Williams: Those are. The idea that Donald Trump launched an insurrection. These are things.
Conway: Where is that in the polls, Juan?
Williams: This drives democratic turnout. You saw what happened in 2020 when Trump was defeated by Joe Biden.
Conway: Thank you for admitting it’s why it was the closing message is to get turnout. Not make people feel better about how economically depressed they feel and single moms are struggling and single moms who have a job, one of the fastest growing new homeless groups in our country and it’s a disgrace…. 50% disapproval of Joe Biden oh every issue.
Williams: Joe Biden is moderate. Compared to Donald Trump.
Conway: Donald Trump, you are obsessed with him. It’s funny to watch, actually.
