Meine Vorstellung von dem, was die Welt ist, ist so geformt von diesen Dingen, dass ich nicht mal so nahe bin, was eigentlich passiert ist.

I mean, isn't that a little bit of reverse engineering, though? I think that's what every election is. Well, it probably is. And if that's true, then we have a bunch of things to rethink. Because in a sense, it kind of looked like, well, Oprah, Taylor Swift, all these people, they endorsed Harris. Nobody cared. Didn't seem to have any influence.

But you just said that you think that Tim going on Rogan was one of the biggest things, like Rogans endorsement mattered. It only because it worked out that way. I don't think any of these endorsements mattered. I now think that basically any Republican candidate would have won this election. I think that if Nikki Haley would have ran, I think she would have won probably by a very similar margin.

I think that there is the sense now that there's all this news going around kind of shifting these stories. Like you say, these stories like, oh, there's, you know, people are canvassing and women are closing the door saying, I'm secretly voting for Harris, I'm not voting for my husband.

Now it kind of looks like maybe the opposite of this was the case, that people were saying they were going to vote for Harris because they didn't want to be maybe judged or have an issue with their friends who they thought were like it was actually they were saying the opposite of what this supposed sort of trend, you know, because hours before the election, you could go on social media and there were people saying things like, what if I told you this isn't going to be close at all?

thinking that it was going to be a blowout in the other direction. So no one really had any sense of these things.

You know, 1992 is a particularly strange case, though, because, okay, so Bush is popular prior to the runner of the election and actually becomes sort of more popular again after he loses it. It's just this window of time. He became extraordinarily unpopular. The third-party candidate of, you know, of Perot getting like 19% of the vote that way.
