00:04you know, I know some people who are
00:06really in the middle of a lot of this and
00:08was told that the the working the the working precept in the White House is
00:15He should Biden should not be doing any public events after 8 o'clock at night or even fundraising events
00:21Because he starts to meander his is not sorry
00:26How can you not demand this guy step down today then if that's the case well there are people it's not about the election
00:31I know everyone's in this election mode. He is what you're talking about. You're talking about the 25th Amendment
00:37Which was actually raised during Trump's tenure, right?
00:40But you're talking about the 25th Amendment, right?
00:42You can't only be you can't only be cognizant and functional at for six hours of the day. What about the other 18?
00:49yeah, but you know what the issue there is that right now the
00:52The turf war is over whether Biden becomes the nominee and
00:57To raise that now would so muddy the waters that that would probably never happen that they've you know
01:03If there's a focus, it's the focus is there right, right?
01:07It is interesting that the speech last night was at 745. What's that? So it was 745. Yeah
01:13I thought that was kind of interesting. It did kind of a line
01:16Although you know Biden did Biden didn't take any any questions from reporters. He read and he walked out
01:22But he spoke today also
01:24Briefly. Yeah, he was much better today to Charles
01:27I mean, he seemed to have energy but it but I think it's it's really in the day a prompter
01:31Yeah, exactly in that well, but it's it's it's also just look
01:34I mean, there are people like Bill Maher just wrote an editor an opinion piece for the New York Times yesterday saying, you know
01:40This is he's been a noble servant. This is the time to pass the torch
01:46So there is a lot of talk right now, you know, I you're gonna talk about yeah
01:51no, there's definitely that talk, but there's also a lot of talk that it's too late and that
01:57This is who they got to go with March 31st
02:001968 is the day Lyndon Johnson announced Wow that he would not seek or
02:05accept the nomination for presidency and run again March in 68 your recall on certain things is March 31st
02:141968 and Robert Kennedy had announced two weeks before March 16th and
02:19They had a convention they had
02:23Although they did have a couple of primaries which we're not having now, but it did happen. So there's precedent for it
