Are you thinking that Cuellar could be unseated because of these, these allegations or charges against him? You know, well, Senator Bob Menendez was, was, you know, only charged, convicted and know, serving sentence. So. And He had a lesser charge than Henry Cuellar. Bribery, embezzlement, laundry laundering, monies. And then, you know, representing a foreign entity, it almost mirrors what's happened down here. So representing foreign entities is okay, though. I mean, because Hunter Biden can do it and so it's not an issue. (19:34–19:42)
