governor, they are not signed by a secretary of state. the officials that are involved in the election process were not behind this these efforts. this was coming at a time, though, where you have to remember donald trump was trying to hold on to power. he was calling governors. he was saying don't certify the elections and he had people who were around him saying, you know, states could seat this alternate slate of elect. obviously, that is extremely constitutionally questionable. that is not what happened but seems to be what some trump allies were getting at. what they actually got was a public relation stunt. >> wow, like diplomas from trump university. >> like me writing on this paper anderson cooper is the president and won michigan. >> sara murray, thank you. coming up next with the country bracing for peak omicron and cdc still trying to get its message straight on what kind of mask people should wear, we will talk to senator bernie sanders about his plan. later, the former president's latest hang up. what he said in his latest interview about 2024 and why he dropped the line almost in the question. carl, say hi to nina, our schwab financial consultant. hm... i know how difficult these calls can be.
