I think the whole reason why this vote came about was because of his, you know, dislike personally. Let's be honest about, you know, with McCarthy now. But it's interesting and ironic at the same time. So The vote was brought forward because then Speaker McCarthy worked with the Democrats across the aisle and did something bipartisan. And yet the vote to oust him, he joined a bipartisan group of folks to oust him. So I think that's one of the reasons why people are so disillusioned with Washington, DC, where oftentimes the politics dominate over people. (45:58–46:06)
