  Speaker 1: It's a couple of hundred senior citizens that are friendly

• 1:11
  Speaker 2: we haven't had any real good polls. We've had all
• 1:13

• 1:20
  Speaker 2: serious pollsters, the John McLaughlin's, but none of them have
• 1:24

  Speaker 4: AOC and Bernie, they're like keeping people to be caterpillars
• 1:53
  Speaker 4: instead of letting them to be butterflies.
