. people do take
